Great. Let me know, if you guys have decided anything. > Isn't there a match_property function for udev_monitor too? Not now. We could add it but, the filtering would need to happen in libudev in the client process. Unlike the subsystem matches, where we compose a Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) sequence, and push it inside the kernel to the client socket, and the kernel will do the message filtering to prevent the listening process to be woken up for messages not subscribed to. All more advanced filters, like the free-text properties, we need to do in the client, because the BPF are very limited. But I can add that, if its useful. It probably matches nicely to the enumerator interface, so I guess we should have it. > Anyway, I just noticed that 70-v4l_id.rules is not being installed at > the moment. Attaching a simple patch. Applied. Thanks.
