It only contains *non-functional changes*. This series deals with with fixing up uevent filtering logic: - uevent filtering logic is simplified - locking time on uevent_sock_list is minimized - tagged and untagged kobjects are handled in separate codepaths - permissions for userspace are fixed for network device uevents in network namespaces owned by non-initial user namespaces Udev is now able to see those events correctly which it wasn't before. For example, moving a physical device into a network namespace not owned by the initial user namespaces before gave: root@xen1:~# udevadm --debug monitor -k calling: monitor monitor will print the received events for: KERNEL - the kernel uevent sender uid=65534, message ignored sender uid=65534, message ignored sender uid=65534, message ignored sender uid=65534, message ignored sender uid=65534, message ignored and now after the discussion and solution in [3] correctly gives: root@xen1:~# udevadm --debug monitor -k calling: monitor monitor will print the received events for: KERNEL - the kernel uevent KERNEL[625.301042] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/0000:01:00.1/net/enp1s0f1 (net) KERNEL[625.301109] move /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/0000:01:00.1/net/enp1s0f1 (net) KERNEL[625.301138] move /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/0000:01:00.1/net/eth1 (net) KERNEL[655.333272] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/0000:01:00.1/net/eth1 (net) Thanks!
