If we want a full log with timestamps etc. I'm fine with providing a
disabled service which does that. This could be enabled using the
standard "systemctl enable udev-monitor", or also via the kernel command
line if "debug" is given. But I am really resistant about writing this
extra log file all the time without a good reason.

Title:
  move to systemd has regressed /var/log/udev.log

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The udev package contains an upstart job, /etc/init/udevmonitor.conf,
  whose purpose is to record boot-time information about devices in a
  log file for future debugging.  There is no equivalent systemd unit
  for this job, so with the move to systemd, we now lose this useful
  debugging information.  I'm not aware of any other way under systemd
  to get a replay of the boot-time kernel events.  If there is one,
  that's fine, but otherwise there should be a systemd unit equivalent
  here that can give us this log.
