This change adds the ability to match source devices in composite device configs based on udev properties. This new matching method is the most powerful and flexible way to match input devices and could completely replace the existing
evdev
,hidraw
, andiio
match configs, but those methods will still exist to maintain backwards compatibility.Here are some examples:
Old Method
New Method
While slightly more complex, this new method will allow us to glob match on any udev data, including attributes from
udevadm info --attribute-walk /path/to/device
or udev properties fromudevadm info -q property /path/to/device
.
