Going forward, we would like to allow users to specify the total
number of metadatacopies in a VG rather than on a per-PV basis. In
order to facilitate that, introduce --pvmetadatacopes to replace
--metadatacopies everywhere. We still allow --metadatacopies for
pv commands, but require --pvmetadatacopies for vg commands.
Eventually we will introduce --vgmetadatacopies. Once we do that,
we should either deprecate --metadatacopies or make it a synonym based
on the command (pvmetadatacopies for pv commands, and vgmetadatacopies
for vg commands). The latter option would likely just require a simple
'strncpy' check against cmd->command->name to qualify the merge_synonym
call.
Update nightly tests to cover the pvmetadatacopies synonym.
Note that this patch is the result of an eariler review comment for
the implicit pvcreate patches. Should apply cleanly on top of the
implicit pvcreate patches (I applied after patch 10/10 in that series).
NOTE: This patch will require --pvmetadatacopies for vgconvert as
--metadatacopies is no longer accepted.
Now uppercase letters imply Si units, so use lowercase everywhere.
We could stay with uppercase, but then we'd have to deal with rounding, etc.
Also, some output / error messages change slightly (instead of "GB" we're
now saying "GiB").
One test enhancement might be to add some new tests for the units changes
but for now let's just get the test back to passing.
- PPC uses 64k page, some caculations are wrong in tests
- file utility is buggy on PPC and cannot detect swap, use blkid instead
- read ahead is quietly rounded down according to page size
(for now use some common divisor value in test)
The dataalign value must always be aligned according
to MDA area.
The currect code checks if calculated value collides with
MDA area but not if the value is so small that it is
located before MDA starts.
Unfortunatelly there can be also MDA in the end of the device.
The patch adds simple check to avoid this miscalculation.
Patch expects that first MDA always starts on <= pagesize boundary
(this is true for all allowed label sector parameters).
This patch is not fully tested and leaves some related bugs unfixed.
Intended behaviour of the code now:
pe_start in the lvm2 format PV label header is set only by pvcreate (or
vgconvert -M2) and then preserved in *all* operations thereafter.
In some specialist cases, after the PV is added to a VG, the pe_start
field in the VG metadata may hold a different value and if so, it
overrides the other one for as long as the PV is in such a VG.
Currently, the field storing the size of the data area in the PV label
header always holds 0. As it only has meaning in the context of a
volume group, it is calculated whenever the PV is added to a VG (and can
be derived from extent_size and pe_count in the VG metadata).
Failure to check for label_write() return code caused the following test
to indicate it passed when it really failed:
pvcreate rejects labelsector > 1000000000000
