Hi,
this could be achieved by just one udev rule, no need to patch lirc.
This is how I configured udev:
$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/z20_event-by-id.rules
SUBSYSTEM!="input", GOTO="input-by-id2-end"
ACTION!="add", GOTO="input-by-id2-end"
# ignore the mid-level drivers
KERNEL=="input[0-9]*", GOTO="input-by-id2-end"
KERNEL=="event*", \
SYMLINK+="input/event-by-id/$SYSFS{idVendor}-$SYSFS{idProduct}"
LABEL="input-by-id2-end"
You should now have /dev/input/event-by-id/ with files that are named
by <vendor-ID>-<device-ID>.
Regards,
Tino
