I don't know if this is affecting other distributions but in Void Linux eudev fails to start since this commit. I found this by doing a git bisect between 533d602 (good) and a1b5990 (bad) and came up with this commit as where the regression was introduced.

I haven't managed to narrow it down as there is a lot going on in this commit. Do you have any ideas what it might be? eudev udevd doesn't provide much information unfortunately to help debug the issue.

I confirm this issue happens on both BE and OGS devices with both the new and old kernel.

After a lot of debugging, it turns out that the above commit changes something fundamentally perhaps involving the console. I traced the issue with udevd down to it not starting without valid stdin/stdout/stderr. I was able to work around this by modifying the console= kernel argument to something that is valid. To be sure, I did not have to do this before the offending commit.

eudev-project/eudev#185 reflects the issue on the eudev side. Since I've worked around this I don't think there is an immediate need to fix this but I would be curious to know if you can think of anything that might have changed as there could be other regressions that haven't been noticed yet.
