Subject: hotplug event on fdisk?
Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2005 17:57:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <42D3E880.6060902@imc-berlin.de> (raw)
Hi,
I noticed that /sbin/hotplug is called by the kernel when I am doing
fdisk -l /dev/hda
to do a "remove" and then do "add" again:
~ # fdisk -l /dev/hda
kobject_hotplug
kobject_hotplug: /sbin/hotplug block seq=574 HOME=/
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin ACTION=remove DEVPATH=/block/hda/hda1
SUBSYSTEM=block
hda: hda1
kobject_hotplug
kobject_hotplug: /sbin/hotplug block seq=575 HOME=/
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin ACTION=add DEVPATH=/block/hda/hda1
SUBSYSTEM=block
Disk /dev/hda: 512 MB, 512483328 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 993 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 993 500440+ 6 FAT16
Why is it so? And what is the system suposed to do? Actually remove the device?
