<listitem>
<para>The name of a symlink targeting the node. Every matching rule adds
this value to the list of symlinks to be created. Multiple symlinks may be
specified by separating the names by the space character. In case multiple
devices claim the same name, the link always points to the device with
the highest link_priority. If the current device goes away, the links are
re-evaluated and the device with the next highest link_priority becomes the owner of
the link. If no link_priority is specified, the order of the devices (and
which one of them owns the link) is undefined. Also, symlink names must
never conflict with the kernel's default device node names, as that would
result in unpredictable behavior.

<para>The set of characters to name a symlink is limited. Allowed
characters are [0-9A-Za-z#+-.:=@_/], valid utf8 character sequences,
and "\x00" hex encoding. All other characters are replaced by
a '_' character.</para>
