1. Target audience. It is impossible to understand udev and kernel fully without reading the source. So, at least for some sections, a working knowledge of C must be assumed. AFAIK, this is unacceptable for the LFS book.
Indeed, and in fact, I think it is unacceptable for anywhere other than upstream. i.e. patches should be made to udev to improve the man page and/or other documentation it installs so as having to understand the C code is no longer a requirement to understanding how to configure it to meet one's needs. That said, if such explanatory material can be written I will gladly add it as an appendix to the book so as at least it is available to our readers.
