The kernel creates /dev files directly in devtmpfs. When that happens, yes the kernel sends a uevent. If a user creates a /dev file on their own, no, no ueven happens. > Does a dev file creation considered as a "device attached" to the > machine? Not at all, it is totally independent and does not mean that. What problem are you having with the current kernel and /dev files? thanks, greg k-h
