Title: drbd udev rule with multiple symlinks fails Status in drbd-utils package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in drbd-utils source package in Trusty: Invalid Status in drbd-utils source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in drbd-utils source package in Artful: In Progress Status in drbd-utils source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in drbd-utils source package in Cosmic: In Progress Status in drbd-utils package in Debian: Unknown Bug description: The drbd udev rule creates multiple symlinks with a single udev rule, by space-separating them inside an env var. However, recent udev changes no longer allow doing that: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/4833 Now, recent versions of udev will, by default, replace any whitespace introduced into SYMLINK values by variable substitution, so the drbd udev rule that does this breaks: ENV{SYMLINK}!="", SYMLINK="$env{SYMLINK}", GOTO="have_symlink" when that SYMLINK env variable contains multiple symlinks, they are combined into a single symlink with an underscore joining them. Instead, since it's desired to leave all spaces in the env var in order to create multiple symlinks, the rule needs to use the "string_escape=none" option which prevents whitespace replacement: ENV{SYMLINK}!="", SYMLINK="$env{SYMLINK}", OPTIONS+="string_escape=none", GOTO="have_symlink" Related ubuntu bug that introduced the new udev default whitespace replacement behavior: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1647485 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/drbd-utils/+bug/1673255/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sts-sponsors Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sts-sponsors More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
