Reporter noticed lvm2 incorrectly translated
lvm2 threshold value to water mark in commit:
99237f0908
Fix it by properly translating size to number of
blocks in thin-pool and then calc for free blocks
matching configured lvm2 threshold value.
Reported-by: Ming-Hung Tsai <mingnus@gmail.com>
This option could never have been printed in lvm2 metadata, so it could
be safely removed as it could have been set only as 0.
These configurable setting is supported via metadata profile.
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.
Revert back to already existing behavior which has been slightly
modified by a900d150e4.
At the end however it seem to be equal to change TID right with first
metadata write.
Existing code missed handling for 'unused' thin-pool which would
require to also check empty message list for TID==0.
So with the fix we now again preserve 'active' thin-pool volume
when first thin volume is created - this property was lost and caused
problems in cluster, where the lock was hold, but volume was no longer
active on the node.
Another missing part was the proper support for already increased,
but unfinished TID change.
So going back here with existing logic -
TID is increased with first MDA update.
Code allows start with either same TID or (TID-1).
If there are messages, TID must be lower by 1 for sending,
otherwise messages were already posted.
Existing messaging intarface for thin-pool has a few 'weak' points:
* Message were posted with each 'resume' operation, thus not allowing
activation of thin-pool with the existing state.
* Acceleration skipped suspend step has not worked in cluster,
since clvmd resumes only nodes which are suspended (have proper lock
state).
* Resume may fail and code is not really designed to 'fail' in this
phase (generic rule here is resume DOES NOT fail unless something serious
is wrong and lvm2 tool usually doesn't handle recovery path in this case.)
* Full thin-pool suspend happened, when taken a thin-volume snapshot.
With this patch the new method relocates message passing into suspend
state.
This has a few drawbacks with current API, but overal it performs
better and gives are more posibilities to deal with errors.
Patch introduces a new logic for 'origin-only' suspend of thin-pool and
this also relates to thin-volume when taking snapshot.
When suspend_origin_only operation is invoked on a pool with
queued messages then only those messages are posted to thin-pool and
actual suspend of thin pool and data and metadata volume is skipped.
This makes taking a snapshot of thin-volume lighter operation and
avoids blocking of other unrelated active thin volumes.
Also fail now happens in 'suspend' state where the 'Fail' is more expected
and it is better handled through error paths.
Activation of thin-pool is now not sending any message and leaves upto a tool
to decided later how to finish unfinished double-commit transaction.
Problem which needs some API improvements relates to the lvm2 tree
construction. For the suspend tree we do not add target table line
into the tree, but only a device is inserted into a tree.
Current mechanism to attach messages for thin-pool requires the libdm
to know about thin-pool target, so lvm2 currently takes assumption, node
is really a thin-pool and fills in the table line for this node (which
should be ensured by the PRELOAD phase, but it's a misuse of internal API)
we would possibly need to be able to attach message to 'any' node.
Other thing to notice - current messaging interface in thin-pool
target requires to suspend thin volume origin first and then send
a create message, but this could not have any 'nice' solution on lvm2
side and IMHO we should introduce something like 'create_after_resume'
message.
Patch also changes the moment, where lvm2 transaction id is increased.
Now it happens only after successful finish of kernel transaction id
change. This change was needed to handle properly activation of pool,
which is in the middle of unfinished transaction, and also this corrects
usage of thin-pool by external apps like Docker.
With thin-pool kernel target module 1.13 it's now support usage of
external origin with sizes which are not 'alligned' with chunk size
of thin-pool.
Enable lvm2 support for this and also fix reporting of data_percent
usage for case sizes are not alligned.
Support error_if_no_space feature for thin pools.
Report more info about thinpool status:
(out_of_data (D), metadata_read_only (M), failed (F) also as health
attribute.)
Use segment flags to avoid zeroing of cache, cache pool
snapshot and thin pool segments.
We never want to zero these segment types.
Note:
Snapshot COW and Cache origin are created as stripes
thus are then properly zeroed.
Now we reference segment name via lvseg_name() and
we can drop default implementation and leave its
function pointer to be NULL.
Default give us 'return seg->segtype->name'.
Relocate info from thin pool and thin volume segments
to proper code section for segments.
Add discards and thin count status info.
Info is shown with 'lvdisplay --maps' (like for other segments).
Let's do this the other way round - this makes more logic than commit b995f06.
So let's allow empty values for global/thin_disabled_features where
such an empty value now means "none of this features are disabled".
Avoid use of external origin with size unaligned/incompatible with
thin pool chunk size, since the last chunk is not correctly provisioned
when it is overwritten.
Comparing for available feature missed the code path, when
maj is already bigger.
The bug would be only hit in the case, thin pool target would have
increased major version.
When thin volume is using external origin, current thin target
is not able to supply 'extended' size with empty pages.
lvm2 detects version and disables extension of LV past the external
origin size in this case.
Thin LV could be however still reduced and extended freely bellow
this size.
Make this code a bit more readable for Coverity as otherwise
it marks the "type" variable in the "_thin_pool_add_message" fn
as undefined for certain path (...which is normally unreachable anyway,
but let's clean this up).
Thin kernel target 1.9 still does not support online resize of
thin pool metadata properly - so disable it with expectation
for much higher version - and reenable after fixing kernel.
Some code has been added recently which makes it impossible to compile
when "configure --disable-devmapper" is used. This patch just shuffles
the code around so it's under proper #ifdef DEVMAPPER_SUPPORT.
Code needs to check if the layer origin device is suspended,
It's valid to create thinvolume snapshot of thinvolume which is also
used as an old-style snapshot. In this case we need to check -real
is suspended.
When adding origin_only - add only layer thin volume.
(in case it's also old-snapshot add only -real device)
For example, the old call and reference:
find_config_tree_str(cmd, "devices/dir", DEFAULT_DEV_DIR)
...now becomes:
find_config_tree_str(cmd, devices_dir_CFG)
So we're referring to the named configuration ID instead
of passing the configuration path and the default value
is taken from central config definition in config_settings.h
automatically.
Reorder activation code to look similar for preload tree and
activation tree.
Its also give much better suppport for device stacking,
since now we also support activation of snapshot which might
be then used for other devices.
