These things would be nice to have:
-
+ o get all distros to agree on a default set of rules
+ o rework rules to a match-action list, instead of a rules array
These things will change in future udev versions:
- o warn if BUS, ID, SYSFS are used as keys
- (they are SUBSYSTEMS, KERNELS, ATTRS now)
-
-
-These things are deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future
-udev version:
- o remove udevstart
- (we rely on the kernel "uevent"-triggers of kernel 2.6.15 and no longer
- want to guess event-properties from sysfs like udevstart is doing it)
- o remove man page symlinks for old tool names
+These things are deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future udev version:
+ o DEVTYPE for disks is set by the kernel, remove it from the rules
+ o "udevadm control" commands will only accept the --<command> syntax
+ o symlink names to udevadm will no longer be resolved to old command names
- o some day, remove the symlinks to udevadm
