18 | The devfsd programme is a daemon, run by the system boot scripts which |
| 19 | can provide for intelligent management of device entries in the Device |
| 20 | Filesystem (devfs). |

22 | As part of its setup phase devfsd creates certain symbolic links which |
| 23 | are compiled into the code. These links are required by |
| 24 | /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt. This behaviour may change in |
| 25 | future revisions. |

27 | devfsd will read the special control file .devfsd in a mounted devfs, |
| 28 | listening for the creation and removal of device entries (this is |
| 29 | termed a change operation). For each change operation, devfsd can take |
| 30 | many actions. The daemon will normally run itself in the background |
| 31 | and send messages to syslog. |

33 | The opening of the syslog service is automatically delayed until |
| 34 | /dev/log is created. |

36 | At startup, before switching to daemon mode, devfsd will scan the |
| 37 | mounted device tree and will generate synthetic REGISTER events for |
| 38 | each leaf node. |
