•
last_rule tells udev to ignore all later rules.
•
ignore_device tells udev to ignore this event completely.
•
ignore_remove tells udev to ignore all later remove events for the de-
vice.
•
all_partitions tells udev to create device nodes for all available
partitions on a block device.
12.7 Persistent Device Naming
The dynamic device directory and the udev rules infrastructure make it possible to
provide stable names for all disk devices—regardless of their order of recognition or
the connection used for the device. Every appropriate block device the kernel creates
is examined by tools with special knowledge about certain buses, drive types or le
systems. Along with the dynamic kernel-provided device node name, udev maintains
classes of persistent symbolic links pointing to the device:
