help
- Say Y here if you want to plug devices into your computer while
- the system is running, and be able to use them quickly. In many
- cases, the devices can likewise be unplugged at any time too.
-
- One well known example of this is PCMCIA- or PC-cards, credit-card
- size devices such as network cards, modems or hard drives which are
- plugged into slots found on all modern laptop computers. Another
- example, used on modern desktops as well as laptops, is USB.
+ This option is provided for the case where no in-kernel-tree
+ modules require HOTPLUG functionality, but a module built
+ outside the kernel tree does. Such modules require Y here.
- Enable HOTPLUG and KMOD, and build a modular kernel. Get agent
- software (at <http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net/>) and install it.
- Then your kernel will automatically call out to a user mode "policy
- agent" (/sbin/hotplug) to load modules and set up software needed
- to use devices as you hotplug them.

+ depends on NET
+ default y
+ help
+ This option enables the kernel userspace event layer, which is a
+ simple mechanism for kernel-to-user communication over a netlink
+ socket.
+ The goal of the kernel userspace events layer is to provide a simple
+ and efficient events system, that notifies userspace about kobject
+ state changes. This will enable applications to just listen for
+ events instead of polling system devices and files.
+ Hotplug events (kobject addition and removal) are also available on
+ the netlink socket in addition to the execution of /sbin/hotplug if
+ CONFIG_HOTPLUG is enabled.
