+# The use of these rules is not recommended or supported.
+# In a world where devices can come and go at any time, the devfs scheme
+# of simple device enumeration does not help _anything_. Just forget about
+# it. Use custom rules to name your device or look at the persistent device
+# naming scheme, which is implemented for disks and add your subsystem.

# There are a number of modifiers that are allowed to be used in some of the
# fields. See the udev man page for a full description of them.
