Description:
|
|
Enable passing additional variables for synthetic uevents that
|
|
are generated by writing /sys/.../uevent file.
|
|
|
|
Recognized extended format is::
|
|
|
|
ACTION [UUID [KEY=VALUE ...]
|
|
|
|
The ACTION is compulsory - it is the name of the uevent
|
|
action (``add``, ``change``, ``remove``). There is no change
|
|
compared to previous functionality here. The rest of the
|
|
extended format is optional.
|
|
|
|
You need to pass UUID first before any KEY=VALUE pairs.
|
|
The UUID must be in ``xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx``
|
|
format where 'x' is a hex digit. The UUID is considered to be
|
|
a transaction identifier so it's possible to use the same UUID
|
|
value for one or more synthetic uevents in which case we
|
|
logically group these uevents together for any userspace
|
|
listeners. The UUID value appears in uevent as
|
|
``SYNTH_UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx`` environment
|
|
variable.
|
|
|
|
If UUID is not passed in, the generated synthetic uevent gains
|
|
``SYNTH_UUID=0`` environment variable automatically.
|
|
|
|
The KEY=VALUE pairs can contain alphanumeric characters only.
|
|
|
|
It's possible to define zero or more pairs - each pair is then
|
|
delimited by a space character ' '. Each pair appears in
|
|
synthetic uevent as ``SYNTH_ARG_KEY=VALUE``. That means the KEY
|
|
name gains ``SYNTH_ARG_`` prefix to avoid possible collisions
|
|
with existing variables.
|
|
|
|
Example of valid sequence written to the uevent file::
|
|
|
|
add fe4d7c9d-b8c6-4a70-9ef1-3d8a58d18eed A=1 B=abc
|
|
|
|
This generates synthetic uevent including these variables::
|
|
|
|
ACTION=add
|
|
SYNTH_ARG_A=1
|
|
SYNTH_ARG_B=abc
|
|
SYNTH_UUID=fe4d7c9d-b8c6-4a70-9ef1-3d8a58d18eed
