Here is a update, which supports iso9660 and udf labels.
Not very useful in the udev case, but I've added it for hal,
so we just catch up with the latest version.
here is a small udev toy, which enables udev to name partitions by
its filesystem label or uuid's.
The following udev rule:
KERNEL="sd*", PROGRAM="/sbin/udev_volume_id -M%M -m%m -u", SYMLINK="%c"
creates a symlink with the uuid read from the filesystem. If no label or
uuid is found the program exits with nonzero and the rule will fail.
ext2, ext3, reiserfs, xfs, jfs, vfat, msdos volume labels are supported,
ntfs and swap partitions can be recognized.
It's possible to compile with klibc and the static binary takes 13kb.
Here we catch up, after the default config changes.
o the man page is updated to reflect the new default config
o /etc/udev/rules.d/ + permissions.d/ dirs are created now
o udev.rules is installed in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules
so the user can easily order the files by prepending a number.
(RedHat has the same name in the last rpm.)
o defined directory names in the Makefile are all without slashes now,
not the first half with and the remaining without.
o all binaries are uninstalled now
o leading slashes in config values are now removed or prepended while the
config is parsed, so we are more robust if the usere changes something.
o replaced the macros from udev_config.c with real code, cause we can
skip if the value matches and not useless iterate over the remaining
fields.
o config parsing errors are logged with info() now, fixes the bug where
we report a error with debug_parse(), even when there isn't one
Sorry for the late email regarding the gcov code coverage information
for udev. For those of you who have not yet noticed, udev can now be
compiled with gcov support and provide code coverage analysis. All
pertinent scripts and information can be found in the udev tree. Please
refer to "README-gcov_for_udev" for detailed information on compiling
gcov into udev and obtaining code coverage analysis. I've enclosed a
patch that updates the README-gcov_for_udev. Also, "udev-test.pl" in
udev/test/ was expanded to test symlinks, permissions, and some lack of
node creation a little more thoroughly. All comments and feedback would
be greatly welcomed. Also, any extra testing would be appreciated.
Thanks,

The tests are all successful now.
If this patch breaks something else, we simply have too few tests :)
Here is the fix for extras/seliux/*
o install the binary in /sbin/
o add symlink to /etc/dev.d/ with suffix .dev
o removed the undefined udev_log variable
o fixed compiler warnings
Here's an update for the writing udev rules document.
- Minor corrections/clarifications
- Added info about using NAME{all_partitions}
- Added more info about udevinfo, simplifying the rule-writing process
You can ignore the diff I sent you yesterday - according to the 20040415 bk
snapshot on codemonkey.org, you haven't applied it yet. This patch
incorporates that update, and some other changes I just made.
Thanks to Yin, Hu <hu.yin@intel.com>, who made a nice perl script to test the
expected behavior of the udevd sequence number handling. The test sends
different SEQNUM sequences to udevd, while analyzing the reordering and timeout
handling of udevd.

Here we install the binary in /usr/sbin/ and symlink it to
/etc/dev.d/ with the .dev suffix.
It seems that the transition from DEVNODE to DEVNAME wasn't done
everywhere. This broke udev_dbus for me.
Attached patch does the transition in the places it wasn't done yet.
Based on a patch from Olaf Hering we remove the node now only if the
requested dev_t is different from the already existing node, so any
run of udevstart should preserve the inode number of the node file.
syslog while the right node is already there:
creating device node '/udev/hda'
make_node: preserve file '/udev/hda', cause it has correct dev_t
make_node: chmod(/udev/hda, 060600)
syslog for wrong file already there:
creating device node '/udev/hda'
make_node: already present file '/udev/hda' unlinked
make_node: chmod(/udev/hda, 060600)
syslog for directory with same name already there:
creating device node '/udev/hda'
make_node: unlink(/udev/hda) failed with error '21'
