Hi,
Recently I'm hitting a very weird delay when doing development inside a x86_64 VM.
The dmesg shows the delay (10+ sec) between virtio blk and device-mapper:
[ 3.651377] virtio_blk virtio4: 10/0/0 default/read/poll queues

The VM is running kernel based on upstream commit 78f4e737a53e ("Merge tag 'for-6.16/dm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm"), with a lot of extra btrfs patches.
The v6.15 kernel from Archlinux is totally fine without any delay.
The v6.16-rc kernel may have some different configs, but the config is used for a long long time, way before v6.15, so it looks like it's something in the v6.16 cycle causing problems.
I can definitely do a bisection, but any clue would be appreciated.
Probably a good idea to go ahead with a bisect to help pin it down.
BTW, a little more digging shows it's the `udevadm settle` causing the long delay in the initramfs.
The rootfs is an ext4 on a LVM lv, so initramfs is required to mount the rootfs.
So it may not be the block/dm layer causing the problem.
Even the more reason to bisect it then, if we don't quite know why it's
slow.
It looks like my memory is blurry, I tried as old as v6.14 (v6.13 failed
to compile using the latest gcc 15.1.1), all the same delay.
Thus I believe it may be some missing kernel config causing the problem.
Let me retry with the base Archlinux kernel config and see what's going
wrong.
Thanks,
Qu
