The udev parity gaps that were blocked on IPC -- settle, trigger,
info, queue introspection, runtime rule reload -- become bus methods.
keventd serves its own socket the way Finit serves /run/finit/bus:
brokerless, libink, one socket per daemon, no forwarding between the
two.
Settle(u) -> b parked until the queue drains or the timeout
passes; true when settled
Trigger(s, s) replay events, action + subsystem glob
Info(s) -> a{ss} /run/udev/data properties for a devpath
RulesReload() -> u re-read rules dirs, returns rule count
QueueEmpty (b), SeqnumProcessed (t) properties
DeviceProcessed (ss) signal after each fully handled event
The queue state is the highest kernel seqnum keventd has handled,
baselined at startup, against /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum. keventd -S
now asks the running daemon first and falls back to seqnum polling.
In passive mode Trigger and RulesReload refuse. Adds
link_call_connection() for the park bookkeeping.

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.
