<refsect1 > <title > DESCRIPTION</title>
<para > udev provides a dynamic device directory containing only the files for
actually present devices. It creates or removes device node files in the
<filename > /dev</filename> directory, or it renames network interfaces.</para>
<para > Usually udev runs as <citerefentry > <refentrytitle > udevd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum > 8</manvolnum> </citerefentry> and receives uevents directly from the
2007-03-08 15:59:28 +03:00
kernel if a device is added or removed from the system.</para>
2005-08-31 01:30:52 +04:00
<para > If udev receives a device event, it matches its configured rules
against the available device attributes provided in sysfs to identify the device.
2007-03-08 15:59:28 +03:00
Rules that match may provide additional device information or specify a device
2005-08-31 01:30:52 +04:00
node name and multiple symlink names and instruct udev to run additional programs
as part of the device event handling.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1 > <title > CONFIGURATION</title>
2008-07-18 17:56:03 +04:00
<para > udev configuration files are placed in <filename > /etc/udev/</filename>
and <filename > /lib/udev/</filename> . All empty lines, or lines beginning with
'#' will be ignored.</para>
2005-08-31 01:30:52 +04:00
<refsect2 > <title > Configuration file</title>
<para > udev expects its main configuration file at <filename > /etc/udev/udev.conf</filename> .
It consists of a set of variables allowing the user to override default udev values.
The following variables can be set:</para>
<variablelist >
<varlistentry >
<term > <option > udev_root</option> </term>
<listitem >
<para > Specifies where to place the device nodes in the filesystem.
The default value is <filename > /dev</filename> .</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry >
<term > <option > udev_log</option> </term>
<listitem >
<para > The logging priority. Valid values are the numerical syslog priorities
or their textual representations: <option > err</option> , <option > info</option>
and <option > debug</option> .</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</refsect2>
<refsect2 > <title > Rules files</title>
<para > The udev rules are read from the files located in the
2008-07-18 17:56:03 +04:00
default rules directory <filename > /lib/udev/rules.d/</filename> ,
the custom rules directory <filename > /etc/udev/rules.d/</filename>
and the temporary rules directory <filename > /dev/.udev/rules.d/</filename> .
All rule files are sorted and processed in lexical order, regardless
2008-08-09 16:05:01 +04:00
in which of these directories they live.</para>
<para > Rule files are required to have a unique name, duplicate file names
are ignored. Files in <filename > /etc/udev/rules.d/</filename> have precedence
over files with the same name in <filename > /lib/udev/rules.d/</filename> . This
can be used to ignore a default rules file if needed.</para>
<para > Every line in the rules file contains at least one key value pair.
There are two kind of keys, match and assignment keys.
2005-08-31 01:30:52 +04:00
If all match keys are matching against its value, the rule gets applied and the
2007-02-25 03:26:53 +03:00
assign keys get the specified value assigned.</para>
<para > A matching rule may specify the name of the device node, add a symlink
pointing to the node, or run a specified program as part of the event handling.
If no matching rule is found, the default device node name is used.</para>
2005-08-31 01:30:52 +04:00
2007-03-08 15:59:28 +03:00
<para > A rule may consist of a list of one or more key value pairs separated by
2005-08-31 01:30:52 +04:00
a comma. Each key has a distinct operation, depending on the used operator. Valid
operators are:</para>
<variablelist >

<listitem >
<para > Compare for equality.</para>

</variablelist>
2007-02-25 03:26:53 +03:00
<para > The following key names can be used to match against device properties.
Some of the keys also match against properties of the parent devices in sysfs,
not only the device that has generated the event. If multiple keys that match
a parent device are specified in a single rule, all these keys must match at
one and the same parent device.</para>
