udev_ref ()

struct udev *
udev_ref (struct udev *udev);

Take a reference of the udev library context.

udev_unref ()

struct udev *
udev_unref (struct udev *udev);

Drop a reference of the udev library context. If the refcount reaches zero, the resources of the context will be released.

udev_new ()

struct udev *
udev_new (void);

Create udev library context. This reads the udev configuration file, and fills in the default values.

The initial refcount is 1, and needs to be decremented to release the resources of the udev library context.

udev_set_log_fn ()

void
udev_set_log_fn (struct udev *udev,
                 void (*log_fn) (struct udev *udev, int priority, const char *file, int line, const char *fn, const char *format, va_list args));

This function is deprecated.

udev_get_log_priority ()

int
udev_get_log_priority (struct udev *udev);

This function is deprecated.

udev_set_log_priority ()

void
udev_set_log_priority (struct udev *udev,
                       int priority);

This function is deprecated.

udev_get_userdata ()

void *
udev_get_userdata (struct udev *udev);

Retrieve stored data pointer from library context. This might be useful to access from callbacks.

udev_set_userdata ()

void
udev_set_userdata (struct udev *udev,
                   void *userdata);

Store custom userdata in the library context.

struct udev

struct udev;

Opaque object representing the library context.
