Remove the overwriting of main_argv[] hack and use the values
from the udev object.
Pass the udev object to call_foreach_file().
In the udevstart case, export SUBSYSTEM and UDEVSTART to the
environment.
The option "-s" will get information about the major/minor,
the physical device, the bus value and the driver from sysfs for
all class and block devices:
kay@pim udev.kay]$ ./udevinfo -s
DEVPATH '/sys/block/sda'
SUBSYSTEM 'block'
NAME 'sda'
MAJORMINOR '8:0'
PHYSDEVPATH '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-3/1-3:1.0/host2/target2:0:0/2:0:0:0'
PHYSDEVPATHBUS 'scsi'
DRIVER 'sd'
DEVPATH '/sys/class/input/mice'
SUBSYSTEM 'input'
NAME 'mice'
MAJORMINOR '13:63'
DEVPATH '/sys/class/input/mouse0'
SUBSYSTEM 'input'
NAME 'mouse0'
MAJORMINOR '13:32'
...
Make _all_ hotplug variables available to the forked udev,
the udev callouts and the udev dev.d/ scripts. We put the
whole environment into a buffer and send it over the udevd
socket. udevd recreates *envp[] and passes it to the exec().
This makes the udev operation completely lockless by storing a
file for every node in /dev/.udevdb/* This solved the problem
with deadlocking concurrent udev processes waiting for each other
to release the file lock under heavy load.
Hi,
Here is a few updates for the udev.rules.gentoo from udev package.
I will summarise it briefly:
1) The last change you did to legacy tty's is wrong.
I say this because:
1a) The original devfs rules had both master and slave in /dev/pty:
nosferatu linux # grep devfs_name drivers/char/pty.c
pty_driver->devfs_name = "pty/m";
pty_slave_driver->devfs_name = "pty/s";
nosferatu linux #
1b) If you refer to '2.6.8.1-mm1 Tty problems?', you will see that
the /dev/tty/ directory our rules create, replaces this symlink:
nosferatu portage # ls -l /dev/tty
crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 0 Nov 14 17:06 /dev/tty
nosferatu portage #
which is used to determine the controlling tty.
2) Somebody added the /dev/cpu/microcode rule, but it was not run
as there was an older rule before that placing it in /dev/misc (which
is wrong). Just remove the first broken rule
3) Some form/tab cleanups. Reorder rules alphabetically according to
device class to make searching/editing easier.
In the grand tradition of releasing free software projects on my birthday
for the past few years.
And yes, I skipped version 041, call it grumpyness in my old age...
Change to the same timeout loop we use in the rest of the code. Change
some comments and names to be more descriptive.
I'm mostly finished with the overall cleanup. I will post a new patch
for the udevd-nofork experiment, which will be much smaller now.
This patch exposes the wait_for_sysfs functions to all possible users,
so we need to maintain only one list of exceptions. The last list is
hereby removed from udev.c.
Hi,
I got these when creating LVM2 snapshots:
