When paths are added by update_pathvec_from_dm(), udev may not have
initialized them. This means that it's possible that they are supposed
to be blacklisted by udev properties, but weren't. Also, in order to
avoid doing potentially stalling IO, update_pathvec_from_dm() doesn't
get all the path information in pathinfo(). These paths end up in the
unexpected state of INIT_MISSING_UDEV or INIT_NEW, but with their mpp
and wwid set.
If udev has already initialized the path, but multipathed wasn't
monitoring it, the blacklist checks and wwid determination in
update_pathvec_from_dm() will work correctly, so paths added by it are
safe, but not completely initialized. The most likely reason why this
would happen is if the path was manually removed from multipathd
monitoring with "multipathd del path". The most common time when
uninitialized paths would in be part of multipath devices is during
boot, after the pivot root, but before the udev coldplug happens. These
paths are not necessarily safe. It's possible that /etc/multipath.conf
in the initramfs and regular filesystem differ, and they should now be
either blacklisted by udev_property, or have a different wwid. However
an "add" event should appear for them shortly.
Multipath now has a new state to deal with these devices, INIT_PARTIAL.
Devices in this state are treated mostly like INIT_OK devices, but
when "multipathd add path" is called or an add/change uevent happens
on these devices, multipathd will finish initializing them, and remove
them if necessary.
