NAME

       upstart-udev-bridge - Bridge between Upstart and udev

SYNOPSIS

       upstart-udev-bridge [OPTIONS]...

DESCRIPTION

       upstart-udev-bridge receives information about kernel uevents that udev(8) has completed and creates init(8) events for them.

       It  emits events which match the pattern "S-device-A" where 'S' is the udev subsystem and 'A' is the udev action.  See udev(7) and for fur-
       ther details.

       Assuming /sys is mounted, possible values for subsystem for your system are viewable via /sys/class/.

EXAMPLES

       net-device-added
	      Event emitted when a network device is added.

       net-device-removed
	      Event emitted when a network device is removed.

       graphics-card-added
	      Event emitted when a graphics device is available to the system.

NOTES

       This is a temporary tool until init(8) itself gains the functionality to read them directly; you should not rely on its behaviour.
