If a single, standard LV is specified as the cache, use
it directly instead of converting it into a cache-pool
object with two separate LVs (for data and metadata).
With a single LV as the cache, lvm will use blocks at the
beginning for metadata, and the rest for data. Separate
dm linear devices are set up to point at the metadata and
data areas of the LV. These dm devs are given to the
dm-cache target to use.
The single LV cache cannot be resized without recreating it.
If the --poolmetadata option is used to specify an LV for
metadata, then a cache pool will be created (with separate
LVs for data and metadata.)

Native disk scanning is now both reduced and
async/parallel, which makes it comparable in
performance (and often faster) when compared
to lvm using lvmetad.
Autoactivation now uses local temp files to record
online PVs, and no longer requires lvmetad.
There should be no apparent command-level change
in behavior.
Make activation commands:
vgchange -ay, lvchange -ay, pvscan -aay
take an exclusive file lock on the VG to serialize
multiple concurrent activation commands which could
otherwise interfere with each other.
Different flavors of activate_lv() and lv_is_active()
which are meaningful in a clustered VG can be eliminated
and replaced with whatever that flavor already falls back
to in a local VG.
e.g. lv_is_active_exclusive_locally() is distinct from
lv_is_active() in a clustered VG, but in a local VG they
are equivalent. So, all instances of the variant are
replaced with the basic local equivalent.
For local VGs, the same behavior remains as before.
For shared VGs, lvmlockd was written with the explicit
requirement of local behavior from these functions
(lvmlockd requires locking_type 1), so the behavior
in shared VGs also remains the same.
As we start refactoring the code to break dependencies (see doc/refactoring.txt),
I want us to use full paths in the includes (eg, #include "base/data-struct/list.h").
This makes it more obvious when we're breaking abstraction boundaries, eg, including a file in
metadata/ from base/
Shift refresh of mirror table right into monitor_dev_for_events().
Use !vg_write_lock_held() to recognize use of lvchange/vgchange.
(this shall change if this would no longer work, but requires
futher some API changes).
With this patch dm mirror table is only refreshed when necassary.
Also update WARNING message about mirror usage without monitoring
and display LV name.
Occasionaly users may need to peek into 'component devices.
Normally lvm2 does not let users activation component.
This patch adds special mode where user can activate
component LV in a 'read-only' mode i.e.:
lvchange -ay vg/pool_tdata
All devices can be deactivated with:
lvchange -an vg | vgchange -an....
Add an exception to not allowing lvchange to change properties
on hidden LVs. When a thin pool data LV is a cache LV, we
need to allow changing cache properties on the tdata sublv of
the thin pool.
lvchange/lvconvert operations that do not require the LV
to already be active need to acquire a transient LV lock
before changing/converting the LV to ensure the LV is not
active on another host. If the LV is already active,
a persistent LV lock already exists on the host and the
transient LV lock request is a no-op.
Some lvmlockd locks in lvchange were lost in the cmd def
changes. The lvmlockd locks in lvconvert seem to have
been missed from the start.
The actual value specified by the --poll y|n option was not
being used. The way the --poll value is used is hidden
through an indirection where the value is stored in a
global variable at the start of the command, and then the
value is read from there later. Setting the global
variable early in the command had been lost with the
cmd def changes.
Fill in some gaps where old versions of lvm allowed
--poll and --monitor in combination with other operations,
but those combinations had been lost since the cmd def work.
(The new cmd def code also added some combinations that
had been missed by the old code.)
Changes:
lvchange --activate: add poll and monitor options, and
add calls to them in implementation.
lvchange --refresh: add monitor option (poll already there),
and call to monitor in implementation.
lvchange <metadata ops>: add poll and monitor options, and
add calls to them in implementation.
vgchange <metadata ops>: add poll option (call to poll
already in implementation).
vgchange --refresh: remove monitor option (not used by code)
lvchange --persistent y: add poll and monitor options, and
add calls to them, and to activate
in the implementation. (Making it
match the main lvchange metadata
command.)
Summary of current usage:
lvchange --activate: monitor, poll
vgchange --activate: monitor, poll
lvchange --refresh: monitor, poll
vgchange --refresh: poll
lvchange --monitor: ok
lvchange --poll: ok
lvchange --monitor --poll: ok
vgchange --monitor: ok
vgchange --poll: ok
vgchange --monitor --poll: ok
lvchange <metadata ops>: monitor, poll
vgchange <metadata ops>: poll
Enhance commit 25b5915c9b
to process options requiring immediate metadata commits
and reloads after those we can group together doing just
one commit and an optional reload for the whole group.
Backup metadata after processing options successfully.

_lvchange_properties_single() processes multiple command
line arguments in a loop causing metadata updates and/or
backups per argument.
Optimize to only perform one update and/or backup
(but necessary interim ones; e.g. for --resync)
per command run.

raid1 doesn't allow to set all images to writemostly because at
least one image is required to receive any written data immediately.
The dm-raid target will detect such invalid request and
fail it iwith a kernel error message.
Reject such request in uspace displaying a respective error message.
To more easily recognize unselected state from select '0' state
add new 'THIN_ZERO_UNSELECTED' enum.
Same applies to THIN_DISCARDS_UNSELECTED.
For those we no longer need to use PASS_ARG_ZERO or PASS_ARG_DISCARDS.
The MD kernel raid1 personality does no use any writemostly leg as the primary.
In case a previous linear LV holding data gets upconverted to
raid1 it becomes the primary leg of the new raid1 LV and a full
resynchronization is started to update the new legs.
No writemostly and/or writebehind setting may be allowed during
this initial, full synchronization period of this new raid1 LV
(using the lvchange(8) command), because that would change the
primary (i.e the previous linear LV) thus causing data loss.
lvchange has a bug not preventing this scenario.
Fix rejects setting writemostly and/or writebehind on resychronizing raid1 LVs.
Once we have status in the lvm2 metadata about the linear -> raid upconversion,
we may relax this constraint for other types of resynchronization
(e.g. for user requested "lvchange --resync ").
New lvchange-raid1-writemostly.sh test is added to the test suite.

The new check_single_lv() function is called prior to the
existing process_single_lv(). If the check function returns 0,
the LV will not be processed.
The check_single_lv function is meant to be a standard method
to validate the combination of specific command + specific LV,
and decide if the combination is allowed. The check_single
function can be used by anything that calls process_each_lv.
As commands are migrated to take advantage of command
definitions, each command definition gets its own entry
point which calls process_each for itself, passing a
pair of check_single/process_single functions which can
be specific to the narrowly defined command def.
Reload of thin-pool origin_only is designed to only post messages
to a thin-pool. It's not intended to be used for reload of thin-pool
table. Fix it by using standard call 'lv_update_and_reload()'.
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.

'lvchange --resync LV' or 'lvchange --syncaction repair LV' request the
RAID layout specific parity blocks in raid4/5/6 to be recreated or the
mirrored blocks to be copied again from the master leg/copy for raid1/10,
thus not allowing a rebuild of a particular PV.
Introduce repeatable option '--[raid]rebuild PV' to allow to request
rebuilds of specific PVs in a RaidLV which are known to contain corrupt
data (e.g. rebuild a raid1 master leg).
Add test lvchange-rebuild-raid.sh to test/shell doing rebuild
variations on raid1/10 and 5; add aux function check_status_chars
to support the new test.

Resync attempts on raid0/raid0_meta via 'lvchange --resync ...'
cause segfaults.
'lvchange --syncaction ...' doesn't get rejected either.
Prohibit both on raid0/raid0_meta LVs.

In the same way that process_each_vg() can be passed
a single VG name to process, also allow process_each_lv()
to be passed a single VG name and LV name to process.
Add support for active cache LV.
Handle --cachemode args validation during command line processing.
Rework some lvm2 internal to use lvm2 defined CACHE_MODE enums
indepently on libdm defines and use enum around the code instead
of passing and comparing strings.
The lvmetad connection is created within the
init_connections() path during command startup,
rather than via the old lvmetad_active() check.
The old lvmetad_active() checks are replaced
with lvmetad_used() which is a simple check that
tests if the command is using/connected to lvmetad.
The old lvmetad_set_active(cmd, 0) calls, which
stopped the command from using lvmetad (to revert to
disk scanning), are replaced with lvmetad_make_unused(cmd).
