Subject: Re: [SPDK] VM boot failed sometimes if using vhost-user-blk with spdk

I enable debug of systemd-udevd by changing guest's /etc/udev/udev.conf to this:
  udev_log="debug"
and regenerate initramfs. Then, we can get more message about this issue. I
select some useful messages from /run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt:
  systemd-udevd[199] probe /dev/vdb raid offset=8
  systemd-udevd[199] no db file to read /run/udev/data/+virtio:virtio1: No such 
  systemd-udevd[199] handling device node '/dev/vdb', devnum=b253:16, mode=0660,
  systemd-udevd[199] set permissions /dev/vdb, 060660, uid=0, gid=6
  systemd-udevd[199] creating symlink '/dev/block/253:16' to '../vdb'
  systemd-udevd[199] creating link '/dev/disk' to '/dev/vdb'
  systemd-udevd[199] creating symlink '/dev/disk' to 'vdb'
We can see that the symlink /dev/disk was created by system-udevd, and cause 
boot failed.
I also noticed that `blkid /dev/vdb' print nothing, but `blkid /dev/vda*' is 
normal.
The /dev/vdb is correspond to the malloc bdev that spdk created.

Is this a bug for system-udevd?
