This is a short list of things that needs to be done. They are in no specific
|
|
order. I will gladly accept patches for any of these items, or any other stuff
|
|
people offer up.

|
- 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.
