254f73e3ef snapshot: reporting uses statusinfo
Convert lvs -o lv_merge_failed,lv_snapshot_invalid to use
lv_info_and_status function.

This makes it equal to attr value showing this info
(as they were different since they were derived from
different data set and different logic as well).

Also saves couple extra ioctl that were needed to obtain this info.

68d6d342f8 dbus: only log msg as debug if lvm2-lvmdbusd unit missing for D-Bus notification
Do not emit warning message but only log debug message if

we have global/notify_dbus=1 (which is used by default if we
configured sources with "--enable-notify-dbus"). We don't want
hard dependency between LVM2 and lvmdbusd so it's enough to log

4585785613 blkdeactivate: deactivate dev stack if dev on top already unmounted
If blkdeactivate finds out that the device on top of device stack
is already unmounted, it still proceeds with device stack deactivation
underneath now.

This situation can happen if blkdeactivate is started and the mount
point is unmounted in parallel by chance (so when blkdeactivate
gets the the actual umount call, the device is not mounted anymore).
Before, the blkdeactivate added such device to skip list which caused
all the stack underneath to be skipped too on deactivation. Now, we
proceed just as if blkdeactivate did the umount itself.

For example, in the example below, the vg-lvol0 is mounted on /mnt/test
when blkdeactivate is called, but it gets unmounted in parallel later
on when blkdeactivate gets to the actual umount call.

Before this patch (vg-lvol0 underneath not deactivated):

  $ blkdeactivate -u
  Deactivating block devices:
    [UMOUNT]: unmounting vg-lvol0 (dm-2) mounted on /mnt/test... skipping

With this patch applied (vg-lvol0 underneath still deactivated):

  $ blkdeactivate -u
  Deactivating block devices:
    [UMOUNT]: unmounting vg-lvol0 (dm-2) mounted on /mnt/test... already unmounted
    [LVM]: deactivating Logical Volume vg/lvol0... done

8270ff5702 lvconvert: prevent non-synced raid1 primary leg repair
(Automatic) repair may not be allowed during the initial sync of an upconverted
linear LV, because the data on the failing, primary leg hasn't been completely
synchronized to the N-1 other legs of the raid1 LV (replacing failed legs during
repair involves discontinuing access to any replaced legs data, thus preventing
data recovery on the primary leg e.g. via dd_rescue).

Even though repair would not cause data loss when adding legs to a fully synced
raid1 LV, we don't have information yet defining this state yet (e.g. a raid1
LV flag telling the fully synchronized status before any legs were added),
hence can't automatically decide to allow to repair.

If nonetheless a repair on a non-synced raid1 LVs is intended, the "--force"
option has to be provided.

de78e8eae7 lvconvert: position dedicated parity device in raid4 conversions porperly
On conversions between striped/raid0* and raid4, the kernel expects
the dedicated raid4 parity SubLVs in the first segment area rather than
in the last it's been allocated to, thus the data mapping ain't proper.

Enhance lvconvert (lib/metadata/raid_manip.c) to shift the dedicated
parity SubLVs on conversions from striped/raid0* to raid4 and vice-versa.

In case of raid0_meta -> raid4 where the MD raid0 personality already has
stored RAID array device positions in the superblocks, the MetaLVs have to
be cleared so that the kernel doesn't fail validating the array positions
after lvm has shifted them up by one.

Add more tests to lvconvert-raid-takeover.sh including one to check for
mapping flaws by converting a created raid4 with filesystem -> striped
and fsck it.

Whilst on it:
- add missing direct striped -> raid4 conversion to the takeover array
  to avoid an intermim conversion from striped -> raid0*
- clean up the takeover array
- allow lvconvert to actually call lv_raid_convert() on all takeover requests
  in order to check parameters and display messages provided by takeover
  functions rather than just "...not supported" from within lvconvert
- fix a typo

b5e093624d toolcontext: read all configuration sources when checking config values in lvm2-activation-generator through lighweight toolcontext handler
We added lightweight toolcontext handle to avoid useless initialization
of some parts of the context and also to avoid problems when using the
handle very soon at system boot, like in lvm2-activation-generator
through lvm2app interface. However, we missed reading all the other
config sources like lvmlocal.conf as well as any tag config - we need to
read these too to get the final config value which may be overriden in
any of these additional config sources.

Currently, we use this lightweight toolcontext handle to read
global/use_lvmetad and global/use_lvmpolld config values in
lvm2-activation-generator using lvm2app interface (lvm_config_find_bool
lvm2app function).

5d455b28fc lvconvert: fix (automatic) raid repair regression
The dm-raid target now rejects device rebuild requests during ongoing
resynchronization thus causing 'lvconvert --repair ...' to fail with
a kernel error message. This regresses with respect to failing automatic
repair via the dmeventd RAID plugin in case raid_fault_policy="allocate"
is configured in lvm.conf as well.

Previously allowing such repair request required cancelling the
resynchronization of any still accessible DataLVs, hence reasoning
potential data loss.

Patch allows the resynchronization of still accessible DataLVs to
finish up by rejecting any 'lvconvert --repair ...'.

It enhances the dmeventd RAID plugin to be able to automatically repair
by postponing the repair after synchronization ended.

More tests are added to lvconvert-rebuild-raid.sh to cover single
and multiple DataLV failure cases for the different RAID levels.

5838c41a35 cache: scrubbing for cache origin LV - Bug 1169495
Allow RAID scrubbing on cache origin sub-LV

This patch adds the ability to perform RAID scrubbing on the cache
origin sub-LV (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1169495).  Cache origin
operations are restricted to non-clustered RAID LVs until there can
be further testing in a cluster (even for exclusive activation).

User can either specify directly _corig LV
or he can specify cache LV and operation  --syncation is
passed ONLY to   _corig LV.

If users wants to manipulation with cache-pool devices - he
needs to specify this object name.

81970d22d8 cache: do not monitor cache-pool
Avoid monitoring of activated cache-pool - where the only purpose ATM
is to clear metadata volume which is actually activate in place
of cache-pool name (using public LV name).

Since VG lock is held across whole clear operation, dmeventd cannot
be used anyway - however in case of appliction crash we may
leave unmonitored device.

In future we may provide better mechanism as the current name
replacemnet is creating 'uncommon' table setups in case the metadata
LV is more complex type like raid  (needs some futher thinking about
error path results).

Another point to think about is the fact we should not clear device
while holding lock (i.e. dmeventd mirror repair cannot work in cases
like this).

8e9d5d12ae pvmove: prohibit non-resilient collocation of RAID SubLVs
'pvmove -n name pv1 pv2' allows to collocate multiple RAID SubLVs
on pv2 (e.g. results in collocated raidlv_rimage_0 and raidlv_rimage_1),
thus causing loss of resilence and/or performance of the RaidLV.

Fix this pvmove flaw leading to potential data loss in case of PV failure
by preventing any SubLVs from collocation on any PVs of the RaidLV.
Still allow to collocate any DataLVs of a RaidLV with their sibling MetaLVs
and vice-versa though (e.g. raidlv_rmeta_0 on pv1 may still be moved to pv2
already holding raidlv_rimage_0).

Because access to the top-level RaidLV name is needed,
promote local _top_level_lv_name() from raid_manip.c
to global top_level_lv_name().

57fa5d4329 lvmcmdline: do not refresh whole cmd context if profile dropped after processing LVM cmd
We don't need to refresh whole cmd context if we drop profile after

subset of settings which do not require complete cmd context refresh.

This patch calls process_profilable_config instead of
refresh_toolcontext if there was profile applied for the LVM
command only, not --config which requires toolcontext refresh.
The process_profilable_config just sets proper values based on
values of profilable settings, but it does not do complete

eaf7d06a82 lvconvert: support --zero for full cache pool conversion.
Add matching support for -Z option also we doing full conversion
to cache-pool.

Extending coversion message to show which pool type is created
and whether the metadata will be wiped or remain unmodified.

3c377f8334 lvconvert: tune cache-pool zeroing
Follow-up to 27a767d5e8.
Tunning behavior in a way we always prompt when option --zero is NOT specified.
Without -Z lvm expects user wants to 'reset' cache-pool metadata
(they could have been splitted from some cached LV)

If user doesn't want to zero metadata he needs to specify -Zn.

User may also avoid prompting for zeroing by using -Zy for
cache-pool (basically equals using --yes  without -Z being given)
(unlike full convert case, there is no cache-pool being converted,
so there is not 'uncoditional' prompt in this case).

5636bfd83d lvconvert: suppress zeroing warning when converting to thin
When volume was lvconvert-ed to a thin-volume with external origin,
then in case thin-pool was in non-zeroing mode
it's been printing WARNING about not zeroing thin volume - but
this is wanted and expected - so nothing to warn about.

So in this particular use case WARNING needs to be suppressed.

Adding parameter support for lvcreate_params.

So now lvconvert creates 'normal thin LV' in read-only mode
(so any read will 'return 0' for a moment)
then deactivate regular thin LV and reacreate in 'final R/RW' mode
thin LV with external origin and activate again.

070c0d31ab metadata: fix automatic updates of PV extension headers to newest version
Before, the automatic update from older to newer version of PV extension
header happened within vg_write call. This may have caused problems under
some circumnstances where there's a code in between vg_write and vg_commit
which may have failed. In such situation, we reverted precommitted metadata
and put back the state to working version of VG metadata.

However, we don't have revert for PV write operation at the moment. So
if we updated PV headers already and we reverted vg_write due to failure
in subsequent code (before vg_commit), we ended up with lost VG metadata
(because old metadata pointers got reset by the PV write operation).

To minimize problematic situations here, we should put vg_write and
vg_commit that is done after PV header rewrites as close to each
other as possible.

This patch moves the automatic PV header rewrite for new extension
header part from vg_write to _vg_read where it's done the same way
as we do any other VG repairs if detected during VG read operation
(under VG write lock).

27a767d5e8 lvconvert: reusing old cache pool metadata needs -Zn
When cache pool is reused for a new cached volume, there is
normally no need to 'keep' old cache-pool metadata as this
could cause major data lose.

Unlike with 'lvcreate -H -LX --cachepool' conversion, this lvconvert
path left the metadata unzeroed - partly for making easier some
debugging, but this was rather a bug.

So to keep possible reattach of 'unzeroed' metadata, user
now has to use 'lvconvert -Zn' for such conversion. In this case
the prompt will appear about possibe data loss and to proceed,
user has to confirm such operation. Without -Zn metadata are wiped.

e1112227d1 lvresize: fix zero size extension
Commit ca878a3426 changed behavior
or resize operation. Later the code has been futher changed
to skip fs resize completely when size of LV is already matching
and finaly at the most recent resize changeset for resize the
check for matching size has been eliminated as well so we ended
with a request call to resize fs to 0 size in some cases.

This commit reoders some test so the prompt happens just once before
resize of possibly 2 related volumes.

Also extra test for having LV already given size is added, and
whole metadata update is skipped for this case as the only
result would be an increment of seqno.

However the filesystem is still resized when requested,
so if the LV has some size and the resize is resolved to
the same size, the filesystem resize is called so in case FS
would not match, the resize will happen.

When logging to epoch files we would like to prevent creating too large
log files otherwise a spining command could fulfill available space
very easily and quickly.

Limit for to 100000 per command.
