If logging to stderr and/or syslog the -v option can be given one or
more times to increase the log verbosity. If mdev is used as hotplug
helper the log level is fixed set to 2 if mdev.log is found an appended
because there is no possiblity to pass arguments to the hotplug helper.

If mdev is run as daemon it should be possible to forward the debug
messages to syslog. This feature might be useful if mdev is run with -s
during boot too. OTOH it makes no sense for the daemon to log to
mdev.log. This can be handled by a syslog daemon way better. If the
daemon stays in the foreground due to -f, the messages are still written
to stderr as before.

If the netlink read() failed with ENOBUFS we know that we have missed at
least one message due to a socket receive buffer overrun. The only way
how to recover is to drop the old socket, open a fresh one and make a
cold-plug scan of the current system state.

The socket receive buffer turned out to be too small for real world
systems. Use the same size as udevd to be on the safe side. As this is
just a limit and the memory is not allocated by the kernel until really
needed there is actually no memory wasted.

PLATFORM_LINUX is a hidden configuration option which is disabled by
default and enabled at over a hundred locations for features that are
deemed to be Linux specific.
The only effect of PLATFORM_LINUX is to control compilation of
libbb/match_fstype.c. This file is only needed by mount and umount.
Remove all references to PLATFORM_LINUX and compile match_fstype.c
if mount or umount is enabled.

Back in 2007, commit 0c97c9d437 ("'simple' error message functions by
Loic Grenie") introduced bb_simple_perror_msg() to allow for a lower
overhead call to bb_perror_msg() when only a string was being printed
with no parameters. This saves space for some CPU architectures because
it avoids the overhead of a call to a variadic function. However there
has never been a simple version of bb_error_msg(), and since 2007 many
new calls to bb_perror_msg() have been added that only take a single
parameter and so could have been using bb_simple_perror_message().
This changeset introduces 'simple' versions of bb_info_msg(),
bb_error_msg(), bb_error_msg_and_die(), bb_herror_msg() and
bb_herror_msg_and_die(), and replaces all calls that only take a
single parameter, or use something like ("%s", arg), with calls to the
corresponding 'simple' version.
Since it is likely that single parameter calls to the variadic functions
may be accidentally reintroduced in the future a new debugging config
option WARN_SIMPLE_MSG has been introduced. This uses some macro magic
which will cause any such calls to generate a warning, but this is
turned off by default to avoid use of the unpleasant macros in normal
circumstances.
This is a large changeset due to the number of calls that have been
replaced. The only files that contain changes other than simple
substitution of function calls are libbb.h, libbb/herror_msg.c,
libbb/verror_msg.c and libbb/xfuncs_printf.c. In miscutils/devfsd.c,
networking/udhcp/common.h and util-linux/mdev.c additonal macros have
been added for logging so that single parameter and multiple parameter
logging variants exist.
The amount of space saved varies considerably by architecture, and was
found to be as follows (for 'defconfig' using GCC 7.4):
Arm: -92 bytes
MIPS: -52 bytes
PPC: -1836 bytes
x86_64: -938 bytes
Note that for the MIPS architecture only an exception had to be made
disabling the 'simple' calls for 'udhcp' (in networking/udhcp/common.h)
because it made these files larger on MIPS.

Adds the -d option to run mdev in daemon mode handling hotplug events
from the kernel like udev. If the system generates many hotplug events
this mode of operation will consume less resources than registering
mdev as hotplug helper or using the uevent applet.

Currently some new devices that have a bus but no class will
be missed by mdev coldplug device creation after boot. This
happens because mdev recursively searches /sys/class which will
by definition only find class devices.
Some important devices such as iio and gpiochip does not have
a class. But users will need them.
This switches from using /sys/class as the place to look for
devices to create to using /sys/dev where all char and block
devices are listed.
The subsystem lookup code that provide the G.subsystem
environment variable is changed from using the directory
name of the class device to instead dereference the
"subsystem" symlink for the device, and look at the last
element of the path of the symlink for the subsystem, which
will work with class devices and bus devices alike. (The new
bus-only devices only symlink to the /sys/bus/* hierarchy.)
We delete the legacy kernel v2.6.2x /sys/block device path
code as part of this change. It's too old to be kept alive.
Tested on kernel v4.6-rc2 with a bunch of devices, including
some IIO and gpiochip devices.
With a print inserted before make_device() the log looks
like so:
Create device from "/sys/dev/char/1:1", subsystem "mem"
Create device from "/sys/dev/char/1:2", subsystem "mem"
Create device from "/sys/dev/char/1:3", subsystem "mem"
Create device from "/sys/dev/char/1:5", subsystem "mem"
(...)
Create device from "/sys/dev/block/179:56", subsystem "block"
Create device from "/sys/dev/block/179:64", subsystem "block"

memcpy(p, b, n);
and use it where possible. The example in traceroute used xzalloc

516530c932 uses $DEVNAME variable
for device node name. This is fine, but only works for hotplugging,
"mdev -s" will behave differently when DEVNAME and basename(path)
differ.
This patch extracts the DEVNAME from the uevent sysfs file in
make_device(), thus works for hot- and coldplugging; so using
the environment DEVNAME on hotplug events is no longer necessary.

Sequential run of concurrent mdev's was too simplistic:
they waited for /dev/mdev.seq to match. This could sometimes
cause cumulative loss of time on the order of a second.
Added SIGCHLD signaling from exiting mdev to all other mdev's.
Added debugging required to see that code actually works as intended.
Example of /dev/mdev.log (with "woken up" elevated from dbg lvl 3 to 2):
