Description

This type is used for cleaning up when devices set up via the udisks interfaces are removed while still in use - for example, a USB stick being yanked. The UDisksPersistentStore type is used to record this information to ensure that it exists across daemon restarts and OS reboots.

The following files are used:

Table 2. Persistent information used for cleanup

File Usage
/run/udisks2/mounted-fs A serialized 'a{sa{sv}}' GVariant mapping from the mount point (e.g. /media/EOS_DIGITAL) into a set of details. Known details include block-device (of type 't') that is the dev_t for the mounted device, mounted-by-uid (of type 'u') that is the uid_t of the user who mounted the device, and fstab-mount (of type 'b') that is TRUE if the device was mounted via an entry in /etc/fstab.
/run/udisks2/unlocked-luks A serialized 'a{ta{sv}}' GVariant mapping from the dev_t of the clear-text device (e.g. /dev/dm-0) into a set of details. Known details include crypto-device (of type 't') that is the dev_t for the crypto-text device, dm-uuid (of type 'ay') that is the device mapper UUID for the clear-text device and unlocked-by-uid (of type 'u') that is the uid_t of the user who unlocked the device.
/run/udisks2/loop A serialized 'a{sa{sv}}' GVariant mapping from the loop device name (e.g. /dev/loop0) into a set of details. Known details include backing-file (of type 'ay') for the name of the backing file and backing-file-device (of type 't') for the dev_t for of the device holding the backing file (or 0 if unknown) and setup-by-uid (of type 'u') that is the uid_t of the user who set up the loop device.


Cleaning up is implemented by running a thread (to ensure that actions are serialized) that checks all data in the files mentioned above and cleans up the entry in question by e.g. unmounting a filesystem, removing a mount point or tearing down a device-mapper device when needed. The clean-up thread itself needs to be manually kicked using e.g. udisks_cleanup_check() from suitable places in the UDisksDaemon and UDisksProvider implementations.

Since cleaning up is only necessary when a device has been removed without having been properly stopped or shut down, the fact that it was cleaned up is logged to ensure that the information is brought to the attention of the system administrator.
