This patch series provides updates to udev to allow the creation symlinks for
virtio-blk devices, specifically disk/by-id and disk/by-path. This is most
useful for virtio-blk devices that do not yet have any filesystem for which a
UUID can be extracted (disk/by-uuid). These patches (save the path_id fix)
require an updated[1] qemu (on the host) and virtio-blk (in the guest) to
generate the by-id path; however if the guest or host qemu isn't capable
then no action is taken.
Changes since v1:
- Switch ID_VIRTIO_SERIAL to ID_SERIAL
- Switched IOCTL_CMD to use numeric value
- Add ID_SERIAL_SHORT
- Update persistent-storage rules to use ID_SERIAL for virtioblk_id
