Commit 9fd7ac7d03 did not handle mirrors
that contained mirrored logs. This is because the status line of the
mirror does not give an indication of the health of the mirrored log,
as you can see here:
[root@bp-01 lvm2]# dmsetup status vg-lv vg-lv_mlog
vg-lv: 0 409600 mirror 2 253:6 253:7 400/400 1 AA 3 disk 253:5 A
vg-lv_mlog: 0 8192 mirror 2 253:3 253:4 7/8 1 AD 1 core
Thus, the possibility for LVM commands to hang still persists when mirror
have mirrored logs. I discovered this while performing some testing that
does polling with 'pvs' while doing I/O and killing devices. The 'pvs'
managed to get between the mirrored log device failure and the attempt
by dmeventd to repair it. The result was a very nasty block in LVM
commands that is very difficult to remove - even for someone who knows
what is going on. Thus, it is absolutely essential that the log of a
mirror be recursively checked for mirror devices which may be failed
as well.
Despite what the code comment says in the aforementioned commit...
+ * _mirrored_transient_status(). FIXME: It is unable to handle mirrors
+ * with mirrored logs because it does not have a way to get the status of
+ * the mirror that forms the log, which could be blocked.
... it is possible to get the status of the log because the log device
major/minor is given to us by the status output of the top-level mirror.
We can use that to query the log device for any DM status and see if it
is a mirror that needs to be bypassed. This patch does just that and is
now able to avoid reading from mirrors that have failed devices in a
mirrored log.
Addresses: rhbz855398 (Allow VGs to be built on cluster mirrors),
and other issues.
The LVM code attempts to avoid reading labels from devices that are
suspended to try to avoid situations that may cause the commands to
block indefinitely. When scanning devices, 'ignore_suspended_devices'
can be set so the code (lib/activate/dev_manager.c:device_is_usable())
checks any DM devices it finds and avoids them if they are suspended.
The mirror target has an additional mechanism that can cause I/O to
be blocked. If a device in a mirror fails, all I/O will be blocked
by the kernel until a new table (a linear target or a mirror with
replacement devices) is loaded. The mirror indicates that this condition
has happened by marking a 'D' for the faulty device in its status
output. This condition must also be checked by 'device_is_usable()' to
avoid the possibility of blocking LVM commands indefinitely due to an
attempt to read the blocked mirror for labels.
Until now, mirrors were avoided if the 'ignore_suspended_devices'
condition was set. This check seemed to suggest, "if we are concerned
about suspended devices, then let's ignore mirrors altogether just
in case". This is insufficient and doesn't solve any problems. All
devices that are suspended are already avoided if
'ignore_suspended_devices' is set; and if a mirror is blocking because
of an error condition, it will block the LVM command regardless of the
setting of that variable.
Rather than avoiding mirrors whenever 'ignore_suspended_devices' is
set, this patch causes mirrors to be avoided whenever they are blocking
due to an error. (As mentioned above, the case where a DM device is
suspended is already covered.) This solves a number of issues that weren't
handled before. For example, pvcreate (or any command that does a
pv_read or vg_read, which eventually call device_is_usable()) will be
protected from blocked mirrors regardless of how
'ignore_suspended_devices' is set. Additionally, a mirror that is
neither suspended nor blocking is /allowed/ to be read regardless
of how 'ignore_suspended_devices' is set. (The latter point being the
source of the fix for rhbz855398.)
The heading 'Copy%' is specific to PVMOVE volumes, but can be generalized
to apply to LVM mirrors also. It is a bit awkward to use 'Copy%' for
RAID 4/5/6, however - 'Sync%' would be more appropriate. This is why
RAID 4/5/6 have not displayed their sync status by any means available to
'lvs' yet.
Example (old):
[root@hayes-02 lvm2]# lvs vg
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Move Log Cpy%Sy Convert
lv vg -wi-a---- 1.00g
raid1 vg rwi-a-r-- 1.00g 100.00
raid4 vg rwi-a-r-- 1.01g
raid5 vg rwi-a-r-- 1.01g
raid6 vg rwi-a-r-- 1.01g
This patch changes the heading to 'Cpy%Sync' and allows RAID 4/5/6 to print
their sync percent in this field.
Example (new):
[root@hayes-02 lvm2]# lvs vg
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
lv vg -wi-a---- 1.00g
raid1 vg rwi-a-r-- 1.00g 100.00
raid4 vg rwi-a-r-- 1.01g 100.00
raid5 vg rwi-a-r-- 1.01g 100.00
raid6 vg rwi-a-r-- 1.01g 100.00
The 'copy_percent' function takes the 'extents_copied' field from each
segment in an LV to create the numerator for the ratio that is to
become the copy_percent. (Otherwise known as the 'sync' percent for
non-pvmove uses, like mirror LVs and RAID LVs.) This function safely
works on RAID - not just mirrors - so it is better to have it in
lv_manip.c rather than mirror.c.
There's a lot of different functions that do a lot of different things
in lv_manip.c, so I placed the function near a function in lv_manip.c
that it was close to in metadata-exported.h. Different placement in the
file or a different name for the function may be useful.
The first parameter needs to be present even if it isn't being
used, otherwise the one any only parameter we get is null
which causes PyArg_ParseTuple to seg. fault.

cookie_set variable found in the struct dm_task should be always
set to 1 after dm_task_set_cookie_call, even if udev_sync is disabled
as the cookie itself carries synchronization informations *as well as*
extra flags to control other aspects of udev support.
For example, one could disable the synchronization itself, but still
direct the libdm code to disable library fallback via
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK flag. These extra flags still need
to be carried out!
A concrete example:
$ dmsetup create test --table "0 1 zero" --noudevsync
This disables synchronization with udev. As the --verifyudev option is
not used, we don't want to do any corrections. In other words, we
need DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK flag to be used. However,
with --noudevsync this was not the case - the flag was ignored!
This patch fixes the case when noudevsync is used but there are still
some extra flags passed within the cookie flag part. The synchronization
part of the cookie stays zero (which is ok as dm_udev_wait call on such a
cookie is simply a NOOP).
clvmd -d option parsing was not working properly.
clvmd -d 2 (with space) has been ignored because of
'::' used in getopt string, and as failsafe it's been used '1'.
Later this debug_arg has been ignored and debug_opt was used
instead which happend to have value '1'.

Our object nesting:
lib -> VG -> LV -> lvseg
-> PV -> pvseg
Implement refcounting and checks to ensure parent objects are not
dealloced before their children. Also ensure calls to self or child's
methods are handled cleanly for objects that have been closed or removed.
Ensure all functions that are object methods have a first parameter named
'self', for consistency
Rename local vars that reference a Python object to '*obj', in order to
differentiate from liblvm handles
Fix a misspelled pv method name

Use log_warn to print non-fatal warning messages.
Use of log_error would confuse checker for testing
whether proper error has been reported for some real error.
Instead of requiring users to create a liblvm object, and then calling
methods on it, the module acquires a liblvm handle as part of
initialization. This makes it impossible to instantiate a liblvm object
with a different systemdir, but there is an alternate envvar method for
that obscure use case.

I'm not sure what 'BUG's were being encountered when the restriction
to limit lvconvert-raid.sh tests to kernels > 3.2 was added. I do know
that there were BUG's that could be triggered when testing snapshots and
some of the earliest DM RAID available in the kernel. I've taken out
the 3.2 kernel restriction and added a dm-raid >= 1.2 restriction instead.
This will allow the test to run on patched production kernels.
A message is printed when the region_size of a RAID LV is adjusted
to allow for large (> ~1TB) LVs. The message wasn't very clear.
Hopefully, this is better.
Try to bring the lvmetad usage text and man page closer to the code.
There seem to be 3 useful ways to use -d with lvmetad at the moment:
-d all
-d wire
-d debug
(They can also be comma-separated like -d wire,debug.)
Prior to the last release, -d, -dd and -ddd were supported.
Fail if an unrecognised debug arg is supplied on the command line.
Change -V to report the same version as the lvm binary: previously it
just reported version 0.
Reset counter after thin pool resize failure.
If the pool goes above threshold, support unmounting
of all thin volumes if the lvextend fails to avoid
overfilling of the pool.
