The files in this directory are read by udev(7) and used when events
|
||
|
|
are performed by the kernel. The udev daemon watches this directory
|
||
|
|
with inotify so that changes to these files are automatically picked
|
||
|
|
up, for this reason they must be files and not symlinks to another
|
||
|
|
location as in the case in Debian.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Packages do not generally install rules here, this directory is for
|
||
|
|
local rules. If you want to override behaviour of package-supplied
|
||
|
|
rules, which can be found in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d, you can do one of
|
||
|
|
two things:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) Write your own rules in this directory that assign the name,
|
||
|
|
symlinks, permissions, etc. that you want. Pick a number higher
|
||
|
|
than the rules you want to override, and yours will be used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) Copy the file from /usr/lib/udev/rules.d and edit it here; you
|
||
|
|
should generally only do this if you want to prevent a program
|
||
|
|
from being run.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the ordering of files in this directory are not important to you,
|
||
|
|
it's recommended that you simply name your files "descriptive-name.rules"
|
||
|
|
such that they are processed AFTER all numbered rules in both this
|
||
|
|
directory and /usr/lib/udev/rules.d and thus override anything set there.
