From fa675765afed59bb89adba3369094ebd428b930b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2006 09:39:02 -0800 Subject: Revert mount/umount uevent removal This change reverts the 033b96fd30db52a710d97b06f87d16fc59fee0f1 commit from Kay Sievers that removed the mount/umount uevents from the kernel. Some older versions of HAL still depend on these events to detect when a new device has been mounted. These events are not correctly emitted, and are broken by design, and so, should not be relied upon by any future program. Instead, the /proc/mounts file should be polled to properly detect this kind of event. A feature-removal-schedule.txt entry has been added, noting when this interface will be removed from the kernel.
