-      <para>To obtain the right major and minor number for a device, Udev
-      relies on the information provided by <systemitem
-      class="filesystem">sysfs</systemitem> in <filename
-      class="directory">/sys</filename>.  For example,
-      <filename>/sys/class/tty/vcs/dev</filename> contains the string
-      <quote>7:0</quote>. This string is used by <command>udevd</command> to
-      create a device node with major number <emphasis>7</emphasis> and minor
-      <emphasis>0</emphasis>. The names and permissions of the nodes created
-      under the <filename class="directory">/dev</filename> directory are
-      determined by rules specified in the files within the <filename
-      class="directory">/etc/udev/rules.d/</filename> directory. These are
-      numbered in a similar fashion to the LFS-Bootscripts package. If
-      <command>udevd</command> can't find a rule for the device it is creating,
-      it will default permissions to <emphasis>660</emphasis> and ownership to
-      <emphasis>root:root</emphasis>. Documentation on the syntax of the Udev
-      rules configuration files are available in

+      Instead, this must be handled in the kernel, by the <systemitem
+      class="filesystem">devtmpfs</systemitem> filesystem.  Any driver that
+      wishes to register a device node will go through <systemitem
+      class="filesystem">devtmpfs</systemitem> (via the driver core) to do it.
+      When a <systemitem class="filesystem">devtmpfs</systemitem> instance is
+      mounted on <filename class="directory">/dev</filename>, the device node
+      will initially be created with a fixed name, permissions, and owner.</para>
+
+      <para>A short time later, the kernel will send a uevent to <command>
+      udevd</command>.  Based on the rules specified in the files within the
+      <filename class="directory">/etc/udev/rules.d</filename>, <filename
+      class="directory">/lib/udev/rules.d</filename>, and <filename
+      class="directory">/run/udev/rules.d</filename> directories, <command>

+      <command>udevd</command> database entry for that object.</para>
