The UEVENT lines show the events the kernel has sent over netlink. The UDEV lines
show the finished udev event handlers. The timing is printed in microseconds. The time
between UEVENT and UDEV is the time udev took to process this event or the udev
daemon has delayed its execution to synchronize this event with related and already
running events. For example, events for hard disk partitions always wait for the main
disk device event to finish, because the partition events may rely on the data the main
disk event has queried from the hardware.
udevmonitor --env shows the complete event environment:

udev also sends messages to syslog. The default syslog priority that controls which
messages are sent to syslog is specified in the udev configuration file /etc/udev/
udev.conf. The log priority of the running daemon can be changed with
udevcontrol log_priority=level/number.
