========
Bugfixes.
The udev daemon will now create /dev/null, /dev/console, /dev/kmsg at
startup, if they don't exist already.
Libudev allows to subscribe to udev events. To prevent unwanted messages
to be delivered, and waking up the subscribing process, a filter can be
installed, to drop messages inside a kernel socket filter. The filters
match on the <subsytem>:<devtype> properties of the device.
This is part of the ongoing effort to replace HAL, and switch current
users over to directly use libudev, or for higher-level services use the
specialized D-Bus interface of a DeviceKit service.
Libudev is still marked as experimental, and its interface might
change if needed, but no major changes of the currently exported interface
are expected anymore, and a first stable release should happen soon.
A too old kernel (2.6.21) or a kernel with CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED
is not supported since while and udevd will log an error message at
startup.
