Improve the implementation of extracting all text metadata
copies from the metadata area. Use this for the existing
metadata_all dump option.
Add a new metadata_search dump option which does not use
lvm headers to find metadata, but looks in standard
locations. This is useful if headers are damaged and
can't be used to locate metadata.
Adding '-v' to metadata_all or metadata_search will add
the description and creation_time to the printed list of
metadata instances that are found.
Before 'archive()' is called, lvm2 must not touch/modify metadata.
So move setting CACHE_VOL related flags past this point.
Also make sure reading of cache segtype always restores this
flag properly (even if compatible flag would be lost).
Since code is using -cdata and -cmeta UUID suffixes, it does not need
any new 'extra' ID to be generated and stored in metadata.
Since introduce of new 'segtype' cache+CACHE_USES_CACHEVOL we can
safely assume 'new' cache with cachevol will now be created
without extra metadata_id and data_id in metadata.
For backward compatibility, code still reads them in case older
version of metadata have them - so it still should be able
to activate such volumes.
Bonus is lowered size of lv structure used to store info about LV
(noticable with big volume groups).
In the hex dump output, grep for the vgname
followed by one space. This allows for test pids
with up to seven digits, which are used to contruct
the variable vgname used by the test. Otherwise
the long vgname wraps to the next line and fails to
match in grep.
When an LV is used as a writecache cachevol, give
it the LV name a _cvol suffix. Remove the suffix
when the cachevol is detached, restoring the
original LV name.
The first part of a cachevol LV is used for metadata,
and the rest of the space is used for data. The
division of space between metadata and data depends
on the total size of the cachevol.
The previous division gave more space than needed to
metadata, it was:
cachevol size 8M to 128M -> metadata size 16M *
cachevol size 128M to 1G -> metadata size 32M
cachevol size 1G and up -> metadata size 64M
(* if this resulted in over half the LV used as
metadata, then half the cachevol would be used
for metadata, and the other half for data.)
The division of space now gives less space to
metadata, it is:
cachevol size 8M to 16M -> metadata size 4M
cachevol size 16M to 4G -> metadata size 8M
cachevol size 4G to 16G -> metadata size 16M
cachevol size 16G to 32G -> metadata size 32M
cachevol size 32G and up -> metadata size 64M
When a VG contains some LVs with unknown segtypes, the user
should still be allowed to activate other LVs in the VG that
are understood.

A cachevol LV had the CACHE_VOL status flag in metadata,
and the cache LV using it had no new flag. This caused
problems if the new metadata was used by an old version
of lvm. An old version of lvm would have two problems
processing the new metadata:
. The old lvm would return an error when reading the VG
metadata when it saw the unknown CACHE_VOL status flag.
. The old lvm would return an error when reading the VG
metadata because it would not find an expected cache pool
attached to the cache LV (since the cache LV had a
cachevol attached instead.)
Change the use of flags:
. Change the CACHE_VOL flag to be a COMPATIBLE flag (instead
of a STATUS flag) so that old versions will not fail when
they see it.
. When a cache LV is using a cachevol, the cache LV gets
a new SEGTYPE flag CACHE_USES_CACHEVOL. This flag is
appended to the segtype name, so that old lvm versions
will fail to use the LV because of an unknown segtype,
as opposed to failing to read the VG.
Enhance activation of cached devices using cachevol.
Correctly instatiace cachevol -cdata & -cmeta devices with
'-' in name (as they are only layered devices).
Code is also a bit more compacted (although still not ideal,
as the usage of extra UUIDs stored in metadata is troublesome
and will be repaired later).
NOTE: this patch my brink potentially minor incompatiblity for 'runtime' upgrade
Instead of using 'noflush' option, switch cache_mode into WRITETHROUGH
which does not require flushing, when user confirmed he does not
want flushing for WRITEBACK (because of (partially) missing caching PV)
For wiping we activate and clear 'regular' devices,
since in case of whole process interuption (i.e. kill -9)
we leave metadata & DM table and workable state all the time.
Let vgck --updatemetadata repair cases where different mdas
hold indepedently valid but unmatching copies of the metadata,
i.e. different text metadata checksums or text metadata sizes.
vgck --updatemetadata would write the same correct
metadata to good mdas, and then to bad mdas, but the
sequence of vg_write/vg_commit calls betwen good and
bad mdas could cause a different description field to
be generated for good/bad mdas. (The description field
describing the command was recently included in the
ondisk copy of the metadata text.)
If a VG is forcibly changed from lock_type sanlock to
lock_type none, the internal lvmlock LV is left behind.
If that LV is not removed before vgremove is run on the
VG, then an internal check will be triggered by the
hidden lvmlock LV. So, check for and remove a left over
lvmlock LV during vgremove.
Add lots of vdo fields:
vdo_operating_mode - For vdo pools, its current operating mode.
vdo_compression_state - For vdo pools, whether compression is running.
vdo_index_state - For vdo pools, state of index for deduplication.
vdo_used_size - For vdo pools, currently used space.
vdo_saving_percent - For vdo pools, percentage of saved space.
vdo_compression - Set for compressed LV (vdopool).
vdo_deduplication - Set for deduplicated LV (vdopool).
vdo_use_metadata_hints - Use REQ_SYNC for writes (vdopool).
vdo_minimum_io_size - Minimum acceptable IO size (vdopool).
vdo_block_map_cache_size - Allocated caching size (vdopool).
vdo_block_map_era_length - Speed of cache writes (vdopool).
vdo_use_sparse_index - Sparse indexing (vdopool).
vdo_index_memory_size - Allocated indexing memory (vdopool).
vdo_slab_size - Increment size for growing (vdopool).
vdo_ack_threads - Acknowledging threads (vdopool).
vdo_bio_threads - IO submitting threads (vdopool).
vdo_bio_rotation - IO enqueue (vdopool).
vdo_cpu_threads - CPU threads for compression and hashing (vdopool).
vdo_hash_zone_threads - Threads for subdivide parts (vdopool).
vdo_logical_threads - Logical threads for subdivide parts (vdopool).
vdo_physical_threads - Physical threads for subdivide parts (vdopool).
vdo_max_discard - Maximum discard size volume can recieve (vdopool).
vdo_write_policy - Specified write policy (vdopool).
vdo_header_size - Header size at front of vdopool.
Previously only 'lvdisplay -m' was exposing them.
Since we now support activation of 'vdo' volume
without explicit activation of 'vdopool' it's now possible
to have active layer vdopool (-vpool) volume and
having vdopool itself inactive - yet still in this
case we can show available stats for this volume.
But we need to show correct activation status and other
standard info.
