Hello, I am looking into how to integrate udev into an embedded linux system that is currently using /sbin/hotplug and associated hotplug scripts. Udev is meant to be used to handle stuff that the current hotplug scripts do not do. During testing, I discovered that udev will create device nodes (for example, for block devices) in the /dev directory even when I did not define any udev rules to do this. Is this the default udev behaviour? My current /sbin/hotplug scripts already handle the device nodes and I would like udev not to do this. I have tried to stop this by using OPTIONS+="ignore_device" and this seems to work. But for some types of devices, I still want udev to take some action (like run an external program) but not create device nodes. I tried to get this behaviour by using RUN+="/usr/bin/my_program", OPTIONS+="last_rule", but udev still appears to create the device node. Is it possible to stop udev from creating device nodes by default?
