udev

A rule-based device node and kernel event manager

Udev creates and removes device nodes in /dev for devices discovered or removed from the system. It receives events via kernel netlink messages and dispatches them according to rules in /lib/udev/rules.d/. Matching rules may name a device node, create additional symlinks to the node, call tools to initialize a device, or load needed kernel modules.
