-These things would be nice to have:
- o 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
-
-These things will change in future udev versions:
- o make DRIVER== to match only the event device
- (DRIVERS must be used, we currently translate it to DRIVERS and print
- a warning if DRIVER is used)
-
- 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 old udevdb dump 'udevinfo -d'
- (-e exports everything)
-
- 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 extra for /etc/dev.d/ /etc/hotplug.d/
- (that inefficient stuff should finally go away)
+ o enumerate() - add buses and drivers
+ o increase ressize buffer
+
+ o add DVB variables to kernel, and drop shell script rule
+ o add watershed extra
+ 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
+ o log warning if the kernel uses CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED*=y,
+ which means that /sys/class/block/ does not exist, but udev
+ will depend on it in a future release
+ 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
