This was due to the fact that in this case conf->dev_type is set to DEV_UEVENT. It also happens during a fail-over event. This is causing the logs to be filled with following messages: multipath: dm-6: failed to get udev uid: Invalid argument multipath: dm-6: failed to get sysfs uid: Invalid argument multipath: dm-6: failed to get sgio uid: No such file or directory * Fix should be backported to xenial to avoid more support issues being filed. * This change alows the filtering to happen. [Test Case] * install multipath-tools, create a basic multipath.conf with dm- filtering rule. Run: "service multipath-tools start" and check the log [Regression Potential] * There should be no regression potential with this change, the filtering only allows the code to not traverse the error path. [Original Description] During a path loss event, the syslog is showing these messages where prior to the recent upgrade to multipath-tools I didn't see anything like this. To me this seems like either a problem or it seems like a print message that should go into a different log file.
