The manpage for udevadm (version 141) says about the timeout for settle
and --timeout:
[quote]
udevadm settle [options]
Watches the udev event queue, and exits if all
current events are handled.
--timeout=seconds
Maximum number of seconds to wait for the event
queue to become empty. The default value is 180
seconds. A value of 0 will check if the queue
is empty and always return immediately.
[/quote]
Am I reading this correctly if I assume that udevadm has to wait for an
event to be "handled" regardless of the timeout value?
Example: dhclient has a default of 60 seconds to try to get an ip
address until it fails. udevadm settle waits for the whole 60 seconds to
pass regardless of the timeout parameter.
Is this behaviour as intended?
Thanks for the help,
Philippe
