UDEVD(8)		      udevd, udevcontrol		      UDEVD(8)

NAME
       udevd - event managing daemon

SYNOPSIS
       udevd [--daemon]

       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.

       log_priority=value
	      udevcontrol can dynamically set the log level of udevd. Valid
	      values are the numerical syslog priorities or their textual
	      representations: err, info and debug.

       stop_exec_queue
	      udevcontrol stops the execution of events from udevd.

       start_exec_queue
	      udevcontrol starts the execution of events from udevd.

ENVIRONMENT
       UDEV_LOG
	      Overrides the syslog priority specified in the config file.
