You mix things a bit.
My approach allows to either using netlink or kernel hotplug method,
sharing the code and invoking only one instance of the parser / handler
even on hotplug event bursts. The third method is the initial device
file system population
Splitting this into different processes is the Unix way of multi
threading, using fifo (= named pipe) for inter process communication.
