The command "sudo udevadm control --reload-rules" is used to reload the udev rules.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
-
"sudo": is a command that allows a user with administrative privileges to execute the following command. It stands for "superuser do".
-
"udevadm": is a tool used to manage and control the udev (user device) system in Linux. In this case, we are using udevadm to control the rules.
-
"control": is a subcommand used to control various aspects of the udev system.
-
"--reload-rules": is an option that tells udevadm to reload the rules. Udev rules are used to define how the system should handle events related to devices and their attributes.
By executing this command, you are instructing udevadm to reload the udev rules, allowing any changes made to the rules to take effect without the need to restart the system.
