Title:
udev and udevadm documentation missing
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
The man page for udevadm neglects to mention options which seem to
only be documented in stackexchange. E.g.
udevadm monitor --environment
udevadm control --reload-rules
From the man page, it's unclear what the difference is between
/udevadm trigger/ and /udevadm test/. The description should tell the
user enough to work out which one they need to use for a certain
situation. E.g. I wrote a new rule and it's not triggering. Is the
trigger command or the test command suitable for diagnosing the
problem?
The documentation in /usr/share/doc/udev/ is strangely specific to
some esoteric network interface naming. There is no basic description
of what udev's purpose is or what its capabilities are. One of the
most notable tasks is to react to the insertion of USB drives, and
there is no mention of this. The /etc/fstab table also has a role in
mounting USB drives, but there is no mention as to how udev works with
/etc/fstab. I've found that if I remove a line in /etc/fstab and
attach the drive pertaining to that line, it gets mounted anyway. If
the fstab file supercedes udev, then this should be mentioned in the
documentation.
