|  | 11 | used to hook hotplug scripts into kernel device events. It | 
|  | 12 | usually pointed to a shell script at /sbin/hotplug. | 
|  | 13 | This should not be used today, because usual systems create | 
|  | 14 | many events at bootup or device discovery in a very short time | 
|  | 15 | frame. One forked process per event can create so many processes | 
|  | 16 | that it creates a high system load, or on smaller systems | 
|  | 17 | it is known to create out-of-memory situations during bootup. |
