This deprecates the /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug file, as all this stuff should be in /sys some day, right? :) In /sys/kernel/ we have now uevent_seqnum and uevent_helper. The seqnum is no longer used by udev, as the version for this kernel depends on netlink which events will never get out-of-order. Recent udev versions disable the /sbin/hotplug helper with an init script, cause it leads to OOM on big boxes by running hundreds of shells in parallel. It should be done now by: echo "" > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper (Note that "-n" does not work, cause neighter proc nor sysfs support truncate().)
