7 The environment must provide the following variables:
11 signifies the connection or disconnection of a device.
14 The sysfs devpath of the device without the mountpoint but a leading slash.
17 The sequence number of the event provided by the kernel.
18 If unset, the event bypasses the queue and will be executed immediately.
21 allows the serialization of
23 events. The events generated by the kernel may arrive in random order
24 in userspace, that makes it neccessary to reorder them.
27 takes care of the kernel supplied sequence number and arranges the events for
28 execution in the correct order. Missing sequences delay the execution of the
29 following events until a timeout is reached.
33 instance is executed in the background. All further events for the same device
34 are delayed until the execution is finished. This way there will never be more
35 than one instance running for a single device at the same time.
38 receives the events from
44 isn't already running,
