Long Display Freeze on "Reloading device manager configuration..."

I'm encountering a complete display freeze (Xorg freezing up) every time I update my system with Pacman:
Code: [Select]
pacman -Syu
...
:: Running post-transaction hooks...
(1/4) Updating udev hardware database...
(2/4) Reloading device manager configuration...

At Reloading device manager configuration... the screen freezes for a few seconds, before returning to normal.

The root of the problem lies in /usr/share/libalpm/scripts/udev-hook, which is called every time the system updates. When Reloading device manager configuration.. is running, the following commands are executed:

Code: [Select]
/usr/bin/udevadm control --reload
/usr/bin/udevadm trigger -c change
/usr/bin/udevadm settle

The culprit appears to be udevadm trigger -c change, which upon running causes my entire screen to freeze, just like when running Pacman.

I believe this may have something to do with me running this on a LUKS encrypted drive, with Runit. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid this every time I update?

Thank you for the reply! Here's what I get in /var/log/Xorg.0.log when I run udevadm trigger -c change:

Nothing sticks out to me, other than the fact most of the time seems to take place after:

and also:

Both of these seem to displace around 2-3 seconds, which is approximately consistent with the freezing time I experience.

Is this a good time to disclose I'm using NVIDIA drivers?

Not sure what more to add other than you you could use tail -f to follow the log before you do the update (or just execute udevadm trigger -c to test) and also dmesg -w might show something ?
So then you can see the log messages in real time.

Has this just started happening or is it from the off on a new install ?

Thanks for the reply.

I've been experiencing this ever since I've started using a LUKS encrypted root partition with BTRFS.

As for the log, the one I posted is what happens when running tail -f on the Xorg log file after the udev command is executed. I made sure to take note of the log contents before and after the udev command, and I posted the difference. It seems to be cycling through all devices, and it seems to hang on the display 2 times.

Running dmesg -w shows the following:

Code: [Select]

[ 3446.234448] elogind-daemon[1278]: Watching system buttons on /dev/input/event8 (ThinkPad Extra Buttons)

I'm thinking it might have something to do with BTRFS.

You could add the (-v) verbose switch to udevadm trigger and test that as well. If really lucky you might get an error but more likely you'll get a bit more of a idea of the culprit if the output of the list of devices pauses / freezes during the process. Check the man page to see if the other options might help (nothing jumped out at me).

To be honest if it was me I think I'd decide to just cut my losses and ignore it ! Close my eyes and meditate for a few seconds :)

If I was to take a wild guess I go with some sort of race condition where both the display and disk / filesystem events have started but for some reason the display event can't finish until the disk event has completed. And the disk event can't complete until luks has done it's decryption stuff.
And I'm going to qualify that as an uneducated guess as I know next to nothing about LUKS and only the very basics about btrfs.
