Subject: systemd 183 and /lib/udev/devices/
Date: Sun, 27 May 2012 14:46:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.2.01.1205271034530.1246@waverley.dhcp.wfu.edu> (raw)

I see in the NEWS file:

"udev: /lib/udev/devices/ are not read anymore; 
systemd-tmpfiles should be used to create dead device nodes as 
workarounds for broken subsystems."

What sort of "broken subsystems" are we talking about here? 
I'm currently running systemd 44 and udev 182 (without init 
scripts) and I have "pts" and "shm" under /lib/udev/devices/. 
There's no reference to /dev/pts or /dev/shm in fstab, but at 
run time /dev/pts is populated and there's a tmpfs mounted on 
/dev/shm. How can I tell whether I need the systemd-tmpfiles 
workaround? Thanks.
