Hotplug2 Description

A trivial replacement of some of the UDev functionality in a tiny pack. Hotplug2 project is a trivial replacement of some of the UDev functionality in a tiny pack, intended for Linux early userspace: Init RAM FS and InitRD. The binary is (x86, dynamically linked against glibc) 15 KiB with -Os (v0.7).Yet it includes ability to parse rules and execute actions accordingly. It basically takes the best from both worlds -- the flexibility of udev with the distributing events design of hotplug. It can be used to create devices or to just load modules (which is it's primary goal).I have to re-emphasize that this is not an udev replacement for desktop boxes. This is udev replacement for specific cases, that is early userspace and possibly embedded devices. That's it.
