udev: add flag to allow disabling blkid probing
This can be useful for users of slow block devices. For example, the persistent-storage rules are needed for USB floppy drives be recognized by udisks2, but the extra blkid calls cause thrashing for 25+ seconds after every disk change. With this change, a user wishing to avoid the extra blkid invocation(s) could create /etc/udev/rules.d/55-floppy-noprobe.rules as follows: # Don't probe PC floppy drives SUBSYSTEM=="block", KERNEL=="fd*", \ ENV{UDEV_DISABLE_PERSISTENT_STORAGE_BLKID_FLAG}="1" # Don't probe USB floppy drives SUBSYSTEM=="block", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", \ ATTRS{bInterfaceClass}=="08", ATTRS{bInterfaceSubClass}=="04", \ ENV{UDEV_DISABLE_PERSISTENT_STORAGE_BLKID_FLAG}="1" I didn't exclude floppies by default in this change, because floppy devices are also emulated by some BIOSes/hypervisors in some cases, and I don't know how many systems would fail to boot if /dev/disk/by-uuid/* became unavailable for 'floppy disks' on those systems.
