A device manager is a program that manages device nodes in the /dev directory. It is responsible for things like hot-plugging usb devices.

Alpine linux has several device managers available:

  • mdev (from busybox) is the default.
  • mdevd is standalone, compatible with mdev, more efficient.
  • eudev is the complex, full-featured one.
