Bug 87440 – ieee1394 and udev should now work

• Status: VERIFIED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Frank Aune 2005-03-31 10:42:48 UTC]

The ieee1394 subsystem now correctly exports details to sysfs, so it should be possible for udev to create the correct nodes in /dev.

For udev rules:
# ieee1394 devices
KERNEL="raw1394", NAME="%k"
KERNEL="dv1394*", NAME="dv1394/%n"
KERNEL="video1394*", NAME="video1394/%n"

For udev permissions:
# ieee1394 devices
raw1394:root:users:0660
dv1394/*:root:users:0660
video1394/*:root:users:0660


Reproducible: Always

Care to turn this into a patch that I can apply?

[Comment 2 Frank Aune 2005-04-04 08:03:58 UTC]

Actually, this does not seem to work properly. But I dont really understand why yet, since it seems to me ieee1394 exports information properly to sysfs. So udev should be able to create the correct nodes. I have to do some more tests before applying a patch. Others can of course try to make this work in the mean time.

@dsd: What

@dsd: What´t the status of this patch? http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/11/14/6  - does
it work for raw1394?

The patch is wrong. The correct fix will be included in 2.6.12 and things will
magically start working then.

Daniel - What's the ETA on a 2.6.12 kernel that would address this? Thanks!

Probably less than a week

Closed as it is now availble.
