<refsect1><title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>udevd listens to kernel uevents and passes the incoming events to
udev. It ensures the correct event order and takes care, that events for child
devices are delayed until the parent event has finished the device handling.
The behavior of the running daemon can be changed with
<command>udevadm control</command>.</para>

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--debug-trace</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Run all events completely serialized. This may be useful if udev triggers
actions or loads kernel modules which cause problems and a slow but continuous
operation is needed, where no events are processed in parallel.

<varlistentry>
<term><option>--resolve-names</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Specify when udevd should resolve names of users and groups.
When set to <option>early</option> (the default) names will be
resolved when the rules are parsed. When set to
<option>late</option> names will be resolved for every event.
When set to <option>never</option> names will never be resolved
and all devices will be owned by root.</para>
