udev & hotplug

[Matias Feliciano]

There is something I can't understand.
How udev and hotplug work together ?

# cat /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
/sbin/hotplug

# find etc/hotplug.d/ etc/dev.d/
etc/hotplug.d/
etc/hotplug.d/default
etc/hotplug.d/default/10-udev.hotplug
etc/hotplug.d/default/20-hal.hotplug
etc/hotplug.d/default/default.hotplug
etc/dev.d/
etc/dev.d/default
etc/dev.d/default/pam_console.dev
etc/dev.d/default/10-hal.dev
etc/dev.d/net
etc/dev.d/net/hotplug.dev


hotplug call udev, udev call hal, then hotplug call hal also, udev use
hotplug which use udev, etc, etc...

Can someone explain how this works. Please.

In /etc/udev/udev.conf, udev_remove_devicenodes is set to "no". Why ?
