+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+udevd listens to kernel uevents\&. For every event, udevd executes matching instructions specified in udev rules\&. See
+\fBudev\fR(7)\&.
+.PP
+The behavior of the running daemon can be changed with
+\fBudevadm control\fR\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\fB\-\-daemon\fR

+Detach and run in the background\&.

+\fB\-\-debug\fR

+\fB\-\-children\-max=\fR
+.RS 4

+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-exec\-delay=\fR
+.RS 4
+Number of seconds to delay the execution of RUN instructions\&. This might be useful when debugging system crashes during coldplug cause by loading non\-working kernel modules\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-resolve\-names=\fR
+.RS 4
+Specify when udevd should resolve names of users and groups\&. When set to
+\fBearly\fR
+(the default) names will be resolved when the rules are parsed\&. When set to
+\fBlate\fR
+names will be resolved for every event\&. When set to
+\fBnever\fR
+names will never be resolved and all devices will be owned by root\&.
