improve reading and repairing vg metadata The fact that vg repair is implemented as a part of vg read has led to a messy and complicated implementation of vg_read, and limited and uncontrolled repair capability. This splits read and repair apart. Summary ------- - take all kinds of various repairs out of vg_read - vg_read no longer writes anything - vg_read now simply reads and returns vg metadata - vg_read ignores bad or old copies of metadata - vg_read proceeds with a single good copy of metadata - improve error checks and handling when reading - keep track of bad (corrupt) copies of metadata in lvmcache - keep track of old (seqno) copies of metadata in lvmcache - keep track of outdated PVs in lvmcache - vg_write will do basic repairs - new command vgck --updatemetdata will do all repairs Details ------- - In scan, do not delete dev from lvmcache if reading/processing fails; the dev is still present, and removing it makes it look like the dev is not there. Records are now kept about the problems with each PV so they be fixed/repaired in the appropriate places. - In scan, record a bad mda on failure, and delete the mda from mda in use list so it will not be used by vg_read or vg_write, only by repair. - In scan, succeed if any good mda on a device is found, instead of failing if any is bad. The bad/old copies of metadata should not interfere with normal usage while good copies can be used. - In scan, add a record of old mdas in lvmcache for later, do not repair them while reading, and do not let them prevent us from finding and using a good copy of metadata from elsewhere. One result is that "inconsistent metadata" is no longer a read error, but instead a record in lvmcache that can be addressed separate from the read. - Treat a dev with no good mdas like a dev with no mdas, which is an existing case we already handle. - Don't use a fake vg "handle" for returning an error from vg_read, or the vg_read_error function for getting that error number; just return null if the vg cannot be read or used, and an error_flags arg with flags set for the specific kind of error (which can be used later for determining the kind of repair.) - Saving an original copy of the vg metadata, for purposes of reverting a write, is now done explicitly in vg_read instead of being hidden in the vg_make_handle function. - When a vg is not accessible due to "access restrictions" but is otherwise fine, return the vg through the new error_vg arg so that process_each_pv can skip the PVs in the VG while processing. (This is a temporary accomodation for the way process_each_pv tracks which devs have been looked at, and can be dropped later when process_each_pv implementation dev tracking is changed.) - vg_read does not try to fix or recover a vg, but now just reads the metadata, checks access restrictions and returns it. (Checking access restrictions might be better done outside of vg_read, but this is a later improvement.) - _vg_read now simply makes one attempt to read metadata from each mda, and uses the most recent copy to return to the caller in the form of a 'vg' struct. (bad mdas were excluded during the scan and are not retried) (old mdas were not excluded during scan and are retried here) - vg_read uses _vg_read to get the latest copy of metadata from mdas, and then makes various checks against it to produce warnings, and to check if VG access is allowed (access restrictions include: writable, foreign, shared, clustered, missing pvs). - Things that were previously silently/automatically written by vg_read that are now done by vg_write, based on the records made in lvmcache during the scan and read: . clearing the missing flag . updating old copies of metadata . clearing outdated pvs . updating pv header flags - Bad/corrupt metadata are now repaired; they were not before. Test changes ------------ - A read command no longer writes the VG to repair it, so add a write command to do a repair. (inconsistent-metadata, unlost-pv) - When a missing PV is removed from a VG, and then the device is enabled again, vgck --updatemetadata is needed to clear the outdated PV before it can be used again, where it wasn't before. (lvconvert-repair-policy, lvconvert-repair-raid, lvconvert-repair, mirror-vgreduce-removemissing, pv-ext-flags, unlost-pv) Reading bad/old metadata ------------------------ - "bad metadata": the mda_header or metadata text has invalid fields or can't be parsed by lvm. This is a form of corruption that would not be caused by known failure scenarios. A checksum error is typically included among the errors reported. - "old metadata": a valid copy of the metadata that has a smaller seqno than other copies of the metadata. This can happen if the device failed, or io failed, or lvm failed while commiting new metadata to all the metadata areas. Old metadata on a PV that has been removed from the VG is the "outdated" case below. When a VG has some PVs with bad/old metadata, lvm can simply ignore the bad/old copies, and use a good copy. This is why there are multiple copies of the metadata -- so it's available even when some of the copies cannot be used. The bad/old copies do not have to be repaired before the VG can be used (the repair can happen later.) A PV with no good copies of the metadata simply falls back to being treated like a PV with no mdas; a common and harmless configuration. When bad/old metadata exists, lvm warns the user about it, and suggests repairing it using a new metadata repair command. Bad metadata in particular is something that users will want to investigate and repair themselves, since it should not happen and may indicate some other problem that needs to be fixed. PVs with bad/old metadata are not the same as missing devices. Missing devices will block various kinds of VG modification or activation, but bad/old metadata will not. Previously, lvm would attempt to repair bad/old metadata whenever it was read. This was unnecessary since lvm does not require every copy of the metadata to be used. It would also hide potential problems that should be investigated by the user. It was also dangerous in cases where the VG was on shared storage. The user is now allowed to investigate potential problems and decide how and when to repair them. Repairing bad/old metadata -------------------------- When label scan sees bad metadata in an mda, that mda is removed from the lvmcache info->mdas list. This means that vg_read will skip it, and not attempt to read/process it again. If it was the only in-use mda on a PV, that PV is treated like a PV with no mdas. It also means that vg_write will also skip the bad mda, and not attempt to write new metadata to it. The only way to repair bad metadata is with the metadata repair command. When label scan sees old metadata in an mda, that mda is kept in the lvmcache info->mdas list. This means that vg_read will read/process it again, and likely see the same mismatch with the other copies of the metadata. Like the label_scan, the vg_read will simply ignore the old copy of the metadata and use the latest copy. If the command is modifying the vg (e.g. lvcreate), then vg_write, which writes new metadata to every mda on info->mdas, will write the new metadata to the mda that had the old version. If successful, this will resolve the old metadata problem (without needing to run a metadata repair command.) Outdated PVs ------------ An outdated PV is a PV that has an old copy of VG metadata that shows it is a member of the VG, but the latest copy of the VG metadata does not include this PV. This happens if the PV is disconnected, vgreduce --removemissing is run to remove the PV from the VG, then the PV is reconnected. In this case, the outdated PV needs have its outdated metadata removed and the PV used flag needs to be cleared. This repair will be done by the subsequent repair command. It is also done if vgremove is run on the VG. MISSING PVs ----------- When a device is missing, most commands will refuse to modify the VG. This is the simple case. More complicated is when a command is allowed to modify the VG while it is missing a device. When a VG is written while a device is missing for one of it's PVs, the VG metadata is written to disk with the MISSING flag on the PV with the missing device. When the VG is next used, it is treated as if the PV with the MISSING flag still has a missing device, even if that device has reappeared. If all LVs that were using a PV with the MISSING flag are removed or repaired so that the MISSING PV is no longer used, then the next time the VG metadata is written, the MISSING flag will be dropped. Alternative methods of clearing the MISSING flag are: vgreduce --removemissing will remove PVs with missing devices, or PVs with the MISSING flag where the device has reappeared. vgextend --restoremissing will clear the MISSING flag on PVs where the device has reappeared, allowing the VG to be used normally. This must be done with caution since the reappeared device may have old data that is inconsistent with data on other PVs. Bad mda repair -------------- The new command: vgck --updatemetadata VG first uses vg_write to repair old metadata, and other basic issues mentioned above (old metadata, outdated PVs, pv_header flags, MISSING_PV flags). It will also go further and repair bad metadata: . text metadata that has a bad checksum . text metadata that is not parsable . corrupt mda_header checksum and version fields (To keep a clean diff, #if 0 is added around functions that are replaced by new code. These commented functions are removed by the following commit.)

locking: unify global lock for flock and lockd There have been two file locks used to protect lvm "global state": "ORPHANS" and "GLOBAL". Commands that used the ORPHAN flock in exclusive mode: pvcreate, pvremove, vgcreate, vgextend, vgremove, vgcfgrestore Commands that used the ORPHAN flock in shared mode: vgimportclone, pvs, pvscan, pvresize, pvmove, pvdisplay, pvchange, fullreport Commands that used the GLOBAL flock in exclusive mode: pvchange, pvscan, vgimportclone, vgscan Commands that used the GLOBAL flock in shared mode: pvscan --cache, pvs The ORPHAN lock covers the important cases of serializing the use of orphan PVs. It also partially covers the reporting of orphan PVs (although not correctly as explained below.) The GLOBAL lock doesn't seem to have a clear purpose (it may have eroded over time.) Neither lock correctly protects the VG namespace, or orphan PV properties. To simplify and correct these issues, the two separate flocks are combined into the one GLOBAL flock, and this flock is used from the locking sites that are in place for the lvmlockd global lock. The logic behind the lvmlockd (distributed) global lock is that any command that changes "global state" needs to take the global lock in ex mode. Global state in lvm is: the list of VG names, the set of orphan PVs, and any properties of orphan PVs. Reading this global state can use the global lock in sh mode to ensure it doesn't change while being reported. The locking of global state now looks like: lockd_global() previously named lockd_gl(), acquires the distributed global lock through lvmlockd. This is unchanged. It serializes distributed lvm commands that are changing global state. This is a no-op when lvmlockd is not in use. lockf_global() acquires an flock on a local file. It serializes local lvm commands that are changing global state. lock_global() first calls lockf_global() to acquire the local flock for global state, and if this succeeds, it calls lockd_global() to acquire the distributed lock for global state. Replace instances of lockd_gl() with lock_global(), so that the existing sites for lvmlockd global state locking are now also used for local file locking of global state. Remove the previous file locking calls lock_vol(GLOBAL) and lock_vol(ORPHAN). The following commands which change global state are now serialized with the exclusive global flock: pvchange (of orphan), pvresize (of orphan), pvcreate, pvremove, vgcreate, vgextend, vgremove, vgreduce, vgrename, vgcfgrestore, vgimportclone, vgmerge, vgsplit Commands that use a shared flock to read global state (and will be serialized against the prior list) are those that use process_each functions that are based on processing a list of all VG names, or all PVs. The list of all VGs or all PVs is global state and the shared lock prevents those lists from changing while the command is processing them. The ORPHAN lock previously attempted to produce an accurate listing of orphan PVs, but it was only acquired at the end of the command during the fake vg_read of the fake orphan vg. This is not when orphan PVs were determined; they were determined by elimination beforehand by processing all real VGs, and subtracting the PVs in the real VGs from the list of all PVs that had been identified during the initial scan. This is fixed by holding the single global lock in shared mode while processing all VGs to determine the list of orphan PVs.

device usage based on devices file The LVM devices file lists devices that lvm can use. The default file is /etc/lvm/devices/system.devices, and the lvmdevices(8) command is used to add or remove device entries. If the file does not exist, or if lvm.conf includes use_devicesfile=0, then lvm will not use a devices file. When the devices file is in use, the regex filter is not used, and the filter settings in lvm.conf or on the command line are ignored. LVM records devices in the devices file using hardware-specific IDs, such as the WWID, and attempts to use subsystem-specific IDs for virtual device types. These device IDs are also written in the VG metadata. When no hardware or virtual ID is available, lvm falls back using the unstable device name as the device ID. When devnames are used, lvm performs extra scanning to find devices if their devname changes, e.g. after reboot. When proper device IDs are used, an lvm command will not look at devices outside the devices file, but when devnames are used as a fallback, lvm will scan devices outside the devices file to locate PVs on renamed devices. A config setting search_for_devnames can be used to control the scanning for renamed devname entries. Related to the devices file, the new command option --devices <devnames> allows a list of devices to be specified for the command to use, overriding the devices file. The listed devices act as a sort of devices file in terms of limiting which devices lvm will see and use. Devices that are not listed will appear to be missing to the lvm command. Multiple devices files can be kept in /etc/lvm/devices, which allows lvm to be used with different sets of devices, e.g. system devices do not need to be exposed to a specific application, and the application can use lvm on its own set of devices that are not exposed to the system. The option --devicesfile <filename> is used to select the devices file to use with the command. Without the option set, the default system devices file is used. Setting --devicesfile "" causes lvm to not use a devices file. An existing, empty devices file means lvm will see no devices. The new command vgimportdevices adds PVs from a VG to the devices file and updates the VG metadata to include the device IDs. vgimportdevices -a will import all VGs into the system devices file. LVM commands run by dmeventd not use a devices file by default, and will look at all devices on the system. A devices file can be created for dmeventd (/etc/lvm/devices/dmeventd.devices) If this file exists, lvm commands run by dmeventd will use it. Internal implementaion: - read the devices file . add struct dev_use (du) struct to cmd->use_devices for each entry - dev_cache_scan . add struct device (dev) to dev_cache - match devices file entries to devices . match each du on cmd->use_devices to a dev in dev_cache . sets du->dev, dev->id, dev->flags MATCHED_USE_ID - label_scan . filters applied that do not require data from device . filter-deviceid skips devs without MATCHED_USE_ID, i.e. devs that are not in the devices file . read label from dev . filters applied that require data from device . read metadata from dev . lvmcache info/vginfo structs created for PVs/VGs - handle devices with unstable devname ID where devname changed . this step only needed when devs do not have proper device IDs, and their dev names change, e.g. after reboot. . detect incorrect match because PVID in the devices file entry does not match the PVID found when the device was read . undo incorrect device match between du and dev . search system devices for new location of PVID . update devices file with new devnames for PVIDs on renamed devices . label_scan the renamed devs - continue with command processing man page updates
