Asynchronous Device/Driver Probing For The Linux Kernel
even more then that the systemd udev does not anymore change network interface names to be persistent after reboot
but for some reason they decided to give them dumb names (it's still a good thing; thank dell for that)
*they are now names from bios/firmware/whatever
the physical path to the device, that is
You mean like out-of-order results with probing? That sounds sensible
Yes, something along those lines where devices can be queried and the system will not necessarily wait for a response thus moving on. Slow devices might respond a little later on to udev's query then udev will then load the driver for that device and initialize it. So then this does sound like udev firing off queries and then not waiting for the responses but will then act on responses as they are received from devices.
