They are in no specific -order. I will gladly accept patches for any of these items, or any other stuff -people offer up. +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 -greg k-h -greg@kroah.com +These things will change in future udev versions: + 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 -- syntax + o symlink names to udevadm will no longer be resolved to old command names - -- fix kernel name logic to handle devices like sdaj and such. -- more documentation (can never have too much.) -- better partition support (it's a hack right now, maybe new libsysfs changes - can help out a lot here.) -- allow database to be queried by other programs -- split program into two pieces (daemon and helper that sends events to it). - This will allow us to keep track of sequences, and lots of other needed - stuff. -- keep track of current permissions on devices when daemon shuts down. -- better permission handling -- create kernel name to devfs name config file so that all of the devfs users - will have an upgrade path. -- do early boot logic (putting udev into initramfs, handle pivot-root, - etc.) -- lots of other stuff... -- actually use the BUS= value to determine where the LABEL rule should look - (right now it's ignored, and we only look in the current sysfs directory.) - This is needed, for example, to look at the usb device's serial number of a - usb-storage device, instead of the scsi device's sysfs directory for the - serial number.
