and "cachepool" to refer to a cache on a cache pool object.
The problem was that the --cachepool option was being used
to refer to both a cache pool object, and to a standard LV
used for caching. This could be somewhat confusing, and it
made it less clear when each kind would be used. By
separating them, it's clear when a cachepool or a cachevol
should be used.
Previously:
- lvm would use the cache pool approach when the user passed
a cache-pool LV to the --cachepool option.
- lvm would use the cache vol approach when the user passed
a standard LV in the --cachepool option.
Now:
- lvm will always use the cache pool approach when the user
uses the --cachepool option.
- lvm will always use the cache vol approach when the user
uses the --cachevol option.
There's a small window during creation of a new RaidLV when
rmeta SubLVs are made visible to wipe them in order to prevent
erroneous discovery of stale RAID metadata. In case a crash
prevents the SubLVs from being committed hidden after such
wiping, the RaidLV can still be activated with the SubLVs visible.
During deactivation though, a deadlock occurs because the visible
SubLVs are deactivated before the RaidLV.
The patch adds _check_raid_sublvs to the raid validation in merge.c,
an activation check to activate.c (paranoid, because the merge.c check
will prevent activation in case of visible SubLVs) and shares the
existing wiping function _clear_lvs in raid_manip.c moved to lv_manip.c
and renamed to activate_and_wipe_lvlist to remove code duplication.
Whilst on it, introduce activate_and_wipe_lv to share with
(lvconvert|lvchange).c.

. When using default settings, this commit should change
nothing. The first PE continues to be placed at 1 MiB
resulting in a metadata area size of 1020 KiB (for
4K page sizes; slightly smaller for larger page sizes.)
. When default_data_alignment is disabled in lvm.conf,
align pe_start at 1 MiB, based on a default metadata area
size that adapts to the page size. Previously, disabling
this option would result in mda_size that was too small
for common use, and produced a 64 KiB aligned pe_start.
. Customized pe_start and mda_size values continue to be
set as before in lvm.conf and command line.
. Remove the configure option for setting default_data_alignment
at build time.
. Improve alignment related option descriptions.
. Add section about alignment to pvcreate man page.
Previously, DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE was 255 sectors.
However, the fact that the config setting named
"default_data_alignment" has a default value of 1 (MiB)
meant that DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE was having no effect.
The metadata area size is the space between the start of
the metadata area (page size offset from the start of the
device) and the first PE (1 MiB by default due to
default_data_alignment 1.) The result is a 1020 KiB metadata
area on machines with 4KiB page size (1024 KiB - 4 KiB),
and smaller on machines with larger page size.
If default_data_alignment was set to 0 (disabled), then
DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE 255 would take effect, and produce a
metadata area that was 188 KiB and pe_start of 192 KiB.
This was too small for common use.
This is fixed by making the default metadata area size a
computed value that matches the value produced by
default_data_alignment.
If a single, standard LV is specified as the cache, use
it directly instead of converting it into a cache-pool
object with two separate LVs (for data and metadata).
With a single LV as the cache, lvm will use blocks at the
beginning for metadata, and the rest for data. Separate
dm linear devices are set up to point at the metadata and
data areas of the LV. These dm devs are given to the
dm-cache target to use.
The single LV cache cannot be resized without recreating it.
If the --poolmetadata option is used to specify an LV for
metadata, then a cache pool will be created (with separate
LVs for data and metadata.)

vgreduce, vgremove and vgcfgrestore were acquiring
the orphan lock in the midst of command processing
instead of at the start of the command. (The orphan
lock moved to being acquired at the start of the
command back when pvcreate/vgcreate/vgextend were
reworked based on pvcreate_each_device.)
vgsplit also needed a small update to avoid reacquiring
a VG lock that it already held (for the new VG name).
A few places were calling a function to check if a
VG lock was held. The only place it was actually
needed is for pvcreate which wants to do its own
locking (and scanning) around process_each_pv.
The locking/scanning exceptions for pvcreate in
process_each_pv/vg_read can be enabled by just passing
a couple of flags instead of checking if the VG is
already locked. This also means that these special
cases won't be enabled unknowingly in other places
where they shouldn't be used.
When the lvmlockd lock is shared, upgrade it to ex
when repair (writing) is needed during vg_read.
Pass the lockd state through additional read-related
functions so the instances of repair scattered through
vg_read can be handled.
(Temporary solution until the ad hoc repairs can be
pulled out of vg_read into a top level, centralized
repair function.)
As we start refactoring the code to break dependencies (see doc/refactoring.txt),
I want us to use full paths in the includes (eg, #include "base/data-struct/list.h").
This makes it more obvious when we're breaking abstraction boundaries, eg, including a file in
metadata/ from base/
Filters are still applied before any device reading or
the label scan, but any filter checks that want to read
the device are skipped and the device is flagged.
After bcache is populated, but before lvm looks for
devices (i.e. before label scan), the filters are
reapplied to the devices that were flagged above.
The filters will then find the data they need in
bcache.
There are likely more bits of code that can be removed,
e.g. lvm1/pool-specific bits of code that were identified
using FMT flags.
The vgconvert command can likely be reduced further.
The lvm1-specific config settings should probably have
some other fields set for proper deprecation.
When clvmd does a full label scan just prior to
calling _vg_read(), pass a new flag into _vg_read
to indicate that the normal rescan of VG devs is
not needed.
New label_scan function populates bcache for each device
on the system.
The two read paths are updated to get data from bcache.
The bcache is not yet used for writing. bcache blocks
for a device are invalidated when the device is written.
Introduce:
lv_is_component() check is LV is actually a component device.
lv_component_is_active() checking if any component device is active.
lv_holder_is_active() is any component holding device is active.
Since both lvcreate and lvconvert needs to check for same
type of allowed origin for snapshot - move the code into
a single function.
This way we also fix several inconsitencies where snapshot
has been allowed by mistake either through lvcreate or
lvconvert path.
vgmerge suffers from a similar problem to the one fixed in commit
8146548d25 ("vgsplit: Fix intermediate
metadata corruption.")
When merging, splitting or renaming VGs, use a new PV status flag
PV_MOVED_VG to mark the PVs that hold metadata with the old VG name and
use this to provide PV-level granularity instead of incorrectly assuming
all PVs in the VG are the same.
In order to reject out of place reshaping with segment data_offset
field on old runtime, add a respective segment type incompatibility
flag causing "+RESHAPE_DATA_OFFSET" to be suffixed to the segment
type name.
Prohibit activation of reshaping RaidLVs on incompatible
lvm2 runtime by storing e.g. 'raid5+RESHAPE' segment type
strings in the lvm2 metadata. Incompatible runtime not
supporting reshaping won't be able to activate those thus
avoiding potential data corruption.
Any new non-reshaping lvconvert command will reset the
segment type string from 'raid5+RESHAPE' to 'raid5'.
See commits
0299a7af1e and
4141409eb0
for segtype flag support.
Cache pool read/writes metadata_format within its segment type..
For CachePoolLV unselected metadata format is NOT stored in metadata.
For CacheLV when metadata format is not present/selected in lvm2 metadata,
it's automatically assumed to be the version 1 (backward compatible).
To ensure older lvm2 will not 'miss-read' metadata with new version 2,
such LV is marked with METADATA_FORMAT status flag (segment is
specifying metadata format). So when cache uses metadata format 2,
it will become inaccesible on older system without such support.
(kernel dm cache < 1.10, lvm2 < 2.02.169).
Add new profilable configation setting to let user select
which metadata format of a created cache pool he wish to use.
By default the 'best' available format is autodetected at runtime,
but user may enforce format 1 or 2 ATM.
Code also detects availability for metadata2 supporting cache target.
In case of troubles user may easily Disable usage of this feature
by placing 'metadata2' into global/cache_disabled_features list.
As now we can properly recognize all paramerters for pool creation,
we may drop PASS_ARG_ defines and rely on '_UNSELECTED' or 0 entries
as being those without user given args.
When setting are not given on command line - 'update' function
fill them from profiles or configuration. For this 'profile' arg
was needed to be passed around and since 'VG' itself is not needed,
it's been all replaced with 'cmd, profile, extents_size' args.
To more easily recognize unselected state from select '0' state
add new 'THIN_ZERO_UNSELECTED' enum.
Same applies to THIN_DISCARDS_UNSELECTED.
For those we no longer need to use PASS_ARG_ZERO or PASS_ARG_DISCARDS.
Basically code moving operation to have a single place resolving
thin_pool_chunk_size_policy.
Supported are generic & performance profiles.
Function is now shared between thin manipulation code and configuration
_CFG logic to obtain defaults and handle correct reporting upward coding
stack.
Splitting off an image LV of a 2-legged
raid1 LV causes loss of resilience.
Ask user to avoid uninformed loss of all resilience.
Don't ask for N > 2 legged raid1 LVs.
Adjust tests.
Splitting off an image LV of a 2-legged raid1 LV tracking changes
causes loosing partial resilience for any newly written data set.
Full resilience will be provided again after the split off image LV
got merged back in and the new data set got fully synchronized.
Reason being that the data is only stored on the remaining single
writable image during the split.
Ask user to avoid uninformed loss of such partial resilience.
Don't ask for N > 2 legged raid1 LVs.
The lv_extend/_lv_reduce API doesn't cope with resizing RaidLVs
with allocated reshape space and ongoing conversions. Prohibit
resizing during conversions and remove the reshape space before
processing resize. Add missing seg->data_copies initialisation.
Fix typo/comment.
In order to support striped raid5/6/10 LV reshaping (change
of LV type, stripesize or number of legs), this patch
introduces infrastructure prerequisites to be used
by raid_manip.c extensions in followup patches.
This base is needed for allocation of out-of-place
reshape space required by the MD raid personalities to
avoid writing over data in-place when reading off the
current RAID layout or number of legs and writing out
the new layout or to a different number of legs
(i.e. restripe)
Changes:
- add members reshape_len to 'struct lv_segment' to store
out-of-place reshape length per component rimage
- add member data_copies to struct lv_segment
to support more than 2 raid10 data copies
- make alloc_lv_segment() aware of both reshape_len and data_copies
- adjust all alloc_lv_segment() callers to the new API
- add functions to retrieve the current data offset (needed for
out-of-place reshaping space allocation) and the devices count
from the kernel
- make libdm deptree code aware of reshape_len
- add LV flags for disk add/remove reshaping
- support import/export of the new 'struct lv_segment' members
- enhance lv_extend/_lv_reduce to cope with reshape_len
- add seg_is_*/segtype_is_* macros related to reshaping
- add target version check for reshaping
- grow rebuilds/writemostly bitmaps to 246 bit to support kernel maximal
- enhance libdm deptree code to support data_offset (out-of-place reshaping)
and delta_disk (legs add/remove reshaping) target arguments

The MD kernel raid1 personality does no use any writemostly leg as the primary.
In case a previous linear LV holding data gets upconverted to
raid1 it becomes the primary leg of the new raid1 LV and a full
resynchronization is started to update the new legs.
No writemostly and/or writebehind setting may be allowed during
this initial, full synchronization period of this new raid1 LV
(using the lvchange(8) command), because that would change the
primary (i.e the previous linear LV) thus causing data loss.
lvchange has a bug not preventing this scenario.
Fix rejects setting writemostly and/or writebehind on resychronizing raid1 LVs.
Once we have status in the lvm2 metadata about the linear -> raid upconversion,
we may relax this constraint for other types of resynchronization
(e.g. for user requested "lvchange --resync ").
New lvchange-raid1-writemostly.sh test is added to the test suite.

. Define a prototype for every lvm command.
. Match every user command with one definition.
. Generate help text and man pages from them.
The new file command-lines.in defines a prototype for every
unique lvm command. A unique lvm command is a unique
combination of: command name + required option args +
required positional args. Each of these prototypes also
includes the optional option args and optional positional
args that the command will accept, a description, and a
unique string ID for the definition. Any valid command
will match one of the prototypes.
Here's an example of the lvresize command definitions from
command-lines.in, there are three unique lvresize commands:
lvresize --size SizeMB LV
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync, --reportformat String, --resizefs,
--stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB, --poolmetadatasize SizeMB
OP: PV ...
ID: lvresize_by_size
DESC: Resize an LV by a specified size.
lvresize LV PV ...
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync,
--reportformat String, --resizefs, --stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB
ID: lvresize_by_pv
DESC: Resize an LV by specified PV extents.
FLAGS: SECONDARY_SYNTAX
lvresize --poolmetadatasize SizeMB LV_thinpool
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync,
--reportformat String, --stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB
OP: PV ...
ID: lvresize_pool_metadata_by_size
DESC: Resize a pool metadata SubLV by a specified size.
The three commands have separate definitions because they have
different required parameters. Required parameters are specified
on the first line of the definition. Optional options are
listed after OO, and optional positional args are listed after OP.
This data is used to generate corresponding command definition
structures for lvm in command-lines.h. usage/help output is also
auto generated, so it is always in sync with the definitions.
Every user-entered command is compared against the set of
command structures, and matched with one. An error is
reported if an entered command does not have the required
parameters for any definition. The closest match is printed
as a suggestion, and running lvresize --help will display
the usage for each possible lvresize command.
The prototype syntax used for help/man output includes
required --option and positional args on the first line,
and optional --option and positional args enclosed in [ ]
on subsequent lines.
command_name <required_opt_args> <required_pos_args>
[ <optional_opt_args> ]
[ <optional_pos_args> ]
Command definitions that are not to be advertised/suggested
have the flag SECONDARY_SYNTAX. These commands will not be
printed in the normal help output.
Man page prototypes are also generated from the same original
command definitions, and are always in sync with the code
and help text.
Very early in command execution, a matching command definition
is found. lvm then knows the operation being done, and that
the provided args conform to the definition. This will allow
lots of ad hoc checking/validation to be removed throughout
the code.
Each command definition can also be routed to a specific
function to implement it. The function is associated with
an enum value for the command definition (generated from
the ID string.) These per-command-definition implementation
functions have not yet been created, so all commands
currently fall back to the existing per-command-name
implementation functions.
Using per-command-definition functions will allow lots of
code to be removed which tries to figure out what the
command is meant to do. This is currently based on ad hoc
and complicated option analysis. When using the new
functions, what the command is doing is already known
from the associated command definition.
- support shrinking of raid0/1/4/5/6/10 LVs

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.
(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.
Resolves: rhbz1311765
'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
'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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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 vg_strip_outdated_historical_lvs iterates over the list of historical LVs
we have and it shoots down the ones which are outdated.
Configuration hook to set the timeout will be in subsequent patch.
Also export historical LVs when exporting LVM2 metadata.
This is list of all historical LVs listed in
"historical_logical_volumes" metadata section with all
the properties exported for each historical LV.
For example, we have this thin snapshot sequence:
lvol1 --> lvol2 --> lvol3
\
--> lvol4
We end up with these metadata:
logical_volume {
...
(lvol1, lvol3 and lvol4 listed here as usual - no change here)
...
}
historical_logical_volumes {
lvol2 {
id = "S0Dw1U-v5sF-LwAb-W9SI-pNOF-Madd-5dxSv5"
creation_time = 1456919613 # 2016-03-02 12:53:33 +0100
removal_time = 1456919620 # 2016-03-02 12:53:40 +0100
origin = "lvol1"
descendants = ["lvol3", "lvol4"]
}
}
By removing lvol1 further, we end up with:
historical_logical_volumes {
lvol2 {
id = "S0Dw1U-v5sF-LwAb-W9SI-pNOF-Madd-5dxSv5"
creation_time = 1456919613 # 2016-03-02 12:53:33 +0100
removal_time = 1456919620 # 2016-03-02 12:53:40 +0100
origin = "-lvol1"
descendants = ["lvol3", "lvol4"]
}
lvol1 {
id = "me0mes-aYnK-nRfT-vNlV-UiR1-GP7r-ojbROr"
creation_time = 1456919608 # 2016-03-02 12:53:28 +0100
removal_time = 1456919767 # 2016-03-02 12:56:07 +0100
}
}
The get_or_create_glv is helper function that retrieves any existing
generic_logical_volume wrapper for the LV. If the wrapper does not exist
yet, it's created.
The get_org_create_glvl is the same as get_or_create_glv but it creates
the glv_list wrapper in addition so it can be added to a list.
Add new structures and new fields in existing structures to support
tracking history of LVs (the LVs which don't exist - the have been
removed already):
- new "struct historical_logical_volume"
This structure keeps information specific to historical LVs
(historical LV is very reduced form of struct logical_volume +
it contains a few specific fields to track historical LV
properties like removal time and connections among other LVs).
- new "struct generic_logical_volume"
Wrapper for "struct historical_logical_volume" and
"struct logical_volume" to make it possible to handle volumes
in uniform way, no matter if it's live or historical one.
- new "struct glv_list"
Wrapper for "struct generic_logical_volume" so it can be
added to a list.
- new "indirect_glvs" field in "struct logical_volume"
List that stores references to all indirect users of this LV - this
interconnects live LV with historical descendant LVs or even live
descendant LVs.
- new "indirect_origin" field in "struct lv_segment"
Reference to indirect origin of this segment - this interconnects
live LV (segment) with historical ancestor.
- new "this_glv" field in "struct logical_volume"
This references an existing generic_logical_volume wrapper for this
LV, if used. It can be NULL if not needed - which means we're not
handling historical LVs at all.
- new "historical_lvs" field in "struct volume group
List of all historical LVs read from VG metadata.
Make the data_alignment variable 64 bits so it
can hold the invalid command line arg used in
pvreate-usage.sh pvcreate --dataalignment 1e.
On 32 bit arches, the smaller variable wouldn't
hold the invalid value so the error would not
trigger as expected by the test.
"pvcreate_each_params" was a temporary name used
to transition from the old "pvcreate_params".
Remove the old pvcreate_params struct and rename the
new pvcreate_each_params struct to pvcreate_params.
Rename various pvcreate_each_params terms to simply
pvcreate_params.
