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.
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).
Use process_each_vg() to lock and read the old VG,
and then call the main vgrename code.
When real VG names are used (not a UUID in place of the
old name), the command still pre-locks the new name
(when strcmp wants it locked first), before calling
process_each_vg on the old name.
In the case where the old name is replaced with a UUID,
process_each_vg now translates that UUID into the real
VG name, which it locks and reads. In this case, we
cannot do pre-locking to maintain lock ordering because
the old name is unknown. So, in this case the strcmp
based lock ordering is suppressed and the old name is
always locked first. This opens a remote chance for
lock ordering conflict between racing vgrenames between
two names where one or both commands use the UUID.
When checking minimum mda size, make sure the mda_size after alignment
and calculation is more than 0 - if there's no place for an MDA at the
end of the disk, the _text_pv_add_metadata_area does not try to add it
there and it returns (because we already have the MDA at the start of
the disk at least).
Actually, we don't need extra condition as introduced in commit
00348c0a63. We should fix the last
condition:
(mdac->rlocn.size >= mdah->size)
...which should be:
(MDA_HEADER_SIZE + (rlocn ? rlocn->size : 0) + mdac->rlocn.size >= mdah->size))
Where the "mdac" is new metadata, the "rlocn" is old metadata.
So the main problem with the previous condition was that it
didn't count in MDA_HEADER_SIZE properly (and possible existing
metadata - the "rlocn"). This could have caused the error state
where metadata in ring buffer overlap to not be hit.
Replace the new condition introduced in 00348c0a63
with the improved one for the condition that existed there
already but it was just incomplete.
We're already checking whether old and new meta do not overlap in
ring buffer (as we need to keep both old and new meta during vg_write
up until vg_commit).
We also need to check whether the new metadata do not overlap
themselves in case we don't have old metadata yet (...because
we're in vgcreate). This could happen if we're creating a VG so
that the very first metadata written are long enough that it wraps
themselves in metadata ring buffer.
Although we limited the minimum metadata area size better with the
previous commit ccb8da404d which
makes the initial VG metadata overlap in ring buffer to be less
probable, the risk of hitting this overlap condition is still there
if we still manage to generate big enough metadata somehow.
For example, users can provide many and/or long VG tags during vgcreate
so that the VG metadata is long enough to start to wrap in the ring
buffer again...
Also, leave out the note about "circular buffer" which is
an internal imeplementation detail anyway and not quite
informational for users:
Before this patch:
$ vgcreate vg1 /dev/sda
VG vg1 metadata too large for circular buffer
Failed to write VG vg1.
With this patch applied:
$ vgcreate vg1 /dev/sda
VG vg1 metadata too large: size of metadata to write is 691 bytes while PV metadata area size on /dev/sda is 512 bytes.
Failed to write VG vg1.
When using lvm shell, some structures which are cached in memory may be
reused. This happens for the struct label (a part of lvmcache_info
structure) when lvmetad is used in which case the PV scan is not
done that would normally overwrite these label structures in memory
and making them up-to-date.
This is all consequence of the fact that struct lvmcache_info and
struct label are not always assigned in the same part of the code.
For example, if lvmetad *is not* used, parts of the struct label are
reassigned in label_read fn while struct lvmcache_info is created
elsewhere. No part of the code reused struct label (and its "dev"
field) before calling label_read fn. That's why the real bug is
hidden when using lvm shell without lvmetad.
However, with lvmetad and lvm shell, the situation is a bit different.
The label_read fn is not called if lvmetad *is* used, hence the
struct label may have ended up not initialized properly.
There was missing assignment for the dev field in struct label
in _text_pv_write fn which caused this problem to appear in
lvm shell with lvmetad, for example:
Before this patch:
lvm> pvcreate /dev/sda
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
lvm> pvs /dev/sda
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
unknown device lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
With this patch applied:
lvm> pvcreate /dev/sda
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
lvm> pvs /dev/sda
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
Also, this problem had not appeared before changes introduced
by commits e1a63905d1 through
3a6f91d713 which, among other
things, added proper label field type reporting. Before, label
reporting was the same as using struct physical_volume which
has its own dev field assigned and so this problem was not exposed.
Use 64bit arithmentic for PV size calculation (Coverity).
Also remove sector shift for compared PV size, since all
values are already held in sectors.
This fixes validatio of PV size when restoring PV
from vg metadata backup file.
When performing initial allocation (so there is nothing yet to
cling to), use the list of tags in allocation/cling_tag_list to
partition the PVs. We implement this by maintaining a list of
tags that have been "used up" as we proceed and ignoring further
devices that have a tag on the list.

pv_write is called both to write orphans and to rewrite PV headers
of PVs in VGs. It needs to select the correct VG id so that the
internal cache state gets updated correctly.
It only affected commands that involved further steps after
the pv_write and was often masked because the metadata would
be re-read off disk and correct itself.
"Incorrect metadata area header checksum" warnings appeared.
Example:
Create vg1 containing dev1, dev2 and dev3.
Hide dev1 and dev2 from the system.
Fix up vg1 with vgreduce --removemissing.
Bring back dev1 and dev2.
In a single operation reinstate dev1 and dev2 into vg1 (vgextend).
Done as separate operations (automatically fix-up dev1 and dev2 as orphans,
then vgextend) it worked, but done all in one go the internal cache got
corrupted and warnings about checksum errors appeared.
The code never mixes reads of committed and precommitted metadata,
so there's no need to attempt to set PRECOMMITTED when
*use_previous_vg is being set.
Refactor the recent metadata-reading optimisation patches.
Remove the recently-added cache fields from struct labeller
and struct format_instance.
Instead, introduce struct lvmcache_vgsummary to wrap the VG information
that lvmcache holds and add the metadata size and checksum to it.
Allow this VG summary information to be looked up by metadata size +
checksum. Adjust the debug log messages to make it clear when this
shortcut has been successful.
(This changes the optimisation slightly, and might be extendable
further.)
Add struct cached_vg_fmtdata to format-specific vg_read calls to
preserve state alongside the VG across separate calls and indicate
if the details supplied match, avoiding the need to read and
process the VG metadata again.
Use similar logic as with text_vg_import_fd() and avoid repeated
parsing of same mda and its config tree for vgname_from_mda().
Remember last parsed vgname, vgid and creation_host in labeller
structure and if the metadata have the same size and checksum,
return this stored info.
TODO: The reuse of labeller struct is not ideal, some lvmcache API for
this functionality would be nicer.
This is probably not optimal, but makes the lvmetad case mimic non-lvmetad code
more closely. It also fixes vgremove of a partially corrupt VG with lvmetad, as
_vg_write_raw (and consequently, entire vg_write) currently panics when it
encounters a corrupt MDA. Ideally, we'd be able to explicitly control when it is
safe to ignore them.
The size of any metadata must be ignored when calculating the size of an
orphan PV.
Bug introduced by 603b45e0ed ("pvresize: Do
not use pv_read (get the PV from orphan VG).")
The metadata/disk_areas setting was incorrectly registered as
"string" configuration option but it's a section where each area
is defined in its own subsection with "start_sector", "size" and "id"
setting.
This setting is not officialy supported, it's undocumented and it's
used solely for debugging.
Note: At this moment, it does not seem to be working with lvmetad!
All labellers always use the "private" (void *) field as the fmt pointer. Making
this fact explicit in the type of the labeller simplifies the label reporting
code which needs to extract the format. Moreover, it removes a number of
error-prone casts from the code.
When reading an info about MDAs from lvmetad, we need to use 64 bit
int to read the value of the offset/size, otherwise the value is
overflows and then it's used throughout!
This is dangerous if we're trying to write such metadata area then,
mostly visible if we're using 2 mdas where the 2nd one is at the end
of the underlying device and hence the value of the mda offset is
high enough to cause problems:
(the offset trimmed to value of 0 instead of 4096m, so we write
at the very start of the disk (or elsewhere if the offset has
some other value!)

If "vgcreate/lvcreate --profile <profile_name>" is used, the profile
name is automatically stored in metadata for making it possible to
load it automatically next time the VG/LV is used.
