The MODE="0660" here will not have expected effect since systemd ships a rule adding ACLs to /dev/kvm (uaccess). It would only touch the ACL mask entry like chmod does. So libvirt will get permission denied on kvm before a reboot or setfacl. I reported about this issue here but closed it after a while because I consider it a defect of udev. However I am starting to doubt whether upstream is ever gonna fix it: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/1677 So I think it's better we add this workaround to the install file. |
