Bug Description
Hi,
if I do
sudo pvcreate /dev/vdb
sudo vgcreate kvm /dev/vdb
sudo lvcreate -L 1G -n haha kvm
then '/dev/kvm/haha' is created. This is a problem if I later want to run qemu-kvm.
Presumably there are other well-known names under /dev which should not be used for vg-named directories.
Is it possible to get lvm/udev to keep a blacklist to keep this from happening? Or should these be kept under /dev/lvm/kvm/haha instead?
