Add persistent symlinks for MTD devices like SPI-NOR flash, based on the
partition names specified on the cmdline, in a Device Tree, or by other
MTD partitioning parser drivers. Using the persistent name can be
preferable to using the numbered /dev/mtdX device, as the latter can
change depending on probe order or when partitioning has changed.
The DMI rules where so far guarded by an ACTION=="add" rule, but that
doesn't really make sense for setting properties (only for setting
access modes/ownership of nodes).
Hence let's move this into its own file, that guards properly on
ACTION!="remove".
Before this change the hardware vendor/model info would be dropped
whenever the device was retriggered.
Meta's resource control demo project[0] includes a benchmark tool that can
be used to calculate the best iocost solutions for a given SSD.

A project[1] has now been started to create a publicly available database
of results that can be used to apply them automatically.

This change adds a new tool that gets triggered by a udev rule for any
block device and queries the hwdb for known solutions. The format for
the hwdb file that is currently generated by the github action looks like
this:

The IOCOST_SOLUTIONS key lists the solutions available for that device
in the preferred order for higher isolation, which is a reasonable
default for most client systems. This can be overriden to choose better
defaults for custom use cases, like the various data center workloads.
The tool can also be used to query the known solutions for a specific
device or to apply a non-default solution (say, isolation or bandwidth).

When built without blkid, then udev-builtin-blkid is not built,
and the verifier warns about the unknown builtin:
60-persistent-storage.rules:114 Unknown builtin command: blkid --hint=session_offset=$env{ID_CDROM_MEDIA_SESSION_LAST_OFFSET}
60-persistent-storage.rules:117 Unknown builtin command: blkid --noraid
60-persistent-storage.rules:120 Unknown builtin command: blkid
60-persistent-storage.rules: udev rules check failed
GIT_VERSION is not available as a config.h variable, because it's rendered
into version.h during builds. Let's rework jinja2 rendering to also
parse version.h. No functional change, the new variable is so far unused.
I guess this will make partial rebuilds a bit slower, but it's useful
to be able to use the full version string.
The approach to use '''…'''.split() instead of a list of strings was initially
used when converting from automake because it allowed identical blocks of lines
to be used for both, making the conversion easier.
But over the years we have been using normal lists more and more, especially
when there were just a few filenames listed. This converts the rest.
No functional change.
When using "capture : true" in custom_target()s the mode of the source
file is not preserved when the generated file is not installed and so
needs to be tweaked manually. Switch from output capture to creating the
target file and copy the permissions from the input file.

Some interfaces require that the DHCPOFFER message is sent via broadcast
if they can't receive unicast messages before they've been configured
with an IP address.
E.g., s390 ccwgroup network interfaces operating in layer3 mode face
this limitation. This can prevent the interfaces from receiving an
IP address via DHCP, if the have been configured for layer3.
To allow DHCP over such interfaces, we're introducing a new device
property ID_NET_DHCP_BROADCAST which can be set for those.
The networkd DHCP client will check whether this property is set
for an interface, and if so will set the broadcast flag, unless
the network configuration for the interface has an explicit
RequestBroadcast setting.
Besides that, we're adding a udev rule to set this device property
for ccwgroup devices operating in layer3 mode, which is the case
if the ID_NET_DRIVER property is qeth_l3.
Supercedes #18829
Add memory_id program to set properties about the physical memory
devices in the system. This is useful on machines with removable memory
modules to show how the machine can be upgraded, and on all devices to
detect the actual RAM size, without relying on the OS accessible amount.
Closes: #16651
Concatenating strings is not a very efficient approach. And in this case fully
unnecessary. We also need some rules to make use of those hwdb entries.
PCI needs to be 8 characters, not 4. And we need to use uppercase hexadecimal
for both. With udev rules this made no difference, but hwdb match is case
sensitive.
Fixes#16119.
This change is only about the source tree. We have tmpfiles.d/, modprobe.d/,
sysctl.d/, and sysusers.d/, but for historical reasons, rules/ didn't fit this
pattern. We also *install* it as rules.d/. Let's rename to be consistent.
