<varlistentry>
<term><varname>exec_delay=</varname></term>
<listitem>

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>event_timeout=</varname></term>

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>resolve_names=</varname></term>
<listitem>

</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
<para>
In addition, <filename>systemd-udevd</filename> can be configured
by command line options and the kernel command line (see
