Add new log_context=shell and with log_object_type=cmd and
log_object_name=<command_name> for command log report to collect
overall return code from last command (this is reported under
log_type=status).
Currently, the output is separated in 3 parts and each part can go into
a separate and user-defined file descriptor:
- common output (stdout by default, customizable by LVM_OUT_FD environment variable)
- error output (stderr by default, customizable by LVM_ERR_FD environment variable)
- report output (stdout by default, customizable by LVM_REPORT_FD environment variable)
For example, each type of output goes to different output file:
[0] fedora/~ # export LVM_REPORT_FD=3
[0] fedora/~ # lvs fedora vg/abc 1>out 2>err 3>report
[0] fedora/~ # cat out
[0] fedora/~ # cat err
Volume group "vg" not found

'lvchange --resync LV' or 'lvchange --syncaction repair LV' request the
RAID layout specific parity blocks in raid4/5/6 to be recreated or the
mirrored blocks to be copied again from the master leg/copy for raid1/10,
thus not allowing a rebuild of a particular PV.
Introduce repeatable option '--[raid]rebuild PV' to allow to request
rebuilds of specific PVs in a RaidLV which are known to contain corrupt
data (e.g. rebuild a raid1 master leg).
Add test lvchange-rebuild-raid.sh to test/shell doing rebuild
variations on raid1/10 and 5; add aux function check_status_chars
to support the new test.
- Resolves rhbz1064592
introduced with commit 8f62b7bfe5 rely on complete
defintions of the relations between the LVs of a VG.
Hence only run these checks when the complete_vg flag
is set on calls to check_lv_segments().
lvconvert failed in test lvconvert-thin-raid.sh when
calling check_lv_segments() from _read_segments() without
providing a complete definition.
General RAID and RAID segment type specific checks are added
to merge.c. New static _check_raid_seg() is called on each segment
of a RaidLV (which have just one) from check_lv_segments().
New checks caught some unititialized segment members
which are addressed here as well:
- initialize seg->region_size to 0 in lvcreate.c for raid0/raid0_meta
- initialize list seg->origin_list in lv_manip.c
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).
If the VG holding the global lock is removed, we can indicate
that as the reason for not being able to acquire the global
lock in subsequent error messages, and can suggest enabling
the global lock in another VG. (This helpful error message
will go away if the global lock is enabled in another VG,
or if lvmlockd is restarted.)
In some cases, the command will update VG metadata
in lvmetad without writing it. In these cases there
is no vg->vg_committed and it should use 'vg' directly.
This happens when the command finds that the lvmetad
VG has been invalidated, rereads the metadata from disk,
then updates lvmetad with that metadata. This happens
often with lvmlockd or foreign VGs, and can happen without
lvmlockd if a previous command fails after invalidating
the VG in lvmetad.
Commit 3928c96a37 introduced
new defaults for raid number of stripes, which may cause
backwards compatibility issues with customer scripts.
Adding configurable option 'raid_stripe_all_devices' defaulting
to '0' (i.e. off = new behaviour) to select the old behaviour
of using all PVs in the VG or those provided on the command line.
In case any scripts rely on the old behaviour, just set
'raid_strip_all_devices = 1'.
- resolves rhbz1354650
This fixes a regression from commit a7c45ddc5, which moved
the lvmetad VG update from vg_commit() to unlock_vg().
The lvmetad VG update needs to send the version of metadata
that was committed rather than sending the state of struct 'vg'.
The 'vg' may have been partially modified since vg_commit(),
and contain non-committed metadata that shouldn't be sent
to lvmetad.
Any failing stripes in raid0/raid0_meta type LVs cause data loss,
thus replacement via 'lvconvert --replace...' does not make sense.
Patch prohibits replacement on raid0/raid0_meta LVs.
- resolves rhbz1356734
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.
A livelock occurs on extension in lv_manip when adjusting the region size,
which doesn't apply to any raid0/raid0_meta LVs (these don't have a bitmap).
Fix by prohibiting the region size adjustment on any such LVs.

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.
Apply the same idea as vg_update.
Before doing the VG remove on disk, invalidate
the VG in lvmetad. After the VG is removed,
remove the VG in lvmetad. If the command fails
after removing the VG on disk, but before removing
the VG metadata from lvmetad, then a subsequent
command will see the INVALID flag and not use the
stale metadata from lvmetad.
Previously, a command sent lvmetad new VG metadata in vg_commit().
In vg_commit(), devices are suspended, so any memory allocation
done by the command while sending to lvmetad, or by lvmetad while
updating its cache could deadlock if memory reclaim was triggered.
Now lvmetad is updated in unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed.
The new method for updating VG metadata in lvmetad is in two phases:
1. In vg_write(), before devices are suspended, the command sends
lvmetad a short message ("set_vg_info") telling it what the new
VG seqno will be. lvmetad sees that the seqno is newer than
the seqno of its cached VG, so it sets the INVALID flag for the
cached VG. If sending the message to lvmetad fails, the command
fails before the metadata is committed and the change is not made.
If sending the message succeeds, vg_commit() is called.
2. In unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed, the command sends
lvmetad the standard vg_update message with the new metadata.
lvmetad sees that the seqno in the new metadata matches the
seqno it saved from set_vg_info, and knows it has the latest
copy, so it clears the INVALID flag for the cached VG.
If a command fails between 1 and 2 (after committing the VG on disk,
but before sending lvmetad the new metadata), the cached VG retains
the INVALID flag in lvmetad. A subsequent command will read the
cached VG from lvmetad, see the INVALID flag, ignore the cached
copy, read the VG from disk instead, update the lvmetad copy
with the latest copy from disk, (this clears the INVALID flag
in lvmetad), and use the correct VG metadata for the command.
(This INVALID mechanism already existed for use by lvmlockd.)
Simplify code around _do_get_report_selection - remove "expected_idxs[]"
argument which is superfluous and add "allow_single" switch instead to
allow for recognition of "--configreport <report_name> -S" as well as

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.
lv_name arg is only used without known LV for resolving '*lv'.
Once we know *lv, never use lv_name ever again.
So setting it when passing *lv has not needed.
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.
Use common API design and pass just LV pointer to lv_manip.c functions.
Read cmd struct via lv->vg->cmd when needed.
Also do not try to return EINVALID_CMD_LINE error when we
have already openned VG - this error code can only be returned before
locking VG.
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>).
This fixes commit f50d4011cd which
introduced a problem when using older lvm2 code with newer libdm.
In this case, the old LVM didn't recognize new _LOG_BYPASS_REPORT flag
that libdm-report code used. This ended up with no output at all
from libdm where log_print_bypass_report was called because the
_LOG_BYPASS_REPORT was not masked properly in lvm2's print_log fn
which was called as callback function for logging.
With this patch, the lvm2 registers separate print_log_libdm logging
function for libdm instead. The print_log_libdm is exactly the same
as print_log (used throughout lvm2 code) but it checks whether we're
printing common line on output where "common" means not going to stderr,
not a warning and not an error and if we are, it adds the
_LOG_BYPASS_REPORT flag so the log_print goes directly to output, not
to any log report.
So this achieves the same goal as in f50d4011cd,
just doing it in a way that newer libdm is still compatible with older
lvm2 code (libdm-report is the only code using log_print).
Looking at the opposite mixture - older libdm with newer lvm2 code,
that won't be compilable because the new log report functionality
that is in lvm2 also requires new dm_report_group_* libdm functions
so we don't need to care here.
Move code from original print_log fn to a separate _vprint_log function
that accepts va_list and make print_log a wrapper over _vprint_log.
The print_log just initializes the va_list and uses it for _vprint_log
call now. This way, we can reuse _vprint_log if needed.
Previously, vgcfgrestore would attempt to vg_remove the
existing VG from lvmetad and then vg_update to add the
restored VG. But, if there was a failure in the command
or with vg_update, the lvmetad cache would be left incorrect.
Now, disable lvmetad before the restore begins, and then
rescan to populate lvmetad from disk after restore has
written the new VG to disk.
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.
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.
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.
This fixes a problem in commit ae0a8740c. The problem
in that commit was that all existing PVs are initially
dropped from lvmetad. This works if the VG is updated
at the end, which replaces the dropped PVs, but if the
rescan finds that the VG seqno is unchanged, it leaves
the cached VG in place. So, we should only drop the
existing PVs in lvmetad when the VG is going to be updated.
Original code missed to catch all apperances of SIGINT.
Also enhance logging when running in shell without tty.
Accept this regex as valid input:
'^[ ^t]*([Yy]([Ee]([Ss]|)|)|[Nn]([Oo]|))[ ^t]*$'
Some commands scan labels to populate lvmcache multiple
times, i.e. lvmcache_init, scan labels to fill lvmcache,
lvmcache_destroy, then later repeat
Each time labels are scanned, duplicates are detected,
and preferred devices are chosen. Each time this is done
within a single command, we want to choose the same
preferred devices. So, check for existing preferences
when choosing preferred devices.
This also fixes a problem with the list of unused duplicate
devs when run in an lvm shell. The devs had been allocated
from cmd memory, resulting in invalid list entries between
commands.
A number of places are working on a specific dev when they
call lvmcache_info_from_pvid() to look up an info struct
based on a pvid. In those cases, pass the dev being used
to lvmcache_info_from_pvid(). When a dev is specified,
lvmcache_info_from_pvid() will verify that the cached
info it's using matches the dev being processed before
returning the info. Calling code will not mistakenly
get info for the wrong dev when duplicate devs exist.
This confusion was happening when scanning labels when
duplicate devs existed. label_read for the first dev
would add an info struct to lvmcache for that dev/pvid.
label_read for the second dev would see the pvid in
lvmcache from first dev, and mistakenly conclude that
the label_read from the second dev can be skipped
because it's already been done. By verifying that the
dev for the cached pvid matches the dev being read,
this mismatch is avoided and the label is actually read
from the second duplicate.
If a command gets stuck during an lvmetad update, lvmetad
will cancel that update after the timeout. The next command
to check the lvmetad will see that lvmetad needs to be
populated because lvmetad will return token of "none" after
a timed out update (same as when lvmetad is not populated
at all after starting.)
If a command gets an error during an lvmetad update, it
will now just quit and leave its updating token in place.
That update will be cancelled after the timeout.
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

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)
This refactors the code for autoactivation. Previously,
as each PV was found, it would be sent to lvmetad, and
the VG would be autoactivated using a non-standard VG
processing function (the "activation_handler") called via
a function pointer from within the lvmetad notification path.
Now, any scanning that the command needs to do (scanning
only the named device args, or scanning all devices when
there are no args), is done first, before any activation
is attempted. During the scans, the VG names are saved.
After scanning is complete, process_each_vg is used to do
autoactivation of the saved VG names. This makes pvscan
activation much more similar to activation done with
vgchange or lvchange.
The separate autoactivate phase also means that if lvmetad
is disabled (either before or during the scan), the command
can continue with the activation step by simply not using
lvmetad and reverting to disk scanning to do the
activation.
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.
A program may be using liblvm2app for simply checking a config
setting in lvm.conf. In this case, a full lvm context is not
needed, only cmd->cft (which are the config settings read from
lvm.conf).
lvm_config_find_bool() can now be passed a NULL lvm context
in which case it will only create cmd->cft, check the config
setting asked for, and destroy the cmd.
When setting up a toolcontext, the lib init function
was detecting an error when there was none, and then
it was returning an incompletely initialized cmd struct
instead of NULL. The effect was that the lib would try
to use the uninitialized cmd struct and segfault.
This would happen if a non-fatal error occurred during
cmd setup, e.g. user permission failed on lvmetad socket,
causing cmd to fall back to scanning and not use lvmetad.
The only real error condition is when create_toolcontext
returns NULL. If cmd is returned, the lib can use it.
If a command begins repopulating the lvmetad cache,
and fails part way through, it should set the disabled
state in lvmetad so other commands don't use bad data.
If a subsequent scan succeeds, the disabled state is
cleared.
If duplicate devices exist for a PV, and one device's
size matches the PV size, but the other doesn't, then
prefer the matching device.
If one device is used by an active LV, prefer that device.
When there are duplicate devices for a PV, one device
is preferred and chosen to exist in the VG. The other
devices are not used by lvm, but are displayed by pvs
with a new PV attr "d", indicating that they are
unchosen duplicate PVs.
The "duplicate" reporting field is set to "duplicate"
when the PV is an unchosen duplicate, and that field
is blank for the chosen PV.
Previously, duplicate PVs were processed as a side effect
of processing the "chosen" PV in lvmcache. The duplicate
PV would be hacked into lvmcache temporarily in place of
the chosen PV.
In the old way, we had to always process the "chosen" PV
device, even if a duplicate of it was named on the command
line. This meant we were processing a different device than
was asked for. This could be worked around by naming
multiple duplicate devs on the command line in which case
they were swapped in and out of lvmcache for processing.
Now, the duplicate devs are processed directly in their
own processing loop. This means we can remove the old
hacks related to processing dups as a side effect of
processing the chosen device. We can now simply process
the device that was named on the command line.
When the same PVID exists on two or more devices, one device
is preferred and used in the VG, and the others are duplicates
and are not used in the VG. The preferred device exists in
lvmcache as usual. The duplicates exist in a specical list
of unused duplicate devices.
The duplicate devs have the "d" attribute and the "duplicate"
reporting field displays "duplicate" for them.
'pvs' warns about duplicates, but the formal output only
includes the single preferred PV.
'pvs -a' has the same warnings, and the duplicate devs are
included in the output.
'pvs <path>' has the same warnings, and displays the named
device, whether it is preferred or a duplicate.
Wait to compare and choose alternate duplicate devices until
after all devices are scanned. During scanning, the first
duplicate dev is kept in lvmcache, and others are kept in a
new list (_found_duplicate_devs).
After all devices are scanned, compare all the duplicates
available for a given PVID and decide which is best.
If the dev used in lvmcache is changed, drop the old dev
from lvmcache entirely and rescan the replacement dev.
Previously the VG metadata from the old dev was kept in
lvmcache and only the dev was replaced.
A new config setting devices/allow_changes_with_duplicate_pvs
can be set to 0 which disallows modifying a VG or activating
LVs in it when the VG contains PVs with duplicate devices.
Set to 1 is the old behavior which allowed the VG to be
changed.
The logic for which of two devs is preferred has changed.
The primary goal is to choose a device that is currently
in use if the other isn't, e.g. by an active LV.
. prefer dev with fs mounted if the other doesn't, else
. prefer dev that is dm if the other isn't, else
. prefer dev in subsystem if the other isn't
If neither device is preferred by these rules, then don't
change devices in lvmcache, leaving the one that was found
first.
The previous logic for preferring a device was:
. prefer dev in subsystem if the other isn't, else
. prefer dev without holders if the other has holders, else
. prefer dev that is dm if the other isn't
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.
When creating LV - in some case we change created segment type
(ATM for cache and snapshot) and we then manipulate with
lv segment according to 'lp' segtype.
Fix this by checking for proper type before accessing segment members.
This makes command like:
lvcreate --type cache-pool -L10 vg/cpool
lvcreate -H -L10 --cachesettings migtation_threshold=10000 vg/cpool
to pass since now tool correctly selects default cache policy.
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.
Checking for devices uses is_missing_pv() to check
if there is a device for the PV. is_missing_pv()
is based on the MISSING_PV flag, which does not
always correspond to !pv->dev. When using lvmetad,
a command like:
pvs --config 'devices/filter=["a|/dev/sdb|", "r|.*|"]'
will cause a number of PVs to have NULL pv->dev, but
not the MISSING_PV flag. So, NULL pv->dev needs to
also be checked.
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.

When checking assumed PVs against real devices used for LVs and if
there's no device assigned for an assumed PV (e.g. due to filters),
do log_warn instead of log_error and continue checking LV segments
and associated assumed PVs further, just like we do log_warn elsewhere
in this situation.
This way user will see the warning for each LV which couldn't be
checked completely against real PVs used. Before, we logged only
the very first occurence of missing device for an LV in a VG and we
returned from the function doing this check for all the LVs in VG
immediately which may be a bit misleading because it didn't tell
user about all the other LVs and whether they could be checked
or not.
For example, we have this setup:

If lvmetad is running, and a command opts to not use it
(--config global/use_lvmetad=0), and the command changes
metadata, then the metadata change is not visible to
lvmetad. Subsequent commands using lvmetad to change
metadata may cause corruption based on the invalid
lvmetad state.
Eventually we can set the disabled state in lvmetad
to prevent this problem, but for now print a warning
about the possibility.
When command is not using lvmetad because
use_lvmetad=0 in the config, but the lvmetad
pidfile exists, print a warning (previously
this checked for the socket existing instead
of the pidfile existing.)
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().
The lvmetad connection is created within the
init_connections() path during command startup,
rather than via the old lvmetad_active() check.
The old lvmetad_active() checks are replaced
with lvmetad_used() which is a simple check that
tests if the command is using/connected to lvmetad.
The old lvmetad_set_active(cmd, 0) calls, which
stopped the command from using lvmetad (to revert to
disk scanning), are replaced with lvmetad_make_unused(cmd).
After a device rescan that repopulates lvmetad,
if no reason for disabling lvmetad was seen
(lvm1 metadata or duplicate PVs), then clear
the disabled flag in lvmetad. This allows
commands to resume using the lvmetad cache
after the cause for disabling it has been removed.
Commands already check if the lvmetad token is valid,
and if not, they rescan devices to repopulate lvmetad
before running. Now, in addition to checking the
lvmetad token, they also check if the lvmetad disabled
flag is set. If so, they do not use the lvmetad cache
and revert to disk scanning.
A global flag in lvmetad indicates it has been disabled.
Other flags indicate the reason it was disabled.
These flags can be queried using get_global_info.
The lvmetactl debugging utility can set and clear the
disabled flag in lvmetad. Nothing else sets the
disabled flag yet.
Commands will check these flags after connecting to
lvmetad. If the disabled flag is set, the command
will not use the lvmetad cache, but revert to disk
scanning.
To test this feature:
$ lvmetactl get_global_info
response = "OK"
global_invalid = 0
global_disable = 0
disable_reason = "none"
token = "filter:3041577944"
$ vgs
(should report VGs from lvmetad)
$ lvmetactl set_global_disable 1
$ lvmetactl get_global_info
response = "OK"
global_invalid = 0
global_disable = 1
disable_reason = "DIRECT"
token = "filter:3041577944"
$ vgs
WARNING: Not using lvmetad because the disable flag was set directly.
(should report VGs without contacting lvmetad)
$ lvmetactl set_global_disable 0

Improve code for snapshot merge for readabilty
and also reduce number of tests needed to decide
if merging can or cannot be started.
(Further improving 9cccf5245a)
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.)
Move checking the lvmetad state, and the possible rescan,
out of lvmetad_send() to the start of the command.
Previously, the token mismatch and rescan would occur
within lvmetad_send() for some other request. Now,
the token mismatch is detected earlier, so the
rescan can be done before the main command is in
progress. Rescanning deep within the processing of
another command will disturb the lvmcache state of
that other command.
A rescan already exists at the start of the command
for the case where foreign VGs are going to be read.
This same rescan is now also performed when there is
an lvmetad token mismatch (from a changed global_filter).
The commands pvscan/vgscan/lvscan/vgimport are excluded
from this preemptive checking/rescanning for lvmetad
because they want to do rescanning themselves explicitly.
If rescanning devices fails, then lvmetad has not been
correctly repopulated and should not be used, so make
the command revert to not using lvmetad.
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.
We don't have any report field of this type yet. Return this patch into
the play if we really need that. Currenly we always report status
(result of "status" dm ioctl) for an LV as a whole where we choose
segment which represents the LV, not calling status for each possible
segment it contains - we don't need this now so I'm removing it to
not make the code more complex uselessly.
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.
When leaving preload routine it should not altet state of flush required
when it's been already set to 1 and drop it to 0.
The API here is unclean, but current usage expects the same
variable pointer is for all preload calls and combines 'flush_required'
across all of them.
Commit 844b009584 tried to move
limit for usage of noflush to 'preload' however this was not
correctly processed.
Intead explicitly check for which types we do not want noflush
and also add debug message in this case.
Fix regression caused by commit ba41ee1dc9.
The idea was to use no_flush for changed device only for thin volumes
and thin pools but also to merge this with change made in commit
844b009584.
However the resulting condition has caused misbehavior for the mirror
suspend - as that has been before the ONLY allowed target type
that could have been suspended with noflush.
Result was badly working repair for --type mirror that has been
passing 'flush' to the repaired mirror target whenever preload
wrongly set flush_required.
The origin code has required the flush_required to be set whenever
deivce size is changed.
Now it first detects if device size got smaller
'dm_tree_node_size_changed(root) < 0' - this requires flush.
Otherwise it checks device is not thin volume nor thin pool and its
size has changed (got bigger) and requires flush.
This mean upsize of thin-pool or thin volume will not require flush.
/sys/dev/block is available since kernel version 2.2.26 (~ 2008):
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-dev
The VGID/LVID indexing code relies on this feature so skip indexing
if it's not available to avoid error messages about inability to open
/sys/dev/block directory.
We're not going to provide fallback code to read the /sys/block/
instead in this case as that's not that efficient - it needs extra
reads for getting major:minor and reading partitions would also
pose further reads and that's not worth it.
If compiling without udev_sync support, udev_get_library_context simply
returns NULL so we don't need to remember putting ifdef UDEV_SYNC_SUPPORT
in the code all the time we just need to check whether there's any udev
context initialized or not.
If obtain_device_list_from_udev=0, LVM can make use of persistent .cache
file. This cache file contains only devices which underwent filters in
previous LVM command run. But we need to iterate over all block devices
to create the VGID/LVID index completely for the device mismatch check
to be complete as well.
This patch iterates over block devices found in sysfs to generate the
VGID/LVID index in dev cache if obtain_device_list_from_udev=0
(if obtain_device_list_from_udev=1, we always read complete list of
block devices from udev and we ignore .cache file so we don't need
to look in sysfs for the complete list).
