91345610f8 Strictly require libudev if udev_sync is used.
This prevents some confusion when libudev was not found so udev_sync was disabled
automatically. Configure was successful though giving only a tiny warning.

Also, if "dmsetup udevcreatecookie" is used, never return 0x000000 as a result if
udev is not running and keep the output blank.

ac3691f70e Add support for ioctl's DM_UEVENT_GENERATED_FLAG.
We need to know whether we should wait for any uevent or not when
using udev_sync. A kernel patch was posted recently that changed the
way uevents are sent on dm device resume - it is sent only if the
device has been suspended before. There's also a new DM_UEVENT_GENERATED_FLAG
in the ioctl to notify userspace whether the event was generated.

If the uevent was not generated (e.g. the situation where the device is
*not* suspended and we call a resume), we just call dm_udev_complete
explicitly from within libdevmapper itself to prevent infinite waiting
while trying to synchronise with udev processing.

f0e073fcdc Several changes in dmsetup and libdevmapper:
- add DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK udev flag to rely on udev only

 - export dm_udev_create_cookie function to create new cookies on demand

 - add --udevcookie, udevcreatecookie and udevreleasecookie for dmsetup
   (to support "udev transactions" where one cookie value can be used for
    several dmsetup calls)

 - don't use DM_UDEV_DISABLE_CHECKING env. var. anymore and set the state
   automatically (based on udev and libdevmapper dev path comparison)

4df024c40c Define {DM, LVM}_UDEV_DISABLE_CHECKING=1 env. variables for tests.
We need to disable udev checking for our tests since they use their own

d2b43c4b34 Add support to disable udev checking: DM_UDEV_DISABLE_CHECKING=1 env. variable.
Sometimes it is really needed to switch off udev checking and the warnings we show when
we detect that udev has not done its job right - the messages like "Udev should have done
this and that. Falling back to direct node creation/removal. " etc.

This would be especially handy while setting DM_DEV_DIR env var that could be set to a
different location than standard /dev (udev can't create nodes/symlinks out of that one
directory that is configured into udevd). The exact same situation happens while we're
running our tests.

0d408f0c43 Disable udev rules on change event with DISK_RO=1.
There's a new change udev event generated since kernel 2.6.32 that
notifies userspace about a change in read-only attribute for block
devices (with DISK_RO=1 environment variable set).

We need to detect this and disable the rule application so the
meaning of this change event is not interchanged with the regular
change event used while resuming/renaming DM devices.

If there's anybody awaiting this notification in foreign rules,
he can still check for this env var and do the appropriate actions
separately.

584d1fb7d1 Support udev flags even when udev_sync is disabled or not compiled in.
This provides better support for environments where udev rules are installed
but udev_sync is not compiled in (however, using udev_sync is highly
recommended). It also provides consistent and expected functionality even
when '--noudevsync' option is used.

There is still requirement for kernel >= 2.6.31 for the flags to work though
(it uses DM cookies to pass the flags into the kernel and set them in udev
event environment that we can read in udev rules).

9c20c7af59 Remove 'last_rule' from udev rules.
'last_rule' option has been removed from udev (version >= 147).

From now on, we require foreign rules to check and honor
ENV{DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG} instead. Foreign
rules should be skipped totally when this flag is set.

772f7d4188 Use udev flags in the rules and cleanup the rules:
- remove default permissions set in 95-dm-notify.rules (and add a hint in 12-dm-permissions.rules to set it by the user directly)
 - add multipath DM_ACTION=="PATH_FAILED" filter
 - remove unnecessary filters in the headers of the rules (we can simply use DM_UDEV_RULES_VSN instead)
 - fix symlink priorities in /dev/disk/ (snapshot volumes have low priority for FS UUID symlinks so it will not overwrite symlinks for the origin)
