Hi team,

Is there a way to find if kernel or udev created a device node (@ /dev/xxxx)?in
Android?

I searched in the internet and "udevadm" can be used to finf it but this is not
available in Android. Please let me know if there is any alternative way to
find it.
On Android, neither the kernel, nor udev, create device nodes, sorry.
That's up to a different piece of userspace code that is Android
specific.

hope this helps,
