Description Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-11-20 16:34:29 UTC
I tried to use this rule:
> attach 0 {
>         match "vendor"  "0x04b4";
>         match "product" "0x6022";
>         action "/bin/echo hello $device-name >> /tmp/dev.txt";
> };

but it doesn't work (no /tmp/dev.txt appears).


But this rule works:
> notify 100 {
>         match "system"          "USB";
>         match "subsystem"       "DEVICE";
>         match "type"            "ATTACH";
>         match "vendor"  "0x04b4";
>         match "product" "0x6022";
>         action "/bin/echo hello $device-name >> /tmp/dev.txt";
> };


Some other system-supplied rules in /etc/devd.conf use the first form too, which means that they also wouldn't work when the matching device would appear?

Additionally, $device-name expands to the empty string for in the above command.
