So how to get eventfs going with vdev. ./eventfs /run/udev
or where should eventfs be mounted? Eventfs mounting will not be handled by vdev, right? /scooby On 2015-09-22 04:44, Jude Nelson wrote:
Hey everyone, I promise, I'm not dead :) I've been working on vdev off and on over the past couple months as time permitted, but I haven't had anything interesting to report here (mostly bug fixes, which are tracked on the project's Github [1]). This past week I've been able to spend more time on vdev, now that my major event for $WORK has come and gone. I'm pleased to announce the availability of eventfs [2], the final piece of software required to replace udev. Eventfs is a specialized userspace filesystem that replaces the udev-to-libudev event multicast protocol, which is currently based on netlink but will soon be based on kdbus. Eventfs fulfills an equivalent role, but it does so in a portable manner in userspace, and it abstracts dealing with message multicast groups as dealing with files and directories with a few extra rules [3]. I'm going to migrate my production machine to using eventfs with libudev-compat this weekend. Once I'm satisfied that it works as expected, I'll begin packaging all of vdev's components for Devuan. Questions, comments, and feedback are all welcome :) Thanks,y Jude [1] https://github.com/jcnelson/vdev [1] [2] https://github.com/jcnelson/eventfs [2] [3] https://github.com/jcnelson/eventfs/blob/master/README.md [3] Links: ------ [1] https://github.com/jcnelson/vdev [2] https://github.com/jcnelson/eventfs [3] https://github.com/jcnelson/eventfs/blob/master/README.md _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
