We will gladly accept patches for any of these items: - Greg Kroah-Hartman +- More documentation: + Allmost all extras/*_id/ programs don't have a man page + some details are missing in the udev man pages. +- 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. + +- Do generic early boot logic: + initramfs, pivot-root, cover coldplug or event replay, etc... + +- Keep the distro rules in etc/ up-to-date. -- more documentation (can never have too much.) -- document the config file format (it will change over time...) -- add proper man page -- add klibc to the build process (or make it easier to do) to get - smaller binary -- import latest libsysfs and convert udev to use it. -- On remove, look up the device in the database (now that we have one) and - delete what was created, not what the kernel is calling the device. -- add symlink generation and removal support -- 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. -- make program work like design says it should (three parts, not 1) -- add hooks to call D-BUS when new node is created or removed -- lots of other stuff...
