- kernel system event notification daemon
/usr/lib/sysevent/syseventd [-d debug_level] [-r rootdir]
syseventd is a user-level daemon that accepts delivery of system event buffers from the kernel. Once an event buffer has been delivered to syseventd, it, in turn, attempts to propagate the event to all interested end event subscribers.
Event subscribers take the form of a syseventd loadable module (SLM). syseventd passes the event buffer to each of its subscribers and in return expects a notification as to the successful or unsuccessful delivery attempt.
Upon successful delivery of the event buffer to all interested event subscribers, syseventd frees the event buffer from the kernel event queue.
The following option is supported:
Enable debug mode. Messages are printed to the invoking user's terminal.
The following exit values are returned:
Successful completion.
An error occurred.
daemon lock file
kernel to syseventd door file
SLM directory repository
SLM directory repository
SLM directory repository
