NAME
udevd - event managing daemon
SYNOPSIS
udevd [--daemon] [--debug-trace] [--verbose] [--version] [--help]
udevcontrol command
DESCRIPTION
udevd listens to kernel uevents and passes the incoming events to udev. It ensures the right event order and takes care, that events for child devices are delayed until the parent has finished the device handling.
OPTIONS
--daemon
Detach and run in the background.
--debug-trace
Run all events completely serialized. This may be useful if udev triggers actions or loads kernel modules which cause problems and a slow but continuous operation is needed, where no events are processed in parallel.
--verbose
Print log messages to stdout.
--version
Print version number.
log_priority=value
Set the internal log level of udevd. Valid values are the numerical syslog priorities or their textual representations:
err,
info
and
debug.
stop_exec_queue
Signal udevd to stop executing new events. Incoming events will be queued.
start_exec_queue
Signal udevd to enable the execution of events.
reload_rules
Signal udevd to reload the rules from the config.
env var=value
Set global variable.
max_childs
Set the maximum number of events, udevd will handle at the same time.
max_childs_running
Set the maximum number of events, which are allowed to run at the same time.
ENVIRONMENT
UDEV_LOG
Overrides the syslog priority specified in the config file.
