-This is a list of things that needs to be done. They are in no specific
-order. We will gladly accept patches for any of these items:
-- Completely replace the built-in wait_for_sysfs stuff in udev_sysfs.c
- by rules using the WAIT_FOR_SYSFS key.
-
-- Log the relationship of the kernel name and the persistent disk name
- to syslog, so any error logged from the kernel can be associated with
- any of the links at that time.
+ o drop support for node names in name stack, support only symlinks
+ With well defined and kernel-supplied node names, we no longer need
+ to support a possible stack of conflicting symlinks and node names.
+ From there on, only symlinks with identical names can be claimed
+ by multiple devices. It will simplify the logic a lot and shrink
+ /dev/.udev/names/ significantly. Also exclude "*/MAJ:MIN" link names
+ from the name stack, they can not conflict.
+ o remove most NAME= rules (they are provided by the 2.6.31 kernel)
+ o get rid of braindead "scan all devices to find myself" libusb interface
+ if it can not be fixed, drop libusb entirely
+ o convert firmware.sh to C
+ o symlink names to udevadm will no longer be resolved to old command names
+ o "udevadm control" commands will only accept the --<command> syntax
+ o drop all support for the DEPRECATED sysfs layout
+ o add warning for BUS, SYSFS, ID
