We can't keep 'display_lvname' for too long - it's using
ringbuffer and keeps limited number of names. So it's
safe only per few simple tests, but can't be used anymore
after some function calls..
(Fixes 00e641ef37)
When command calls backup() more then once (which is actually not
wanted) this warning message is shown repeatedly:
"WARNING: This metadata update is NOT backed up."
Instead now print message just once and less confuse user.
Add this functionality to lvconvert:
'lvconvert --thin cachedLV --thinpool vg/poll'
Converts cachedLV to external origin (which will be read-only).
New thin volume is created in thinpool LV and it's using external
origin as source for unprovisioned chunks.
This conversion happens online (while volume is in use).
Thin LV remains fully writable.
Cached external origin no longer could be written so cache will be used
ONLY for read operations. For this limitation we require cache mode
to be writethrough (as writeback cannot write to read-only volumes).
When thinLV is later removed cached external origin is again
fully usable, just note, LV remain in 'read-only' mode.
When read-write is needed, 'lvchange -prw' has to be used.
Single external origin could be user by multiple thinLV in
multiple differen thin pool.
When cache volume may be converted from normal to -real layer LV
we need to improve logic for call cache_check.
With this patch, we register call for cache_check only when metadata LV
is not yet present in active table slot (should match initial table
load).
This avoids unwanted checking when cache would become layer device
online.
External origin could be reloaded via more locks.
It's actually even more complex then thin-pool,
as it may be active on more nodes for linear LVs
(and maybe even more types).
External origin is always read-only thus unmodifiable
device so there should not be a problem accesing it
through multiple nodes.
Also for thin-pool check first presence of active thin-pool.
FIXME:
It's not easy to detect on which nodes this device is active
Thus manipulation with such device may require checking every
node and it active state and refresh.
But since such setup is quite complex to prepare and use,
hopefully there are not user trying to 'explore' this usage yet.
To be ready to show status of cache volume, call the status
with layer. Layer is automatically detected in this case when
cache volume is used in 'layered' form (needs -real suffix).
Avoid printing misleading message about single dirty block.
Instead properly detect condition where the 'cleaner' policy
needs to be installed without 'overloading' dirty variable.
Also print warning if we would be clearing read-only volume.
(it really shouldn't happen).
External origin could be activated as stand-alone device.
When the last thin LV is removed, external origin is no longer
the external origin and it's layer property was dropped.
Ensure dm table is correct by reloading external origin
(when it's active).
When LV is external origin, show info for LV but
status for -layer. So we expose more info to a user
as otherwise active external origin is only linear
mapping of -real layer.
We do the same for i.e. old snaphost origin.
Activation of raid has brough up also splitted image with tracing
(without taking lock for this).
So when raid is now activate - such image is not put into
table (with _rmeta). When user needs such device, just active it.
RAID is LV property
TODO: only 2 flags are seg->status: PVMOVE & MERGING
At least the second one should be soon elimanted as again
we merge LV not a segment.
This is another place for 'common' use pattern or
reload and activation of deleted devices.
(Moving the exclusive activation to _deactivate_and_remove_lvs()).
TODO: looks like halve of raid function is reloading
just 'origin' - and the other full LV.
Fix order of operation when converting raid1 into old mirror.
Before any later metadata modification are initiated prepare
mirror_log device with all clearing.
Then directly convert raid1 into mirror with mirror_log.
This convertion now properly see as precommitted metadata
new 'mirror' and committed old 'raid' and is able to
preload all LVs.
Simplify info run for use only for INFO & STATUS.
Drop handling MKNODES within _info_run() call
and use more advanced _setup_task_run() directly.
This allows to further simplify _info_run().
Integrate also query for inactive table and
handle dm_task_run() and dm_task_get_info()
(thus switching to setup_task_run)
Add one exception case for DM_DEVICE_TARGET_MSG.
This allows further shortening and simplification of all
other users of this function.
It's actually not needed to call extra lv_has_target_type() to detect
snapshot merge is in progress - decode this right during status
capturing and save even few extra ioctl calls.
Drop LV from passed API arg - it's always segment being checked.
Also use_layer is now in full control of lv_info_with_seg_status().
It decides which device needs to be checked to get 'the most info'.
TODO: future version should be able to expose status from
Start moving selection of status taken for a LV into a single place.
The logic for showing info & status has been spread over multiple
places and were doing too complex decision going agains each other.
Unify selection of status of origin & cow scanned device.
TODO: in future we want to grab status for LV and layered LV and have
both statuses present for display - i.e. when 'old snapshot'
of thinLV is takes and there is ongoing merge - at some moment
we are not capable to show all needed info.
When lvm2 wants to see a status, it needs to validate,
segment for status reading is matching whan lvm2 expects in
metadata.
Also ensure status failure will not cause '0' from info reading
when actual info was collected properly.
Failure in 'status' reading is considered to be
a 'log_warn()' event only.
When we can't parse status, switch to warning as this is not
considered an errornous case. LVS is not supposed to return
error status code when device is not what it's been expected to
be - but it should be WARNING a user there is something unexpected.
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.
Avoid code duplication and use exiting commonly used
lv_update_and_reload() function.
There is still one place left where mirror is doing strange
double suspend call - needs there more thinking what's wrong with
that code.
When lvconvert adds a new leg - it's doing it free 'temporary' image
layer - however this temporary 'internal' mirror is also MIRRORED LV.
But the status bit was not properly transfered through layer.
Do not emit warning message but only log debug message if
lvm2-lvmdbusd.service unit is missing and at the same time
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
only debug message in this case.
Make it easier to replace missing segments with 'zero' returning
target - otherwise user would have to create some extra target
to provide zeros as /dev/zero can't be used (not a block device).
Also break code loop when segment is found and make it an INTERNAL_ERROR
where it's missing.
Instead of clearing multiple rmeta device with sequential activation
process and waiting for udev for every _rmeta device separately,
activate all _rmeta devices first and then clear them and deactivate
afterwards.
Also update some tracing messages.
When anyhing goes wrong during clearing process, always try to
deactivate as much _rmeta devices as possible before fail.
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
(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.

Check for dm-raid target version with non-standard raid4 mapping expecting the dedicated
parity device in the last rather than the first slot and prohibit to create, activate or
convert to such LVs from striped/raid0* or vice-versa in order to avoid data corruption.
Add related tests to lvconvert-raid-takeover.sh
Resolves: rhbz1388962
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
Resolves: rhbz1386148
Seems some error path where not converted to 'new' ECMD return value.
Fix them to always 'goto out'.
Also drop unneeded 'ret = 0' when ret already is 0.
Works if the pool is inactive.
Activation code doesn't notice a new raid dependency in on-disk metadata
when a thin LV is already active.

We shouldn't be losing pvscans just because of the fact that the
underlying device (PV) appears and disappears quickly in the system,
otherwise lvmetad may not see the device if it appears again (or it may
still keep the device in cache even it's already gone).
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).
Pre 1.9 dm-raid targets status output was racy, which caused
the device status chars to be unreliable _during_ synchronization.
This shows paritcularly with tiny test devices used.
Enhance lvchange-rebuild-raid.sh to not check status
chars _during_ synchronization. Just check afterwards.
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.

Commit 199697accf rerouted funtion
for priting cache volume origin to lvm2app app function - which
however had a bug. So restore the original functionality
and print correct LV as cache origin LV.
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()'.
Unconditionally guard there is at least 1/4 of metadata volume
free (<16Mib) or 4MiB - whichever value is smaller.
In case there is not enough free space do not let operation proceed and
recommend thin-pool metadata resize (in case user has not
enabled autoresize, manual 'lvextend --poolmetadatasize' is needed).
In the case there is no active thin volume, report thin pool
as lock holder. This fixed function like lvextend
which either expecte lock holder LV is some active thin
or 'possibly' inactive thin pool.
The existing code doesn't understand that mirror logs should cling to
parallel LVs (like extending them) instead of avoiding them.
As a quick workaround to avoid lvcreate failures, hard-code
--alloc normal for mirror logs even if the rest of the allocation
used a stricter policy.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1376532
Reinstantiate reporting of metadata percent usage for cache volumes.
Also show the same percentage with hidden cache-pool LV.
This regression was caused by optimization for a single-ioctl in
2.02.155.
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.

The lsblk is just a nice helper here - it's not crucial for lvmdump so
do best effort here and use the most we can from current version of
lsblk that is installed on system. The lsblk -s option was added a bit
later after lsblk introduction and lsblk -O support even more later -
so if these are not available, use only pure lsblk output without any
extras.
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).
Introduce 'hard limit' for max number of cache chunks.
When cache target operates with too many chunks (>10e6).
When user is aware of related possible troubles he
may increase the limit in lvm.conf.
Also verbosely inform user about possible solution.
Code works for both lvcreate and lvconvert.
Lvconvert fully supports change of chunk_size when caching LV
(and validates for compatible settings).
Commit e947c362dd introduced
config_settings.h file for central place to store all definitions for
config options. By mistake, it used report/colums_as_rows instead
of report/columns_as_rows (missing "n" in "columns").
If the number of stripes requested is incompatible with the requested
type of raid, give an error instead of adjusting it.
If no stripes argument is supplied, continue to use an appropriate
default.
'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().
- resolves rhbz1202497
We don't need to refresh whole cmd context if we drop profile after
processing LVM command - just like we don't refresh cmd context when
we're applying the profile. It's because profiles contain only safe
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
reinitialization of various parts (e.g. filters, logging etc.).
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.
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).
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.
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).
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.
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.
This patch fixes link validation for used thin-pool.
Udev rules correctly creates symlinks only for unused new thin-pool.
Such thin-pool can be used by foreing apps (like Docker) thus
has /dev/vg/lv link.
However when thin-pool becomes used by thinLV - this link is no
longer exposed to user - but internal verfication missed this
and caused messages like this to be printed upon 'vgchange -ay':
The link /dev/vg/pool should have been created by udev but it was not
found. Falling back to direct link creation.
And same with 'vgchange -an':
The link /dev/vg/pool should have been removed by udev but it is still
present. Falling back to direct link removal.
This patch ensures only unused thin-pool has this link.
This reverts commit fa69ed0bc8.
This code sometimes expects to be presented with a read-only filesystem
(during some boot sequences for example) and copes appropriately with
this and it should not lead to expected error messages that might cause
unnecessary alarm.
Add code to support more LVs to be resized through a same code path
using a single lvresize_params struct.
(Now it's used for thin-pool metadata resize,
next user will be snapshot virtual resize).
Update code to adjust percent amount resize for use_policies.
Properly activate inactive thin-pool in case of any pool resize
as the command should not 'deffer' this operation to next activation.
We have only 2 users of _lv_active() - one was already checking for ==1
while the other use (_lv_is_active()) could have take '-1' as a sign of having
an LV active. So return 0 and log_debug also the reason while detection
has failed (i.e. in case --driverload n - it's kind of expectable,
but might have confused user seeing just <backtrace>).
log_print is used during cmd line processing to log the result of the
operation (e.g. "Volume group vg successfully changed" and similar).
We don't want output from log_print to be interleaved with current
reports from group where log is reported as well. Also, the information
printed by log_print belongs to the log report too, so it should be
rerouted to log report if it's set.
Since the code in libdm-report which is responsible for doing the report
output uses log_print too, we need to use a different kind of log_print
which bypasses any log report currently used for logging (...simply,
we can't call log_print to output the log report itself which in turn
would again reroute to report - the report would never get on output
this way).
This patch adds structures and functions to reroute error and warning
logs to log report, if it's set.
There are 5 new functions:
- log_set_report
Set log report where logging will be rerouted.
- log_set_report_context
Set context globally so any report_cmdlog call will use it.
- log_set_report_object_type
Set object type globally so any report_cmdlog call will use it.
- log_set_report_object_name_and_id
Set object ID and name globally so any report_cmdlog call will use it.
- log_set_report_object_group_and_group_id
Set object group ID and name globally so any report_cmdlog call will use it.
These functions will be called during LVM command processing so any logs
which are rerouted to log report contain proper information about current
processing state.
The lvm fullreport works per VG and as such, the vg, lv, pv, seg and
pvseg subreport is done for each VG. However, if the PV is not part of
any VG yet, we still want to display pv and pvseg subreports for these
"orphan" PVs - so enable this for lvm fullreport's process_each_vg call.
Groupable args (the ones marked with ARG_GROUPABLE flag) start a new
group of args if:
- this is the first time we hit such a groupable arg,
- or if non-countable arg is repeated.
However, there may be cases where we want to give priorities when
forming groups and hence force new group creation if we hit an arg
with higher grouping priority.
For example, let's assume (for now) hypothetical sequence of args used:
lvs -o lv_name --configreport log -o log_type --configreport lv -o +vg_name
Without giving any priorites, we end up with:
lvs -o lv_name --configreport log -o log_type --configreport lv -o +vg_name
| | | | | |
\__________GROUP1___________/ \________GROUP2___________/ \_GROUP3_/
This is because we hit "-o" as the first groupable arg. The --configreport,
even though it's groupable too, it falls into the previous "-o" group.
While we may need to give priority to the --configreport arg that should
always start a new group in this scenario instead:
lvs -o lv_name --configreport log -o log_type --configreport lv -o +vg_name
| | | | | |
\_GROUP1_/ \_________GROUP2___________/ \_________GROUP3__________/
So here "-o" started a new group but since "--configreport" has higher
priority than "-o", it starts fresh new group now and hence the rest of
the command line's args are grouped by --configreport now.
lvm fullreport executes 5 subreports (vg, pv, lv, pvseg, seg) per each VG
(and so taking one VG lock each time) within one command which makes it
easier to produce full report about LVM entities.
Since all 5 subreports for a VG are done under a VG lock, the output is
more consistent mainly in cases where LVM entities may be changed in
parallel.
Wire up report group creation with log report in struct
processing_handle and call report_format_init during processing handle
initialization (init_processing_handle fn) and destroy it while
destroing processing handle (destroy_processing_handle fn).
This way, all the LVM command processing using processing handle
has access to log report via which the current command log
can be reported as items are processed.
New report/output_format configuration sets the output format used
for all LVM commands globally. Currently, there are 2 formats
recognized:
- basic (the classical basic output with columns and rows, used by default)
- json (output is in json format)
Add new --reportformat option and new report_format_init function that
checks this option and creates new report group accordingly, also
preparing log report handle and adding it to the report group just
created.
This is a preparation for new CMDLOG report type which is going to be
used for reporting LVM command log.
The new report type introduces several new fields (log_seq_num, log_type,
log_context, log_object_type, log_object_group, log_object_id, object_name,
log_message, log_errno, log_ret_code) as well as new configuration settings
to set this report type (report/command_log_sort and report/command_log_cols
lvm.conf settings).
This patch also introduces internal report_cmdlog helper function
which is a wrapper over dm_report_object to report command log via
CMDLOG report type and which is going to be used throughout the code
to report the log items.
Original code missed to catch all apperances of SIGINT.
Also enhance logging when running in shell without tty.
Accept this regex as valid input:

Commit #5b3a4a9 caused the "name" variable to be cleared if

If configuration consists of several sources in config cascade
("config cascade" defined in man lvmconfig(8)), lvmconfig displayed
only difference from defaults of the topmost config in the cascade.
Fix lvmconfig to display complete difference, considering all

For example, before this patch:

$ lvmconfig --type diff
global {
use_lvmetad=0
}
(compact_output=1 set on cmd line)

Treat loop device created with 'losetup -P' as regular
partitioned device - so if it has partition table,
prevent its usage in commands like 'pvcreate'.
Before 'pvcreate /dev/loop0' could have erased and formated as PV,
after this patch, device is filtered out and cannot be used.
Before this fix, when reporting 'lvm devtypes', the report was
initialized with incorrect reserved values - the ones used for
pvs/vgs/lvs report were used instead of NULL value (because devtypes
doesn't have any reserved values).
For example, trying to (incorrectly) use lv_name for the -S|--select
with lvm devtypes which doesn't have this field at all:
Before this patch (internal error issued):
$ lvm devtypes -S 'lv_name=lvol0'
Internal error: _check_reserved_values_supported: field-specific reserved value of type 0x0 for field not supported
Internal error: dm_report_init_with_selection: trying to register unsupported reserved value type, skipping report selection

With this patch applied (correct error displayed about

Convert fields into using a single status ioctl call per LV.
This is a bit tricky since when there are more complicated
stacks, at this moment its undefined which values should be shown.
It's clear we need to cache more then single ioctl per LV,
but also we need to define more explicitely relation between
reported values for snapshots.
This patch is not a final state, rather a transitional step.
It should not be giving more 'worst' values then previous
many-ioctl-calls-per-lv solution.
Add function to obtain percentage value for cache lv_seg_status.
This API is rather evolving 'middle' step as the ultimate goal
is segment API fuctionality.
But first we need to be clear at reporting level which values
are needed to be reported for which LVs and segments.
Add more code to properly store status for snapshot segment
maintaining lvm2 fiction of COW and snapshot internal volumes.
The key issue here is however not though-through reporting
logic - as there is no single answer for whole line state.
It not counting with layer and we may need few more ioctl to
cover all reporting needs depending upon what is actually
needed.
In reality we need to 'cache' more ioctl status queries for
individual LVs and their segments (so they checked at most once).
The other 'hard' topic for conversion is mirror segment handling.
Also we definitelly need to relocate some logic into segment's methods,
yet it might be complex as we have not clear border between targets.
TODO: define more clearly how are reporting fields defined in case
we 'stack' volumes like - cache of stacked thin LV snapshot origin.
lv_refresh_suspend_resume() has escaped with fail ret code
after failing suspend and could have left many volumes in suspend state.
So always unconditionally call resume also when suspend has failed.
To get better control when flushing is used add extra arg when
setting up dm task.
By default now check dm device status without flush.
(At this moment this should effect only thin and cache volumes).
Also switch dev_manager_thin_pool_status() to use more
readable 'flush' parameter instead of 'no_flush'.
Check first the LV is cow before even checking it's a merging COW.
Note: previosly merging_cow was also merging origin, so without
this explicit check it used to return '1' also when passed
LV has been merging origin.
When mirror/raid called copy_percent function to return,
when 100% was supposed to be returned, wrong float 100.0 value
could have been reported back instead of dm_percent_t DM_PERCENT_100.
There is broken API somewhere, since the function here rely on
actively being modifid VG content even when doing 'lvs' operation.
(extents_copies)
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.
Support parsing --chunksize option also when converting.
Now user can use cache pool created with i.e. 32K chunksize,
while in caching user can select 512K blocks.
Tool is supposed to validate cache metadata size is big enough
to support such chunk size. Otherwise error is shown.
If there's an activation volume_filter, it might not be possible
to activate the rmeta LVs to wipe them. At least inherit any
LV tags from the parent LV while attempting this.
Before executing modprobe for given module name, just check
if the module is not already present in /sys/module.
Useful when checking dm-cache-policy modules as we do not
having matching interface like for targets.
vg/snapshotN should not appear anywhere.
No code should be showing this, but it was noticed in some logs last
week and we can deal with it in display_lvname().
To recognize in runtime if we are merging or not
to make consistent decision between suspend and resume
add function to parse thin table line when add
merging thin device to the table.
A snapshot merge into its origin cannot be initiated while the devices
are in use. If there is outside interference (such as from udev),
the suspend (preload) and resume stages can reach conflicting decisions
about whether or not to proceed.
Try to make the logic more robust by checking the inactive or live
table during resume. (This is still not perfect.)
Commit 971ab733b7 ("thin: activation of
merging thin snapshot") also added an incorrect deactivation attempt
for non-thin LVs: find_snapshot(lv)->lv is not designed to be
activated and any attempt to deactivate it is incorrect.
When not obtaining device from udev, we are doing deep devdir scan,
and at the same time we try to insert everything what /sys/dev/block
knows about. However in case lvm2 is configured to use nonstardard
devdir this way it will see (and scan) devices from a real system.
lvm2 test suite is using its own test devdir with its
own device nodes. To avoid touching real /dev devices, validate
the device node exist in give dir and do not insert such device
into a cache.
With obtain list from udev this patch has no effect
(the normal user path).
We have _insert_dirs() for udev and non-udev compilation.
Compiling without udev missed to call dev_cache_index_devs().
Move the call after _insert_dirs() call so both compilation
gets it.
When scanning if device is being usable as PV,
we call STATUS - but this status should not cause
any flushing.
Skip also open_count information as it's not needed.
Devices without "LVM-" uuid prefix have been generated by very old
version of lvm2 2.00 and 2.01.
Since version 2.02 all lvm2 devices are using prefix "LVM-".
However checking for present of ancient non prefixed devices does
take extra IOCTL per every call and for majority of todays user
it will not find anything new.
So use the assumption that users with kernel 3.X and newer are not
really using such old versions of lvm2 (year <2005) and with their
new kernel they are also using new version of lvm2 and skip
checking for them.
This change also makes trace logs more readable.
This is hotfix for RHBZ: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1324537
However already the %FREE is not a good fit and we need something
better. Meanwhile make -l%PVS work at least as good as %FREE
for thin-pool.
TODO: this needs rework - it should be allocator to do all the size
decisions at one place.
Use meta% to expose highest mapped sector in thinLV.
so showing there 100.00% means thinLV maps latest sector.
Currently using a 'trick' with total_numerator to pass-in
device size when 'seg==NULL'
TODO: Improve device status API per target - current 'percentage'
is not really extensible.
Previous fix missed the fact the we do query for 'percent' with
seg value either set or unset (API overload...)
When 'seg' was unset, we still issue flush with status.
Fix it by cheking segtype by target_type.
As we check for segtype - we could also skip whole percentage
if the 'segtype' is unknown by code directly.

It's correct to have a DM device that has no DM UUID assigned
so no need to issue error message in this case. Also, if the
device doesn't have DM UUID, it's also clear it's not an LVM LV
(...when looking for VGID/LVID while creating VGID/LVID indices
in dev cache).
For example:
$ dmsetup create test --table "0 1 linear /dev/sda 0"
And there's no PV in the system.
Before this patch (spurious error message issued):
$ pvs
_get_sysfs_value: /sys/dev/block/253:2/dm/uuid: no value
With this patch applied (no spurious error message):
$ pvs
If we're using persistent .cache file, we're reading this file instead
of traversing the /dev content. Fix missing indexing by VGID and LVID
here - hook this into persistent_filter_load where we populate device
cache from persistent .cache file instead of scanning /dev.
For example, inducing situation in which we warn about different device
actually used than what LVM thinks should be used based on metadata:
$ lsblk -s /dev/vg/lvol0
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
vg-lvol0 253:4 0 124M 0 lvm
`-loop1 7:1 0 128M 0 loop
$ lvmconfig --type diff
global {
use_lvmetad=0
}
devices {
obtain_device_list_from_udev=0
}
(obtain_device_list_from_udev=0 also means the persistent .cache file is used)
Before this patch - pvs is fine as it does the dev scan, but lvs relies
on persistent .cache file and it misses the VGID/LVID indices to check
and warn about incorrect devices used:
$ pvs

always created correctly (lvs just an example here, other LVM commands
that rely on persistent .cache file are fixed with this patch too):

It's possible that while a device is already referenced in sysfs, the node
is not yet in /dev directory.
This may happen in some rare cases right after LVs get created - we sync
with udev (or alternatively we create /dev content ourselves) while VG
lock is held. However, dev scan is done without VG lock so devices may
already be in sysfs, but /dev may not be updated yet if we call LVM command
right after LV creation (so the fact that fs_unlock is done within VG
lock is not usable here much). This is not a problem with devtmpfs as
there's at least kernel name for device in /dev as soon as the sysfs
item exists, but we still support environments without devtmpfs or
where different directory for dev nodes is used (e.g. our test suite).
This patch covers these situations by tracking such devices in
_cache.sysfs_only_names helper hash for the vgid/lvid check to work still.
This also resolves commit 6129d2e64d
which was then reverted by commit 109b7e2095
due to performance issues it may have brought (...and it didn't resolve
the problem fully anyway).
It's possible for an LVM LV to use a device during activation which
then differs from device which LVM assumes based on metadata later on.
For example, such device mismatch can occur if LVM doesn't have
complete view of devices during activation or if filters are
misbehaving or they're incorrectly set during activation.
This patch adds code that can detect this mismatch by creating
VG UUID and LV UUID index while scanning devices for device cache.
The VG UUID index maps VG UUID to a device list. Each device in the
list has a device layered above as a holder which is an LVM LV device
and for which we know the VG UUID (and similarly for LV UUID index).
We can acquire VG and LV UUID by reading /sys/block/<dm_dev_name>/dm/uuid.
So these indices represent the actual state of PV device use in
the system by LVs and then we compare that to what LVM assumes
based on metadata.
For example:
[0] fedora/~ # lsblk /dev/sdq /dev/sdr /dev/sds /dev/sdt
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sdq 65:0 0 104M 0 disk
|-vg-lvol0 253:2 0 200M 0 lvm
`-mpath_dev1 253:3 0 104M 0 mpath
sdr 65:16 0 104M 0 disk
`-mpath_dev1 253:3 0 104M 0 mpath
sds 65:32 0 104M 0 disk
|-vg-lvol0 253:2 0 200M 0 lvm

sdt 65:48 0 104M 0 disk
`-mpath_dev2 253:4 0 104M 0 mpath
In this case the vg-lvol0 is mapped onto sdq and sds becauset this is
what was available and seen during activation. Then later on, sdr and
sdt appeared and mpath devices were created out of sdq+sdr (mpath_dev1)
and sds+sdt (mpath_dev2). Now, LVM assumes (correctly) that mpath_dev1
and mpath_dev2 are the PVs that should be used, not the mpath
components (sdq/sdr, sds/sdt).

The /proc/self/mountinfo is not bound to device names like /proc/mounts
and it uses major:minor pairs instead.
This fixes a situation in which a volume is mounted and then renamed
later on - that makes /proc/mounts unreliable when detecting mounted
volumes.

Commit b64703401d cause regression

Continuing with lvconvert style updates.
Minimize usage of '\:' as zero-width break space, since html renderers

But since we do not want see badly rendered man pages itself, prefer

be actually fixed).
Start to use 'user input option' with Capitals more consistently.
Fixing vpath usage as it has been checking for existance of
generated file also in the $(scrdir) e.g.:
No need to remake target '10-dm.rules.in'; using VPATH name '...'
If the $(srcdir) had been also $(builddir) and contained already
generated rules file, it's been used instead generating new
one.

Commit abd9618dd8 tried to improve
parsing of vg name from logical path - but still missed couple
corner cases.
This patch further improves the logic and reuses
validate_lvname_param() for parsing of lv_name.
Also explicitly checks for LVM_VG_NAME in the right case.
So now also properly parses cases like:
'lvconvert --repairt vg/'
and will provide correct error message.
Specifying an output width of 0 now leads to a default minimum width
taken from the width of the column heading. (Most fields should use
this.)
Components of field names are generally separated by underscores (which
are optional at run-time). (Dropped 3 duplicate fields now covered by
this rule.)
Each field heading must be unique and generally doesn't have spaces
between words (which get capitalised) unless they are already short and
the fields are normally longer or clarity demands it.
This command option can be used to trigger a D-Bus
notification independent of the usual notifications
that are sent from other commands as an effect of
changes to PV/VG/LV state. If lvm is not built with
dbus notification support or if notify_dbus is disabled
in the config, this command will exit with an error.
When a command modifies a PV or VG, or changes the
activation state of an LV, it will send a dbus
notification when the command is finished. This
can be enabled/disabled with a config setting.
Pair kernel_cache_settings with kernel_cache_policy.
There is very small chance in error case that the value in table
might be differnet from the value stored in metadata
so make it 'checkable'.
Showing 'u' in the pv_attr reporting field is mostly unnecessary because
most PVs are allocatable, and being allocatable implies it is (u)sed,
and this is already obvious from other fields in the default 'pvs'
output like the VG name.
So move the new (u)sed pv_attr from character position 4 to 1, and only
show it in those rare cases when the PV is not (a)llocatable or the
relevant metadata is missing.
(Scripts should not be using pv_attr, but rather pv_allocatable,
pv_exported, pv_missing, pv_in_use etc.)
Correct name is lvm2-lvmdbusd.service not lvmdbusd.service.
This makes the bus-activation (auto-activation) work.

currently do not work fast enough in this case.
When update fails in suspend() (sending of messages
fails because metadata space is full) call resume(),
so the locking sequence works properly for clustering.
Also failing deactivation should unlock memory.

If we know that a PV belongs to some VG and we're missing metadata
(because we have only those PV(s) from VG present in the system that
don't have metadata areas), we should skip such PV when processing
under system ID.
This is because we know that the PV belongs to some VG, but we
really can't decide whether it matches system ID unless the VG
metadata is present again.
This is a hotfix for a bug introduced in
6d7dc87cb3.
The bug description: First we allocate memory for
processing handle (at an address 1) then we
allocate some memory on the same pool for later use
in pvmove_poll function inside the process_each_pv
function (at an address 2). After we jump out of
process_each_pv we called destroy_processing_handle.
As a result of destroying the handle memory pool could
deallocate all memory at address 1 or higher. The
pvmove_poll function tried to copy a memory allocated
at address 2 that could be returned to the system.
If it was so it led to segfault.
We need to rethink proper fix but in the same time
cmd->mem pool is recreated per each lvm command so
this should not cause problems even when we run
multiple commands in lvm shell.

Normally, we generate and provide lvm.conf file where use_blkid_wiping
is set based on whether support for this is compiled in or not. This was
generated properly based on configure.
However, if lvm.conf is not used at all (someone deletes it) or the value
in lvm.conf is commented out (user edited it), we still need to use
proper default value that is based on DEFAULT_USE_BLKID_WIPING taken
from configure script - we used hardcoded value of "1" in this case
by mistake.
We already do check for suspended devs within udev rules where
the pvscan is to update lvmetad. So the check for suspended devs
in "pre-lvmetad" chain is not useful here - remove it - it may
be a source of hardly to detect races anyway (if udev rule detects
the device is not suspended and then the pvscan instance sees the
dev as suspended, we may end up not reacting to the event properly).
Non-dm devices have ID_PART_TABLE_TYPE variable exported in
udev db from blkid scan for *both* whole devices and partitions.
We used ID_PART_ENTRY_DISK in addition to decide whether this
is the whole device or partition and then we filtered out only
whole devices where the partition table really is.
However, ID_PART_ENTRY_DISK was added in blkid 2.20 so we need
to use a different set of variables to decide on whole devices
and partitions on systems where older blkid is still used.
Now, we use ID_PART_TABLE_TYPE to detect that there's something
related to partitioning with this device and we use DEVTYPE variable
instead to decide between whole device (DEVTYPE="disk") and partition
(DEVTYPE="partition").
For dm devices it's simpler, we have ID_PART_TABLE_TYPE variable\
set in udev db for whole devices. It's not set for partitions,
hence we don't need more variable in addition to make the decision
on whole device vs. partition (dm devices do not have regular
partitions, hence DEVTYPE can't be used anyway, it's always set
to "disk" for whole disks and partitions).
Add "size" and "size_seqno" to struct device to cache device's size
and also to control its lifetime - the cached value is valid as long
as the global _dev_size_seqno is equal to the device's size_seqno,
otherwise we need to get the size again and cache the new value.
This patch also adds new dev_size_seqno_inc() fn for the appropriate
parts of the code to increment current global value of _dev_size_seqno
and hence to cause all currently cached values for device sizes to
be invalidated.
The device size is now cached because we're planning to reuse this
information for further checks and we want to avoid checking it more
than necessary to save resources.
Fix regression caused by c9f021de0b.
This commit actually transfered real-action (e.g. device removal)
into the next loop which has however missed to check for break.
So add check for break also there.
When creating a list in 'context of command' - use proper mempool.

allocation/use_blkid_wiping" setting to "1" (enabled) if proper
blkid library version was not found or the version found was less
than the minimum required. It should be set to "0" in this case.
Since commit 2fc126b00d, the library
code requires udev to be initialised for device scanning and
clvmd can fail to find VGs if devices/external_device_info_source
is set to "udev".
There are two basic groups of fields for LV segment device reporting:
- related to LV segment's devices: devices and seg_pe_ranges
- related to LV segment's metadata devices: metadata_devices and seg_metadata_le_ranges
The devices and metadata_devices report devices in this format:
"device_name(extent_start)"
The seg_pe_ranges and seg_metadata_le_ranges report devices in
this format:
"device_name:extent_start-extent_end"
This patch reverts partly what commit 7f74a99502
(v 2.02.140) introduced in this area - it added [] for
hidden devices to mark them for all four fields mentioned above.
We won't be marking hidden devices in devices and metadata_devices
fields.
The seg_metadata_le_ranges field will have hidden devices marked -
it's new enough that we don't need to care about compatibility much
yet.
The seg_pe_ranges is old enough that we shouldn't be changing this
one - so we're reverting to not marking hidden devices here.
Instead, there's going to be a new field "seg_le_ranges" which
is going to replace the seg_pe_ranges and it will mark hidden devices -
this is going to be introduced in a patch later.
So in the end we'll end up with:
(LV segment's devices)
devices field with "device_name(extent_start)" format, not marking hidden devices
seg_pe_ranges field with "device_name:extent_start-extent_end" format, not marking hidden devices (deprecated, new seg_le_ranges should be used instead for standardized format)
seg_le_ranges field with "device_name:extent_start-extent_end" format, marking hidden devices
(LV segment's metadata devices)
metadata_devices field with "device_name:extent_start-extent_end" format, not marking hidden devices
seg_metadata_le_ranges field with "device_name:extent_start-extent_end" format, marking hidden devices
Also, both seg_le_ranges and seg_metadata_le_ranges will honour the
report/list_item_separator setting which can be used to configure
the delimiter used for list items.
So, to sum it up, we will recommend using the new seg_le_ranges and
seg_metadata_le_ranges fields because they display devices with
standard extent range format, they can mark hidden devices and they
honour the report/list_item_separator setting.
We'll be keeping devices,seg_pe_ranges and metadata_devices fields
for compatibility.
When reporting on LVs, take the end of the range from the size of the
underlying (hidden) LV rather than the logical size of the current
segment (that PVs use).
Existing cache_settings field displays the settings which are
saved in metadata. Add new kernel_cache_settings fields to display
the settings which are currently used by kernel, including fields
for which default values are used.
This way users have complete view of the set of cache settings
supported (and which they can set) and their values which are used
at the moment by kernel.
For example:
$ lvs -o name,cache_policy,cache_settings,kernel_cache_settings vg
LV Cache Policy Cache Settings KCache Settings
cached1 mq migration_threshold=1024,write_promote_adjustment=2 migration_threshold=1024,random_threshold=4,sequential_threshold=512,discard_promote_adjustment=1,read_promote_adjustment=4,write_promote_adjustment=2
cached2 smq migration_threshold=1024 migration_threshold=1024
cached3 smq migration_threshold=2048
Fix lvm2app to return either 0 or 1 for lvm_vg_is_{clustered,exported},
including internal functions pvseg_is_allocated and vg_is_resizeable
which are not yet exposed in lvm2app but make them consistent with the
rest.
Thin pool discard mode set in metadata can be different from the one
actually used if any device underneath does not support that mode. Add
kernel_discard report field to make it possible to see this difference.
Use common _lvname_disp to report lv_parent. The _lvname_disp
takes care of properly marking LVs which are not visible - such
LVs are always enclosed in brackets when reported within any
other field.
For example, thin pool over RAID.

Fix regression caused by commit c2d4330f27
which removed the dm_pool_strdup for the cache policy name in
_cache_policy_disp report function.
This regression was hit with buffered reporting only (which is
used by default). The reason is that for buffered reporting, we're
iterating over LVs in VG (process_each_lv) while gathering
all the information that is needed for the report. In this case,
the LV's cache policy name has not been duped, but only the pointer
to the original VG buffer was stored. When the LV iteration finished,
the VG buffer was freed and any report to output called later
(dm_report_output call) accessed already freed VG data.
This didn't appear if unbuffered reporting was used (--unbuffered)
because in this case, the data were reported to output as
soon as they were processed, hence it was reported to output
before the VG data was freed.
The lvm2-activation{-early,-net}.service systemd unit statuses were missing
in dump gathered by lvmdump -s. These are quite important when debugging
scenarios with systemd environment and where lvmetad is not used.
Pass full buffer size to printf() function - no reason to make
buffer 1 char smaller.
Also rename locn buffer to message buffer directly since it's
not used for anything else.
TODO: we may use same buffer also for 'buf[]' since there is
no collision - so may safe 1K on stack usage.
Just for convenience to display all new configuration settings
introduced since given version (before, there was only --atversion
to display settings introduced in concrete version).
For example:
$ lvmconfig --type new --sinceversion 2.2.120
allocation {
# cache_mode="writethrough"
# cache_settings {
# }
}
global {
use_lvmlockd=0
# lvmlockd_lock_retries=3
# sanlock_lv_extend=256
use_lvmpolld=1
}
activation {
}
# report {
# compact_output_cols=""
# time_format="%Y-%m-%d %T %z"
# }
local {
# host_id=0
}
When 'lvextend -L+XX vg/thinpool' do not leave inactive table
loaded for 'wrapping' LV on top of resized thin-pool
(ATM we use linear LV for this with same size as thin-pool).
Udev recently start to 'link-in' major amount of useless libs.
(Seem to be faulty 'systemd' link-in all issue)
Anyway - avoid locking those libs in RAM.
Avoid internal error message where thin pool repair code tries to
fix cache pool - was catched later in code stack, so rather
catch this early and make the repair function exlusive
to thin pools.
So far we have no code for repairing cache pools
(other then the automatic during activation/deactivation).
When reading older lvm2 metadata for cache-pool - we now handle more
extended syntax - basically we want to enter most setting when
actually creating cached LV.
For this new validation code has been added. However older metadata
without new settings set is now found as invalid.
Fix it by adding default settings for cache policy mq
and cache mode writethrough.
Udev db records are marked as not initialized (incomplete) on timeout.
Issue an error message whenever LVM finds such records so users are
aware that something's going wrong with udev db.
This is important in case we use devices/external_device_info_source="udev"
where udev database records are used to do various filtering decisions.
For example:
udev log of timed out worker:
Nov 11 13:02:25 raw.virt systemd-udevd[607]: seq 1997 '/devices/virtual/block/dm-2' is taking a long time
Nov 11 13:04:25 raw.virt systemd-udevd[607]: seq 1997 '/devices/virtual/block/dm-2' killed
Nov 11 13:04:25 raw.virt systemd-udevd[607]: worker [11221] terminated by signal 9 (Killed)
Nov 11 13:04:25 raw.virt systemd-udevd[607]: worker [11221] failed while handling '/devices/virtual/block/dm-2'
...
LVM also issues error message visibly if incomplete udev db record is found,
devices/external_device_info_source="udev" is set:
$ pvs
Udev database has incomplete information about device /dev/dm-2.
Failed to get external handle for device /dev/dm-2 [udev].
...
Doing 'stat' checking first and later opening is racy.
And since we do not really care about any 'status' info
here and we read 'sysfs' here - just drop whole 'stat()'
call and directly handle error from failing 'fopen()'.
Currently the code creates the log separately after allocating space for
the data and as no data allocation is needed this second time,
total_extents ends up holding zero so use new_extents directly instead.
Now with correctly functioning dmeventd enable usage of
low_water_mark for faster reaction on pool's threshold.
When user select e.g. 80% as a threshold value,
dmeventd doesn't need to wait 10 seconds till monitoring
timer expires, but nearly instantly resizes thin-pool
to fit bellow threshold.
The former patch(dab3ebce4c) is a little bit strict. For example, it is
OK to create PV on unpartitioned DASD devices with LDL formatted. So
after lvm version containing the patch, LVs created on those devices
could not be found.

Recognize the target only 'extends' and do not enforce
'flush' in this case. Only the size reduction
still requires flush (so disables usage of no_flush flag).
If some other targets do require flush before suspend,
they have to explicitly ask for it.
While the activation code tries to evaluate which target
really needs flush with suspend and which may go without flush,
it has stayed effectively disabled by original commit:
33f732c5e9 since here
it only allows to pass non-pvmoving 'mirrors'.
So remove check for mirror LV type and only disable
no_flush for 'pvmove'..
TODO: Looking into history - it also seemed like raid target
would have always required flushing but it's been later
removed without clean explanation.
If some more targets really do need 'no_flush' it should
been handle at their 'level' - since we now stack multiple
targets over itself.
Use single code to evaluate if the percentage value has
crossed threshold.
Recalculate amount value to always fit bellow
threshold so there are not need any extra reiterations
to reach this state in case policy amount is too small.
Since plugin's percentage compare has been fixed,
it's now revealed wrong compare here.
The logic for threshold is - to allow to go as high
as given value e.g. 80% - so if pool is exactlu 80%
full it's still allowed to use it (dmeventd will not
resize it).
When lvmetad is used and lvmcache update function (lvmcache_update_vgname_and_id)
was called to update existing lvmcache records, a condition was met
which made to retun from the update function immediately, effectively
making it NOOP.
It seems there's no reason for such condition and lvmcache should be
update appropriately even when lvmetad used as lvmcache may be reused,
most notably in lvm shell.
It's possible this is a remnant of the lvmetad development code which
didn't get removed for some reason and the bug didn't get spotted
because lvm shell is not used often (the condition dates back to 2012
or so).
Example, lvmetad and lvm shell used:
lvm> pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda vg lvm2 a-- 124.00m 124.00m
Before this patch:
==================
lvm> vgremove vg
Volume group "vg" successfully removed
lvm> pvs
With this patch applied:
========================
lvm> vgremove vg
Volume group "vg" successfully removed
lvm> pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
The lvmcache info might be resued, most notably in lvm shell.
We need to be sure that even lvmcache_info marked as invalid
is removed from the lvmcache so it does not confuse any subsequent
code/commands executed later on.
Problematic example with the lvm shell:
lvm> pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
Before this patch (/dev/sda still displayed in a way):
======================================================
lvm> pvremove /dev/sda
Labels on physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully wiped
(without lvmetad)
lvm> pvs
No physical volume label read from /dev/sda
(with lvmetad)
lvm> pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
With this patch applied:

CONVERTING status flag is a tricky one. It's not set when converting
a non-mirror LV type to the mirror type, i.e.: linear -> two leg mirror.
Also the conversion itself is instant and doesn't require to be polled.
When mirror reaches sync state there's no final update on VG metadata
for lvmpolld to be made thereby report_progress in fact doesn't report
percentage of mirror being converted but percentage of mirror
being in sync. Perhaps we should reword the lvconvert output here.
On the other hand CONVERTING is set while we upconvert the mirror
from i.e. two leg mirror to four leg mirror. In such case the operation
is required to be polled so that lvmpolld can cleanup temporary
conversion log when the conversion is over.
Ignore CONVERTING lv_type for the moment and match LVs only by uuids
during 'mirror conversion'/'waiting for a sync to finish'.
The new report/compact_output_cols setting has exactly the same effect
as report/compact_output setting. The difference is that with the new
setting it's possible to define which cols should be compacted exactly
in contrast to all cols in case of report/compact_output.
In case both compact_output and compact_output_cols is enabled/set,
the compact_output prevails.
For example:
$ lvmconfig --type full report/compact_output report/compact_output_cols
compact_output=0
compact_output_cols=""
$ lvs vg
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Meta% Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
lvol0 vg -wi-a----- 4.00m
---
$ lvmconfig --type full report/compact_output report/compact_output_cols
compact_output=0
compact_output_cols="data_percent,metadata_percent,pool_lv,move_pv,origin"
$ lvs vg
LV VG Attr LSize Log Cpy%Sync Convert
lvol0 vg -wi-a----- 4.00m
---
$ lvmconfig --type full report/compact_output report/compact_output_cols
compact_output=1
compact_output_cols="data_percent,metadata_percent,pool_lv,move_pv,origin"
$ lvs vg
LV VG Attr LSize
lvol0 vg -wi-a----- 4.00m
This reverts commit 1b1c01a27b.
This caused messages to get dropped instead of logged into the log file.
(The log file and log function are independent at the moment.)
Some signatures are spread around the disk in several copies, mainly for
backup. Make libblkid to detect these extra copies - there was missing
"blkid_probe_step_back" fn call after successful wipe of previous signature
copy.
An example with FAT table which has copies:
$ mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
Before this patch:
$ pvcreate /dev/sda1

(the new VG name is prefix of existing VG name)
$ vgimportclone -n vg /dev/sdb
(the new VG name is suffix of existing VG name)
$ vgimportclone -n gA /dev/sdc
Before this patch:
------------------
(we end up with "vg1" and "gA1" names with the "1" suffix which is not needed)
$ vgs -o vg_name
VG
gA1
vg1
vgA
With this patch applied:
------------------------
(we end up with "vg" and "gA" names as they're unique already and no extra suffix is added)
$ # vgs -o vg_name
VG
gA
vg
vgA
Of course, if the name supplied is not unique, the number is added correctly:
$ dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=1M
$ vgimportclone -n vgA /dev/sdb
$ vgs -o vg_name
VG
vgA
vgA1
We can replace the expressions with awk/grep/cut/tr with --select now and
more suitable reporting options and modes. Also, we don't need to check
the temporary lvm.conf generated within vgimportclone script since we're
generating it ourselves now using lvmconfig, not using sed anymore like
it was before (so we can be pretty sure it's correct - we use lvmconfig
now even for generating the lvm.conf itself).
We already have pv_count to report number of PVs that a VG has based
on metadata.
This patch exposes the information about how many of these PVs are
missing which is also useful information for a VG. Wwe could count
the sum of pv_missing reporting fields for each PV in the VG before,
but the new field is practical when reporting VG as a whole and there's
no need to process each PV from VG alone.

Add metadata_devices and seg_metadata_le_ranges report fields.
Currently only defined for raid, but should probably be extended
to all other segment types that don't report all their device
usage in the 'devices' field.
We want most of our units to be started before any local/remote mount
points are mounted - we used {local,remote}-fs.target for this purpose
before, but it was not 100% correct as there's even {local,remote}-fs-pre.target
special systemd unit reserved for this exact purpose.
See also man 7 systemd.special and "local-fs-pre.target"/"remote-fs-pre.target"
description.
When using lvm shell, some structures which are cached in memory may be
reused. This happens for the struct label (a part of lvmcache_info
structure) when lvmetad is used in which case the PV scan is not
done that would normally overwrite these label structures in memory
and making them up-to-date.
This is all consequence of the fact that struct lvmcache_info and
struct label are not always assigned in the same part of the code.
For example, if lvmetad *is not* used, parts of the struct label are
reassigned in label_read fn while struct lvmcache_info is created
elsewhere. No part of the code reused struct label (and its "dev"
field) before calling label_read fn. That's why the real bug is
hidden when using lvm shell without lvmetad.
However, with lvmetad and lvm shell, the situation is a bit different.
The label_read fn is not called if lvmetad *is* used, hence the
struct label may have ended up not initialized properly.
There was missing assignment for the dev field in struct label
in _text_pv_write fn which caused this problem to appear in
lvm shell with lvmetad, for example:
Before this patch:
lvm> pvcreate /dev/sda
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
lvm> pvs /dev/sda
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
unknown device lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
With this patch applied:
lvm> pvcreate /dev/sda
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
lvm> pvs /dev/sda
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
Also, this problem had not appeared before changes introduced
by commits e1a63905d1 through
3a6f91d713 which, among other
things, added proper label field type reporting. Before, label
reporting was the same as using struct physical_volume which
has its own dev field assigned and so this problem was not exposed.
Commit 00b36ef06a had a typo
and missed '{' for shell variable, thus command used slightly
different 'tmp' dir name for cache dir (with extra '}').
Such change was unnoticed until a recent fix in persistent
filter, lvm2 missed to update cache file when --config
was specified.
The result was, /tmp dir was accumulating snap.XXXXX} dirs when
running vgimportclose script.
Since we may want to swap names when LVs are complex types, we cannot
avoid doing full renames on both LV stacks.
Temporarily use 'pvmove_tmeta' as unused name to prevent validation troubles.
ATM allocation can't handle stripping and cache pool allocation.
It's not yet even clear what should be actually result.
Until resolved, disable this option (it's been coredumping
inside allocation anyway).
Certain stacks of cached LVs may have unexpected consequences.
So add a warning function called when LV is cached to detect
such caces and WARN user about them - the best we could do ATM.
When we insert layer we also move status flag-bits for certain LV types,
so internal volume_group structure remains consistent.
(Perhaps it's misuse of 'insert_layer' function and we should have
another similar function for this.)
Basically we aim to maintain the same state as after reading fresh
metadata out of volume group.
Currently we when i.e. cache 'raid' LV - this should transfer 'raidLV' flag
to _corigin LV and cache is no longer a raid.
TODO: bits for stacked devices needs more exact rules.
Commit f6473baffc introduced a new
cmd->initialized variable to keep info about which parts of the
cmd_context have been initialized.
A part of this patch was also a change in refresh_filters fn
which checks for cmd->initialized.filters variable and it does
the filter refresh *only* if the filter has already been initialized
before otherwise it's a NOOP (before, the refresh_filters also
initialized filters as a side effect in case it had not been
initialized before which was not quite correct).
However, the commit f6473baffc
did not handle the case in which configuration changes
either via --config argument or when configuration file changed
and its timestamp was higher than the timestamp of the persistent
cache file - the /etc/lvm/cache/.cache.
This patch fixes this issue and it causes the init_filters fn
in lvm_run_command fn to be called with proper value of
"load_persistent_cache" switch even if the configuration changes,
hence causing the persistent cache file to be ignored in this
case.
Relocate generated configure.h and lvm-version.h outside
of compilable .c source tree.
The reason is behind - when compiling in builddir != srcdir
the generated file in lib/misc/configure.h was used for all compiled
source file except ones located in lib/misc dir - those would have used
configure.h file located in this dir - if there have existed one (i.e.
from some other build)
This problem was only visible, when srcdir == buildir was used before
trying to use srcdri != builddir (as configure.h appeared then in
srcdir).
As part of fix that came with cf700151eb,
I forgot to add the check whether the result of stat was successful or
not. This bug caused uninitialized buffer to be used for entries
from .cache file which are no longer valid.
This bug may have caused these uninitialized values to be used further,
for example (see the unreal (2567,590944) representing major:minor
pair):
$ pvs
/dev/abc: stat failed: No such file or directory
Path /dev/abc no longer valid for device(2567,590944)
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/mapper/test lvm2 --- 104.00m 104.00m
/dev/vda2 rhel lvm2 a-- 9.51g 0
Since we may easily get blocked when checking for percentage
of thin-pool - do not flush and just show current values.
This avoids holding VG locked when pool is overfilled.
Try to detect thin-pool which my block lvm2 command from furher
processing (i.e. lvextend).
Check if pool is read-only or out-of-space and in this case thins
will skipped from being scanned (so user may miss some PVs located
on thin volumes).
Fix regression introduced with commit:
2fc126b00d
This commit has moved pv_min_size() test in front
of device_is_usable(). However pv_min_size needs to open device,
so it may have actually get blocked.
So restore the original order and first validate
dm device to be usable for open.
It's worth to note that such check is not 'race-free',
but it usually eliminates 99.99% of problems ;).
Previously all stderr messages issued by spawned lvpoll command were reported
as INFO only. This made all such messages invisible in syslog or lvmpolld log
while running default configuration.
All lvpoll stderr messages are loged with WARN priority now and lvpoll
command exiting with retcode != 0 is logged with ERROR priority in
syslog and lvmpolld log
Originally when vgdisplay encountered an exported VG it issued a
WARNING. Commit d6b1de30 replaced this with an error message
but still exited with success (incorrect). A backtrace was recently
added in commit b193809987.
As vgdisplay already states that the VG is exported in its output,
just drop these messages completely.
Since commit 797c18d543 some internal symbols
have been exported in shared libraries by mistake because 'local: *' got
lost. Fix the shell script not to compare the whole filename with
'Base'
All cache args could be specified when caching LV
(means converting LV to cached).
When --cachemode arg is given during cache-pool conversion,
store it in the metadata.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1255184
Since cache-pool actualy keeps info about caching,
display this info for cache-pool LV as well
(matches info for cache LV when cache-pool is asociated with it).
Change logic and naming of some internal API functions.
cache_set_mode() and cache_set_policy() both take segment.
cache mode is now correctly 'masked-in'.
If the passed segment is 'cache' segment - it will automatically
try to find 'defaults' according to profiles if the are NOT
specified on command line or they are NOT already set for cache-pool.
These defaults are never set for cache-pool.
Add new profilable configurables:
allocation/cache_policy
