9 So how does one determine search targets for KERNEL matches in udev rules by
10 looking at /sys, or examining it with udevinfo? Please explain.
11
12 udevinfo gives lots of info on BUS, ID and various SYSFS search terms, but
13 I've never seen anything that would give me definitive terms to match with
14 the KERNEL search field in udev rules.
15
16 I did some searching for the answer on google and didn't find anything there
17 either, except for a lot of pages stating taht KERNEL is used to "match the
18 kernel device name" without explaining where where the udev subsystem goes
19 to find such a match.
20
21 This is probably OT for this list, and perhaps I would do better to ask it
22 somewhere else.
