Example of udev rules — The Linux Kernel documentation

# Example of udev rules

>     # These rules tell udev what device nodes to create for aoe support.
>     # They may be installed along the following lines.  Check the section
>     # 8 udev manpage to see whether your udev supports SUBSYSTEM, and
>     # whether it uses one or two equal signs for SUBSYSTEM and KERNEL.
