It can speak +SGv4 now, so /dev/bsg/* device nodes can be used, to query SCSI device +data, which should solve some old problems with tape devices, where +we better do not open all tape device nodes to identify the device. + +udev 121 +======== +Many bugfixes. + +The cdrom_id program is replaced by an advanced version, which can +detect most common device types, and also properties of the inserted +media. This is part of moving some basic functionality from HAL into +udev (and the kernel). + +udev 120 +======== +Bugfixes. + +The last WAIT_FOR_SYSFS rule is removed from the default rules. + +The symlinks to udevadm for the debugging tools: udevmonitor and +udevtest are no longer created. + +The symlinks to the udevadm man page for the old tool names are +no longer created. + +Abstract namespace sockets paths in RUN+="socket:@" rules, +should be prefixed with '@' to indicate that the path is not a +real file. + +udev 119 +======== +Bugfixes. + +udev 118 +======== +Bugfixes. + +Udevstart is removed from the tree, it did not get installed for +a long time now, and is long replaced by trigger and settle. + +udev 117 +======== +Bugfixes. + +All udev tools are merged into a single binary called udevadm. +The old names of the tools are built-in commands in udevadm now. +Symlinks to udevadm, with the names of the old tools, provide +the same functionality as the standalone tools. There is also +only a single udevadm.8 man page left for all tools. + +Tools like mkinitramfs should be checked, if they need to include +udevadm in the list of files. + +udev 116 +======== +Bugfixes. + +udev 115 +======== +Bugfixes. + +The etc/udev/rules.d/ directory now contains a default set of basic +udev rules. This initial version is the result of a rules file merge +of Fedora and openSUSE. For these both distros only a few specific +rules are left in their own file, named after the distro. Rules which +are optionally installed, because they are only valid for a specific +architecture, or rules for subsystems which are not always used are +in etc/udev/packages/. + udev 114 ======== Bugfixes.
