Similar to LVSINFO type which gathers LV + its DM_DEVICE_INFO, the
new LVSSTATUS/SEGSSTATUS report type will gather LV/segment + its
DM_DEVICE_STATUS.
Since we can report status only for certain segment, in case
of LVSSTATUS we need to choose which segment related to the LV
should be processed that represents the "LV status". In case of
SEGSSTATUS type it's clear - the status is reported for the
segment just processed.
The former struct lv_with_info is renamed to lv_with_info_and_seg_status as it can
hold more than just "info", there's lv's segment status now in addition:
struct lv_with_info_and_seg_status {
struct logical_volume *lv;
struct lvinfo *info;
struct lv_seg_status *seg_status;
}
Where struct lv_seg_status is:
struct lv_seg_status {
struct dm_pool *mem;
struct lv_segment lv_seg;
lv_seg_status_type_t type;
void *status; /* struct dm_status_* */
}
Where lv_seg points to lv's segment that is being reported or
processed in general.
New struct lv_seg_status keeps the information about segment status -
the status retrieved via DM_DEVICE_STATUS ioctl. This information will
be used for reporting dm device target status for the LV segment
specified.
So this patch introduces third level of LV information that is
kept for reuse while reporting fields within one reporting line,
causing only one DM_DEVICE_STATUS ioctl call per LV segment line
reported (otherwise we'd need to call the DM_DEVICE_STATUS for each
segment status field in one LV segment/reporting line which is not
efficient).
This is following exactly the same principle as already introduced
by commit ecb2be5d16.
So currently we have three levels of information that can be used
to report an LV/LV segment:
- LV metadata itself (struct logical_volume *lv)
- LV's DM_DEVICE_INFO ioctl result (struct lvinfo *info)
- LV's segment DM_DEVICE_STATUS ioctl result (this status must be
bound to a segment, not the whole LV as the whole LV may be
composed of several segments of course)
(this is the new struct lv_seg_status *seg_status)
LVSINFO is exactly the same as existing LVS report type,
but it has the "struct lvinfo" populated in addition for
use - this is useful for fields that display the status
of the LV device itself (e.g. suspended state, tables
present/missing...).
Currently, such properties are reported within the "lv_attr"
field so separation is unnecessary - the "lvinfo" call
to populate the "struct lvinfo" is directly a part of the
field reporting function - _lvstatus_disp/lv_attr_dup.
With upcoming patches, we'd like the lv_attr field bits
to be separated into their own fields. To avoid calling
"lvinfo" fn as many times as there are fields requiring
the "lv_info" structure to be populated while reporting
one row related to one LV, we're separating former LVS
into LVS and LVSINFO report type. With this, there's
just one "lvinfo" call for one report row and LV reporting
fields will take the info needed from this struct then,
hence reusing it and not calling "lvinfo" fn on their own.
Add internal devtypes reporting command to display built-in recognised
block device types. (The output does not include any additional
types added by a configuration file.)

Add thin and thin pool lv creation support to lvm library
This is Mohan's thinp patch, re-worked to include suggestions
from Zdenek and Mohan.
V2: Remove const lvm_lv_params_create_thin
Add const lvm_lv_params_skip_zero_get
V3: Changed get/set to use generic functions like current
property
V4: Corrected macro in properties.c
V5: Fixed a bug in liblvm/lvm_lv.c function lvm_lv_create.
incorrectly used pool instead of lv_name when doing the
find_lv_in_vg call.

When reporting explicitly label attributes (pv_uuid for example), we do not
need to read metadata.
This patch separate the label fileds and removes scan_vgs_for_pvs
in process_each_pv() if not needed.
(There should be no user visible change in output.)
