       The udev rules are read from the files located in the system rules
       directory /usr/lib/udev/rules.d, the volatile runtime directory
       /run/udev/rules.d and the local administration directory
       /etc/udev/rules.d. All rules files are collectively sorted and processed
       in lexical order, regardless of the directories in which they live.
       However, files with identical file names replace each other. Files in
       /etc have the highest priority, files in /run take precedence over files
       with the same name in /lib. This can be used to override a
       system-supplied rules file with a local file if needed; a symlink in
       /etc with the same name as a rules file in /lib, pointing to /dev/null,
       disables the rules file entirely.
