[ANNOUNCE] udev 014 release

[ANNOUNCE] udev 014 release

[Greg KH]

I've released the 014 version of udev.  It can be found at:
 	kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev-014.tar.gz

rpms built against Red Hat FC1 are available at:
	kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev-014-1.i386.rpm
with the source rpm at:
	kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev-014-1.src.rpm

udev allows users to have a dynamic /dev and provides the ability to
have persistent device names.  It uses sysfs and /sbin/hotplug and runs
entirely in userspace.  It requires a 2.6 kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG
enabled to run.  Please see the udev FAQ for any questions about it:
	kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev-FAQ

For any udev vs devfs questions anyone might have, please see:
	kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev_vs_devfs

Major changes from the 013 version:
	- speed!  This version is _much_ faster than the 013 release.
	  Thanks to Ananth Narayan for the libsysfs changes (and udev
	  patch) that enabled this.
	- there's a new program called udevinfo in the extras/ directory
	  that helps in determining the sysfs information for a specific
	  device.  This is useful in writing new udev rules.
	- the %D modifier is now gone.  People who were using it to
	  provide a devfs naming scheme will need to rewrite their rules
	  (look at the examples on the linux-hotplug-devel mailing list
	  for more details.)
	- lots of little changes and bug fixes.

Thanks again to everyone who has send me patches for this release, a
full list of everyone, and their changes is below.

udev development is done in a BitKeeper repository located at:
	bk://linuxusb.bkbits.net/udev

Daily snapshots of udev from the BitKeeper tree can be found at:
	http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/projects/bitkeeper/udev/
If anyone ever wants a tarball of the current bk tree, just email me.

thanks,

greg k-h

Why do I have to do bk pull twice to get updates from that repository?
Like this:

$ bk pull
Pull bk://linuxusb.bkbits.net/udev
  -> file://home/src/udev
$ bk pull
Pull bk://linuxusb.bkbits.net/udev
  -> file://home/src/udev

1.449 1.448 1.447 1.446 1.445 1.444 1.443 1.442 1.441 1.440
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This may be off-topic here, but I've only seen it with the udev
repository.

I have no idea.  If you try:
	bk://kernel.bkbits.net/gregkh/udev/
does it work better? (that's a mirror of the linuxusb udev tree)

thanks,

I don't know.  I'll try that next time (there are no more changes to
get right now).  I could of course unpull and try again, but I don't a
working pull then would mean anything.

I have exactly the same behavior. Three out of ten times,
I have to pull twice to get it.

Me too. Probably about 2 or 3 times out of ten it will do it.

Very wierd.  Make sure you are using the latest version of bk (3.0.4 as
of today).  I've pushed a single changeset out to the repository for
everyone to see if they can pull successfully.

Also try bk://kernel.bkbits.net/gregkh/udev and see if that works better
for people.

thanks,

greg k-h

It worked now. I've upgraded from 3.0.3 and used the linuxusb tree,
I will mention it, if it happens again.

Just for the record, I've been using 3.0.4 all along.
