udevadm

udevadm

[Kay Sievers]

It was long overdue, today all the tiny udev tools got merged into a
single binary:
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=commit;h"5cb03bd851adc6d269b13bdf2b1bfded2b96b9

The next udev release will only have the daemon and one admin binary
that contains everything. Symlinks to udevadm with the current tool
names provide the same functionality as before.

Just a heads-up for stuff like mkinitramfs and friends, it needs to
include the /sbin/udevadm binary, instead of only the symlinks. :)
Would be good to check/prepare that if needed, to be ready for the new
version.

Thanks,
Kay

Here is a trivial patch to fix typo in udevadm.xml.

Eek, fixed, thanks!

Hi Matthias,
I also committed the following:
  $ udevadm info --device-id-of-file=/
  8 5

Something like:
  root_symlink_rule() {
    devt=$(/sbin/udevadm info --device-id-of-file=/)
    cat > /dev/.udev/rules.d/10-root-symlink.rules <<-EOF
    ACTION="add", SUBSYSTEM="block", ENV{MAJOR}="${devt% *}",
ENV{MINOR}="${devt#* }", SYMLINK+="root"
    EOF
  }

done before system coldplug, will create the /dev/root symlink,
you have been looking for. :)

Kay
