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.

Change vg_create() to take only minimal parameters and obtain a lock. vg_t *vg_create(struct cmd_context *cmd, const char *vg_name); This is the first step towards the API called to create a VG. Call vg_lock_newname() inside this function. Use _vg_make_handle() where possible. Now we have 2 ways to construct a volume group: 1) vg_read: Used when constructing an existing VG from disks 2) vg_create: Used when constructing a new VG Both of these interfaces obtain a lock, and return a vg_t *. The usage of _vg_make_handle() inside vg_create() doesn't fit perfectly but it's ok for now. Needs some cleanup though and I've noted "FIXME" in the code. Add the new vg_create() plus vg 'set' functions for non-default VG parameters in the following tools: - vgcreate: Fairly straightforward refactoring. We just moved vg_lock_newname inside vg_create so we check the return via vg_read_error. - vgsplit: The refactoring here is a bit more tricky. Originally we called vg_lock_newname and depending on the error code, we either read the existing vg or created the new one. Now vg_create() calls vg_lock_newname, so we first try to create the VG. If this fails with FAILED_EXIST, we can then do the vg_read. If the create succeeds, we check the input parameters and set any new values on the VG. TODO in future patches: 1. The VG_ORPHAN lock needs some thought. We may want to treat this as any other VG, and require the application to obtain a handle and pass it to other API calls (for example, vg_extend). Or, we may find that hiding the VG_ORPHAN lock inside other APIs is the way to go. I thought of placing the VG_ORPHAN lock inside vg_create() and tying it to the vg handle, but was not certain this was the right approach. 2. Cleanup error paths.

if (vg->fid->fmt->features & FMT_CONFIG_PROFILE)
config: differentiate command and metadata profiles and consolidate profile handling code - When defining configuration source, the code now uses separate CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND and CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA markers (before, it was just CONFIG_PROFILE that did not make the difference between the two). This helps when checking the configuration if it contains correct set of options which are all in either command-profilable or metadata-profilable group without mixing these groups together - so it's a firm distinction. The "command profile" can't contain "metadata profile" and vice versa! This is strictly checked and if the settings are mixed, such profile is rejected and it's not used. So in the end, the CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND set of options and CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA are mutually exclusive sets. - Marking configuration with one or the other marker will also determine the way these configuration sources are positioned in the configuration cascade which is now: CONFIG_STRING -> CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND -> CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA -> CONFIG_FILE/CONFIG_MERGED_FILES - Marking configuration with one or the other marker will also make it possible to issue a command context refresh (will be probably a part of a future patch) if needed for settings in global profile set. For settings in metadata profile set this is impossible since we can't refresh cmd context in the middle of reading VG/LV metadata and for each VG/LV separately because each VG/LV can have a different metadata profile assinged and it's not possible to change these settings at this level. - When command profile is incorrect, it's rejected *and also* the command exits immediately - the profile *must* be correct for the command that was run with a profile to be executed. Before this patch, when the profile was found incorrect, there was just the warning message and the command continued without profile applied. But it's more correct to exit immediately in this case. - When metadata profile is incorrect, we reject it during command runtime (as we know the profile name from metadata and not early from command line as it is in case of command profiles) and we *do continue* with the command as we're in the middle of operation. Also, the metadata profile is applied directly and on the fly on find_config_tree_* fn call and even if the metadata profile is found incorrect, we still need to return the non-profiled value as found in the other configuration provided or default value. To exit immediately even in this case, we'd need to refactor existing find_config_tree_* fns so they can return error. Currently, these fns return only config values (which end up with default values in the end if the config is not found). - To check the profile validity before use to be sure it's correct, one can use : lvm dumpconfig --commandprofile/--metadataprofile ProfileName --validate (the --commandprofile/--metadataprofile for dumpconfig will come as part of the subsequent patch) - This patch also adds a reference to --commandprofile and --metadataprofile in the cmd help string (which was missing before for the --profile for some commands). We do not mention --profile now as people should use --commandprofile or --metadataprofile directly. However, the --profile is still supported for backward compatibility and it's translated as: --profile == --metadataprofile for lvcreate, vgcreate, lvchange and vgchange (as these commands are able to attach profile to metadata) --profile == --commandprofile for all the other commands (--metadataprofile is not allowed there as it makes no sense) - This patch also contains some cleanups to make the code handling the profiles more readable...

lvmetad: two phase vg_update Previously, a command sent lvmetad new VG metadata in vg_commit(). In vg_commit(), devices are suspended, so any memory allocation done by the command while sending to lvmetad, or by lvmetad while updating its cache could deadlock if memory reclaim was triggered. Now lvmetad is updated in unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed. The new method for updating VG metadata in lvmetad is in two phases: 1. In vg_write(), before devices are suspended, the command sends lvmetad a short message ("set_vg_info") telling it what the new VG seqno will be. lvmetad sees that the seqno is newer than the seqno of its cached VG, so it sets the INVALID flag for the cached VG. If sending the message to lvmetad fails, the command fails before the metadata is committed and the change is not made. If sending the message succeeds, vg_commit() is called. 2. In unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed, the command sends lvmetad the standard vg_update message with the new metadata. lvmetad sees that the seqno in the new metadata matches the seqno it saved from set_vg_info, and knows it has the latest copy, so it clears the INVALID flag for the cached VG. If a command fails between 1 and 2 (after committing the VG on disk, but before sending lvmetad the new metadata), the cached VG retains the INVALID flag in lvmetad. A subsequent command will read the cached VG from lvmetad, see the INVALID flag, ignore the cached copy, read the VG from disk instead, update the lvmetad copy with the latest copy from disk, (this clears the INVALID flag in lvmetad), and use the correct VG metadata for the command. (This INVALID mechanism already existed for use by lvmlockd.)

locking: unify global lock for flock and lockd There have been two file locks used to protect lvm "global state": "ORPHANS" and "GLOBAL".

lvmetad: two phase vg_update Previously, a command sent lvmetad new VG metadata in vg_commit(). In vg_commit(), devices are suspended, so any memory allocation done by the command while sending to lvmetad, or by lvmetad while updating its cache could deadlock if memory reclaim was triggered. Now lvmetad is updated in unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed. The new method for updating VG metadata in lvmetad is in two phases: 1. In vg_write(), before devices are suspended, the command sends lvmetad a short message ("set_vg_info") telling it what the new VG seqno will be. lvmetad sees that the seqno is newer than the seqno of its cached VG, so it sets the INVALID flag for the cached VG. If sending the message to lvmetad fails, the command fails before the metadata is committed and the change is not made. If sending the message succeeds, vg_commit() is called. 2. In unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed, the command sends lvmetad the standard vg_update message with the new metadata. lvmetad sees that the seqno in the new metadata matches the seqno it saved from set_vg_info, and knows it has the latest copy, so it clears the INVALID flag for the cached VG. If a command fails between 1 and 2 (after committing the VG on disk, but before sending lvmetad the new metadata), the cached VG retains the INVALID flag in lvmetad. A subsequent command will read the cached VG from lvmetad, see the INVALID flag, ignore the cached copy, read the VG from disk instead, update the lvmetad copy with the latest copy from disk, (this clears the INVALID flag in lvmetad), and use the correct VG metadata for the command. (This INVALID mechanism already existed for use by lvmlockd.)
