Control: tag -1 +moreinfo I was thinking about this bug again, and I think the bug must be elsewhere.
Andrew: Are you able to consistently reproduce this bug on multiple setups ? The reason I think this bug may not be valid is for 2 reasons: 1) If the bug was valid, it should have been reproducible in my virtual setup. 2) More than 1, the patch being proposed should not be needed. Because even though a partition has an UUID with string "partN-mpath-*" the parent device is still owning the UUID with string "mpath-*". When the device is deleted, the event will be generated for the device itself. Which, should be able to catch the string regex of the latter I've exampled above. This is what is happening in my virtual setup. If 2 is correct, why has the OP seen the issue? We need confirmation if the issue was seen consistently on multiple setups. If so, are there other components that may be silently locking the device ?
