Subject: NAME{all_partitions}, how does it work?

Message-ID: <20040228194404.GA26312@sci.fi> (raw)


I have a multiple memory card reader thing for USB with four slots. I'm
using this currently in udev.rules:

# Iwill 6-in-1 memory card reader
BUS="scsi", SYSFS_vendor="6-in-1  ", SYSFS_model="CF/MD           ", NAME="cf%n"
BUS="scsi", SYSFS_vendor="6-in-1  ", SYSFS_model="SM              ", NAME="sm%n"
BUS="scsi", SYSFS_vendor="6-in-1  ", SYSFS_model="SD/MMC          ", NAME="sd_mmc%n"
BUS="scsi", SYSFS_vendor="6-in-1  ", SYSFS_model="MS              ", NAME="ms%n"

And it works, except that if there are no cards when I plug the reader
in, no devices for partitions are created and apparently plugging in a
memory card in the reader is not a hotplug event.

The manpage says to use NAME{all_partitions} to get all 15 partitions
of a block device created, so I tried

BUS="scsi", SYSFS_vendor="6-in-1  ", SYSFS_model="CF/MD           ", NAME="cf%n{all_partitions}" 

and various other things, but all I was able to get was 

a) no device created
b) /udev/cf{all_partitions} was created
c) /udev/cf was created

So how is this really supposed to be used? Is it even a thing that could
help me?
