RUN="socket:<name>" will send the environment in the kernel uevent
format to the named destination. Using the socket instead of the program
to pass the hotplug events to the HAL daemon, cuts down the running
time of udevstart from 0.8 to 0.4 seconds on my box.

Solaris uses volume_id now and they fiddled around with configure scripts
to map the linux kernel int types. Adding the types locally to volume_id
breaks the klibc build, so just switch to these ugly types and forget it. :)

Some architectures really want well alingned structures.
Thanks to Jim Gifford <maillist@jg555.com> for help finding it.

This will allow us to have whole blocks of rules to skip
conditionally. The following section creates the node "yes":
GOTO="TEST"
NAME="no"
NAME="no2", LABEL="NO"
NAME="yes", LABEL="TEST"
NAME="no3"
Note, this assumes that you are putting your device nodes in /dev/, the
better thing to do is use the RUN= rule and not rely on this program at all.

Device nodes created with the default rule, without any symlink or option
are no longer saved to the udevdb. This saves us ~3 MB RAM for pretty much
useless files on tmpfs.
Note: HAL needs a fix to handle this correctly. It's already available on
the list.

This cuts down our 600 rules file to 98 kb instead of 1.9 Mb memory
or file-size with precompiled rules.
