+udev 175
+========
+The default install location moved from /lib/udev to /usr/lib/udev,
+to support systems without the / vs. /usr split. --libexecdir=
+can still be configured to install things to /lib/udev.
+
+The default install location of the 'udevadm' tool moved from 'sbin'
+to /usr/bin. --bindir= can still be configured to install it in
+/sbin. Some tools expect udevadm in 'sbin'. A symlink to udevadm
+in /usr/bin needs to be manually created if needed.
+
+Kernel modules are now loaded directly by linking udev to 'libkmod'.
+The /sbin/modprobe tool is no longer executed by udev.
+
+The /sbin/blkid tool is no longer executed from udev rules. Udev links
+directly to libblkid now.
+
+The 'udevadm control --reload-rules' option has been renamed to '--reload'.
+It reloads the kernel module configuration.
+
+The systemd socket files use PassCred=yes, which requires systemd
+version 38.
+
+The udev build system only creates a .xz tarball now.

+udev 174
+========
+Bugfixes.
+
+The udev daemon moved to /lib/udev/udevd. Non-systemd init systems
+and non-dracut initramfs image generators need to change the init
+scripts. Alternatively the udev build needs to move udevd back to
+/sbin or create a symlink in /sbin, which is not done by default.
+
+The path_id, usb_id, input_id tools are built-in commands now and
+the stand-alone tools do not exist anymore. Static lists of file in
+initramfs generators need to be updated. For testing, the commands
+can still be executed standalone with 'udevadm test-builtin <cmd>'.
+
+The fusectl filesystem is no longer mounted directly from udev.
+Systemd systems will take care of mounting fusectl and configfs
+now. Non-systemd systems need to ship their own rule if they
+need these filesystems auto-mounted.
+
+The long deprecated keys: SYSFS=, ID=, BUS= have been removed.
+
+The support for 'udevadm trigger --type=failed, and the
+RUN{fail_event_on_error} attribute was removed.
+
+The udev control socket is now created in /run/udev/control
+and no longer as an abstract namespace one.
+
+The rules to create persistent network interface and cdrom link
+rules automatically in /etc/udev/rules.d/ have been disabled by
+default. Explicit configuration will be required for these use
+cases, udev will no longer try to write any persistent system
+configuration from a device hotplug path.
