'settle' between 'subsystems' and 'devices' is probably unnecessary (e.g. opensuse doesn't have one). I think I'll ask on udev list about reference way to coldplug these days. Lots of distros still don't bother with --type, or even --action. Looking at libudev/libudev-enumerate.c it seems both 'subsystems' and 'devices' should be done, but I'm not completely sure.
Well, I think it's not a big loss of time to call settle, though the README [1] doesn't show it in the recommended setup sequence. If you get new informations, please report back. We've done some tests yesterday and found only a small issue. We have to cp 3 devices manually if tmpfs is used as the filesystem for /dev, without that udevd complains at system start about a missing /dev/null. Not a serious problem, because everything else seems to work fine. That's explained in the README too and not necessary with devtmpfs. I've collected all the changes we've discussed here into a new udev port, which is in my privat repo for testing [2]. Please report any issues. Thanks in advance to all for testing and best regards Juergen [1] http://tinyurl.com/36o5dxa [2] httpup sync http://jue.li/crux/ports/#udev udev -- Juergen Daubert | mailto:jue@jue.li Korb, Germany | http://jue.li/crux
