[Bug 1875594] Re: multipathd failed to get udev uid, add missing path

[Rafael David Tinoco]

I have found some upstream patches I'd like to bring to multipath-tools
for Focal:

5abeb33afedc013fb9996555ac79c4c711612fea (HEAD -> focal) libmultipath: fix sgio_get_vpd looping
d5cb76dc185ec5fd6822d9c8acc8b5a1218f2666 libmultipath: _init_foreign(): fix possible memory leak
c007a54882e45787f9e7c098d23c8d336b871406 libmultipath: remove_wwids(): fix possible leaks
8b15c32fb2bdb8ff2c086292da242badc1432248 libmultipath: replace_wwids(): fix possible fd leak
b2ed2805ffda32ffa8cdd5cb3a661632553c906f libmultipath: uevent_listen(): fix poll() retval check
2ccbc0072e5415b7acb0b36b33c180ef988a9f3a libmultipath: path_discovery: handle libudev errors
0069fcc68bf0d6e5169c5a57f7b2926c9b3988f0 libmultipath: lookup_binding(): don't rely on int overflow
f42f37f82fb4baf20934215b56e4c8591545f49e libmultipath: scan_devname: fix int overflow detection
1ae17e570b11e5361e1fa310481bc6f369918b30 libmultipath: format_devname: avoid buffer overflow

So I'd like to provide you a PPA with a new package containing those
fixes. For your particular case, the patch:

2ccbc0072e5415b7acb0b36b33c180ef988a9f3a libmultipath: path_discovery:
handle libudev errors

will likely accuse the error for the device but it won't make multipath
to repeat them as the device won't be monitored. (output from previous
comment is needed as well).

I'll add here a PPA and ask you to test packages from it if that is ok
for you.

Thanks in advance
