So /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage-dm.rules is responsible
for creating the /dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-* symlinks:
root@plucky:~# grep -rn "disk/by-id/dm-uuid" /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage-dm.rules:18:ENV{DM_UUID}=="?*",
SYMLINK+="disk/by-id/dm-uuid-$env{DM_UUID}"
That symlink is dependent on a non-empty `DM_UUID` udev environment
variable. That variable is set in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/55-dm.rules:
root@plucky:~# grep -rn "ENV{DM_UUID}=[^=]" /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/55-dm.rules:133:TEST=="dm",
ENV{DM_NAME}="$attr{dm/name}", ENV{DM_UUID}="$attr{dm/uuid}",
ENV{.DM_SUSPENDED}="$attr{dm/suspended}"
So if that environment variable is not set, that's one reason why the
symlinks would not be created. A reason that variable is not set would
be that /sys/block/dm-N/dm (or /sys/block/dm-N/dm/uuid) does not exist.
Can you check for the existence of those things in /sys/, and maybe
paste the output of `udevadm info /sys/block/dm-N` for each N?

plucky/s390x (with root disk on dm?) does not come up after kernel
update + reboot

Bug description:
While using the plucky daily from March 12 (that still comes with kernel 6.12)
(and working around LP#2101831, by forcing the installation to not apply any
updates)
I get a system installed, which is at kernel level 6.12.
Since 6.14 is out (in plucky release) since yesterday (March 12th) I tried to
upgrade from 6.12 to 6.14,
and the update itself seemed to be smooth (I couldn't find any errors while
doing a full-upgrade in the terminal - see attached logs).
But after executing a reboot, the system (in 3 different
configurations, that use dm) does not come up again, and ends up in
busybox, complaining that the root device couldn't be found:
# s1lp15 FCP/SCSI multipath with LVM
ALERT!
/dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-LVM-SlleSC5YA825VOM3t0KHBVFrLJcNWsnwZsObNziIB9Bk2mSVphnuTEOQ2eFiBbE1
does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
# s1lp15 2DASDs with LVM:
ALERT!
/dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-LVM-ePTbsojYPfgMacKXwpIMNMvxk80qGzlPhRYw7DJlovmqHyla9TK6NGc70p1JN29b
does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
# s1lp15 FCP/SCSI Multipath no LVM
ALERT! /dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-part1-mpath-36005076306ffd6b60000000000002603
does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
However, using a single disk without dm (so: no multipath, no lvm) the
system is able to come up again after the reboot (after a kernel
upgrade).
# s1lp15 single DASD no LVM
here the root device is:
root=/dev/disk/by-path/ccw-0.0.260b-part1
and it exists.
In the 3 different cases that (that repeatedly fail) "/dev/disk/by-id"
is missing.
I am not sure yet what's causing this,
it can be an issue with the device-mapper/lvm2
but also udev rules or kernel.
So maybe I need to add the kernel as affected component too (for now).
