Hello, I would like to write a udev rule that manages it own device numbering scheme and creates symlinks with continuous numbers.
I already know how to write a udev rule that selects devices, e.g. based on manufacturer and product attributes, and creates a symlink for each matching device. Using the string substitution %n, I can also append a unique number to each symlink. Now, my problem with %n is that I assume the numbers used in the symlinks will not necessarily start with 0 and might not be continuous: If my rules looks at devices dev0, dev1, dev2, and dev3 and matches dev1 and dev3, I guess I'll end up with symlinks sym1 and sym3. I'm looking for a way to create symlinks sym0 and sym1. Are there any provisions in udev to achieve this? How should a rule (or set of rules?) look like that does what I want?
