<refsect1><title>Description</title>
<para>udev supplies the system software with device events, manages permissions
of device nodes and may create additional symlinks in the <filename>/dev</filename>
directory, or renames network interfaces. The kernel usually just assigns unpredictable
device names based on the order of discovery. Meaningful symlinks or network device
names provide a way to reliably identify devices based on their properties or
current configuration.</para>
<para>The udev daemon, <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-udevd.service</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>, receives device uevents directly from
the kernel whenever a device is added or removed from the system, or it changes its
state. When udev receives a device event, it matches its configured set of rules
against various device attributes to identify the device. Rules that match may
provide additional device information to be stored in the udev database or
to be used to create meaningful symlink names.</para>
<para>All device information udev processes is stored in the udev database and
sent out to possible event subscribers. Access to all stored data and the event
sources is provided by the library libudev.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1><title>Rules Files</title>
<para>The udev rules are read from the files located in the system rules directories
<filename>/usr/lib/udev/rules.d</filename> and <filename>/usr/local/lib/udev/rules.d</filename>, the
volatile runtime directory <filename>/run/udev/rules.d</filename> and the local administration
directory <filename>/etc/udev/rules.d</filename>. All rules files are collectively sorted and
processed in lexical order, regardless of the directories in which they live. However, files with
identical filenames replace each other. Files in <filename>/etc</filename> have the highest priority,
files in <filename>/run</filename> take precedence over files with the same name under
<filename>/usr</filename>. This can be used to override a system-supplied rules file with a local
file if needed; a symlink in <filename>/etc</filename> with the same name as a rules file in
<filename>/usr/lib</filename>, pointing to <filename>/dev/null</filename>, disables the rules file
entirely. Rule files must have the extension <filename>.rules</filename>; other extensions are
ignored.</para>
<para>Every line in the rules file contains at least one key-value pair.
Except for empty lines or lines beginning with <literal>#</literal>, which are ignored.
There are two kinds of keys: match and assignment.
If all match keys match against their values, the rule gets applied and the
assignment keys get the specified values assigned.</para>
<para>A matching rule may rename a network interface, add symlinks
pointing to the device node, or run a specified program as part of
the event handling.</para>
<para>A rule consists of a comma-separated list of one or more key-value pairs.
Each key has a distinct operation, depending on the used operator. Valid
operators are:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>==</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>Compare for equality.</para>

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
<para>The following key names can be used to match against device properties.
Some of the keys also match against properties of the parent devices in sysfs,
not only the device that has generated the event. If multiple keys that match
a parent device are specified in a single rule, all these keys must match at
one and the same parent device.</para>

<para>Matches any single character specified within the brackets. For
example, the pattern string <literal>tty[SR]</literal>
would match either <literal>ttyS</literal> or <literal>ttyR</literal>.
Ranges are also supported via the <literal>-</literal> character.
For example, to match on the range of all digits, the pattern
<literal>[0-9]</literal> could be used. If the first character
following the <literal>[</literal> is a <literal>!</literal>,
any characters not enclosed are matched.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>|</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>Separates alternative patterns. For example, the pattern string
<literal>abc|x*</literal> would match either <literal>abc</literal>

<para>The following keys can get values assigned:</para>
<variablelist class='udev-directives'>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>NAME</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>The name to use for a network interface. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.link</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for a higher-level mechanism for setting the interface name.
The name of a device node cannot be changed by udev, only additional
symlinks can be created.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>SYMLINK</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>The name of a symlink targeting the node. Every matching rule adds
this value to the list of symlinks to be created.</para>
<para>The set of characters to name a symlink is limited. Allowed
characters are <literal>0-9A-Za-z#+-.:=@_/</literal>, valid UTF-8 character
sequences, and <literal>\x00</literal> hex encoding. All other
characters are replaced by a <literal>_</literal> character.</para>
<para>Multiple symlinks may be specified by separating the names by the
space character. In case multiple devices claim the same name, the link
always points to the device with the highest link_priority. If the current
device goes away, the links are re-evaluated and the device with the
next highest link_priority becomes the owner of the link. If no
link_priority is specified, the order of the devices (and which one of
them owns the link) is undefined.</para>
<para>Symlink names must never conflict with the kernel's default device
node names, as that would result in unpredictable behavior.

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>TAG</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>Attach a tag to a device. This is used to filter events for users
of libudev's monitor functionality, or to enumerate a group of tagged
devices. The implementation can only work efficiently if only a few
tags are attached to a device. It is only meant to be used in
contexts with specific device filter requirements, and not as a

<literal>:=</literal>, it replaces any previous contents of the list. Please note that both
<literal>program</literal> and <literal>builtin</literal> types described below use a single

</variablelist>
<para>The program name and following arguments are separated by spaces. Single quotes can be
used to specify arguments with spaces.</para>
<para>This can only be used for very short-running foreground tasks. Running an event process for
a long period of time may block all further events for this or a dependent device.</para>
<para>Note that running programs that access the network or mount/unmount filesystems is not
allowed inside of udev rules, due to the default sandbox that is enforced on
<filename>systemd-udevd.service</filename>.</para>
<para>Starting daemons or other long-running processes is not allowed; the forked processes,
detached or not, will be unconditionally killed after the event handling has finished. In order
to activate long-running processes from udev rules, provide a service unit and pull it in from a
udev device using the <varname>SYSTEMD_WANTS</varname> device property. See
