After keventd processes a uevent (creating device nodes, loading modules, etc.), rebroadcast the original event to netlink group 0x4 so that libudev-zero consumers -- graphical applications, Wayland/X11 compositors, libinput, and anything else using libudev to monitor device hotplug -- can receive device events. Rebroadcast is enabled by default. Use -g to override the target netlink group mask, or -G to disable rebroadcast entirely. Bit 0 (kernel group) is always masked out to prevent feedback loops.

Finit is a fast, simple alternative to SysV init and systemd, designed for small and embedded Linux systems. It can also run on desktop and server systems, like finix.

For working examples, see the 🚀 contrib/ section or these tutorials:
- 🛠️ Buildroot embedded Linux,
- 📦 Debian GNU/Linux,
- ⛰️ Alpine Linux, and
- 🌌 Void Linux
Note
Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.
For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
