Title: udevadm settle - timeout of 5 seconds reached,
Post by: emninger on December 06, 2015, 11:45:14 AM
Since the above msg interrupts the login. it continues saying
Code: [Select]
the event queue contains
/sys/devices/virtual/block/loop/465
and a lot other loops too. Is that to consider normal? And where does it come from?

TIA

It is a bug somewhere, but not easy to determine where.

Ok. It's annoying, but apparently it does no harm. It's my impression it comes (came) up when i hotplugged and unplugged usb devices. I used the mount tool to mount them, but i simply pulled them out without unmounting them (exception made for xfe or commandline) there is no way to do that in TCL. Or am i wrong?

The mount tool adds always a new letter for the next plug-in, even if it's the same device (sdb, sdc, sde sdf ....) - as long as i do not reboot. On the next reboot i have a long list of loops (but without the udevadm statement) in the console. That was really hurting, so i tried to shutdown without backup. And then came up that msg above.

In dmesg at a first glance there is nothing related.

Why would you do that? Use the mount tool to unmount the drive before pulling it.
