Do not use 'any' policy name as a value in config tree - so we stick
with 'policy_settings' and extra 'policy_name' for libdm params.
Update lvm2 API as well.
Example of supported metadata:
policy = "mq"
policy_settings {
migration_threshold = 2048
sequential_threshold = 512
random_threshold = 4
read_promote_adjustment = 10
}
Support new PASSTHROUGH 'feature' flag.
Add dm_config_node to pass in policy args.
Really use origin_uuid instead of using extra call
to pass seg_areas.
Switch to 64bit feature flag bit set so there is
enough space in future for new bits...
This patch adds a new flag --deferred to dmsetup remove. If this flag is
specified and the device is open, it is scheduled to be deleted on
close.
struct dm_info is extended.
The existing dm_task_get_info() is converted into a wrapper around the
new version dm_task_get_info_with_deferred_remove() so existing binaries
can still use the old smaller structure.
Recompiled code will pick up the new larger structure.
From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>
2.02.106 added suffixes to some LV uuids in the kernel.
If any of these LVs is activated with 2.02.105 or earlier,
and then a later version is used, the LVs appear invisible and
activation commands fail.
The code now has to check the kernel for both old and new uuids.
In contrast to per-type reserved values that are applied for all fields
of that type, per-field reserved values are only applied for concrete
field only.
Also add 'struct dm_report_field_reserved_value' to libdm for per-field
reserved value definition. This is defined by field number (an index
in the 'fields' array which is given for the dm_report_init_with_selection
function during report initialization) and the value to use for any
of the specified reserved names.
We have "help" and "?" defined as implicit fields now. As such, we
don't need to export these names in libdevmapper (as it was introduced
by commit 7c86131233 within this release).
If anyone uses these field names by mistake, the libdevmapper code can
error out correctly if it detects that the set of explicit field names
(the ones supplied by "fields" arg in dm_report_init/dm_report_init_with_selection)
contains any of the implicit field names (the ones defined internally
by libdevmapper itself).
Make dm_report_init_with_selection to accept an argument with an
array of reserved values where each element contains a triple:
{dm report field type, reserved value, array of strings representing this value}
When the selection is parsed, we always check whether a string
representation of some reserved value is not hit and if it is,
we use the reserved value assigned for this string instead of
trying to parse it as a value of certain field type.
This makes it possible to define selections like:
... --select lv_major=undefined (or -1 or unknown or undef or whatever string representations are registered for this reserved value in the future)
... --select lv_read_ahead=auto
... --select vg_mda_copies=unmanaged
With this, each time the field value of certain type is hit
and when we compare it with the selection, we use the proper
value for comparison.
For now, register these reserved values that are used at the moment
(also more descriptive names are used for the values):
const uint64_t _reserved_number_undef_64 = UINT64_MAX;
const uint64_t _reserved_number_unmanaged_64 = UINT64_MAX - 1;
const uint64_t _reserved_size_auto_64 = UINT64_MAX;
{
{DM_REPORT_FIELD_TYPE_NUMBER, _reserved_number_undef_64, {"-1", "undefined", "undef", "unknown", NULL}},
{DM_REPORT_FIELD_TYPE_NUMBER, _reserved_number_unmanaged_64, {"unmanaged", NULL}},
{DM_REPORT_FIELD_TYPE_SIZE, _reserved_size_auto_64, {"auto", NULL}},
NULL
}
Same reserved value of different field types do not collide.
All arrays are null-terminated.
The list of reserved values is automatically displayed within
selection help output:
Selection operands
------------------
...
Reserved values
---------------
-1, undefined, undef, unknown - Reserved value for undefined numeric value. [number]
unmanaged - Reserved value for unmanaged number of metadata copies in VG. [number]
auto - Reserved value for size that is automatically calculated. [size]
Selection operators
-------------------
...
The {pv,vg,lv,seg}_tags and lv_modules fields are reported as string
lists using the new dm_report_field_string_list - so we just pass
the list to the fn that takes care of reporting and item sorting itself.
Add a separate dm_report_field_string_list fn to libdevmapper to
support reporting string lists. Before, the code used libdevmappers's
dm_report_field_string fn which required formatting the list to a
single string. This functionality is now moved to libdevmapper
and the code that needs to report the string list just needs
to pass the list itself and libdevmapper will take care of this.
This also enhances code reuse.
The dm_report_field_string_list also accepts an argument to define
custom delimiter to use. If not defined, a default "," (comma) is
used as item delimiter in the string list reported.
The dm_report_field_string_list automatically sorts the items in
the list before formatting it to a final string. It also encodes
the position and length within the final string where each element
can be found. This can be used to support checking against each
list item reported since since when formatted as a single string
for the actual report, we would lose this information otherwise
(we don't want to copy each item, the position and length within
the final string is enough for us to get the original items back).
When such lists are checked against the selection tree, we can check
each item individually this way and we can support operators like
"match any" and "match all".
The list of strings is used quite frequently and we'd like to reuse
this simple structure for report selection support too. Make it part
of libdevmapper for general reuse throughout the code.
This also simplifies the LVM code a bit since we don't need to
include and manage lvm-types.h anymore (the string list was the
only structure defined there).
This is rebased and edited version of the original design and
patch proposed by Jun'ichi Nomura:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2007-April/msg00025.html
The dm_report_init_with_selection is the same as dm_report_init
but it contains an additional argument to set the selection
in the form of a string that contains field names to check against and
selection operators. The selection string is parsend and a selection
tree is composed for use in the checks against individual fields when
the report is processed. The parsed selection tree is stored in dm_report
structure as "selection_root".
This makes it easier to check against the fields (following patches for
report selection) and check whether size units are allowed or not
with the field value.
Share DM_REPORT_FIELD_RESERVED_NAME_{HELP,HELP_ALT} between libdm and
any libdm user to handle reserved field names, in this case the virtual
field name to show help instead of failing on unrecognized field.
The libdm user also needs to check the field name so it can fire
proper code in this case (cleanup, exit etc.).
Avoid introducing libdm structure allocated in library user.
Use direct call with all currently supported args.
When new arg is added, new function will cover it.
I am reverting the commit below - removing the new 'dm_config_get_int'
function and simply calling 'dm_config_get_uint32' while casting the
'int *' pointer parameter.

Misc: New function for reading lvm config file fields
Introduce 'dm_config_get_int', which will be used by the upcoming
cachepool segment type.
This patch defines a structure for holding all of the device-mapper
cache target's status information. The associated function provides
an easy way for higher levels (LVM) to consume the information.
This patch finishes the device-mapper interface for the cache and
cachepool segment types (i.e. the cache target).
This patch adds the cache segment type - the second of two necessary
to create cache logical volumes. This segment type references the
cachepool (the small fast device) and the origin (the large slow device);
linking them to create the cache device. The cache device is the
hierarchical device-mapper device that the user ulitmately makes use
of.
The cache segment sources the information necessary to construct the
device-mapper cache target from the origin and cachepool segments to
which it links.
This patch adds the new cachepool segment type - the first of two
necessary to eventually create 'cache' logical volumes. In addition
to the new segment type, updates to makefiles, configure files, the
lv_segment struct, and some necessary libdevmapper flags.
The cachepool is the LV and corresponding segment type that will hold
all information pertinent to the cache itself - it's size, cachemode,
cache policy, core arguments (like migration_threshold), etc.
This file may be included by other programs, so it should be compliant
with the C standard.
* use __linux__ instead of linux - __linux__ is always defined, linux is
not defined when gcc runs in standard-compliant mode (with -std=c89 or
-std=c99) because the C standard doesn't allow polluting namespace
with arbitrary defines.

Just like we have symbolic names assigned to general DM udev flags
(DM_UDEV_* flags), we have the same for any subsystem flags now
(DM_SUBSYSTEM_UDEV_FLAG*), making it easier to use.
Recent kernels allow messages to respond with a string.
Add dm_task_get_message_response() to libdevmapper to perform some
basic sanity checks and return this.
Have 'dmsetup message' display any response.
DM statistics will make extensive use of this.
(From Mikulas.)
Support tests with abort when libdm encounters internal
error - i.e. for dmsetup tool.
Code execution will be aborted when
env var DM_ABORT_ON_INTERNAL_ERRORS is set to 1
'lvchange' is used to alter a RAID 1 logical volume's write-mostly and
write-behind characteristics. The '--writemostly' parameter takes a
PV as an argument with an optional trailing character to specify whether
to set ('y'), unset ('n'), or toggle ('t') the value. If no trailing
character is given, it will set the flag.
Synopsis:
lvchange [--writemostly <PV>:{t|y|n}] [--writebehind <count>] vg/lv
Example:
lvchange --writemostly /dev/sdb1:y --writebehind 512 vg/raid1_lv
The last character in the 'lv_attr' field is used to show whether a device
has the WriteMostly flag set. It is signified with a 'w'. If the device
has failed, the 'p'artial flag has priority.
Example ("nosync" raid1 with mismatch_cnt and writemostly):
[~]# lvs -a --segment vg
LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize
raid1 vg Rwi---r-m 2 raid1 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_0] vg Iwi---r-- 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_1] vg Iwi---r-w 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rmeta_0] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
[raid1_rmeta_1] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
Example (raid1 with mismatch_cnt, writemostly - but failed drive):
[~]# lvs -a --segment vg
LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize
raid1 vg rwi---r-p 2 raid1 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_0] vg Iwi---r-- 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_1] vg Iwi---r-p 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rmeta_0] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
[raid1_rmeta_1] vg ewi---r-p 1 linear 4.00m
A new reportable field has been added for writebehind as well. If
write-behind has not been set or the LV is not RAID1, the field will
be blank.
Example (writebehind is set):
[~]# lvs -a -o name,attr,writebehind vg
LV Attr WBehind
lv rwi-a-r-- 512
[lv_rimage_0] iwi-aor-w
[lv_rimage_1] iwi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_0] ewi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_1] ewi-aor--
Example (writebehind is not set):
[~]# lvs -a -o name,attr,writebehind vg
LV Attr WBehind
lv rwi-a-r--
[lv_rimage_0] iwi-aor-w
[lv_rimage_1] iwi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_0] ewi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_1] ewi-aor--
Revert commit 31c24dd9f2. This commit
was used to force a RAID device-mapper table to be loaded into the
kernel despite the fact that it was identical to the one already
loaded. The effect allowed a RAID array with a transiently failed
device to refresh and reintegrate the failed device. This operation
is better done in the kernel on a 'resume'. Since,
'lvchange --refresh' already performs a suspend/resume cycle, the
above commit is not needed once the kernel change is made. Reverting
the commit removes an unnecessary (at least for now) change to the
device-mapper interface.
I've updated the dm_status_raid structure and dm_get_status_raid()
function to make it handle the new kernel status fields that will
be coming in dm-raid v1.5.0. It is backwards compatible with the
old status line - initializing the new fields to '0'. The new
structure is also more amenable to future changes. It includes a
'reserved' field that is currently initialized to zero but could
be used to hold flags describing new features. It also now uses
pointers for the character strings instead of attempting to allocate
their space along with the structure (causing the size of the
structure to be variable). This allows future fields to be appended.
The new fields that are available are:
- sync_action : shows what the sync thread in the kernel is doing
(idle, frozen, resync, recover, check, repair, or
reshape)
- mismatch_count: shows the number of discrepancies which were
found or repaired by a "check" or "repair"
process, respectively.
Previous commit included changes to WHATSNEW, but the code changes
were missing. Here is the description from the previous commit:
commit bbc6378b73
Author: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com>
Date: Thu Feb 21 11:31:36 2013 -0600
RAID: Make 'lvchange --refresh' restore transiently failed RAID PVs
A new function (dm_tree_node_force_identical_table_reload) was added to
avoid the suppression of identical table reloads. This allows RAID LVs
to reload the on-disk superblock information that contains which devices
have failed and the bitmaps. If the failed device has returned, this has
the effect of restoring the device and initiating recovery. Without this
patch, the user had to completely deactivate their RAID LV and re-activate
it in order to restore the failed device. Now they simply need to
suspend and resume (which is done by 'lvchange --refresh').
The identical table suppression is only avoided if the LV is not PARTAIL
(i.e. all of it's devices can be seen and read by LVM) and the kernel
status of the array contains failed devices. In other words, the function
will only be called in the case where we may have success in restoring
a failed device in the array.
