config UDEV
bool "udev"
config UDEV_UDEV
bool "udev"
depends on UDEV
help
udev provides a dynamic device directory containing only
the files for actually present devices. It creates or
removes device node files in the /dev directory, or it
renames network interfaces.
Usually udev runs as udevd(8) and receives uevents directly
from the kernel if a device is added or removed form the system.
If udev receives a device event, it matches its configured
rules against the available device attributes provided in
sysfs to identify the device. Rules that match, may provide
additional device information or specify a device node name
and multiple symlink names and instruct udev to run
additional programs as part of the device event handling.
config UDEV_UDEVD
bool "udevd"
depends on UDEV
help
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.
config UDEV_INFO
bool "udevinfo"
depends on UDEV
help
udevinfo queries the udev database for device
information stored in the udev database. It
can also query the properties of a device from
its sysfs representation to help creating udev
rules that match this device.

bool "udevsend"

config UDEV_TEST
bool "udevtest"
depends on UDEV
help
udevtest simulates a udev run for the given device
and prints out the name of the node udev would have
created, or the name of the network interface, that
would have been renamend.
