Bug description:
[Impact]
* Attempting to deploy a machine with a HP Smart Array Raid 6i fails to
install due to Curtin miscalculating the device path to CCISS
partitions
Curtin has been updated to properly calculate and handle the
different forms of the HP CCISS array devices and partition path names
in /dev and in /sys
[Test Case]
* Install proposed curtin package and deploy Ubuntu images to a system
with an HP Smart Array device.
PASS: Ubuntu OS successfully installed
FAIL: Ubuntu fails to install with error message like:
An error occured handling 'cciss!c0d0':
OSError - [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/sys/block/c0d0/holders'
[Regression Potential]
* The fix included changes to how curtin determines the sysfs path to
block devices and partitions. It's possible that these changes could
cause working systems which currently deploy to fail to deploy.
However, this is mitigated by the fact that only HP Smart Array devices
have special naming scheme for partitions so it's unlikely that non-HP
storage devices are using the kernel path /dev/cciss as a prefix.
[Original Description]
Attempting to deploy a machine with a HP Smart Array Raid 6i fails.
Installation output contains:
Error: Partition(s) 5 on /dev/cciss/c0d0 have been written, but we have been
unable to inform the kernel of the change, probably because it/they are in use.
As a result, the old partition(s) will remain in use. You should reboot now
before making further changes.
An error occured handling 'cciss!c0d0': OSError - [Errno 2] No such file or
directory: '/sys/block/c0d0/holders'
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/sys/block/c0d0/holders'
Installation failed with exception: Unexpected error while running command.
Command: ['curtin', 'block-meta', 'custom']
Exit code: 3
Reason: -
Stdout: "Error: Partition(s) 5 on /dev/cciss/c0d0 have been written, but we
