seg->extents_copied has to be defined properly on reducing
the size of a raid LV or conversion from raid5 with 1 stripe

The lv_extend/_lv_reduce API doesn't cope with resizing RaidLVs
with allocated reshape space and ongoing conversions. Prohibit
resizing during conversions and remove the reshape space before
processing resize. Add missing seg->data_copies initialisation.
Fix typo/comment.
For the time being raid10 is limited to even number of total stripes
as is and 2 data copies. The number of stripes provided on creation
of a raid10(_near) LV with -i/--stripes gets doubled to define
that even total number of stripes (i.e. images).
Apply the same on disk adding conversions (reshapes) with
"lvconvert --stripes RaidLV" (e.g. 2 stripes = 4 images
total converted to 3 stripes = 6 images total).

The MD kernel raid1 personality does no use any writemostly leg as the primary.
In case a previous linear LV holding data gets upconverted to
raid1 it becomes the primary leg of the new raid1 LV and a full
resynchronization is started to update the new legs.
No writemostly and/or writebehind setting may be allowed during
this initial, full synchronization period of this new raid1 LV
(using the lvchange(8) command), because that would change the
primary (i.e the previous linear LV) thus causing data loss.
lvchange has a bug not preventing this scenario.
Fix rejects setting writemostly and/or writebehind on resychronizing raid1 LVs.
Once we have status in the lvm2 metadata about the linear -> raid upconversion,
we may relax this constraint for other types of resynchronization
(e.g. for user requested "lvchange --resync ").
New lvchange-raid1-writemostly.sh test is added to the test suite.

Previously when lvremove tried to remove 'active' origin,
it had been asking for every 'snapshot' LV separately
and doing individual single snapshot removals first.
To be faster it now deactivates origin before removal
all connected snapshots.
This avoids multiple reloads of dm table for origin volume
which were unnecessary as origin was meant to be removed as well.
. Define a prototype for every lvm command.
. Match every user command with one definition.
. Generate help text and man pages from them.
The new file command-lines.in defines a prototype for every
unique lvm command. A unique lvm command is a unique
combination of: command name + required option args +
required positional args. Each of these prototypes also
includes the optional option args and optional positional
args that the command will accept, a description, and a
unique string ID for the definition. Any valid command
will match one of the prototypes.
Here's an example of the lvresize command definitions from
command-lines.in, there are three unique lvresize commands:
lvresize --size SizeMB LV
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync, --reportformat String, --resizefs,
--stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB, --poolmetadatasize SizeMB
OP: PV ...
ID: lvresize_by_size
DESC: Resize an LV by a specified size.
lvresize LV PV ...
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync,
--reportformat String, --resizefs, --stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB
ID: lvresize_by_pv
DESC: Resize an LV by specified PV extents.
FLAGS: SECONDARY_SYNTAX
lvresize --poolmetadatasize SizeMB LV_thinpool
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync,
--reportformat String, --stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB
OP: PV ...
ID: lvresize_pool_metadata_by_size
DESC: Resize a pool metadata SubLV by a specified size.
The three commands have separate definitions because they have
different required parameters. Required parameters are specified
on the first line of the definition. Optional options are
listed after OO, and optional positional args are listed after OP.
This data is used to generate corresponding command definition
structures for lvm in command-lines.h. usage/help output is also
auto generated, so it is always in sync with the definitions.
Every user-entered command is compared against the set of
command structures, and matched with one. An error is
reported if an entered command does not have the required
parameters for any definition. The closest match is printed
as a suggestion, and running lvresize --help will display
the usage for each possible lvresize command.
The prototype syntax used for help/man output includes
required --option and positional args on the first line,
and optional --option and positional args enclosed in [ ]
on subsequent lines.
command_name <required_opt_args> <required_pos_args>
[ <optional_opt_args> ]
[ <optional_pos_args> ]
Command definitions that are not to be advertised/suggested
have the flag SECONDARY_SYNTAX. These commands will not be
printed in the normal help output.
Man page prototypes are also generated from the same original
command definitions, and are always in sync with the code
and help text.
Very early in command execution, a matching command definition
is found. lvm then knows the operation being done, and that
the provided args conform to the definition. This will allow
lots of ad hoc checking/validation to be removed throughout
the code.
Each command definition can also be routed to a specific
function to implement it. The function is associated with
an enum value for the command definition (generated from
the ID string.) These per-command-definition implementation
functions have not yet been created, so all commands
currently fall back to the existing per-command-name
implementation functions.
Using per-command-definition functions will allow lots of
code to be removed which tries to figure out what the
command is meant to do. This is currently based on ad hoc
and complicated option analysis. When using the new
functions, what the command is doing is already known
from the associated command definition.
Remove allocate_pvs from raid_manip.c:_region_size_change_request() API
and lv_extend() using it added for temporary test purpose.

With recent commit d6a74025df using
INTERNAL_ERROR while cheking layer LV - it's been noticed mirror
logic currently doesn't do a correct thing during upconversion and
does a full-try instead of checking only allocator capabilities.
This leads to invalid usage of layer.
To keep existing code running before providing a fix, relax
INTERNAL_ERROR just an error and keep the 'code' running.
Once mirror code is fixed, these all check should be switched
to internal errors.
Show proper internal error for failing command when there are some
inconsitencies in sizes of LV and its layer instead of rather
meaningless error code 5.
(Could be hit i.e. if user tried to 'resize' cached LV and then
uncache such LV.)
During rework of resize code this validation check
has been lost (in my resize branch). Upstream
is still not supporting resize of any cache type LV
so needs to be prevented.
When we need to clear dirty cache content of cached LV, there
is table reload which usually is shortly followed by next metadata
change. However udev can't (as of now) process udev event
while device is 'suspended'.
So whenever sequence of 'suspend/resume/suspend' is needed,
we need to wait first for finishing of 'resume' processing before
starting next 'suspend'. Otherwise there is 'race' danger of triggering
unwantend umount by systemd as such event will trigger
SYSTEMD_READY=0 state for a moment for such changed device.
Such race is pretty ugly to trace so we may need to review more
sequencies for missing 'sync'.
(Other option is to enhnace 'udev' rules processing to avoid
such dramatic actions to be happening for suspended devices).
Add to commits 87117c2b25 and 0b8bf73a63 to avoid refreshing two
times altogether, thus avoiding issues related to clustered, remotely
activated RaidLV. Avoid need to repeat "lvchange --refresh RaidLV"
two times as a workaround to refresh a RaidLV. Fix handles removal
of temporary *-missing-* devices created for any missing segments
in RAID SubLVs during activation.
Because the kernel dm-raid target isn't able to handle transiently
failing devices properly we need
"[dm-devel][PATCH] dm raid: fix transient device failure processing"
as well.

Move individual segment validation to a separate function
executed for 'complete_vg'.
Move some 'extra' validation bits from 'raid' validation to global
segtype validation (so extending existing normal validation)
TODO: still some test are left to be moved.
Reduce some duplication in validation process - there are still
some left thought so still room for improving overal speed.
It could be actually better to use even cache origin in
read-only mode so there could no be some 'acidental'
change being done on this volume.
This however need further tools enhancment - where we would need
to handle whole subtree on 'lvchange -pr/-prw'.
Add this functionality to lvconvert:
'lvconvert --thin cachedLV --thinpool vg/poll'
Converts cachedLV to external origin (which will be read-only).
New thin volume is created in thinpool LV and it's using external
origin as source for unprovisioned chunks.
This conversion happens online (while volume is in use).
Thin LV remains fully writable.
Cached external origin no longer could be written so cache will be used
ONLY for read operations. For this limitation we require cache mode
to be writethrough (as writeback cannot write to read-only volumes).
When thinLV is later removed cached external origin is again
fully usable, just note, LV remain in 'read-only' mode.
When read-write is needed, 'lvchange -prw' has to be used.
Single external origin could be user by multiple thinLV in
multiple differen thin pool.
External origin could be reloaded via more locks.
It's actually even more complex then thin-pool,
as it may be active on more nodes for linear LVs
(and maybe even more types).
External origin is always read-only thus unmodifiable
device so there should not be a problem accesing it
through multiple nodes.
Also for thin-pool check first presence of active thin-pool.
FIXME:
It's not easy to detect on which nodes this device is active
Thus manipulation with such device may require checking every
node and it active state and refresh.
But since such setup is quite complex to prepare and use,
hopefully there are not user trying to 'explore' this usage yet.
To be ready to show status of cache volume, call the status
with layer. Layer is automatically detected in this case when
cache volume is used in 'layered' form (needs -real suffix).
Avoid printing misleading message about single dirty block.
Instead properly detect condition where the 'cleaner' policy
needs to be installed without 'overloading' dirty variable.
Also print warning if we would be clearing read-only volume.
(it really shouldn't happen).
External origin could be activated as stand-alone device.
When the last thin LV is removed, external origin is no longer
the external origin and it's layer property was dropped.
Ensure dm table is correct by reloading external origin
(when it's active).
Activation of raid has brough up also splitted image with tracing
(without taking lock for this).
So when raid is now activate - such image is not put into
table (with _rmeta). When user needs such device, just active it.
Commit 0690392040 revealed a problem
in raid metadata manipulation.
We do two operations in one table reload:
- raid leg/image extraction
- rename remaining raid legs
This should be made in separate steps. Otherwise we do an
uncorrectable table change on error path (leaving tables
for admin and dmsetup).
As a hotfix - restore the previous logic and use a single
new function _lv_update_and_reload_list which activates exclusively
extracted LVs on the list before resuming suspended raid LV.
This restore 'rename' functionality upon resume.
Also still preserve the 'origin_only' logic - although we know
it's not working properly for cluster and LV stacking.
Further fixes are needed.
backup is not 'tested' for success and also it should
actually happen just when command is finished.
We do not target to make backups with each inter-step
metadata change.
RAID is LV property

TODO: looks like halve of raid function is reloading

Fix order of operation when converting raid1 into old mirror.

Then directly convert raid1 into mirror with mirror_log.
This convertion now properly see as precommitted metadata
new 'mirror' and committed old 'raid' and is able to
preload all LVs.
Drop LV from passed API arg - it's always segment being checked.
Also use_layer is now in full control of lv_info_with_seg_status().
It decides which device needs to be checked to get 'the most info'.
TODO: future version should be able to expose status from
In case any SubLV of a RaidLV transiently fails, it needs
two "lvchange --refresh RaidLV" runs to get it to fully
operational mode again. Reason being, that lvm reloads all
targets for the RaidLV tree but doesn't resume the SubLVs
until after the whole tree has been reloaded in the first
refresh run. Thus the live mapping table of the SubLVs
still point to an "error" mapping and the dm-raid target
can't retrieve any superblock from the MetaLV(s) in processing
the constructor during this preload thus not discovering the
again accessible SubLVs. In the second run, the SubLV targets
map proper (meta)data, hence the constructor discovers those
fine now.
Solve by resuming the SubLVs of the RaidLV before
preloading the respective top-level RaidLV target.
Resolves: rhbz1399844
Avoid code duplication and use exiting commonly used
lv_update_and_reload() function.
There is still one place left where mirror is doing strange
double suspend call - needs there more thinking what's wrong with
that code.
When lvconvert adds a new leg - it's doing it free 'temporary' image
layer - however this temporary 'internal' mirror is also MIRRORED LV.
But the status bit was not properly transfered through layer.
Instead of clearing multiple rmeta device with sequential activation
process and waiting for udev for every _rmeta device separately,
activate all _rmeta devices first and then clear them and deactivate
afterwards.
Also update some tracing messages.
When anyhing goes wrong during clearing process, always try to
deactivate as much _rmeta devices as possible before fail.
(Automatic) repair may not be allowed during the initial sync of an upconverted
linear LV, because the data on the failing, primary leg hasn't been completely
synchronized to the N-1 other legs of the raid1 LV (replacing failed legs during
repair involves discontinuing access to any replaced legs data, thus preventing
data recovery on the primary leg e.g. via dd_rescue).
Even though repair would not cause data loss when adding legs to a fully synced
raid1 LV, we don't have information yet defining this state yet (e.g. a raid1
LV flag telling the fully synchronized status before any legs were added),
hence can't automatically decide to allow to repair.
If nonetheless a repair on a non-synced raid1 LVs is intended, the "--force"

Check for dm-raid target version with non-standard raid4 mapping expecting the dedicated
parity device in the last rather than the first slot and prohibit to create, activate or
convert to such LVs from striped/raid0* or vice-versa in order to avoid data corruption.
Add related tests to lvconvert-raid-takeover.sh
Resolves: rhbz1388962
On conversions between striped/raid0* and raid4, the kernel expects
the dedicated raid4 parity SubLVs in the first segment area rather than
in the last it's been allocated to, thus the data mapping ain't proper.
Enhance lvconvert (lib/metadata/raid_manip.c) to shift the dedicated
parity SubLVs on conversions from striped/raid0* to raid4 and vice-versa.
In case of raid0_meta -> raid4 where the MD raid0 personality already has
stored RAID array device positions in the superblocks, the MetaLVs have to
be cleared so that the kernel doesn't fail validating the array positions
after lvm has shifted them up by one.
Add more tests to lvconvert-raid-takeover.sh including one to check for
mapping flaws by converting a created raid4 with filesystem -> striped
and fsck it.
Whilst on it:
- add missing direct striped -> raid4 conversion to the takeover array
to avoid an intermim conversion from striped -> raid0*
- clean up the takeover array
- allow lvconvert to actually call lv_raid_convert() on all takeover requests
in order to check parameters and display messages provided by takeover
functions rather than just "...not supported" from within lvconvert
- fix a typo

Works if the pool is inactive.
Activation code doesn't notice a new raid dependency in on-disk metadata
when a thin LV is already active.

The dm-raid target now rejects device rebuild requests during ongoing
resynchronization thus causing 'lvconvert --repair ...' to fail with
a kernel error message. This regresses with respect to failing automatic
repair via the dmeventd RAID plugin in case raid_fault_policy="allocate"
is configured in lvm.conf as well.
Previously allowing such repair request required cancelling the
resynchronization of any still accessible DataLVs, hence reasoning
potential data loss.
Patch allows the resynchronization of still accessible DataLVs to
finish up by rejecting any 'lvconvert --repair ...'.
It enhances the dmeventd RAID plugin to be able to automatically repair
by postponing the repair after synchronization ended.
More tests are added to lvconvert-rebuild-raid.sh to cover single
and multiple DataLV failure cases for the different RAID levels.

Commit 199697accf rerouted funtion
for priting cache volume origin to lvm2app app function - which
however had a bug. So restore the original functionality
and print correct LV as cache origin LV.
Unconditionally guard there is at least 1/4 of metadata volume
free (<16Mib) or 4MiB - whichever value is smaller.
In case there is not enough free space do not let operation proceed and
recommend thin-pool metadata resize (in case user has not
enabled autoresize, manual 'lvextend --poolmetadatasize' is needed).
In the case there is no active thin volume, report thin pool
as lock holder. This fixed function like lvextend
which either expecte lock holder LV is some active thin
or 'possibly' inactive thin pool.
The existing code doesn't understand that mirror logs should cling to
parallel LVs (like extending them) instead of avoiding them.
As a quick workaround to avoid lvcreate failures, hard-code
--alloc normal for mirror logs even if the rest of the allocation
used a stricter policy.

Reinstantiate reporting of metadata percent usage for cache volumes.
Also show the same percentage with hidden cache-pool LV.
This regression was caused by optimization for a single-ioctl in
2.02.155.
Introduce 'hard limit' for max number of cache chunks.
When cache target operates with too many chunks (>10e6).
When user is aware of related possible troubles he
may increase the limit in lvm.conf.
Also verbosely inform user about possible solution.
Code works for both lvcreate and lvconvert.
Lvconvert fully supports change of chunk_size when caching LV
(and validates for compatible settings).
'pvmove -n name pv1 pv2' allows to collocate multiple RAID SubLVs
on pv2 (e.g. results in collocated raidlv_rimage_0 and raidlv_rimage_1),
thus causing loss of resilence and/or performance of the RaidLV.
Fix this pvmove flaw leading to potential data loss in case of PV failure
by preventing any SubLVs from collocation on any PVs of the RaidLV.
Still allow to collocate any DataLVs of a RaidLV with their sibling MetaLVs
and vice-versa though (e.g. raidlv_rmeta_0 on pv1 may still be moved to pv2
already holding raidlv_rimage_0).
Because access to the top-level RaidLV name is needed,
promote local _top_level_lv_name() from raid_manip.c
to global top_level_lv_name().

Adding MetaLVs to given DataLVs (e.g. raid0 -> raid0_meta takeover),
_avoid_pvs_with_other_images_of_lv() was missing code to prohibit
allocation when called with a just allocated MetaLV to prohibit
collaocation of the next allocated MetaLV on the same PV.

Enforce mirror/raid0/1/10/4/5/6 type specific maximum images when
creating LVs or converting them from mirror <-> raid1.
Document those maxima in the lvcreate/lvconvert man pages.
- resolves rhbz1366060
'lvchange --resync LV' or 'lvchange --syncaction repair LV' request the
RAID layout specific parity blocks in raid4/5/6 to be recreated or the
mirrored blocks to be copied again from the master leg/copy for raid1/10,
thus not allowing a rebuild of a particular PV.
Introduce repeatable option '--[raid]rebuild PV' to allow to request
rebuilds of specific PVs in a RaidLV which are known to contain corrupt
data (e.g. rebuild a raid1 master leg).
Add test lvchange-rebuild-raid.sh to test/shell doing rebuild
variations on raid1/10 and 5; add aux function check_status_chars
to support the new test.

introduced with commit 8f62b7bfe5 rely on complete
defintions of the relations between the LVs of a VG.
Hence only run these checks when the complete_vg flag
is set on calls to check_lv_segments().
lvconvert failed in test lvconvert-thin-raid.sh when
calling check_lv_segments() from _read_segments() without
providing a complete definition.
General RAID and RAID segment type specific checks are added
to merge.c. New static _check_raid_seg() is called on each segment
of a RaidLV (which have just one) from check_lv_segments().
New checks caught some unititialized segment members
which are addressed here as well:
- initialize seg->region_size to 0 in lvcreate.c for raid0/raid0_meta
- initialize list seg->origin_list in lv_manip.c
When volume was lvconvert-ed to a thin-volume with external origin,
then in case thin-pool was in non-zeroing mode
it's been printing WARNING about not zeroing thin volume - but
this is wanted and expected - so nothing to warn about.
So in this particular use case WARNING needs to be suppressed.
Adding parameter support for lvcreate_params.
So now lvconvert creates 'normal thin LV' in read-only mode
(so any read will 'return 0' for a moment)
then deactivate regular thin LV and reacreate in 'final R/RW' mode
thin LV with external origin and activate again.
Before, the automatic update from older to newer version of PV extension
header happened within vg_write call. This may have caused problems under
some circumnstances where there's a code in between vg_write and vg_commit
which may have failed. In such situation, we reverted precommitted metadata
and put back the state to working version of VG metadata.
However, we don't have revert for PV write operation at the moment. So
if we updated PV headers already and we reverted vg_write due to failure
in subsequent code (before vg_commit), we ended up with lost VG metadata
(because old metadata pointers got reset by the PV write operation).
To minimize problematic situations here, we should put vg_write and
vg_commit that is done after PV header rewrites as close to each
other as possible.
This patch moves the automatic PV header rewrite for new extension
header part from vg_write to _vg_read where it's done the same way
as we do any other VG repairs if detected during VG read operation
(under VG write lock).
Any failing stripes in raid0/raid0_meta type LVs cause data loss,
thus replacement via 'lvconvert --replace...' does not make sense.
Patch prohibits replacement on raid0/raid0_meta LVs.

Commit ca878a3426 changed behavior
or resize operation. Later the code has been futher changed
to skip fs resize completely when size of LV is already matching
and finaly at the most recent resize changeset for resize the
check for matching size has been eliminated as well so we ended
with a request call to resize fs to 0 size in some cases.
This commit reoders some test so the prompt happens just once before
resize of possibly 2 related volumes.
Also extra test for having LV already given size is added, and
whole metadata update is skipped for this case as the only
result would be an increment of seqno.
However the filesystem is still resized when requested,
so if the LV has some size and the resize is resolved to
the same size, the filesystem resize is called so in case FS
would not match, the resize will happen.
A livelock occurs on extension in lv_manip when adjusting the region size,
which doesn't apply to any raid0/raid0_meta LVs (these don't have a bitmap).
Fix by prohibiting the region size adjustment on any such LVs.

Apply the same idea as vg_update.
Before doing the VG remove on disk, invalidate
the VG in lvmetad. After the VG is removed,
remove the VG in lvmetad. If the command fails
after removing the VG on disk, but before removing
the VG metadata from lvmetad, then a subsequent
command will see the INVALID flag and not use the
stale metadata from lvmetad.
Previously, a command sent lvmetad new VG metadata in vg_commit().
In vg_commit(), devices are suspended, so any memory allocation
done by the command while sending to lvmetad, or by lvmetad while
updating its cache could deadlock if memory reclaim was triggered.
Now lvmetad is updated in unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed.
The new method for updating VG metadata in lvmetad is in two phases:
1. In vg_write(), before devices are suspended, the command sends
lvmetad a short message ("set_vg_info") telling it what the new
VG seqno will be. lvmetad sees that the seqno is newer than
the seqno of its cached VG, so it sets the INVALID flag for the
cached VG. If sending the message to lvmetad fails, the command
fails before the metadata is committed and the change is not made.
If sending the message succeeds, vg_commit() is called.
2. In unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed, the command sends
lvmetad the standard vg_update message with the new metadata.
lvmetad sees that the seqno in the new metadata matches the
seqno it saved from set_vg_info, and knows it has the latest
copy, so it clears the INVALID flag for the cached VG.
If a command fails between 1 and 2 (after committing the VG on disk,
but before sending lvmetad the new metadata), the cached VG retains
the INVALID flag in lvmetad. A subsequent command will read the
cached VG from lvmetad, see the INVALID flag, ignore the cached
copy, read the VG from disk instead, update the lvmetad copy
with the latest copy from disk, (this clears the INVALID flag
in lvmetad), and use the correct VG metadata for the command.
(This INVALID mechanism already existed for use by lvmlockd.)
Add code to support more LVs to be resized through a same code path
using a single lvresize_params struct.
(Now it's used for thin-pool metadata resize,
next user will be snapshot virtual resize).
Update code to adjust percent amount resize for use_policies.
Properly activate inactive thin-pool in case of any pool resize
as the command should not 'deffer' this operation to next activation.
Use common API design and pass just LV pointer to lv_manip.c functions.
Read cmd struct via lv->vg->cmd when needed.
Also do not try to return EINVALID_CMD_LINE error when we
have already openned VG - this error code can only be returned before
locking VG.
