45.Os
46.Sh NAME
47.Nm devd.conf
48.Nd configuration file for
49.Xr devd 8
50.Sh DESCRIPTION
51.Ss General Syntax
52A
53.Xr devd 8
54configuration consists of two general features, statements
55and comments.
56All statements end with a semicolon.
57Many statements can contain substatements, which are also
58terminated with a semicolon.
59.Pp
60The following statements are supported:
61.Bl -tag -width ".Ic options"
62.It Ic attach
63Specifies various matching criteria and actions to perform when
64a newly attached device matches said criteria.
65.It Ic detach
66Specifies various matching criteria and actions to perform when
67a newly detached device matches said criteria.
68.It Ic nomatch
69Specifies various matching criteria and actions to perform when
70no device driver currently loaded in the kernel claims a (new)
71device.
72.It Ic notify
73Specifies various matching criteria and actions to perform when the kernel
74sends an event notification to userland.
75.It Ic options
76Specifies various options and parameters for the operation of
77.Xr devd 8 .
78.El
79.Pp
80Statements may occur in any order in the configuration file, and may be
81repeated as often as required.
82Further details on the syntax and meaning of each statement and their
83substatements are explained below.
84.Pp
85Each statement, except
86.Ic options
87has a priority (an arbitrary number) associated with it, where
88.Ql 0
89is defined as the lowest priority.
90If two statements match the same event, only the action of the statement with
91highest priority will be executed.
92In this way generic statements can be overridden for devices or
93notifications that require special attention.
94.Pp
95The general syntax of a statement is:
96.Bd -literal -offset indent
97statement priority {
98	substatement "value";
99	...
100	substatement "value";
101};
102.Ed
103.Ss Sub-statements
104The following sub-statements are supported within the
105.Ic options
106statement.
107.Bl -tag -width ".Ic directory"
108.It Ic directory Qq Ar /some/path ;
109Adds the given directory to the list of directories from which
110.Xr devd 8
111will read all files named "*.conf" as further
112configuration files.
113Any number of
114.Ic directory
115statements can be used.
116.It Ic pid-file Qq Pa /var/run/devd.pid ;
117Specifies PID file.
118.It Ic set Ar regexp-name Qq Ar (some|regexp) ;
119Creates a regular expression and assigns it to the variable
120.Ar regexp-name .
121The variable is available throughout the rest of
122the configuration file.
123If the string begins with
124.Ql \&! ,
125it matches if the regular expression formed by the rest of the string
126does not match.
127All regular expressions have an implicit
128.Ql ^$
129around them.
130.El
131.Pp
132The following sub-statements are supported within the
133.Ic attach
134and
135.Ic detach
136statements.
137.Bl -tag -width ".Ic directory"
138.It Ic action Qq Ar command ;
139Command to execute upon a successful match.
140Example
141.Dq Li "/etc/pccard_ether $device-name start" .
142.It Ic class Qq Ar string ;
143This is shorthand for
144.Dq Ic match Qo Li class Qc Qq Ar string .
145.It Ic device-name Qq string ;
146This is shorthand for
147.Dq Ic match Qo Li device-name Qc Qq Ar string .
148This matches a device named
149.Ar string ,
150which is allowed to be a regular expression or a variable previously created
151containing a regular expression.
152The
153.Dq Li device-name
154variable
155is available for later use with the
156.Ic action
157statement.
158.It Ic match Qo Ar variable Qc Qq Ar value ;
159Matches the content of
160.Ar value
161against
162.Ar variable ;
163the content of
164.Ar value
165may be a regular expression.
166Not required during
167.Ic attach
168nor
169.Ic detach
170events since the
171.Ic device-name
172statement takes care of all device matching.
173For a partial list of variables, see below.
174.It Ic media-type Qq Ar string ;
175For network devices,
176.Ic media-type
177will match devices that have the given media type.
178Valid media types are:
179.Dq Li Ethernet ,
180.Dq Li Tokenring ,
181.Dq Li FDDI ,
182.Dq Li 802.11 ,
183and
184.Dq Li ATM .
185.It Ic subdevice Qq Ar string ;
186This is shorthand for
187.Dq Ic match Qo Li subdevice Qc Qq Ar string .
188.El
189.Pp
190The following sub-statements are supported within the
191.Ic nomatch
192statement.
193.Bl -tag -width ".Ic directory"
194.It Ic action Qq Ar command ;
195Same as above.
196.It Ic match Qo Ar variable Qc Qq Ar value ;
197Matches the content of
198.Ar value
199against
200.Ar variable ;
201the content of
202.Ar value
203may be a regular expression.
204For a partial list of variables, see below.
205.El
206.Pp
207The following sub-statements are supported within the
208.Ic notify
209statement.
210The
211.Dq Li notify
212variable is available inside this statement and contains, a value, depending
213on which system and subsystem that delivered the event.
214.Bl -tag -width ".Ic directory"
215.It Ic action Qq Ar command ;
216Command to execute upon a successful match.
217Example
218.Dq Li "/etc/rc.d/power_profile $notify" .
219.It Ic match Qo Ar system | subsystem | type | notify Qc Qq Ar value ;
220Any number of
221.Ic match
222statements can exist within a
223.Ic notify
224statement;
225.Ar value
226can be either a fixed string or a regular expression.
227Below is a list of available systems, subsystems, and types.
228.It Ic media-type Qq Ar string ;

233with the
234.Ic match

619.Ss Comments
620Comments may appear anywhere that whitespace may appear in a
621configuration file.
622To appeal to programmers of all kinds, they can
623be written in C, C++, or shell/Perl constructs.
624.Pp
625C-style comments start with the two characters
626.Ql /*
627(slash, star) and end with
628.Ql */
629(star, slash).
630Because they are completely delimited with these characters,
631they can be used to comment only a portion of a line or to span
632multiple lines.
633.Pp
634C-style comments cannot be nested.
635For example, the following is
636not valid because the entire comment ends with the first
637.Ql */ :
638.Bd -literal -offset indent
639/* This is the start of a comment.
640   This is still part of the comment.
641/* This is an incorrect attempt at nesting a comment. */
642   This is no longer in any comment. */
643.Ed
644.Pp
645C++-style comments start with the two characters
646.Ql //
647(slash, slash) and continue to the end of the physical line.
648They cannot be continued across multiple physical lines; to have
649one logical comment span multiple lines, each line must use the
650.Ql //
651pair.
652For example:
653.Bd -literal -offset indent
654// This is the start of a comment.  The next line
655// is a new comment, even though it is logically
656// part of the previous comment.
