[eudev] udevd not loading modules?

[eudev] udevd not loading modules?

[David F.]

Hi,

I've tried building the sources as well as taking the versions from
the Devaun project, but can't get the update to udev on my small
busybox distro to load the modules?  With the new version, If I
manually load modules, things show in /dev as they should.

The current version is older 175 version, newer one from Devaun is 220
(eudev).  If I start with the older working version and change out
just the udevadm, everything still works (obviously I add the libudev
dependency) .  If I  start with the older working version and change
out just the udevd, it doesn't work (added libudev and libkmod
dependencies).    The --debug output is about the same as the older
version ( new version has a couple issues with some rules like missing
group name), just after trigger no changes in new version, old version
tons of stuff.

If I just use everything pulled over from Devaun, (220 version), some
of the static items are created, but most items are not created.

Any idea how to find out what is going on?  Why is it not
automatically loading the modules?

TIA!!

[eudev] Fwd: udevd not loading modules?

I found that it wasn't built with zlib or xz support, the modules were
zlib (.gz) type.  I guess the udevd using the klib module was also not
supporting .gz modules.   However, now that I have it building items
to /sys/class/block, they are still not showing in /dev ?

Any idea on that one (DING - I manually did it, so maybe it has to do
with the temp file system that the script mounts if not mounted).

Can you open a bug on https://github.com/gentoo/eudev and give steps to
reproduce the error.
