Description Lennart Poettering 2013-05-15 11:31:00 UTC
uinput is auto-loaded on demand anyway if /dev/uinput is opened, there's really no point in loading it manually anymore.

$ modinfo uinput
...
alias:          devname:uinput
alias:          char-major-10-223
...

uinput auto-loading has always worked, as long as /dev/uinput exists, but the usual way to make /dev/uinput exist is to load uinput. So is there something taking care of creating /dev/uinput nowadays which will allow us to switch to auto-loading for it?

Regards,

Hans

Yes, the "devname:uinput" in the module gets written into /lib/modules/$VERSION/modules.devname, which udev parses on startup and performs a mknod accordingly.
