Because it was changed several times already in the past, and it seems people cannot make up their mind what is right here. > The only point I can understand is that you don't like storage related code > in udev > because you don't understand it and so you don't want to maintain it. > I could try to explain that in case of any issues you may seek help in the > scsi-misc list, > but well ok it's your decision. Exactly, even the people involved doing the code seem to have problems to sort it out. This code and use case is just too specific and a niche, it should not be maintained in systemd/udev but in a separate package where someone else takes the responsibility for it. > This is I think by far not the last storage related code in udev, do you want > to > remove the other parts too, like the by-uuid and the other by-* obvious > candidates ? The generic, well-defined and generally useful parts like filesystem, partition table properties, WWN IDs, ... will stay. SCSI IDs will move to sg3_util. Specific ATA stuff and the rest of the overly complex enterprise storage stuff will need a new home.
