ID will walk up the device chain + but it matches on "KERNEL names" too. And ID and SYSFS can only match + on the same device in the chain. That's pretty hard to explain and to + understand. Same for SUBSYSTEM and BUS. + + +These things are deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future +udev version: + + o remove broken %e enumeration + (simple enumerations can't work and should go) + + o remove devfs naming scheme rules and scripts + + o remove MODALIAS + $modalias + (ENV{MODALIAS}, $env{MODALIAS}, $sysfs{modalias} will do it) + + o remove udevstart, udevsend + (we rely on the kernel "uevent" triggers of kernel 2.6.15 and no longer + want to guess event properties from sysfs like udevstart is doing it) +
