Hi! Based on SYSTEMD_READY definition, I think we should also mark loop devices with no file attached as not ready:
rules: mark loop device as SYSTEMD_READY=0 if no file is attached Check existence of loop/backing_file in sysfs and mark loop devices with SYSTEMD_READY if missing. Such loop files is uninitialized and it's not ready for use yet (there's no file attached). --- rules/99-systemd.rules.in | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/rules/99-systemd.rules.in b/rules/99-systemd.rules.in index 021359a..6ed4f3c 100644 --- a/rules/99-systemd.rules.in +++ b/rules/99-systemd.rules.in @@ -25,6 +25,9 @@ SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", KERNEL=="md*", ATTR{md/array_state}==" # Ignore nbd devices in the "add" event, with "change" the nbd is ready ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="block", KERNEL=="nbd*", ENV{SYSTEMD_READY}="0" +# Ignore loop devices that don't have any file attached +ACTION=="add|change", KERNEL=="loop[0-9]*", TEST!="loop/backing_file", ENV{SYSTEMD_READY}="0" + # We need a hardware independent way to identify network devices.
