I have tried this udev rule and unfortunately it didn't help. I have added
the rule in "/etc/udev/rules.d/localextra.rules" file on target. Then I
have another service as below to trigger it.

root at linux-1:~# cat /lib/systemd/system/udevd.service

[Unit]
Description=udevd service
DefaultDependencies=false

[Service]
Type=forking
ExecStart=/lib/systemd/systemd-udevd --daemon
ExecStartPost=/bin/udevadm test /sys/devices/platform/omapdrm.0/drm/card0

 Attached here the weston log and service file when it fails. (what see is
, weston starts but within four or five seconds it stops)

How could I find what issue/problem it is having? Is there any more logs
from systemd I need to enable?

Vikash
