udev udevd 8 udevdevent managing daemon udevd --daemon --children-max --debug --version --resolve-names=early|late|never --help udevd listens to kernel uevents and passes the incoming events to udev. It ensures the correct event order and takes care, that events for child devices are delayed until the parent event has finished the device handling. The behavior of the running daemon can be changed with udevadm control. --daemon Detach and run in the background. --children-max Limit the number of parallel executed events. --debug Print debug messages to stderr. --resolve-names Specify when udevd should resolve names of users and groups. When set to early (the default) names will be resolved when the rules are parsed. When set to late names will be resolved for every event. When set to never names will never be resolved and all devices will be owned by root. --version Print version number. --help Print help text. UDEV_LOG Overrides the syslog priority specified in the config file. Written by Kay Sievers kay.sievers@vrfy.org. udev7 , udevadm8
