 Posted: Tue Feb 14, 2012 2:00 am Post subject: udev error message |
 |
|
I guess this goes here.
When udev starts during boot, I get the message:
| Code: |
udevd[200]: failed to execute '/lib/udev/pci-db' 'pci-db /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2' : No such file or directory
|
Just to include this:
| Code: |
$ /usr/sbin/lspci
[...]
00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7 Family) SATA IDE Controller (rev 01)
[...]
|
Can anyone explain what is causing this (and how to get rid of it)? |

do you have /usr as a partition? I think there is a bug (which has been filed, but I can't find the link) in udev which causes it to start prior to system partitions.

No. I have a separate /boot partition, but /usr resides in /. |

I too have this problem (/usr is on /) and indeed the message is
correct
/lib/udev/pci-db
does not exist.
Should it? What is it anyway?
Its absence has no effect that I can observe.

I solved it by info from this thread in the forums.
Adding the line | Code: | | >=sys-fs/udev-171-r5 extras |
to /etc/portage/package.use, then running | Code: | | emerge -avuND world |
has eliminated the error from my system. |

| That sets udev to be compiled with the extras flag and updates the system with the new use flag. |

Thank, I know what the command means. I want to know what it changes for system or something else, for ex. does it make some some particular device be recognized. |

| It seems to do lots of things but among them it creates the udev/pci-db which the error message complains about the lack of. |

| The new flag is USE="hwdb" instead of the obsolete USE="extras" bundle. |

This issue still exists. I have sys-fs/udev-196-r1 with hwdb use flag installed, but i still see the same error message a few times in the log file during boot. |

 Now it's a completely different problem - as of 196, pci-db/usb-db are gone. Now, there's a builtin hwdb command in udev that handles those.
Likely, some of the rules not installed by udev need to be updated. If it's a rule installed by udev, it's a bug. |

Oke, thanks for the explanation. Actually it's not udev, but the old version of udisks-1.0.4-r3. The relevant line in 80-udisks.rules
| Code: |
SUBSYSTEM=="pci", ACTION=="add|change", ENV{ID_MODEL_FROM_DATABASE}=="", ATTR{class}=="0x01*", IMPORT{program}="pci-db %p"
