[systemd-devel] [PATCH] udev hwdb: Support shipping pre-compiled database in system images

[Martin Pitt]

Hello all,

as discussed on the plumbers conference, I would like to optionally
move the compiled hwdb.bin out of /etc/. For r/o system images it is
much nicer if they can just ship a pre-generated hwdb in /usr without
having to build it at runtime/factory reset time, and avoid having to
carry it in /etc.

The behaviour of this should be fully backwards compatible.

Thanks for considering,

Martin
