53666d6ee3 lvconvert: thin errorwhenfull and recalculation
When converting an existing LV to thin-pool,
user may now pass also '--errorwhenfull' option
like with 'lvcreate'.

Also recalculate chunksize when performace profile is
used with conversion (again matching lvcreate).

Adds missing flagging for uncropped metadata sizes.

87ee401eea md component detection changes
Move extra md component detection into the label scan phase.
It had been in set_pv_devices which was deep within the vg_read
phase, which wasn't a good place (better to detect that earlier.)
Now that pv metadata info is available in the scan phase, the pv
details (size and device_hint) can be used for extra md checking.

Use the device_hint from the pv metadata to trigger a full md
component check if the device_hint begins with /dev/md.

Stop triggering full md component checks based on missing
udev info for a dev.

Changes to tests to reflect that the code is now detecting
md components in some test case that it wasn't before.

8454ce66c5 writecache: let block_size setting override device block sizes
In cases where lvconvert does not detect a fs block size on the
device, it falls back to choosing a writecache block size based
on the device's LBS and PBS (tries to match those.)

If the user specifies a writecache block size on the command
line (--cachesettings block_size=4096|512), lvconvert currently
fails and reports an error if the user-specified value does not
match the value lvconvert would have chosen based on LBS and PBS.

The purpose of allowing a user-specified value on the command line
is to override what lvconvert would otherwise do, so change this
to just print a warning that the user value does not match the
value that would be chosen based on the LBS/PBS, and then take
the user-specified value as the writecache block size.

b4212be2e7 thin: improve 16g support for thin pool metadata
Initial support for thin-pool used slightly smaller max size 15.81GiB
for thin-pool metadata. However the real limit later settled at 15.88GiB
(difference is ~64MiB - 16448 4K blocks).

lvm2 could not simply increase the size as it has been using hard cropping
of the loaded metadata device to avoid warnings printing warning of kernel
when the size was bigger (i.e. due to bigger extent_size).

This patch adds the new lvm.conf configurable setting:
allocation/thin_pool_crop_metadata
which defaults to 0 -> no crop of metadata beyond 15.81GiB.
Only user with these sizes of metadata will be affected.

Without cropping lvm2 now limits metadata allocation size to 15.88GiB.
Any space beyond is currently not used by thin-pool target.
Even if i.e. bigger LV is used for metadata via lvconvert,
or allocated bigger because of to large extent size.

With cropping enabled (=1) lvm2 preserves the old limitation
15.81GiB and should allow to work in the evironement with
older lvm2 tools (i.e. older distribution).

Thin-pool metadata with size bigger then 15.81G is now using CROP_METADATA
flag within lvm2 metadata, so older lvm2 recognizes an
incompatible thin-pool and cannot activate such pool!

Users should use uncropped version as it is not suffering
from various issues between thin_repair results and allocated
metadata LV as thin_repair limit is 15.88GiB
Users should use cropping only when really needed!

Patch also better handles resize of thin-pool metadata and prevents resize
beoyond usable size 15.88GiB. Resize beyond 15.81GiB automatically
switches pool to no-crop version. Even with existing bigger thin-pool
metadata command 'lvextend -l+1 vg/pool_tmeta' does the change.

Patch gives better controls 'coverted' metadata LV and
reports less confusing message during conversion.

Patch set also moves the code for updating min/max into pool_manip.c
for better sharing with cache_pool code.

a690d16d29 writecache: use cleaner message instead of table reload
When detaching writecache, make the first stage send a message
to dm-writecache to set the cleaner option.  This is instead of
reloading the dm table with the cleaner option set.  Reloading
the table causes udev to process/probe the dm dev, which gets
stalled because of the writeback activity, and the stalled udev
in turn stalls the lvconvert command when it tries to sync with
udev events.

When getting writecache status we do not need to get
open_count or read_head info, which can cause extra steps.

The args for pvcreate/pvremove (and vgcreate/vgextend
when applicable) were not efficiently opened, scanned,
and filtered.  This change reorganizes the opening
and filtering in the following steps:

- label scan and filter all devs
  . open ro
  . standard label scan at the start of command

- label scan and filter dev args
  . open ro
  . uses full md component check
  . typically the first scan and filter of pvcreate devs

- close and reopen dev args
  . open rw and excl

- repeat label scan and filter dev args
  . using reopened rw excl fd

- wipe and write new headers
  . using reopened rw excl fd

f3b723cd8d pvscan: rework to improve PVs without metadata
Restructure the pvscan code, and add new temporary files
that list pvids in a VG, used for processing PVs that
have no metadata.

The new temp files, in /run/lvm/pvs_lookup/<vgname>, allow a
proper pvscan --cache to be done on PVs that have no metadata.
pvscan --cache <dev> is only supposed to read <dev>, but when
<dev> has no metadata, this had not been possible.  The
command had to fall back to scanning all devices to read all
VG metadata to get the list of all PVIDs needed to check for
a complete VG.  Now, the temp file can be used in place of
reading metadata from all PVs on the system.

Reuse same bit for dmeventd.

Since dmeventd is using 300KiB stack per thread,
we will ignore any user settings for allocation/reserved_stack
until some better solution is find.
This avoids crashing of dmevend when user changes this value
and because in most cases lvm2 should work ok with 64K stack
size, this change should not cause any problems.

c32d7fed4f writecache: use two step detach
When detaching a writecache, use the cleaner setting
by default to writeback data prior to suspending the
lv to detach the writecache.  This avoids potentially
blocking for a long period with the device suspended.

Detaching a writecache first sets the cleaner option, waits
for a short period of time (less than a second), and checks
if the writecache has quickly become clean.  If so, the
writecache is detached immediately.  This optimizes the case
where little writeback is needed.

If the writecache does not quickly become clean, then the
detach command leaves the writecache attached with the
cleaner option set.  This leaves the LV in the same state
as if the user had set the cleaner option directly with
lvchange --cachesettings cleaner=1 LV.

After leaving the LV with the cleaner option set, the
detach command will wait and watch the writeback progress,
and will finally detach the writecache when the writeback
is finished.  The detach command does not need to wait
during the writeback phase, and can be canceled, in which
case the LV will remain with the writecache attached and
the cleaner option set.  When the user runs the detach
command again it will complete the detach.

To detach a writecache directly, without using the cleaner
step (which has been the approach previously), add the
option --cachesettings cleaner=0 to the detach command.

168e2ffbcd lvm: add readline alternative editline
LVM2 is distributed under GPLv2 only. The readline library changed its
license long ago to GPLv3. Given that those licenses are incompatible
and you follow the FSF in their interpretation that dynamically linking
creates a derivative work, distributing LVM2 linked against a current
readline version might be legally problematic.

Add support for the BSD licensed editline library as an alternative for
readline.

1570e76233 bcache: use indirection table for fd
Add a "device index" (di) for each device, and use this
in the bcache api to the rest of lvm.  This replaces the
file descriptor (fd) in the api.  The rest of lvm uses
new functions bcache_set_fd(), bcache_clear_fd(), and
bcache_change_fd() to control which fd bcache uses for
io to a particular device.

. lvm opens a dev and gets and fd.
  fd = open(dev);

. lvm passes fd to the bcache layer and gets a di
  to use in the bcache api for the dev.
  di = bcache_set_fd(fd);

. lvm uses bcache functions, passing di for the dev.
  bcache_write_bytes(di, ...), etc.

. bcache translates di to fd to do io.

. lvm closes the device and clears the di/fd bcache state.
  close(fd);
  bcache_clear_fd(di);

In the bcache layer, a di-to-fd translation table
(int *_fd_table) is added.  When bcache needs to
perform io on a di, it uses _fd_table[di].

In the following commit, lvm will make use of the new
bcache_change_fd() function to change the fd that
bcache uses for the dev, without dropping cached blocks.

For writecache drop unneded zero_sectors.

for confirmation of conversion - and then again wipe_lv() prompts
for removing i.e. filesystem signature - we should unify this
prompting into 1 message  - althought the 'filesystem' discovery
needs active volume - while the 1st. conversion prompt can
work without active converted volume.

2aed2a41f7 lvcreate: new cache or writecache lv with single command
To create a new cache or writecache LV with a single command:

lvcreate --type cache|writecache
    -n Name -L Size --cachedevice PVfast VG [PVslow ...]

- A new main linear|striped LV is created as usual, using the
  specified -n Name and -L Size, and using the optionally
  specified PVslow devices.
- Then, a new cachevol LV is created internally, using PVfast
  specified by the cachedevice option.
- Then, the cachevol is attached to the main LV, converting the
  main LV to type cache|writecache.

Include --cachesize Size to specify the size of cache|writecache
to create from the specified --cachedevice PVs, otherwise the
entire cachedevice PV is used.  The --cachedevice option can be
repeated to create the cache from multiple devices, or the
cachedevice option can contain a tag name specifying a set of PVs
to allocate the cache from.

To create a new cache or writecache LV with a single command
using an existing cachevol LV:

lvcreate --type cache|writecache
    -n Name -L Size --cachevol LVfast VG [PVslow ...]

- A new main linear|striped LV is created as usual, using the
  specified -n Name and -L Size, and using the optionally
  specified PVslow devices.
- Then, the cachevol LVfast is attached to the main LV, converting
  the main LV to type cache|writecache.

In cases where more advanced types (for the main LV or cachevol LV)
are needed, they should be created independently and then combined
with lvconvert.

Example
-------

user creates a new VG with one slow device and one fast device:

$ vgcreate vg /dev/slow1 /dev/fast1

user creates a new 8G main LV on /dev/slow1 that uses all of
/dev/fast1 as a writecache:

$ lvcreate --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/fast1
    -n main -L 8G vg /dev/slow1

Example
-------

user creates a new VG with two slow devs and two fast devs:

$ vgcreate vg /dev/slow1 /dev/slow2 /dev/fast1 /dev/fast2

user creates a new 8G main LV on /dev/slow1 and /dev/slow2
that uses all of /dev/fast1 and /dev/fast2 as a writecache:

$ lvcreate --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/fast1 --cachedevice /dev/fast2
    -n main -L 8G vg /dev/slow1 /dev/slow2

Example
-------

A user has several slow devices and several fast devices in their VG,
the slow devs have tag @slow, the fast devs have tag @fast.

user creates a new 8G main LV on the slow devs with a
2G writecache on the fast devs:

$ lvcreate --type writecache -n main -L 8G
    --cachedevice @fast --cachesize 2G vg @slow

21b37964eb lvconvert: single step cachevol creation and attachment
To add a cache or writecache to a main LV with a single command:

lvconvert --type cache|writecache --cachedevice /dev/ssd vg/main

A cachevol LV will be allocated from the specified cache device,
then attached to the main LV.  Include --cachesize to specify the
size of cachevol to create, otherwise the entire cachedevice is
used.  The cachedevice option can be repeated to create a cachevol
from multiple devices.

Example
-------

A user has an existing main LV that they want to speed up
using a new ssd.

user adds the new ssd to the VG:

$ vgextend vg /dev/ssd

user attaches the new ssd their main LV:

$ lvconvert --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/ssd vg/main

Example
-------

A user has two existing main LVs that they want to speed up
with a new ssd.

user adds the new 16G ssd to the VG:

$ vgextend vg /dev/ssd

user attaches some of the new ssd to the first main LV,
using half of the space:

$ lvconvert --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/ssd
    --cachesize 8G vg/main1

user attaches some of the new ssd to the second main LV,
using the other half of the space:

$ lvconvert --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/ssd
    --cachesize 8G vg/main2

Example
-------

A user has an existing main LV that they want to speed up using
two new ssds.

user adds the new two ssds the VG:

$ vgextend vg /dev/ssd1
$ vgextend vg /dev/ssd2

user attaches both ssds their main LV:

$ lvconvert --type writecache
    --cachedevice /dev/ssd1 --cachedevice /dev/ssd2 vg/main

ae029fcced integrity: skip calling add when removing images
When lvconvert is used to remove raid images, we can
skip calling lv_add_integrity_to_raid(), which finds

d9e8895a96 Allow dm-integrity to be used for raid images
dm-integrity stores checksums of the data written to an
LV, and returns an error if data read from the LV does
not match the previously saved checksum.  When used on
raid images, dm-raid will correct the error by reading
the block from another image, and the device user sees
no error.  The integrity metadata (checksums) are stored
on an internal LV allocated by lvm for each linear image.
The internal LV is allocated on the same PV as the image.

Create a raid LV with an integrity layer over each
raid image (for raid levels 1,4,5,6,10):

lvcreate --type raidN --raidintegrity y [options]

Add an integrity layer to images of an existing raid LV:

lvconvert --raidintegrity y LV

Remove the integrity layer from images of a raid LV:

lvconvert --raidintegrity n LV

Settings

Use --raidintegritymode journal|bitmap (journal is default)
to configure the method used by dm-integrity to ensure
crash consistency.

Initialization

When integrity is added to an LV, the kernel needs to
initialize the integrity metadata/checksums for all blocks
in the LV.  The data corruption checking performed by
dm-integrity will only operate on areas of the LV that
are already initialized.  The progress of integrity
initialization is reported by the "syncpercent" LV
reporting field (and under the Cpy%Sync lvs column.)

Example: create a raid1 LV with integrity:

$ lvcreate --type raid1 -m1 --raidintegrity y -n rr -L1G foo
  Creating integrity metadata LV rr_rimage_0_imeta with size 12.00 MiB.
  Logical volume "rr_rimage_0_imeta" created.
  Creating integrity metadata LV rr_rimage_1_imeta with size 12.00 MiB.
  Logical volume "rr_rimage_1_imeta" created.
  Logical volume "rr" created.
$ lvs -a foo
  LV                  VG  Attr       LSize  Origin              Cpy%Sync
  rr                  foo rwi-a-r---  1.00g                     4.93
  [rr_rimage_0]       foo gwi-aor---  1.00g [rr_rimage_0_iorig] 41.02
  [rr_rimage_0_imeta] foo ewi-ao---- 12.00m
  [rr_rimage_0_iorig] foo -wi-ao----  1.00g
  [rr_rimage_1]       foo gwi-aor---  1.00g [rr_rimage_1_iorig] 39.45
  [rr_rimage_1_imeta] foo ewi-ao---- 12.00m
  [rr_rimage_1_iorig] foo -wi-ao----  1.00g
  [rr_rmeta_0]        foo ewi-aor---  4.00m

lvm2 supports thin-pool to be later used by other tools doing

other tools and lvm2 keeps value 0 - so the transationId
