libvirtd will then report "udev_monitor_receive_device returned NULL" error because the netlink socket buffer is not big enough (using GDB on libudev confirmed this with ENOBUFFS) and thus some udev events were dropped. This results in some devices being missing in the nodedev-list output. This patch overrides the system's rmem_max limit but for that, we need to make sure we've got root privileges.

This has broken the build on older systems as udev doesn't have this method. Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
