Subject: udev not running new rules
Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2007 13:58:35 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1186927115.3225.10.camel@tigger> (raw)


I am using Debian Etch.

I have the directory in /etc/udev/rules.d

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   20 2007-06-19 16:52 020_permissions.rules -> ../permissions.rules
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   13 2007-06-19 16:52 udev.rules -> ../udev.rules
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  138 2007-07-29 14:28 z19_persistent-anet.rules
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   25 2007-06-19 16:52 z20_persistent-input.rules -> ../persistent-input.rules
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   19 2007-06-19 16:52 z20_persistent.rules -> ../persistent.rules
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1070 2007-06-19 17:09 z25_persistent-cd.rules
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   23 2007-06-26 00:57 z25_persistent-net.rules -> ../persistent-net.rules
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   12 2007-06-19 16:52 z50_run.rules -> ../run.rules
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   16 2007-06-19 16:52 z55_hotplug.rules -> ../hotplug.rules
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   29 2007-06-19 16:52 z75_cd-aliases-generator.rules -> ../cd-aliases-generator.rules

Initially, the file ../persistent-net.rules does not exist.

The rule z19_persistent-anet.rules is:

PROGRAM="/var/www/lib/produce_persistent_rules.pl"

The object of the program is to rename one of the NICs, and simply produces a rule
SUBSYSTEMS="pci", KERNELS="0000:09:01.0", NAME="ctl"

It runs a Perl program that creates the file ../persistent-net.rules.

After a reboot, the file is created, but udev claims that it doesn't exist.

After a second reboot, udev manages to read the file successfully.

Killing udev and restarting doesn't help.

It seems that udev firstly checks which files exist. How can I get the new rule set to be run as soon as it is created?

Thanks,

Peter
