Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: multipath-tools
The kpartx udev rule runs "modprobe -Qba dm-multipath" every time a
device mapper device is added or changed. Not only is this a waste of
resources, but it fails because modprobe has no -Q switch.
It also has this rule:
ENV{DM_STATE}=="ACTIVE", ENV{DM_UUID}=="dmraid-*", \
RUN+="/sbin/kpartx -a -p -part /dev/$kernel"
This kpartx command should not be run because dmraid already creates the
partition device, but it isn't run anyhow because the rule matches on
"dmraid-*" but dmraid devices have an id of the form "DMRAID-*". Note
the difference in case.
