upstart-udev-bridge(8)



NAME

   upstart-udev-bridge - Bridge between Upstart and udev

SYNOPSIS

   upstart-udev-bridge [OPTIONS]...

DESCRIPTION

   upstart-udev-bridge  receives  information  about  kernel  uevents that
   udev(8) has completed and creates init(8) events for them.

   It emits events which match the pattern "S-device-A" where 'S'  is  the
   udev  subsystem  and  'A'  is  one  of added, changed or removed, which
   correspond to the past tense of the udev 'action'.

   See udev(7) and for further details.

   Assuming /sys is mounted, possible values for subsystem for your system
   are viewable via /sys/class/.

OPTIONS

   --daemon
          Detach and run in the background.

   --debug
          Enable debugging output.

   --help Show brief usage summary.

   --no-strip
          Do  not  modify udev message contents. By default, all udev data
          will have non-printable bytes removed. This option  reverts  the
          behaviour  to  not modifying the data in any way. This option is
          not recommended since specifying  it  could  result  in  udev(7)
          events  not  being  emitted as Upstart events should any of your
          hardware expose non-printable characters to the kernel. You  can
          establish   whether   this   is  happening  by  running  without
          specifying this option but with the --debug option.

   --verbose
          Enable verbose output.

EXAMPLES

   Some examples of Upstart events generated by this bridge:

   net-device-added
          Event emitted when a network device is added.

   net-device-removed
          Event emitted when a network device is removed.

   graphics-device-added
          Event emitted when a graphics device is available to the system.
