Subject: [PATCH] multipathd: trigger udev change on path addition
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
When a multipath device is created for the first time, there is a window
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
where some path devices way be added to the multipath device, but never
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
claimed in udev. This can allow other device owners, like lvm, to think
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
they can use the device.
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
When a multipath device is first created, all the existing paths that
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
are not claimed by multipath have a uevent triggered so that they can
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
get claimed. After that, multipath assumes all future paths added to the
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
multipath device will have been claimed by multipath, since the device's
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
WWID is now in the wwids file. This doesn't work for any paths that
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
have already been processed by the multipath.rules udev rules before
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
the multipath device was created.
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
To close this window, when path device is added, and a matching
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
multipath device already exists, multipathd now checks if the device is
|
|
|
c4b4b8 |
claimed by multipath, and if not, triggers a uevent to claim it.
