題目: Re: [Dng] What to do with udev? Some ideas...
I see vdev as more of a medium/long-term solution. I'd create a
libudev-compat library that implemented the udev API, but I'd structure
vdev to expose the same information via the filesystem (so libudev-compat
would just perform the requisite filesystem queries for legacy
applications).
