Yep! Best thing to do is start simple:
DEVPATH!="*/smsgiucv_app", GOTO="smsgiucv_app_end"
SUBSYSTEM=="module", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/sbin/vmcp msg JAMES udev rules
loaded"
ENV{SMSG_SENDER}!="JAMES", GOTO="smsgiucv_app_end"
ACTION=="change", \
PROGRAM=="/usr/local/bin/myscript $env{SMSG_SENDER} $env{SMSG_TEXT}", \
RUN+="/sbin/vmcp -k MSG $env{SMSG_SENDER} $result"
LABEL="smsgiucv_app_end"
This would be in a rule file in /etc/udev/rules.d/ Breaking this example
down, it sends "JAMES" a message letting me know that the smsgiucv_app is
loaded up and ready. The ENV(SMSG_SENDER) makes sure only my userid "JAMES"
is allowed to use this rule, otherwise it bails out.
Then the ACTION calls a script evaluating the sent info and sends the
response back.
