Hi All:<br>
I did some search on "how does linux kernel detect hardware?" and got what udev is.<br>
I konw Linux kernel will send a netlink message to udevd.<br>
But I still do not understand how the kernel can decide to send a netlink message.<br>
What happend before the netlink message?<br>
Take an usb stick for example, what will happen and what the kernel do from the very beginning of it been plugged in?<br>
Thank you for advance. Any references will be appreciated.<br>
