hum, so use udevadm control --reload is deprecated ?
I review udev rules recently in one of my packages and systemd have 2
services: systemd-udevd.service and systemd-udev-trigger.service
trigger.service have this command:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/udevadm trigger --type=subsystems --action=add ;
/usr/bin/udevadm trigger --type=devices --action=add
and caused many problems with last systemd update (if I am correct) ,
so we shouldn't restart trigger.service service .
I think you're confusing two different things...
The first is whether udev loads the new rules - that should happen
automatically but could be done manually with the "udevadm control
--reload" command.
The second is whether those new/updated rules are applied to existing
devices - they will always be applied when reacting to future
add/change/remove events but you need to replay events with "udevadm
trigger" to apply them to existing devices.
I suspect that the udev people would tell you it's a bad idea to do that
though, as you unless you target the trigger very narrowly you are going
to make all sorts of things happen. A global "add" trigger for example
is basically pretending that all devices have suddenly been plugged in
without being removed first.
