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). | |
21 | ||
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. | |
26 | ||
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. | |
32 | ||
33 | The opening of the syslog service is automatically delayed until | |
34 | /dev/log is created. | |
35 | ||
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. | |
