vg_validate call is an adept to optimisation, it is very
ineeficient and slow.
Anyway, we should call it only before writing data to disk.
The call in lvmcache was just temporary validation,
we realy do not need to revalidate cached metadata
every time.
(Actually, I added that there just to prove that cache works
properly and forgot to remove it.)
Patch removes it from lvmcache completely, this can hit only
internal bug in export function (and this bug must
be detected in any vg_write call anyway before).
The _read_vg uses already hash for PVs to optimise
reading of large VGs and avoiding repeated PV list traversing.
Use the same aproach to speed up parsing VG with many LVs.
If dmeventd runs with -d flag, it doesn't fork into backgroud.
The command kill(getppid(), SIGTERM) attempts to kill the parent dmeventd
process, however, if there is no parent, it kills whatever process spawned
dmeventd. In case of debugging with gdb, the parent is gdb, thus
kill(getppid(), SIGTERM) kills the debugger.

clvmd does not propagate DMEVENTD_MONITOR_IGNORE.
Update get_activation_monitoring_mode() to check if the VG that the
LV is being activated in is clustered. If so, skip it.
Any get_activation_monitoring_mode() error will cause the associated LV
(or VG) to be skipped during activation. Both vgchange_single() and
lvchange_single(), which call get_activation_monitoring_mode(), are
called by their respective process_each_..() method.

Improve dependency tracking for dmeventd and liblvm2cmd sources.
This check-in enables the 'mirrored' log type. It can be specified
by using the '--mirrorlog' option as follows:
#> lvcreate -m1 --mirrorlog mirrored -L 5G -n lv vg
I've also included a couple updates to the testsuite. These updates
include tests for the new log type, and some fixes to some of the
*lvconvert* tests.
clvmd's do_lock_lv() already properly controls dmeventd monitoring based
on LCK_DMEVENTD_MONITOR_MODE in lock_flags -- though one small fix was
needed for this to work: _lock_for_cluster() must treat
dmeventd_monitor_mode()'s return as a tri-state value.
Also cleanup do_lock_lv() to:
- explicitly init_dmeventd_monitor() based on LCK_DMEVENTD_MONITOR_MODE
- no longer reset init_dmeventd_monitor() to default at the end of
do_lock_lv() -- it is unnecessary
This is the next preparatory step towards better --alloc anywhere
support and is not intended to break anything that currently works so
please report any problems - segfaults, bogus data in the new debug
messages, or if the code now chooses bizarre allocation layouts.
. Add "monitoring" option to "activation" section of lvm.conf
. Have clvmd consult the lvm.conf "activation/monitoring" too.

Prevent lvresize from being able to resize internal LVs: mirror legs
(*_mimage_*), mirror log (*_mlog), snapshot placeholder LVs (snapshot*)
and others. Resizing these would leads to unexpected metadata and
sometimes crashes (in case of growing snapshot*).
This option should be configurable, but for now
do not set it at all.
(lvm2app is used in udisks probers and there
cac cause several nasty races when trying to update
lvmcache during rescan.)
If user try to vgcreate or vgextend non-existent VG,
these messages appears:
# vgcreate xxx /dev/xxx
Internal error: Volume Group xxx was not unlocked
Device /dev/xxx not found (or ignored by filtering).
Unable to add physical volume '/dev/xxx' to volume group 'xxx'.
Internal error: Attempt to unlock unlocked VG xxx.
(the same with existing VG and non-existing PV & vgextend)
# vgextend vg_test /dev/xxx
...
It is caused because code tries to "refresh" cache if
md filter is switched on using cache destroy.
But we can change filters and rescan even without this
machinery now, just use refresh_filters
(and reset md filter afterwards).
(Patch also discovers cache alias bug in vgsplit test,
fix it by using better filter line.)
This patch adds a new implementation of locking function instead
of mlockall() that may lock way too much memory (>100MB).
New function instead uses mlock() system call and selectively locks
memory areas from /proc/self/maps trying to avoid locking areas
unused during lock-ed state.
Patch also adds struct cmd_context to all memlock() calls to have
access to configuration.
For backward compatibility functionality of mlockall()
is preserved with "activation/use_mlockall" flag.
As a simple check, locking and unlocking counts the amount of memory
and compares whether values are matching.
For static builds dependency for SELinux libs is not handled by 'ar'.

lvm2 devices have always UUID set even if imported from lvm1 metadata.
Patch removes name argument from dev_manager_info call and converts
all activation related calls to use query by UUID.
Also it simplifies mknode call (which is the only user on mknodes parameter).
Add a merging snapshot to the deptree, using the "error" target, rather
than avoid adding it entirely. This allows proper cleanup of the -cow
device without having to rename the -cow to use the origin's name as a
prefix.
Move the preloading of the origin LV, after a merge, from
lv_remove_single() to vg_remove_snapshot(). Having vg_remove_snapshot()
preload the origin allows the -cow device to be released so that it can
be removed via deactivate_lv(). lv_remove_single()'s deactivate_lv()
reliably removes the -cow device because the associated snapshot LV,
that is to be removed when a snapshot-merge completes, is always added
to the deptree (and kernel -- via "error" target).
Now when the snapshot LV is removed both the -cow and -real devices
get removed using uuid rather than device name. This paves the way
for us to switch over to info-by-uuid queries.

There's a tiny period of time when the _mimage device is visible during
downconversion from mirror to linear. Since it is visible, we need to
create the symlinks, otherwise warning messages will be issued about udev
not creating those symlinks. We have to rely on udev flags completely.
When activating a merging origin it is valid, and expected, to not have
a node in the deptree for both the origin and its merging snapshot. The
_cached_info() caller is only concerned with whether a device is open.
If there isn't a node in the tree the associated device is definitely
not open.
depending on if the mirror has a 'core' or 'disk' log. When there
is a disk log, the new leg is added by stacking a new mirror on
top of the old (one leg is the old mirror and the other leg is the newly
added device). When the log is a 'core' log, the new leg is simply added
to the existing mirror and all the devices are re-synced.
The logic that handles collapsing the stacked 'disk' log mirror was
having the effect of causing 'core' logged mirrors to begin resync'ing
for a second time. I have used the 'CONVERTING' flag to indicate that
a mirror is converting by way of stacking. This is no longer set for
up-converting core logs. The final 'collapse' logic can safely be skipped
for 'core' log mirrors - getting rid of the second resync.

where we should not expose internal VG names/uuids (the ones with "#" prefix )through the
interface. Otherwise, we could end up with library users opening internal VGs which will
initiate locking mechanism that won't be cleaned up properly.
"#orphans_{lvm1, lvm2, pool}" names are treated in a special way, they are truncated first
to "orphans" and this is used as a part of the lock name then (e.g. while calling lvm_vg_open()).
When library user calls lvm_vg_close(), the original name "orphans_{lvm1, lvm2, pool}"
is used directly and therefore no unlock occurs.
We should exclude internal VG names and uuids in the lists provided by lvmcache:
lvmcache_get_vgids() and lvmcache_get_vgnames().

When activation of pvmove mirror fails on cluster, some nodes
still possibly succeeded in activation.
- Explicitly deactivate that mirror to be sure
- properly pair suspend/resume calls to not cause memory lock problems in clvmd
Code cannot simply call _finish_pvmove on cluster in this situation, because
changed LVs are suspended twice (causing memory inbalance) and also temporary
mirror is activated when it is not expected (and we know that it failed already).
Patch prepares special function which remove temporary mirror references from
metadata and then resumes changed LVs.
In dev_manager_info 0 means error and 1 info is returned,
not that device exists (that value is part of info struct).
Fix query by uuid only (no name) which returns 0 when device
does not exist.
Support "wait before testing" using '+' in pvmove and lvconvert
interval. Doing so overrides the new default of sleeping after checking
the LV's progress.
Sleeping before checking progress can lead to extraneous polldaemons
being left running. These polldaemons would have otherwise exited had
they checked before sleeping. Checking progress before sleeping helps
workaround the subtly unreliable nature of "finished" state checking
in _percent_run.
Update test/t-mirror-names.sh to use '+' when providing its lvconvert
interval.
more descriptive message if locking fails instead of
"Locking type -1 initialisation failed."
Use read-only locking instead of misleading ignorelocking option

For mirror repair (and similar tasks) it can happen that full
device rescan is issued from clvmd.
Because code can be in the middle of repair (calling suspend)
clvmd should never try to scan suspended devices
(otherwise it causes deadlock).
Also code must not change ignore_suspended_device flag when
doing refresh_filters (called from lvmcache scan code).
bitmap tracking was switched from the e2fsprogs implementation to
the device-mapper implementation (dm_bitset_t). The latter has a
leading uin32_t field designed to hold the number of bits that are
being tracked. The code was not properly handling this change in
all places. Specifically, when getting the bitmap to/from disk.
Endian adjustments will likely need to be made on the accounting
field as well, since bitmaps are passed between machines on
start-up.

The logic was that lvconvert repair volumes, marking
PV as MISSING and following vgreduce --removemissing
removes these missing devices.
Previously dmeventd mirror DSO removed all LV and PV
from VG by simply relying on
vgreduce --removemissing --force.
Now, there are two subsequent calls:
lvconvert --repair --use-policies
vgreduce --removemissing
So the VG is locked twice, opening space for all races
between other running lvm processes. If the PV reappears
with old metadata on it (so the winner performs autorepair,
if locking VG for update) the situation is even worse.
Patch simply adds removemissing PV functionality into
lvconcert BUT ONLY if running with --repair and --use-policies
and removing only these empty missing PVs which are
involved in repair.
(This combination is expected to run only from dmeventd.)
Version >= 1.8.0 of the DM snapshot target appends metadata sectors used
to a snapshot's status. This patch allows LVM2 to accurately determine
if the snapshot store is empty. Knowing when a snapshot store is empty
is important in the context of snapshot-merge (means merge is complete).
Also update LVM2 to be aware of the possibility for "Merge failed" in
the snapshot-merge target's status.

the background polldaemon is allowed to start. It can be used
standalone or in conjunction with --refresh or --available y.
Control over when the background polldaemon starts will be particularly
important for snapshot-merge of a root filesystem.
Dracut will be updated to activate all LVs with: --poll n
The lvm2-monitor initscript will start polling with: --poll y
NOTE: Because we currently have no way of knowing if a background
polldaemon is active for a given LV the following limitations exist and
have been deemed acceptable:
1) it is not possible to stop an active polldaemon; so the lvm2-monitor
initscript doesn't stop running polldaemon(s)
2) redundant polldaemon instances will be started for all specified LVs
if vgchange or lvchange are repeatedly used with '--poll y'

This patch tries to correctly track changes in lvmcache related to commit/revert.
For vg_commit: if there is cached precommitted metadata, after successfull commit
these metadata must be tracked as committed.
For vg_revert: remote nodes must drop precommitted metadata and its flag in lvmcache.
(N.B. Patch do not touch LV locks here in any way.)
All this machinery is needed to properly solve remote node cache invalidaton which
cause several problems recently observed.
Lock mode is int masked by LCK_TYPE_MASK, always.
Patch also remove uneccessary masking lock flag on sender side,
if masking is needed, it is don on client side already.
- Add drop_precommitted flag to force drop precommitted metadata
- add lvmcache_commit_metadata() which upgrades precommitted metadata in cache
No functional change in this patch - just preparation for following change.
And decode flags in humar readable form in client.
And clean some trailing whitespaces.
No functional change in this patch (only debugging messages changed).
The use_precommitted flag indicates, that we want to use precommitted metadata
(used in suspend call to preload table with precommitted data).
But if there are no such data, committed metadata are read but the cache
still contains that precommitted flag.
(The problem is that later possible drop_metadata call will not invalidate
device in cache.)
The wrong precommitted state is stored in on remote nodes during normal
suspend/resume cycle _without_ vg_write/commit.
Use the PRECOMMITTED status flag here instead (which is always set if using
precommited metadata here).
If renaming snapshot with virtual origin, the origin is renamed too.
But the code must resume LVs in reverse order to properly
pair memlock (in cluster locking).
(The resume of snapshot resumes origin too and later resume
is ignored otherwise.)
When PV device reappears with old metadata, it is
always updated to new version byt atutomatic metadata
repair.
Remove missing flag if device is empty.
If device contains allocated extents, issue warning that
user must remove volumes and re-add this PV before
manipulating with this volume.
This partially solves bug 547842 when one PV (log) is failed,
dmeventd removes that device and later this device reappears and
is wrongly added into VG marked missing.
The memlock_inc() fix is wrong, memlock count is not
propagated to long living process (clvmd) and just
it underflow there.
Also suspend is needed to pre-load precommited metadata
on other nodes (remapping to error taget in this case).
With explicit suspend we generate lock request and code
can update memlock count.
(Infinitely "locked" memory caused that fs_unlock() was not
called properly and on cluster nodes remains
old links in /dev/mapper for not active devices.)
(N.B. failing of suspend call here is not handled as fatal
error - the LV is going to be removed later anyway.)
The new recovery code first tries to repair LV and then removes failed PV
from VG. It means that during operation there can be VG with PV missing,
and vg_read code handles it like not consistent VG.
We already allows returning "inconsistent" commited metadata,
for mirror repair we need this for precommited too.
(The suspend call prepares precommited metadata to inactive table on
other cluster nodes.)
"Inconsistent" here means - correct metadata, just with some metadata areas
not found (obviously on missing or failed PVs).
The LV locks make sense only for clustered LVs.
Properly check cluster flag and never issue cluster lock here.
There are several places in code, where it is already checked, this
patch add this check to all needed calls.
In previous code the lock behaviour was inconsistent,
for example, the pre/post callback can take lock even for local volume,
but deactivate call do not released this lock and it remains held forever.
The local LV lock request now just let run the underlying activation code
on local node, the same process like in local locking.
(Again, this is important for new mirror repair calls, here for local
mirrors but with cluster locking enabled.)
This is unnoticed regression from commit 31672ff60e
The pre/post callback need to convert lock always, local node
is going to modify metadata in this case, it it fails conversion,
the call is ignored.
Also it fixes bug when the lock is not yet held, we cannot set LKF_CONVERT
in this case, it will fail because this lock do not exist.
Note that the automatic conversion is still disabled in activate
call, so the original fix (reactivation of exlusive LV) should
be still in place.
(Code already not fail if unlocking not locked resource.)
This is needed in pre/post lock_lv call, where we can
request the same lock on local node becuase of suspend call.
- do_command and lock_vg expect flags (no change here)
Bug fixes:
- lock_vg should check for NONBLOCK on lock_cmd, flags have this bit masked-out
- do_pre/post_command expect do not mask flag at all, this causes that
the code inside is never run! (see following patches, these functions
expect plain command without flags)
If there is problem deactivate LV and
_init_mirror_log is called with remove_on_failure = 1,
remove the newly created log LV from metadata.
(This can happen if there is active device with the same name
but different UUID.)
The main reason for this "workaround" patch is to
- do not keep _mlog volume in metadata, so user can repeat the action
- print better error message describing the real problem
# lvcreate -m 2 -n lv1 -l 1 --nosync vg_bar

pvmove suspends all moved LVs + pvmoveX mirrored LV itself.
This suspends even underlying pvmoveX and following explicit
suspend call is just noop.
But in resume the pvmoveX volume is no longer underlying
device for moved LVs, so it performs full resume with memlock
decrease.
Code must call memlock_inc() if suspend is requested, volume
is already suspended and error is not requested.
These are no longer used by anyone. The dm_list defines are all in
libdevmapper.h and libdm/datastruct/list.c contains any function definitions.
There is some code in "old-tests" that still use this but this code is not
being maintained.
Thanks to Zdenek for spotting this.
The physical_volume, volume_group, logical_volume and lv_segment
structures' 'status' member is now uint64_t.
The alignment of these structures was also audited to remove holes. The
movement of some members in 'volume_group' and 'lv_segment' eliminates
holes. The 'physical_volume' structure still has one 4-byte hole after
'pe_size'; the other structures no longer have any holes. Each
structures' size has not changed.
If the vg_read() returned error, no lock was taken,
so always call vg_release().
Otherwise this can happen because of missing FAILED_*:
# vgchange -a y x --ignorelockingfailure
Volume group "x" not found
Internal error: Attempt to unlock unlocked VG x
The sysfs filter initialise hash of available devices using
scan of /sys/block. We need to refresh even this hash
when performing full scan otherwise the newly appeared
device could be rejected, because there is no entry
in sysfs filter.
This easily could happen when attaching new device
to cluster node. (Only force refresh of context
in clvmd -R works here now).
Unfortunately consequences of this are much worse,
missing device part on that node is replaced with missing segment
(even when no partial arg is selected) and this directly
lead to data corruption.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=538515
Simply fix it by refreshing device filters in lvmcache
before performing the full device scan.

With currect code you get

It is caused by _unlock_memory calls here

Unfortunately it is also (wrongly) called in immediate unlock

(LCK_UNLOCK is misinterpreted as LCK_LV_RESUME).
Avoid this by comparing original flags and provide memlock
code type of operation (suspend/resume).
All hidden (not visible) volumes should be activated through
other visible volumes.
(There are already exceptions like snapshot, mirror log and image,
which should be cleaned one day...)
This solves problems for future types of hidden volumes,
which can have special meaning and must not be activated implicitly
(e.g. key store volume).

Per discussion on lvm-devel mailing list and part of debian patch set,
don't set defaults for owner and group, since nobody seems to use them, and
still allow override.
Going forward, we would like to allow users to specify the total
number of metadatacopies in a VG rather than on a per-PV basis. In
order to facilitate that, introduce --pvmetadatacopes to replace
--metadatacopies everywhere. We still allow --metadatacopies for
pv commands, but require --pvmetadatacopies for vg commands.
Eventually we will introduce --vgmetadatacopies. Once we do that,
we should either deprecate --metadatacopies or make it a synonym based
on the command (pvmetadatacopies for pv commands, and vgmetadatacopies
for vg commands). The latter option would likely just require a simple
'strncpy' check against cmd->command->name to qualify the merge_synonym
call.
Update nightly tests to cover the pvmetadatacopies synonym.
Note that this patch is the result of an eariler review comment for
the implicit pvcreate patches. Should apply cleanly on top of the
implicit pvcreate patches (I applied after patch 10/10 in that series).
NOTE: This patch will require --pvmetadatacopies for vgconvert as
--metadatacopies is no longer accepted.

flag set then it will return errno=EBUSY.
This fixes a pretty bad bug in which an LV could be activated exclusively on
one node and lvchange -ay on another would convert it to shared!
It might break some things in other areas, but I doubt it.
lv_deactivate now returns always success, because tree deactivation
functions (see dm_tree_deactivate_children) always returns success.
Because code should return failure in lv_deactivate at least,
fix it by checking for device existence after real deactivation call.

which affects snapshots and mirrors.)
Add configure --enable-units-compat to set si_unit_consistency off by default.
Use standard output units for 'PE Size' and 'Stripe size' in pv/lvdisplay.
Clean up VG_RESIZEABLE flag by creating vg_is_resizeable().
Update comment - we no longer have ALLOW_RESIZEABLE.
Also use vg_is_exported() in one place missed by earlier patch.
Should be no functional change.
Remove the checks for vg_read_error() in most of the tools callback
functions and instead make the check in _process_one_vg() more general.
In all but vgcfgbackup, we do not want to proceed if we get any error
from vg_read(). In vgcfgbackup's case, we may proceed if the backup
is to proceed with inconsistent VGs. This is a special case though,
and we mark it with the READ_ALLOW_INCONSISTENT flag passed to
process_each_vg (and subsequently to _process_one_vg).
NOTE: More cleanup is needed in the vg_read_error() path cases.
This patch is a start.
- add DM_UDEV_RULES_VSN to provide a variable to be checked for in the other
rules (e.g. to check that DM rules are actually installed, we can alternate
functionality in the other rules based on this information, also we have
versioning support for the rules)
- set proper sbin path for dmsetup and blkid, /sbin first, then /usr/sbin.
This is necessary for anaconda to work properly.
- add 'last_rule' for cryptsetup's temporary devices (symlinks in /dev/mapper
only)
Now that we've refactored the internal library functions that do the
vg_remove, we can handle the deferred commit of a lvm_vg_remove() inside
lvm_vg_write(). This makes the VG create/remove API more consistent in
terms of disk commits - they now both require an lvm_vg_write() to commit
the create or remove to disk.
