This makes it easier to check against the fields (following patches for
report selection) and check whether size units are allowed or not
with the field value.
Warn when --udevcookie/DM_UDEV_COOKIE is used with 'dmsetup remove --force'.
When command is doing multiple ioctl operations on a single device,
it may invoke udev activity, that is colliding with further ioctl commands.
The result of such operation becomes unpredictable.
Use of --retry could partially help...
Send error message on stdout, since after _display_info_long()
command return errors.
Patch makes consistent behavior for command:
dmsetup info -c non-existing-dev
&
dmsetup info non-existing-dev
Now both commands report error on stderr when they return error status
for non-existing device.
Recent kernels allow messages to respond with a string.
Add dm_task_get_message_response() to libdevmapper to perform some
basic sanity checks and return this.
Have 'dmsetup message' display any response.
DM statistics will make extensive use of this.
(From Mikulas.)
This was a regression introduced with e33fd978a8
(libdm v1.02.68/lvm2 v2.02.89) with the introduction of new output
fields blkdevname and blkdevs_used for ls and deps dmsetup commands.
A new common '_process_options' fn was added with that commit, but the
fn was called prematurely which then broke processing of
'dmsetup splitname -o' which should implicitly use '-c' option
and this was failing after the commit:
alatyr/~ $ dmsetup splitname -o lv_name /dev/mapper/vg_data-test
Option not recognised: lv_name
Couldn't process command line.
The '-c' had to be used for correct operation:
alatyr/~ $ dmsetup splitname -c -o lv_name /dev/mapper/vg_data-test
LV
test
Now fixed to work as it did before:
alatyr/~ $ dmsetup splitname -o lv_name /dev/mapper/vg_data-test
LV
test
Compared to names, UUIDs can't be renamed once they are created
for a device. The 'mangle' command will just issue an error message
about a need for manual intervention in this case - reactivating the
device (remove + create) does the job as the defualt mangling mode
used is "auto" and that will assign a correct mangled form the UUID.
With latest changes in the udev, some deprecated functions were removed
from libudev amongst which there was the "udev_get_dev_path" function
we used to compare a device directory used in udev and directore set in
libdevmapper. The "/dev" is hardcoded in udev now (udev version >= 183).
Amongst other changes and from packager's point of view, it's also
important to note that the libudev development library ("libudev-devel")
could now be a part of the systemd development library ("systemd-devel")
because of the udev + systemd merge.
Just to make it clearer since there is the "dmsetup info -c -o blkdevname"
as well that shows the "block device name for this mapping", having a
"BlkDevName" header on output.
It's a bit confusing then if the "dmsetup info -c -o devs_used,blkdevs_used"
is named with a plural "DevNames"/"BlkDevNames" but at the same time having
a totally different meaning than the singular form "BlkDevName".
DevNames --> DevNamesUsed
BlkDevNames --> BlkDevNamesUsed
...makes it much more comprehensible.
Auto mode can't deal with multiple mangled names. We can do that while working
in hex mode, but in auto mode, this would lead to device name ambiguity.
Add 'blkdevname' and 'blkdevs_used' field to dmsetup info -c -o.
Add 'blkdevname' option to dmsetup ls --tree to see block device names.
Add '-o options' to dmsetup deps and ls to select device name type on output.
Defer the test of the function return value after the string memory is released.
Otherwise in this error path the string would present memory leak.
(Thought in this case we are already out of memory...)
With recent update of dm_report_field_string() API call to accept
completely const objects - we no longer need loose constness here
and keep it forwarding.
Make configurable default behaviour how to deal with device node creates.
With udev system natural options should be 'resume'.
For older systems where user expect there is node in /dev/mapper immediately
after dmsetup create --notable - use 'create'
FIXME:
Code needs fixing passing this flag through udev cookie.
Add new function dm_task_set_add_node() to select between 2 types
of node creation in device directory.
DM_ADD_NODE_ON_RESUME is now default and ensures node is created on
resume. Old original behavior is accessible with DM_ADD_NODE_ON_CREATE.
In this case node would be created during dmsetup create --notable.
For the user 2 new options for dmsetup create are added:
[{--addnodeonresume | --addnodeoncreate }]
Properly working node creation on resume is needed for proper operation
stacking and ability to correctly check in which state the device should
after whole udev transation.
Add test for NULL before passing uuid as src argument to memcpy.
As memcpy function is declared as function not accepting NULL.
Though we pass NULL only with zero length so this patch presents
no functional change to the code.
This rule appeared in udev v152 and it helps us to support spurious events
where we didn't have any flags set (events originated in udevadm trigger
or the watch rule). These flags are important to direct the rule application.
Now, with the help of this rule, we can regenerate old udev db content.
To implement this correctly, we need to flag all proper DM udev events with
DM_UDEV_PRIMARY_SOURCE_FLAG. That happens automatically for all ioctls
generating events originated in libdevmapper.
This prevents some confusion when libudev was not found so udev_sync was disabled
automatically. Configure was successful though giving only a tiny warning.
Also, if "dmsetup udevcreatecookie" is used, never return 0x000000 as a result if
udev is not running and keep the output blank.
- add DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK udev flag to rely on udev only
- export dm_udev_create_cookie function to create new cookies on demand
- add --udevcookie, udevcreatecookie and udevreleasecookie for dmsetup
(to support "udev transactions" where one cookie value can be used for
several dmsetup calls)
- don't use DM_UDEV_DISABLE_CHECKING env. var. anymore and set the state
automatically (based on udev and libdevmapper dev path comparison)
Sometimes it is really needed to switch off udev checking and the warnings we show when
we detect that udev has not done its job right - the messages like "Udev should have done
this and that. Falling back to direct node creation/removal. " etc.
This would be especially handy while setting DM_DEV_DIR env var that could be set to a
different location than standard /dev (udev can't create nodes/symlinks out of that one
directory that is configured into udevd). The exact same situation happens while we're
running our tests.
This provides better support for environments where udev rules are installed
but udev_sync is not compiled in (however, using udev_sync is highly
recommended). It also provides consistent and expected functionality even
when '--noudevsync' option is used.
There is still requirement for kernel >= 2.6.31 for the flags to work though
(it uses DM cookies to pass the flags into the kernel and set them in udev
event environment that we can read in udev rules).
- we have these levels when the udev rules are processed:
10-dm.rules --> [11-dm-<subsystem>.rules] --> [12-dm-permissions.rules] -->
13-dm-disk.rules --> [...all the other foreign rules...] --> 95-dm-notify.rules
- each level can be disabled now by
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_{DM, SUBSYSTEM, DISK, OTHER}_RULES_FLAG
- add DM_UDEV_DISABLE_DM_RULES_FLAG to disable 10-dm.rules
- add DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG to disable all the other (non-dm) rules.
We cutoff these rules by using the 'last_rule', so this one should really be
used with great care and in well-founded situations. We use this for lvm's
hidden and layer devices now.
- add a parameter for add_dev_node, rm_dev_node and rename_dev_node so it's
possible to switch on/off udev checks
- use DM_UDEV_DISABLE_DM_RULES_FLAG and DM_UDEV_DISABLE_SUBSYSTEM_RULES_FLAG
if there's no cookie set and we have resume, remove and rename ioctl.
This could happen when someone uses the libdevmapper that is compiled with
udev_sync but the software does not make use of it. This way we can switch
off the rules and fallback to libdevmapper node creation so there's no
udev/libdevmapper race.
