Currently we get an ADD from alloc_dev -> add_disk -> register_disk. But the device is not usable until the dm resume ioctl, so ideally that one should be ignored, and it's the CHANGE issued by dm resume that udev should act upon. (That's not essential though - the /dev node can be created in response to the ADD, but nothing in udev userspace should attempt to open it until after the CHANGE is received.) > Could it be that we want to pass more properties to the event, which are > added as environment keys? Don't think so - we'll be handing full control of ownership/permissions over to udev.
