. the poll check will eventually call finish which will
write the VG, so an ex VG lock is needed from lvmlockd.
. fix missing unlock on poll error path
. remove the lockd locking while monitoring the progress
of the command, as suggested by the earlier FIXME comment,
as it's not needed.
Recent change to move the polling outside of core lvconvert
code was wrongly using 'lv' and 'vg' structs which can't be
used outside of the core code, which caused seg fault.
Properly isolate all use of lv structs within the core of
the lvconvert code, saving any information necessary,
(esp lvid). After the core of lvconvert is done, use
the saved information to do polling.
FIXME: the need for is_merging_origin and is_merging_origin_thin
in this patch is ugly, and a cleaner way should be found to deal
with that than what is done here.
Also it effectively removed all hacks in _lvconvert_merge_single
performing ugly: VG reread, unlock, polling, lock sequence.
Moreover all polling operations are postponed after all conversions
are finished.
lvm2 (while locking via lvmlockd) should now be able to run with
or without lvmpolld while performing poll operations originating
in lvconvert command.

The vgchange/lvchange activation commands read the VG, and
don't write it, so they acquire a shared VG lock from lvmlockd.
When other commands fail to acquire a shared VG lock from
lvmlockd, a warning is printed and they continue without it.
(Without it, the VG metadata they display from lvmetad may
not be up to date.)
vgchange/lvchange -a shouldn't continue without the shared
lock for a couple reasons:
. Usually they will just continue on and fail to acquire the
LV locks for activation, so continuing is pointless.
. More importantly, without the sh VG lock, the VG metadata
used by the command may be stale, and the LV locks shown
in the VG metadata may no longer be current. In the
case of sanlock, this would result in odd, unpredictable
errors when lvmlockd doesn't find the expected lock on
disk. In the case of dlm, the invalid LV lock could be
granted for the non-existing LV.
The solution is to not continue after the shared lock fails,
in the same way that a command fails if an exclusive lock fails.
When lvm is built without lvmlockd support, vgcreate using a
shared lock type would succeed and create a local VG (the
--shared option was effectively ignored). Make it fail.
Fix the same issue when using vgchange to change a VG to a
shared lock type.
Make the error messages consistent.
Keep policy name separate from policy settings and avoid
to mangling and demangling this string from same config tree.
Ensure policy_name is always defined.
Both lock_start filters were being skipped when any lock-opt
values were used. The "auto" lock-opt should cause the
auto_lock_start_list to be used. The lock_start_list should
always be used.
The behavior of lock_start_list/auto_lock_start_list are tested
and verified to behave like volume_list/auto_activation_volume_list.
Since the default was changed to wait for lock-start to finish,
the "wait" and "autowait" lock-opt values are not needed, but a
new "autonowait" is added to the existing "nowait" avoid the
default waiting.
There are two different failure conditions detected in
access_vg_lock_type() that should have different error
messages. This adds another failure flag so the two
cases can be distinguished to avoid printing a misleading
error message.
Require global/{thin,cache}_{check,repair}_options to be always defined.
If not defined directly by user in the configuration and if there's no
concrete default option to use, make "" (empty string) the default one -
it's then clearly visible in the "lvmconfig --type default" (and
generated lvm.conf) and also it makes its handling in the code more
straightforward so we don't need to handle undefined values.
This means, if there are no default values for these settings defined,
we end up with this generated now:
{thin,cache}_{check,repair}_options = [ "" ]
So the value is never undefined and if it is, it's an error.
(The cache_repair_options is actually not used in the code at the moment,
but once the code using this setting is in, it will follow the same logic
as used for thin_repair_options.)
The "exported" state of the VG can be useful with lockd VGs
because the exported state keeps a VG from being used in general.
It's a way to keep a VG protected and out of the way.
Also fix the command flags: ALL_VGS_IS_DEFAULT is not true for
vgimport/vgexport, since they both return errors immediately if
no VG args are specified. LOCKD_VG_SH is not true for vgexport
beause it must use an ex lock to write the VG.
When --nolocking is used (by vgs, lvs, pvs):
. don't use lvmlockd at all (set use_lvmlockd to 0)
. allow lockd VGs to be read
When --readonly is used (by vgs, lvs, pvs, vgdisplay, lvdisplay,
pvdisplay, lvmdiskscan, lvscan, pvscan, vgcfgbackup):
. skip actual lvmlockd locking calls
. allow lockd VGs to be read
. check that only shared gl/vg locks are being requested
(even though the actually locking is being skipped)
. check that no LV locks are requested, because no LVs
should be activated or used in readonly mode
. disable using lvmetad so VGs are read from disk
It is important to note the limited commands that accept
the --nolocking and --readonly options, i.e. no commands
that change/write a VG or change/activate LVs accept these
options, only commands that read VGs.
A new lockd lock needs to be created for the new LV
created by split mirror and split snapshot. Disallow
these options in lockd VGs until that is implemented.
This prevents 'lvremove vgname' from attempting to remove the
hidden sanlock LV. Only vgremove should remove the hidden
sanlock LV holding the sanlock locks.
tools/polldaemon.c:457: array_null: Comparing an array to null is not useful: "lv->lvid.s"
The lv->lvid.s is never NULL. The check was supposed to be *lv->lvid.s
to check if the string is not empty.
... Using uninitialized value "lockd_state" when calling "lockd_vg"
(even though lockd_vg assigns 0 to the lockd_state, but it looks at
previous state of lockd_state just before that so we need to have
that properly initialized!)
libdm/libdm-report.c:2934: uninit_use_in_call: Using uninitialized value "tm". Field "tm.tm_gmtoff" is uninitialized when calling "_get_final_time".
daemons/lvmlockd/lvmlockctl.c:273: uninit_use_in_call: Using uninitialized element of array "r_name" when calling "format_info_r_action". (just added FIXME as this looks unfinished?)
The lvmconfig --type full is actually a combination of --type current
and --type missing together with --mergedconfig options used.
The overall outcome is a configuration tree with settings as LVM sees
it when it looks for the values - that means, if the setting is defined
in some config source (lvm.conf, --config, lvmlocal.conf or any profile
that is used), the setting is used. Otherwise, if the setting is not
defined in any part of the config cascade, the defaults are used.
The --type full displays exactly this final tree with all the values
defined, either coming from configuration tree or from defaults.
We shouldn't be adding spaces by default in output as that
may be be used already in scripts and especially for the eval
in shell scripts where spaces are not allowed between key
and value!
Add --withspaces option to lvmconfig for pretty output with
more space in for readability.
Just as 'e' means activation with an exclusive lock,
add an 's' to mean activation with a shared lock.
This allows the existing but implicit behavior of '-ay'
of clvm LVs to be specified explicitly. For local VGs,
asy simply means ay, just like aey means ay.
For local VGs, ay == aey == asy
For clvm VGs, ay == asy, aey == aey, asy == asy
The hyphens are removed from long option names before
being read. This means that:
- Option name specifications in args.h must not include hyphens.
(The hyphen in 'use-policies' is removed.)
- A user can include hyphens anywhere in the option name.

There's a race when asking lvmpolld about progress_status and
actually reading the progress info from kernel:
Even with lvmpolld being used we read status info from
LVM2 command issued by a user (client side from lvmpolld perspective).
The whole cycle may look like following:
1) set up an operation that requires polling (i.e. pvmove /dev/sda)
2) notify lvmpolld about such operation (lvmpolld_poll_init())
3) in case 1) was not called with --background it would continue with:
4) Ask lvmpolld about progress status. it may respond with one of:
a) in_progress
b) not_found
c) finished
d) any low level error
5) provided the answer was 4a) try to read progress info from polling LV
(i.e. vg00/pvmove1). Repeat steps 4) and 5) until the answer is != 4a).
And now we got into racy configuration: lvmpolld answered with in_progress
but it may be the that in_between 4) and 5) the operation has already
finished and polling LV is already gone or there's nothing to ask for.
Up to now, 5) would report warning and it could print such warning many
times if --interval was set to 0.
We don't want to scary users by warnings in such situation so let's just
print these messages in verbose mode. Error messages due to error while
reading kernel status info (on existing, active and locked LV) remained
the same.
currently in wait_for_single_lv() fn trying to poll missing pvmove LV
is considered success. It may have been already finished by another
instance of polldaemon. either by another forked off polldaemon
or by lvmpolld.
Let's try to handle the mirror conversion and snapshot merge the same
way.
These wrappers have been replaced by direct calls
to vg_read() and find_lv() in previous commits.
This commit should have no functional impact since
all bits were already unreachable.
let's call dev_close_all() only before we're about to 'sleep'
for at least one second during the polling.
(it's questionable whether to call dev_close_all() at all in
polldaemon code. Natural extension would be to drop it completely)
More exact clean of library exported symbols files.
Also use $(firstword) test to check for empty string
so 'make clean' has now cleaner condensed look.
Clean also created include links.
we don't want to fail properly set pvmove after metadata
update. failure to copy id components could end with dangling
mirror moving PV segments but no monitoring from lvmpolld or
classical polldaemon.
lvpoll now process passed LV name properly. It respects
LVM_VG_NAME env. variable and is able to process LV name
passed in various formats:
- VG/LV
- LV name only (with LVM_VG_NAME set)
- /dev/mapper/VG-LV
- /dev/VG/LV
In process_each_{vg,lv,pv} when no vgname args are given,
the first step is to get a list of all vgid/vgname on the
system. This is exactly what lvmetad returns from a
vg_list request. The current code is doing a vg_lookup
on each VG after the vg_list and populating lvmcache with
the info for each VG. These preliminary vg_lookup's are
unnecessary, because they will be done again when the
processing functions call vg_read. This patch eliminates
the initial round of vg_lookup's, which can roughly cut in
half the number of lvmetad requests and save a lot of extra work.
querying future lvmpolld with zero wait time is highly undesirable
and can cause serious performance drop of the future daemon. The new
wrapper function may avoid immediate return from syscal by
introducing minimal wait time on demand.
Routines responsible for polling of in-progress pvmove, snapshot merge
or mirror conversion each used custom lookup functions to find vg and
lv involved in polling.
Especially pvmove used pvname to lookup pvmove in-progress. The future
lvmpolld will poll each operation by vg/lv name (internally by lvid).
Also there're plans to make pvmove able to move non-overlaping ranges
of extents instead of single PVs as of now. This would also require
to identify the opertion in different manner.
The poll_operation_id structure together with daemon_parms structure they
identify unambiguously the polling task.
Waiting even after _check_lv_status returned success and
'finished' flag was set to true doesn't make much sense.
Note that while we skip the wait() we also skip the
init_full_scan_done(0) inside the routine. This should
have no impact as long as the code after _wait_for_single_lv
doesn't presume anything about the state of the cache.
as a part of bigger effort to unify polling intefaces
poll_get_copy_lv should be able to look up LVs based
on theirs lv->status field.
Effective after pvmove starts using poll_get_copy_lv
fn as well.
This patch adds supporting code for handling deprecated settings.
Deprecated settings are not displayed by default in lvmconfig output
(except for --type current and --type diff). There's a new
"--showdeprecated" lvmconfig option to display them if needed.
Also, when using lvmconfig --withcomments, the comments with info
about deprecation are displayed for deprecated settings and with
lvmconfig --withversions, the version in which the setting was
deprecated is displayed in addition to the version of introduction.
If using --atversion with a version that is lower than the one
in which the setting was deprecated, the setting is then considered
as not deprecated (simply because at that version it was not
deprecated).
For example:
$ lvmconfig --type default activation
activation {
...
raid_region_size=512
...
}
$ lvmconfig --type default activation --showdeprecated
activation {
...
mirror_region_size=512
raid_region_size=512
...
}
$ lvmconfig --type default activation --showdeprecated --withversions
activation {
...
# Available since version 1.0.0.
# Deprecated since version 2.2.99.
mirror_region_size=512
# Available since version 2.2.99.
raid_region_size=512
...
}
$ lvmconfig --type default activation --showdeprecated --withcomments
activation {
...
# Configuration option activation/mirror_region_size.
# This has been replaced by the activation/raid_region_size
# setting.
# Size (in KB) of each copy operation when mirroring.
# This configuration option is deprecated.
mirror_region_size=512
# Configuration option activation/raid_region_size.
# Size in KiB of each raid or mirror synchronization region.
# For raid or mirror segment types, this is the amount of
# data that is copied at once when initializing, or moved
# at once by pvmove.
raid_region_size=512
...
}
$ lvmconfig --type default activation --withcomments --atversion 2.2.98
activation {
...
# Configuration option activation/mirror_region_size.
# Size (in KB) of each copy operation when mirroring.
mirror_region_size=512
...
}
These settings are in the "unsupported" group:
devices/loopfiles
log/activate_file
metadata/disk_areas (section)
metadata/disk_areas/<disk_area> (section)
metadata/disk_areas/<disk_area>/size
metadata/disk_areas/<disk_area>/id
These settings are in the "advanced" group:
devices/dir
devices/scan
devices/types
global/proc
activation/missing_stripe_filler
activation/mlock_filter
metadata/pvmetadatacopies
metadata/pvmetadataignore
metadata/stripesize
metadata/dirs
Also, this patch causes the --ignoreunsupported and --ignoreadvanced
switches to be honoured for all config types (lvmconfig --type).
By default, the --type current and --type diff display unsupported
settings, the other types ignore them - this patch also introduces
--showunsupported switch for all these other types to display even
unsupported settings in their output if needed.
lvmconfig --type list displays plain list of configuration settings.
Some of the existing decorations can be used (--withsummary and
--withversions) as well as existing options/switches (--ignoreadvanced,
--ignoreunsupported, --ignorelocal, --atversion).
For example (displaying only "config" section so the list is not long):
$lvmconfig --type list config
config/checks
config/abort_on_errors
config/profile_dir
$ lvmconfig --type list --withsummary config
config/checks - If enabled, any LVM configuration mismatch is reported.
config/abort_on_errors - Abort the LVM process if a configuration mismatch is found.
config/profile_dir - Directory where LVM looks for configuration profiles.
$ lvmconfig -l config
config/checks - If enabled, any LVM configuration mismatch is reported.
config/abort_on_errors - Abort the LVM process if a configuration mismatch is found.
config/profile_dir - Directory where LVM looks for configuration profiles.
$ lvmconfig --type list --withsummary --withversions config
config/checks - If enabled, any LVM configuration mismatch is reported. [2.2.99]
config/abort_on_errors - Abort the LVM process if a configuration mismatch is found. [2.2.99]
config/profile_dir - Directory where LVM looks for configuration profiles. [2.2.99]

'lvm dumpconfig' now does a lot more than just dumping configuration
information and is no longer only a support tool. Users now need
to run it to find out about configuration information that has been
removed from the lvm.conf man page so we need to promote this to full
command line status as 'lvmconfig'. Also accept 'lvm config' and mention
it in the usage information of lvmconf (which should also get merged in
eventually).
With use_lvmetad=0, duplicate PVs /dev/loop0 and /dev/loop1,
where in this example, /dev/loop1 is the cached device
referenced by pv->dev, the command 'pvs /dev/loop0' reports:
Failed to find physical volume "/dev/loop0".
This is because the duplicate PV detection by pvid is
not working because _get_all_devices() is not setting
any dev->pvid for any entries. This is because the
pvid information has not yet been saved in lvmcache.
This is fixed by calling _get_vgnameids_on_system()
before _get_all_devices(), which has the effect of
caching the necessary pvid information.
With this fix, running pvs /dev/loop0, or pvs /dev/loop1,
produces no error and one line of output for the PV (the
device printed is the one cached in pv->dev, in this
example /dev/loop1.)
Running 'pvs /dev/loop0 /dev/loop1' produces no error
and two lines of output, with each device displayed
on one of the lines.
Running 'pvs -a' shows two PVs, one with loop0 and one
with loop1, and both shown as a member of the same VG.
Running 'pvs' shows only one of the duplicate PVs,
and that shows the device cached in pv->dev (loop1).
The above output is what the duplicate handling code
was previously designed to output in commits:
b64da4d8b5 toollib: search for duplicate PVs only when needed
3a7c47af0e toollib: pvs -a should display VG name for each duplicate PV
57d74a45a0 toollib: override the PV device with duplicates
c1f246fedf toollib: handle duplicate pvs in process_in_pv
As a further step after this, we may choose to change
some of those.
For all of these commands, a warning is printed about
the existence of the duplicate PVs:
Found duplicate PV ...: using /dev/loop1 not /dev/loop0
Add support for 2 new envvars for internal lvm2 test suite
(though it could be possible usable for other cases)
LVM_LOG_FILE_EPOCH
Whether to add 'epoch' extension that consist from
the envvar 'string' + pid + starttime in kernel units
obtained from /proc/self/stat.
LVM_LOG_FILE_UNLINK_STATUS

so if the command is successful the log is automatically
deleted.
API is still for now experimental to catch various issue.

sharing connection between parent command and background
processes spawned from parent could lead to occasional failures
due to unexpected corruption in daemon responses sent to either child

spawning a background polling from within the lv_change_activate
fn went to two problems:
1) vgchange should not spawn any background polling until after
the whole activation process for a VG is finished. Otherwise
it could lead to a duplicite request for spawning background
polling. This statement was alredy true with one exception of
mirror up-conversion polling (fixed by this commit).
2) due to current conditions in lv_change_activate lvchange cmd
couldn't start background polling for pvmove LVs if such LV was
about to get activated by the command in the same time.
This commit however doesn't alter the lvchange cmd so that it works same as
vgchange with regard to not to spawn duplicate background pollings per
unique LV.
If the user provides '-m #' (# > 0) with mappings
raid4/5/6, the command silently creates
'#mirrors * #stripes + #parity' image component pairs.
Patch rejects '-m #' altogether for those mappings
in order to avoid LV creation with unexpected layout.

If the device name is not found in our metadata,
we cannot call strdup few lines later with NULL name.
More intersting story goes behind how it happens -
pvmove removal is unfortunatelly 'multi-state' process
and at some point (for now) we have in lvm2 metadata
LV pvmove0 as stripe and mirror image as error.
If such metadata are left - we fail with any further removal.
we do not allow 0 interval for pvmove command issued
without parameters with classical polldaemon. It would
query the kernel too often with possibly many pvmoves
in-progress.
So far pvmove_update_metadata (originaly _update_metadata) was
used for both initial and subsequent metadata updates during polling.
With a new polldaemon (lvmpolld) all operations that require polling
have to be split in two parts: The initiating one and the polling one.
The later step will be used from lvm command spawned by lvmpolld to
monitor and advance the mirror on next segment if required.
1) The initiation part is _update_metadata in pvmove.c which performs
only the first update, setting up the pvmove itself in metadata.
2) pvmove_update_metadata in pvmove_poll.c now handles all other
subsequent metadata updates except the last one.
Due to the split we could remove some code. Also some functions were
moved back to pvmove.c as they were suited for initialisation of pvmove
only.
This commit has no impact on functionality. Code required to
be visible outside lvconvert.c is just moved into new file
lvconvert_poll.c and some calls are made non-static and
declared in new header file lvconvert.h

_check_lv_status was called from within dm_list_iterate_items cycle.
This was utterly wrong! _check_lv_status may remove more than one LV from
vg->lvs list we iterated in the same time.
In some scenarios this could lead to deadlock iterationg over same LV
indefinitely or segfault depending on the circumstances.
Fixed by moving the _check_lv_status outside iterating the vg->lvs
list.
Note that commit 6e7b24d34f was not enough
as _check_lv_status may result in removal of more than one LV from the list.
Do not keep dangling LVs if they're removed from the vg->lvs list and
move them to vg->removed_lvs instead (this is actually similar to already
existing vg->removed_pvs list, just it's for LVs now).
Once we have this vg->removed_lvs list indexed so it's possible to
do lookups for LVs quickly, we can remove the LV_REMOVED flag as
that one won't be needed anymore - instead of checking the flag,
we can directly check the vg->removed_lvs list if the LV is present
there or not and to say if the LV is removed or not then. For now,
we don't have this index, but it may be implemented in the future.
This avoids a problem in which we're using selection on LV list - we
need to do the selection on initial state and not on any intermediary
state as we process LVs one by one - some of the relations among LVs
can be gone during this processing.
For example, processing one LV can cause the other LVs to lose the
relation to this LV and hence they're not selectable anymore with
the original selection criteria as it would be if we did selection
on inital state. A perfect example is with thin snapshots:
$ lvs -o lv_name,origin,layout,role vg
LV Origin Layout Role
lvol1 thin,sparse public,origin,thinorigin,multithinorigin
lvol2 lvol1 thin,sparse public,snapshot,thinsnapshot
lvol3 lvol1 thin,sparse public,snapshot,thinsnapshot
pool thin,pool private
$ lvremove -ff -S 'lv_name=lvol1 || origin=lvol1'
Logical volume "lvol1" successfully removed
The lvremove command above was supposed to remove lvol1 as well as
all its snapshots which have origin=lvol1. It failed to do so, because
once we removed the origin lvol1, the lvol2 and lvol3 which were
snapshots before are not snapshots anymore - the relations change
as we're processing these LVs one by one.
If we do the selection first and then execute any concrete actions on
these LVs (which is what this patch does), the behaviour is correct
then - the selection is done on the *initial state*:
$ lvremove -ff -S 'lv_name=lvol1 || origin=lvol1'
Logical volume "lvol1" successfully removed
Logical volume "lvol2" successfully removed
Logical volume "lvol3" successfully removed
Similarly for all the other situations in which relations among
LVs are being changed by processing the LVs one by one.
This patch also introduces LV_REMOVED internal LV status flag
to mark removed LVs so they're not processed further when we
iterate over collected list of LVs to be processed.
Previously, when we iterated directly over vg->lvs list to
process the LVs, we relied on the fact that once the LV is removed,
it is also removed from the vg->lvs list we're iterating over.
But that was incorrect as we shouldn't remove LVs from the list
during one iteration while we're iterating over that exact list
(dm_list_iterate_items safe can handle only one removal at
one iteration anyway, so it can't be used here).
When we're iterating over LVs in _poll_vg fn, we need to use the safe
version of iteration - the LV can be removed from the list which we're
just iterating over if we're finishing or aborting pvmove operation.
There is no reason to support persistent major/minor numbers
for pool volumes - it's only meant to be supported for filesystems
(since i.e. nfs may need to keep volume on a persistent device node.)
Support for pools is now explicitely disabled and documented.
When lvm1 PVs are visible, and lvmetad is used, and the foreign
option was included in the reporting command, the reporting
command would fail after the 'pvscan all devs' function saw
the lvm1 PVs. There is no reason the command should fail
because of the lvm1 PVs; they should just be ignored.
Though vgremove operates per VG by definition, internally, it
actually means iterating over each LV it contains to do the
remove.
So we need to direct selection a bit in this case so that the
selection is done per-VG, not per-LV.
That means, use processing handle with void_handle.internal_report_for_select=0
for the process_each_lv_in_vg that is called later in vgremove_single fn.
We need to disable internal selection for process_each_lv_in_vg
here as selection is already done by process_each_vg which calls
vgremove_single. Otherwise selection would be done per-LV and not
per-VG as we intend!
An intra-release fix for commit 00744b053f.
Set ACCESS_NEEDS_SYSTEM_ID VG status flag whenever there is
a non-lvm1 system_id set. Prevents concurrent access from
older LVM2 versions.
Not set on VGs that bear a system_id only due to conversion
from lvm1 metadata.
In log messages refer to it as system ID (not System ID).
Do not put quotes around the system_id string when printing.
On the command line use systemid.
In code, metadata, and config files use system_id.
In lvmsystemid refer to the concept/entity as system_id.
"!dev_cache_get(argv[i], cmd->full_filter) && !rescan_done" --> "!rescan_done && !dev_cache_get(argv[i], cmd->full_filter)
Check the simple condition first (variable), then the function return value
(which in this case certainly takes more time to evaluate) - save some time.
Two problems fixed by this patch:
- PV tags were not recognized at all when using them with pvs
report that has only label fields (regression since 2.02.105)
- incorrect persistent .cache file to be generated after pvs
report that has only label fields (regression since 2.02.106)
These bugs come from the transition from process_each_pv to
process_each_label introduced by commit
67a7b7a87d and commit
490226fc47 and related.
Commands that can never use foreign VGs begin with
cmd->error_foreign_vgs = 1. This tells the vg_read
lib layer to print an error as soon as a foreign VG
is read.
The toollib process_each layer also prints an error if a
foreign VG is read, but is more selective about it. It
won't print an error if the command did not explicitly
name the foreign VG. We want to silently ignore foreign VGs
unless a command attempts to use one explicitly.
So, foreign VG errors are printed from two different layers:
vg_read (lower layer) and process_each (upper layer).
Commands that use toollib process_each, only want errors from
the process_each layer, not from both layers. So, process_each
disables the lower layer vg_read error message by setting
error_foreign_vgs = 0.
Commands that do not use toollib process_each, want errors
from the vg_read layer, otherwise they would get no error
message. The original cmd->error_foreign_vgs setting
enables this error.
(Commands that are allowed to operate on foreign VGs always
begin with cmd->error_foreign_vgs = 0, and all the commands
in this group use toollib process_each with the selective
error reporting.)
If an LV is already rw but still ro in the kernel, allow -prw to issue a
refresh to try to change the kernel state to rw.
Intended for use after clearing activation/read_only_volume_list in
lvm.conf.
The only realistic way for a host to have active LVs in a
foreign VG is if the host's system_id (or system_id_source)
is changed while LVs are active.
In this case, the active LVs produce an warning, and access
to the VG is implicitly allowed (without requiring --foreign.)
This allows the active LVs to be deactivated.
In this case, rescanning PVs for the VG offers no benefit.
It is not possible that rescanning would reveal an LV that
is active but wasn't previously in the VG metadata.
cmirror uses the CPG library to pass messages around the cluster and maintain
its bitmaps. When a cluster mirror starts-up, it must send the current state
to any joining members - a checkpoint. When mirrors are large (or the region
size is small), the bitmap size can exceed the message limit of the CPG
library. When this happens, the CPG library returns CPG_ERR_TRY_AGAIN.
(This is also a bug in CPG, since the message will never be successfully sent.)
There is an outstanding bug (bug 682771) that is meant to lift this message
length restriction in CPG, but for now we work around the issue by increasing
the mirror region size. This limits the size of the bitmap and avoids any
issues we would otherwise have around checkpointing.
Since this issue only affects cluster mirrors, the region size adjustments
are only made on cluster mirrors. This patch handles cluster mirror issues
involving pvmove, lvconvert (from linear to mirror), and lvcreate. It also
ensures that when users convert a VG from single-machine to clustered, any
mirrors with too many regions (i.e. a bitmap that would be too large to
properly checkpoint) are trapped.
A foreign VG should be silently ignored by a reporting/display
command like 'vgs'. If the reporting/display command specifies
a foreign VG by name on the command line, it should produce an
error message.
Scanning commands pvscan/vgscan/lvscan are always allowed to
read and update caches from all PVs, including those that belong
to foreign VGs.
Other non-report/display/scan commands always ignore a foreign
VG, or report an error if they attempt to use a foreign VG.
vgimport should always invalidate the lvmetad cache because
lvmetad likely holds a pre-vgexported copy of the VG.
(This is unrelated to using foreign VGs; the pre-vgexported
VG may have had no system_id at all.)
Add --foreign to the remaining reporting and display commands plus
vgcfgbackup.
Add a NEEDS_FOREIGN_VGS flag for vgimport to always set --foreign.
If lvmetad is being used with --foreign, scan foreign VGs (currently
implemented as a full PV scan).
Handle these things centrally in lvmcmdline.c.
Also allow lvchange and vgchange -an/-aln to deactivate any foreign
LVs that happen to be active if something went wrong.
Remember to set the system ID when creating a new VG in vgsplit.
When checking whether the system ID permits access to a VG, check for
each permitted situation first, and only then issue the appropriate
error message. Always issue a message for now. (We'll try to
suppress some of those later when the VG concerned wasn't explicitly
requested.)
Add more messages to try to ensure every return code is checked and
every error path (and only an error path) contains a log_error().
Add self-correction to vgchange -c to deal with situations where
the cluster state and system ID state are out-of-sync (e.g. if
old tools were used).
Dop unused value assignments.
Unknown is detected via other combination
(!linear && !striped).
Also change the log_error() message into a warning,
since the function is not really returning error,
but still keep the INTERNAL_ERROR.
Ret value is always set later.
(This reverts patch #d95c6154)
Filter complete device list through full_filter unconditionally when
we're getting the list of *all* devices even in case we're interested
only in fraction of those devices - the PVs, not the other devices
which are not PVs yet (e.g. pvs vs. pvs -a).
We need to do this full filtering whenever we're handling *complete*
list of devices, we need to be safe here, mainly if there are any
future changes and we'd forgot to change to use proper filtering then.
Also properly preventing duplicates if there are any block subsystem
components used (mpath, MD ...).
Thing here is that (under use_lvmetad=1), cmd->filter can be used
only if we're sure that the list of devices we're filtering contains
only PVs. We have to use cmd->full_filter otherwise (like it is in
case of _get_all_devices fn which acquires complete list of devices,
no matter if it is a PV or not).
Of course, cmd->full_filter is more extensive than cmd->filter
which is only a subset of full_filter.
We could optimize this in a way that if we're interested in PVs only
during process_each_pv processing (e.g. using pvs in contrast to pvs -a),
we'd get the list of PV devices directly from lvmetad from the
lvmcache_seed_infos_from_lvmetad fn call which currently updates
lvmcache only. We'd add an additional output arg for this fn to get
the list of PV devices directly in addition, without a need to iterate
over all devices which include non-PVs which we're not interested in
anyway, hence we could use only cmd->filter, not the cmd->full_filter.
So the code would look something like this:
static int _get_all_devices(....)
{
struct device_id_list *dil;
if (interested_in_pvs_only)
lvmcache_seed_infos_from_lvmetad(cmd, &dil); /* new "dil" arg */
/* the "dil" list would be filtered through cmd->filter inside lvmcache_seed_infos_from_lvmetad */
else {
lvmcache_seed_infos_from_lvmetad(cmd, NULL);
dev_iter_create(cmd->full_filter)
while (dev = dev_iter_get ...) {
dm_list_add(all_devices, &dil->list);
}
}
}
