Package description for 'udev'

A Userspace Implementation of devfs

 udev is a program that replaces the functionality of devfs (only providing
 /dev entries for devices that are in the system at any moment in time), and
 allows for features that were previously not able to be done through devfs
 alone, such as:
 · Persistent naming for devices when they move around the device tree.
 · Notification of external systems of device changes.
 · A flexible device naming scheme.
 · Allow the kernel to use dynamic major and minor numbers
 · Move all naming policy out of the kernel.
