When the node enters dtree with implicit dependency, it
automatically has udev flags from parent node
and could not be changed later when the node has been
entered again via i.e lvm's preload tracking.
Resolve this by tracking whether the node has been
created by implicit dependency tracking or has been
entered explicitely. Implicit node could be later
upgraded by an explicit _add_dev() with proper udev_flags.
For implicit devices add special udev flags to avoid
any scan and udev rule processing if we resume such device.
Patch allows easier removing of orphan nodes.
Reuse _node_send_messages for just checking
for valid transaction_id with preload.
This allows earlier detection of incosistent thin pool.
Code does the same thing, except for sending messages.
Improve testing of transation_id to not allow other difference
then either kernel TID is equal or is lower by oned and there
are queued messages for transaction.
Mark messages as submitted if the transaction_id is already matching.
Do not try to deactivate node on failure here and leave it on
proper error path of the caller.
Deactivation of top level node has to happen,
before traversing subtree.
Swap list logic and rather append new nodes to the head
and then use normal iteration.
(in-release update)
Avoid introducing libdm structure allocated in library user.
Use direct call with all currently supported args.
When new arg is added, new function will cover it.
This patch defines a structure for holding all of the device-mapper
cache target's status information. The associated function provides
an easy way for higher levels (LVM) to consume the information.
This patch finishes the device-mapper interface for the cache and
cachepool segment types (i.e. the cache target).
This patch adds the cache segment type - the second of two necessary
to create cache logical volumes. This segment type references the
cachepool (the small fast device) and the origin (the large slow device);
linking them to create the cache device. The cache device is the
hierarchical device-mapper device that the user ulitmately makes use
of.
The cache segment sources the information necessary to construct the
device-mapper cache target from the origin and cachepool segments to
which it links.
Revert activated volumes if callback fails.
This is currently used only for thin_check failure support.
When thin_check detects failure in thin metadata device, it deactivate
volumes in reversed order that have been preloaded for thin pool activation.
After this change lvm command will not leave active pool subvolumes
in dm table.
Pass dnode pointer instead of rather unknown child pointer.
The pointer is currently unused and passing child pointer
is quite undefined, while dnode has at least some usability.
When images and their associated metadata are removed from a RAID1 LV,
the remaining sub-LVs are "shifted" down to fill the gaps. For
example, if there is a 3-way mirror:
[0][1][2]
and we remove device#0, the devices will be shifted down
[1][2]
and renamed.
[0][1]
This can create a problem for resume_lv (specifically,
dm_tree_activate_children) during the renaming process though. This
is because it will attempt to rename the higher indexed sub-LVs first
and find that it cannot because there are currently other sub-LVs with
that name. The solution is to check for a conflicting name before
attempting to rename. If a conflict is found and that conflicting
sub-LV is also in the process of renaming, we can defer the current
rename until the conflicting sub-LV has renamed and cleared the
conflict.
Now that resume_lv can handle these types of rename conflicts, we can
remove the workaround in RAID that was attempting to resume a RAID1
LV from the bottom-up in order to force a proper rename in assending
order before attempting a resume on the top-level LV. This "hack"
only worked for single machine use-cases of LVM. Clearing this up
paves the way for exclusive activation of RAID LVs in a cluster.
When resuming a node needed by a higher layer of the tree,
if the resume fails, only remove it if the node did not
originally have a live table.
Ref. 97f8454ecc
Clear send_messages flag when they have been delivered successfully.
There is no need to validate it for all other activations of the same
node in the dm_tree.
Also add extra debug message which shows the reason for skipping
sending of messages because the transaction_id has already the matching
value.
This patch adds the ability to set the minimum and maximum I/O rate for
sync operations in RAID LVs. The options are available for 'lvcreate' and
'lvchange' and are as follows:
--minrecoveryrate <Rate> [bBsSkKmMgG]
--maxrecoveryrate <Rate> [bBsSkKmMgG]
The rate is specified in size/sec/device. If a suffix is not given,
kiB/sec/device is assumed. Setting the rate to 0 removes the preference.
This patch may not be fully correct. It tries to solve
the imbalanced suspend counter.
The problem starts when some LV is created and fails in resume path.
(i.e. resuming to large PV (enforced) over small loop devices)
This fails in _resume_node() after dm_task_run(). And while
existing device with empty table is left in inactive table,
further calls are reporting this device is in suspend state.
When later the lvm2 tries to rollback created device and deactivate it,
it will end with internal error, when we try to decrement
never incremented suspend counter.
As an 'easy fix' for now update suspend counter only for live nodes.
TODO: explore better fix.
Since we use get_status also in dmeventd, which may use one pool
for a single device, in case it would be repeatedly returning error,
it may not be freeing the pool and would cause slow but steady growth.
To stay safe in the error path release any allocated memory.
'lvchange' is used to alter a RAID 1 logical volume's write-mostly and
write-behind characteristics. The '--writemostly' parameter takes a
PV as an argument with an optional trailing character to specify whether
to set ('y'), unset ('n'), or toggle ('t') the value. If no trailing
character is given, it will set the flag.
Synopsis:
lvchange [--writemostly <PV>:{t|y|n}] [--writebehind <count>] vg/lv
Example:
lvchange --writemostly /dev/sdb1:y --writebehind 512 vg/raid1_lv
The last character in the 'lv_attr' field is used to show whether a device
has the WriteMostly flag set. It is signified with a 'w'. If the device
has failed, the 'p'artial flag has priority.
Example ("nosync" raid1 with mismatch_cnt and writemostly):
[~]# lvs -a --segment vg
LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize
raid1 vg Rwi---r-m 2 raid1 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_0] vg Iwi---r-- 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_1] vg Iwi---r-w 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rmeta_0] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
[raid1_rmeta_1] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
Example (raid1 with mismatch_cnt, writemostly - but failed drive):
[~]# lvs -a --segment vg
LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize
raid1 vg rwi---r-p 2 raid1 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_0] vg Iwi---r-- 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_1] vg Iwi---r-p 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rmeta_0] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
[raid1_rmeta_1] vg ewi---r-p 1 linear 4.00m
A new reportable field has been added for writebehind as well. If
write-behind has not been set or the LV is not RAID1, the field will
be blank.
Example (writebehind is set):
[~]# lvs -a -o name,attr,writebehind vg
LV Attr WBehind
lv rwi-a-r-- 512
[lv_rimage_0] iwi-aor-w
[lv_rimage_1] iwi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_0] ewi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_1] ewi-aor--
Example (writebehind is not set):
[~]# lvs -a -o name,attr,writebehind vg
LV Attr WBehind
lv rwi-a-r--
[lv_rimage_0] iwi-aor-w
[lv_rimage_1] iwi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_0] ewi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_1] ewi-aor--
Revert commit 31c24dd9f2. This commit
was used to force a RAID device-mapper table to be loaded into the
kernel despite the fact that it was identical to the one already
loaded. The effect allowed a RAID array with a transiently failed
device to refresh and reintegrate the failed device. This operation
is better done in the kernel on a 'resume'. Since,
'lvchange --refresh' already performs a suspend/resume cycle, the
above commit is not needed once the kernel change is made. Reverting
the commit removes an unnecessary (at least for now) change to the
device-mapper interface.
I've updated the dm_status_raid structure and dm_get_status_raid()
function to make it handle the new kernel status fields that will
be coming in dm-raid v1.5.0. It is backwards compatible with the
old status line - initializing the new fields to '0'. The new
structure is also more amenable to future changes. It includes a
'reserved' field that is currently initialized to zero but could
be used to hold flags describing new features. It also now uses
pointers for the character strings instead of attempting to allocate
their space along with the structure (causing the size of the
structure to be variable). This allows future fields to be appended.
The new fields that are available are:
- sync_action : shows what the sync thread in the kernel is doing
(idle, frozen, resync, recover, check, repair, or
reshape)
- mismatch_count: shows the number of discrepancies which were
found or repaired by a "check" or "repair"
process, respectively.
Previous commit included changes to WHATSNEW, but the code changes
were missing. Here is the description from the previous commit:
commit bbc6378b73
Author: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com>
Date: Thu Feb 21 11:31:36 2013 -0600
RAID: Make 'lvchange --refresh' restore transiently failed RAID PVs
A new function (dm_tree_node_force_identical_table_reload) was added to
avoid the suppression of identical table reloads. This allows RAID LVs
to reload the on-disk superblock information that contains which devices
have failed and the bitmaps. If the failed device has returned, this has
the effect of restoring the device and initiating recovery. Without this
patch, the user had to completely deactivate their RAID LV and re-activate
it in order to restore the failed device. Now they simply need to
suspend and resume (which is done by 'lvchange --refresh').
The identical table suppression is only avoided if the LV is not PARTAIL
(i.e. all of it's devices can be seen and read by LVM) and the kernel
status of the array contains failed devices. In other words, the function
will only be called in the case where we may have success in restoring
a failed device in the array.
Similar to the way thin* accesses its kernel status, we add a method
for RAID to grab the various values in its status output without the
higher levels (LVM) having to understand how to parse the output.
Added functions include:
- lib/activate/dev_manager.c:dev_manager_raid_status()
Pulls the status line from the kernel
- libdm/libdm-deptree.c:dm_get_status_raid()
Parses status line and puts components into dm_status_raid struct
- lib/activate/activate.c:lv_raid_dev_health()
Accesses dm_status_raid to deliver raid dev_health string
The new structure and functions can provide a more unified way to access
status information. ('lv_raid_percent' could switch to using these
functions, for example.)
If the resume of preloaded node fails, do not leave such
node in the table - since it may not be easy to detach such
node later when the node is i.e. internal.
i.e. failing activation of the thin pool with mismatching
chunk size may leave -tpool device in the table, which
could have been then removed only by dmsetup command.
Patch clears the flag if thin pool is stacked over mirror.
Since thin pool could be used to stack device over mirrors,
it needs resume properly i.e. mirrors with corelog which are otherwise
unconditionally skipped (for pvmove functionality).
This patch adds support for RAID10. It is not the default at this
stage. The user needs to specify '--type raid10' if they would like
RAID10 instead of stacked mirror over stripe.
if the thin_check fail on thin pool - still return successful deactivation,
since lvremove would currently fail.
TODO: find some way to not run check with lvremove.
Add some hack math to allow 16GB devices to be passed as thinpool metadata.
Since kernel has put in limit to not allow which are just bigger then
some predefined constant in kernel but not matching 16GB so any device bigger
is rejected.
FIXME: Current code still might need more tweaks to be more generic.
It was not possible to pass down the DM_[FORCE|NO]SYNC flags to
'dm_tree_node_add_raid_target'. This meant that converting to 'raid1' from
'mirror' would cause a full resync. (It also meant that '--nosync' was
ineffective when creating a 'raid1' LV.)
I've taken the 'reserved' parameter in 'dm_tree_node_add_raid_target' and
used it for the "flags" parameter. Now it is possible to pass the sync
flags and any other flags that may come up.
Using PRELOAD part would lead to problems when the problem
would happen before vg_write and vg_commit.
Also this change is necessary for snapshot creation sequence.
LVM- prefix.
Try harder not to leave stray empty devices around (locally or remotely) when
reverting changes after failures while there are inactive tables.
Add dm_get_status_thin_pool and dm_get_status_thin functions to
parse 'params' argument which is received via dm_get_next_target.
Returns filed structure allocated from given mempool.
Remove DM_THIN_ERROR_DEVICE_ID from API.
Remove API warning.
Drop code that was using DM_THIN_ERROR_DEVICE_ID (already commented)
Remove debug message which slipped in through some previous commit.
A little code shuffling and adding support for
DM_THIN_ERROR_DEVICE_ID which might be eventually be used
for activation of thin which is going to be deleted.
For now we do not need it lvm.
Add a new node flag send_messages that is used to simplify
test when to call _node_send_messages().
Add call to _node_send_messages when pool is deeper in the tree.
There should be no need for retry for our internal devices - it would be hinding
our own bug in the tree processing.
Update error messages to show also also device name.
No WHATS_NEW - in release fix.
Certain errno codes could be expected in some situations thus
add experimental support for them.
When expected errno is set after ioctl error - function skips error
printing and exits succefully.
Currently only useful for thin pool messages.
The current code does not always assign proper udev flags to sub-LVs (e.g.
mirror images and log LVs). This shows up especially during a splitmirror
operation in which an image is split off from a mirror to form a new LV.
A mirror with a disk log is actually composed of 4 different LVs: the 2
mirror images, the log, and the top-level LV that "glues" them all together.
When a 2-way mirror is split into two linear LVs, two of those LVs must be
removed. The segments of the image which is not split off to form the new
LV are transferred to the top-level LV. This is done so that the original
LV can maintain its major/minor, UUID, and name. The sub-lv from which the
segments were transferred gets an error segment as a transitory process
before it is eventually removed. (Note that if the error target was not put
in place, a resume_lv would result in two LVs pointing to the same segment!
If the machine crashes before the eventual removal of the sub-LV, the result
would be a residual LV with the same mapping as the original (now linear) LV.)
So, the two LVs that need to be removed are now the log device and the sub-LV
with the error segment. If udev_flags are not properly set, a resume will
cause the error LV to come up and be scanned by udev. This causes I/O errors.
Additionally, when udev scans sub-LVs (or former sub-LVs), it can cause races
when we are trying to remove those LVs. This is especially bad during failure
conditions.
When the mirror is suspended, the top-level along with its sub-LVs are
suspended. The changes (now 2 linear devices and the yet-to-be-removed log
and error LV) are committed. When the resume takes place on the original
LV, there are no longer links to the other sub-lvs through the LVM metadata.
The links are implicitly handled by querying the kernel for a list of
dependencies. This is done in the '_add_dev' function (which is recursively
called for each dependency found) - called through the following chain:
_add_dev
dm_tree_add_dev_with_udev_flags
<*** DM / LVM divide ***>
_add_dev_to_dtree
_add_lv_to_dtree
_create_partial_dtree
_tree_action
dev_manager_activate
_lv_activate_lv
_lv_resume
lv_resume_if_active
When udev flags are calculated by '_get_udev_flags', it is done by referencing
the 'logical_volume' structure. Those flags are then passed down into
'dm_tree_add_dev_with_udev_flags', which in turn passes them to '_add_dev'.
Unfortunately, when '_add_dev' is finding the dependencies, it has no way to
calculate their proper udev_flags. This is because it is below the DM/LVM
divide - it doesn't have access to the logical_volume structure. In fact,
'_add_dev' simply reuses the udev_flags given for the initial device! This
virtually guarentees the udev_flags are wrong for all the dependencies unless
they are reset by some other mechanism. The current code provides no such
mechanism. Even if '_add_new_lv_to_dtree' were called on the sub-devices -
which it isn't - entries already in the tree are simply passed over, failing
to reset any udev_flags. The solution must retain its implicit nature of
discovering dependencies and be able to go back over the dependencies found
to properly set the udev_flags.
My solution simply calls a new function before leaving '_add_new_lv_to_dtree'
that iterates over the dtree nodes to properly reset the udev_flags of any
children. It is important that this function occur after the '_add_dev' has
done its job of querying the kernel for a list of dependencies. It is this
list of children that we use to look up their respective LVs and properly
calculate the udev_flags.
This solution has worked for single machine, cluster, and cluster w/ exclusive
activation.
Make limits for thin data_block_size and device_id part of public API.
FIXME: read them possible from some kernel header file in the future ?
But we may need to support different values for different versions ?
