Would disabling the watch rule be a reasonable approach in this case? If the

am I missing something?
Before diving into these 'deep waters' - I'd really like to first see if the
problem is still such an issue with our upstream code base.
There have been lot of minor optimization committed over the time - so the
amount of fired 'watch' rules should be considerably smaller then the version
mentioned in customer issue.
There is on going 'SID' project - that might push the logic somewhat
further, but existing 'device' support logic as is today is
unfortunate 'trace' of how the design should not have been made - and
since all 'original' programmers left the project long time ago - it's
non-trivial to push things forward.
Well, this is not good news. Just for my education, it is possibile to run a
modern linux distro without udev at all? I still remember when the new cool
thing for device autodiscovery was devfs (with some distro - like gentoo -
taking the alternative approach to simply tarrig & untarring much of the

We just hope the SID will make some progress (although probably small
one at the beginning).
Any info on the project?
