# Match string formats:
# sensor:modalias:<parent device modalias>:dmi:<dmi string>
#
# The device modalias can be seen in the `modalias` file
# of the sensor parent, for example:
# cat /sys/`udevadm info -q path -n /dev/iio:device0`/../modalias
#
# The full DMI string of the running machine can be read from
# /sys/class/dmi/id/modalias
# That requires a kernel built with CONFIG_DMIID set, which is common.
# The full DMI string is not needed here and the meaning of individual parts
# can be seen in the source of the DMIID kernel module
# https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/firmware/dmi-id.c
