    Greg> /dev/umad* /dev/ib/umad*

Right now the umad module creates devices with kernel names like
umad0, umad1, etc, but it puts ibdev and port files in sysfs so
userspace can figure out which IB device and port the file corresponds
to.  I would really prefer to have this info reflected in the /dev name...

    Greg> People who do not use udev will not like you.

OK, I guess we will apply to LANANA.
