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 man page symlinks for old tool names
-
- o some day, remove the symlinks to udevadm
+ o log warning if the kernel uses CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED*=y,
+ which means that /sys/class/block/ does not exist
+ o DEVTYPE for disks is set by the kernel, they will be removed from
+ the default 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
+
+before next release:
+ o replace list.h with gpl or later version
+ o increase ressize buffer
