The option can be used in multiple ways (like --cachesettings):
--integritysettings key=val
--integritysettings 'key1=val1 key2=val2'
--integritysettings key1=val1 --integritysettings key2=val2
Use with lvcreate or lvconvert when integrity is first enabled
to configure:
journal_sectors
journal_watermark
commit_time
bitmap_flush_interval
allow_discards
Use with lvchange to configure (only while inactive):
journal_watermark
commit_time
bitmap_flush_interval
allow_discards
lvchange --integritysettings "" clears any previously configured
settings, so dm-integrity will use its own defaults.
lvs -a -o integritysettings displays configured settings.
Move the code around caching active dm device devno, name and uuid
from device_mapper/libdm-iface to dev_cache file - as libdm layer
cares about 'decoding' ioctl data from kernel and caching for use by
lvm stays within lvm.
Introduce:
dev_cache_update_dm_devs
dev_cache_get_dm_dev_by_devno
dev_cache_get_dm_dev_by_uuid
Use radix_tree for searching.
Introduce function to find device's name and uuid for
a given major:minor.
This information is cached with dm_device_list which reads all the
info from single ioctl(DM_DEVICE_LIST).
Lvm keeps major:minor name & uuid for active devices in the system.
Add new DM_REPORT_OUTPUT_FIELD_IDS_IN_HEADINGS report output flag.
If enabled, column IDs are reported instead of column names in report
headings.
The 'column IDs' are IDs as found in 'const struct dm_report_field_type *fields'
array that is passed during report initialization (that is, a call to
dm_report_init/dm_report_init_with_selection). In this case, the 'id'
dm_report_field_type member is used instead of the 'heading' member.
The original JSON formatting will be still available using the original
DM_REPORT_GROUP_JSON identifier. Subsequent patches will add enhancements
to JSON formatting code so that it adheres more to JSON standard - this
will be identified by new DM_REPORT_GROUP_JSON_STD identifier.
New API extension (internal ATM) for getting a list
of active DM device with extra features like i.e. uuid.
To easily lookout for existing UUID in device list,
there is: dm_device_list_find_by_uuid()
Once the returned structure is no longer usable call:
dm_device_list_destroy()
Struct dm_active_device {} holds all the info,
but is always allocated and destroyed within library.
TODO: once it's stable, copy to libdm
Initial support for thin-pool used slightly smaller max size 15.81GiB
for thin-pool metadata. However the real limit later settled at 15.88GiB
(difference is ~64MiB - 16448 4K blocks).
lvm2 could not simply increase the size as it has been using hard cropping
of the loaded metadata device to avoid warnings printing warning of kernel
when the size was bigger (i.e. due to bigger extent_size).
This patch adds the new lvm.conf configurable setting:
allocation/thin_pool_crop_metadata
which defaults to 0 -> no crop of metadata beyond 15.81GiB.
Only user with these sizes of metadata will be affected.
Without cropping lvm2 now limits metadata allocation size to 15.88GiB.
Any space beyond is currently not used by thin-pool target.
Even if i.e. bigger LV is used for metadata via lvconvert,
or allocated bigger because of to large extent size.
With cropping enabled (=1) lvm2 preserves the old limitation
15.81GiB and should allow to work in the evironement with
older lvm2 tools (i.e. older distribution).
Thin-pool metadata with size bigger then 15.81G is now using CROP_METADATA
flag within lvm2 metadata, so older lvm2 recognizes an
incompatible thin-pool and cannot activate such pool!
Users should use uncropped version as it is not suffering
from various issues between thin_repair results and allocated
metadata LV as thin_repair limit is 15.88GiB
Users should use cropping only when really needed!
Patch also better handles resize of thin-pool metadata and prevents resize
beoyond usable size 15.88GiB. Resize beyond 15.81GiB automatically
switches pool to no-crop version. Even with existing bigger thin-pool
metadata command 'lvextend -l+1 vg/pool_tmeta' does the change.
Patch gives better controls 'coverted' metadata LV and
reports less confusing message during conversion.
Patch set also moves the code for updating min/max into pool_manip.c
for better sharing with cache_pool code.
Switch remaining zero sized struct to flexible arrays to be C99
complient.
These simple rules should apply:
- The incomplete array type must be the last element within the structure.
- There cannot be an array of structures that contain a flexible array member.
- Structures that contain a flexible array member cannot be used as a member of another structure.
- The structure must contain at least one named member in addition to the flexible array member.
Although some of the code pieces should be still improved.
dm-integrity stores checksums of the data written to an
LV, and returns an error if data read from the LV does
not match the previously saved checksum. When used on
raid images, dm-raid will correct the error by reading
the block from another image, and the device user sees
no error. The integrity metadata (checksums) are stored
on an internal LV allocated by lvm for each linear image.
The internal LV is allocated on the same PV as the image.
Create a raid LV with an integrity layer over each
raid image (for raid levels 1,4,5,6,10):
lvcreate --type raidN --raidintegrity y [options]
Add an integrity layer to images of an existing raid LV:
lvconvert --raidintegrity y LV
Remove the integrity layer from images of a raid LV:
lvconvert --raidintegrity n LV
Settings
Use --raidintegritymode journal|bitmap (journal is default)
to configure the method used by dm-integrity to ensure
crash consistency.
Initialization
When integrity is added to an LV, the kernel needs to
initialize the integrity metadata/checksums for all blocks
in the LV. The data corruption checking performed by
dm-integrity will only operate on areas of the LV that
are already initialized. The progress of integrity
initialization is reported by the "syncpercent" LV
reporting field (and under the Cpy%Sync lvs column.)
Example: create a raid1 LV with integrity:
$ lvcreate --type raid1 -m1 --raidintegrity y -n rr -L1G foo
Creating integrity metadata LV rr_rimage_0_imeta with size 12.00 MiB.
Logical volume "rr_rimage_0_imeta" created.
Creating integrity metadata LV rr_rimage_1_imeta with size 12.00 MiB.
Logical volume "rr_rimage_1_imeta" created.
Logical volume "rr" created.
$ lvs -a foo
LV VG Attr LSize Origin Cpy%Sync
rr foo rwi-a-r--- 1.00g 4.93
[rr_rimage_0] foo gwi-aor--- 1.00g [rr_rimage_0_iorig] 41.02
[rr_rimage_0_imeta] foo ewi-ao---- 12.00m
[rr_rimage_0_iorig] foo -wi-ao---- 1.00g
[rr_rimage_1] foo gwi-aor--- 1.00g [rr_rimage_1_iorig] 39.45
[rr_rimage_1_imeta] foo ewi-ao---- 12.00m
[rr_rimage_1_iorig] foo -wi-ao---- 1.00g
[rr_rmeta_0] foo ewi-aor--- 4.00m
[rr_rmeta_1] foo ewi-aor--- 4.00m
reporting fields (-o) directly from kernel:
writecache_total_blocks
writecache_free_blocks
writecache_writeback_blocks
writecache_error
The data_percent field shows used cache blocks / total cache blocks.
Adds support for the DM_GET_TARGET_VERSION to dmsetup.
It introduces a new comman "target-version" that will accept list
of targets and print their version.

Recent kernel version from kernel commit:
de7180ff908b2bc0342e832dbdaa9a5f1ecaa33a
started to report in cache status line new flag:
no_discard_passdown
Whenever lvm spots unknown status it reports:
Unknown feature in status:
So add reconginzing this feature flag and also report this with
'lvs -o+kernel_discards'
When no_discard_passdown is found in status 'nopassdown' gets reported
for this field (roughly matching what we report for thin-pools).
Since configure.h is a generated header and it's missing traditional
ifdefs preambule - it can be included & parsed multiple times.
Normally compiler is fine when defines have same value and there is
no warning - yet we don't need to parse this several times
and by adding -include directive we can ensure every file
in the package is rightly compile with configure.h as the
first header file.
Drop very old original format of VDO target and focus on V2 version.
So some variables were renamed or replaced.
There is no compatibility preserved (with assumption so far this is
experimental feature and there is no real user).
Note - version currently VDO calls this version 6.2.
Ensure configure.h is always 1st. included header.
Maybe we could eventually introduce gcc -include option, but for now
this better uses dependency tracking.
Also move _REENTRANT and _GNU_SOURCE into configure.h so it
doesn't need to be present in various source files.
This ensures consistent compilation of headers like stdio.h since
it may produce different declaration.
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.)
