By default, in terms of kobject uevent messages, containers will: * Without userns: see kernel messages but not udev messages * With userns: see no messages at all And this creates trouble for libraries such as libusb, which relies on these netlink messages to detect device updates. We fix this by filling the gap for systemd and send out our own udev messages.
