From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Kay Sievers Date: Wed, 01 Oct 2008 20:47:11 +0000 Subject: [ANNOUNCE] udev 129 release Message-Id: <1222894031.2705.1.camel@lgn.site> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-hotplug@vger.kernel.org Here comes a new udev version. Thanks to all who have contributed to this release. The tarball can be found here: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/ The development repository can be found here: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=summary The ChangeLog can be found here: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=blob;hb=HEAD;f=ChangeLog udev 129 ==== Fix recently introduced bug, which caused a compilation without large file support, where vol_id does not recognize raid signatures at the end of a volume. Firewire disks now create both, by-id/scsi-* and by-id/ieee-* links. Seems some kernel versions prevent the creation of the ieee-* links, so people used the scsi-* link which disappeared now. More libudev work. Almost all udevadm functionality comes from libudev now. udevadm trigger has a new option --type, which allows to trigger events for "devices", for "subsystems", or "failed" devices. The old option --retry-failed" still works, but is no longer mentioned in the man page.
