man: boilerplate unification
systemd-hwdb: introduce new tool This pulls out the hwdb managment from udevadm into an independent tool. The old code is left in place for backwards compatibility, and easy of testing, but all documentation is dropped to encourage use of the new tool instead.
udevadm trigger: allow matching by device name This makes udevadm trigger mirror udevadm info, except that multiple device names can be specified. Instructions in 60-keyboard.hwdb should now actually work. udevadm(8) is updated, but it could use a bit more polishing. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82311
man: add emacs header to get correct indention in nxml-mode for the manpage XML files that use 2ch indenting In the long run we really should figure out if we want to stick with 8ch or 2ch indenting, and not continue with half-and-half. For now, just make emacs aware of the files that use 2ch indenting.
man: describe all log levels in udevadm(8) https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85657
udev hwdb: Support shipping pre-compiled database in system images In some cases it is preferable to ship system images with a pre-generated binary hwdb database, to avoid having to build it at runtime, avoid shipping the source hwdb files, or avoid storing large binary files in /etc. So if hwdb.bin does not exist in /etc/udev/, fall back to looking for it in UDEVLIBEXECDIR. This keeps the possibility to add files to /etc/udev/hwdb.d/ and re-generating the database which trumps the one in /usr/lib. Add a new --usr flag to "udevadm hwdb --update" which puts the database into UDEVLIBEXECDIR. Adjust systemd-udev-hwdb-update.service to not generate the file in /etc if we already have it in /usr.
man: add udev.conf(5) We generally have separate man pages for all configuration files. In this case udev.conf was already described in systemd-udevd.service(8), but it was hard to find. Docbook makes it hard to add a .so link from a different section, so describe udev.conf in its own page.
udev: remove seqnum API and all assumptions about seqnums The way the kernel namespaces have been implemented breaks assumptions udev made regarding uevent sequence numbers. Creating devices in a namespace "steals" uevents and its sequence numbers from the host. It confuses the "udevadmin settle" logic, which might block until util a timeout is reached, even when no uevent is pending. Remove any assumptions about sequence numbers and deprecate libudev's API exposing these numbers; none of that can reliably be used anymore when namespaces are involved.
man: add missing comma marcosf0> missing comma in udevadm "see also" section
man: replace STDOUT with standard output, etc. Actually 'STDOUT' is something that doesn't appear anywhere: in the stdlib we have 'stdin', and there's only the constant STDOUT_FILENO, so there's no reason to use capitals. When refering to code, STDOUT/STDOUT/STDERR are replaced with stdin/stdout/stderr, and in other places they are replaced with normal phrases like standard output, etc.
man: fix grammatical errors and other formatting issues * standardize capitalization of STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR * reword some sentences for clarity * reflow some very long lines to be shorter than ~80 characters * add some missing <literal>, <constant>, <varname>, <option>, and <filename> tags
man: document fail/nofail, auto/noauto Also s/filesystem/file system/ in a few places.
udevadm,scsi_id: add short options to help strings and to the man page Also clean things up a bit here and there.
man: wording and grammar updates This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous comma placement fixes…
man: add more markup to udevadm(8)
udevadm.xml: document --resolve-names option for test And remove documentation of the --subsystem flag which doesn't actually exist.
udev: udevadm hwdb - add --root= https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60398
man: fix some typos
hwdb: revert hwdb.bin back to /etc/udev > Kay: udev is early boot without /var. /var is entirely taboo for udev. This partially reverts commit ee623f0d0c04a9c8da4953ddc29862c8c4945458 (moving hwdb.bin is reverted, but the uninstall hook and cosmetic changes remain).
