The need to wait for sysfs files is almost fixed with a kernel +version that doesn't work with this udev version anyway. Until we fix +the timing of the "bus" link creation, the former integrated logic should +be emulated by a rule placed before all other rules: + ACTION=="add", DEVPATH=="/devices/*", ENV{PHYSDEVBUS}=="?*", WAIT_FOR_SYSFS="bus" + +udev 075 +======== +Silent a too verbose error logging for the old hotplug.d/ dev.d/ +emulation. + +The copy of klibc is removed. A systemwide installed version of klibc +should be used to build a klibc udev now. + +udev 074 +======== +NAME="" will not create any nodes, but execute RUN keys. To completely +ignore an event the OPTION "ignore_device" should be used. + +After removal of the reorder queue, events with a TIMEOUT can be executed +without any queuing now. + +udev 073 +======== +Fixed bug in udevd, if inotify is not available. We depend on netlink +uevents now, kernels without that event source will not work with that +version of udev anymore. + +udev 072 +======== +The rule parsing happens now in the daemon once at startup, all udev +event processes inherit the already parsed rules from the daemon. +It is shipped with SUSE10.0 and reduces heavily the system load at +startup. The option to save precompiled rules and let the udev process +pick the them up is removed, as it's no longer needed. + +Kernel 2.6.15 will have symlinks at /class/input pointing to the real +device. Libsysfs is changed to "translate" the requested link into the +real device path, as it would happen with the hotplug event. Otherwise +device removal and the udev database will not work. + +Using 'make STRIPCMD=' will leave the binaries unstripped for debugging +and packaging. + +A few improvements for vol_id, the filesytem probing code. + udev 071 ======== Fix a stupid typo in extras/run_directory for "make install".
