b5f62a143d metadata: Eliminate redundant nested VG metadata
Only lv_committed() now uses vg->vg_committed and it appears redundant
if its contents match the enclosing VG so don't waste cycles creating it
when that's known to be true when no write lock is held so the struct
won't get modified.

598fcccf45 persistent filter: Skip import before rescan
The persistent filter should not be imported by any command that doesn't
use it so take addtional note of REQUIRES_FULL_LABEL_SCAN (for vgrename)
and introduce IGNORE_PERSISTENT_FILTER for vgscan and pvscan.

14d0b0bbdd clvmd: supress ENOENT error on testing connection
In HA cluster, we have "clvm" resource agent to manage clvmd daemon.
The agent invokes clvmd like: "clvmd -T90 -d0", which  always prints
a scaring error message:

"""
local socket: connect failed: No such file or directory
"""

When specifed with "-d" option, clvmd tries to check if an instance
of the clvmd daemon is already running through a testing connection.
The connect() will fail with this ENOENT error in such case, so supress
the error message in such case.

TODO: add missing error reaction code - since ofter log_error, program
is not supposed to continue running (log_error() is for reporting
stopping problems).

52fd66210b metadata: Avoid accessing ignored metadata.
When an ignored metadata area gets flagged for use again, make sure the
code doesn't try to parse its old metadata.  Firstly by trying to detect
this situation and skipping the read (while still remembering the
position reached in the circular buffer), and secondly by clearing the
invalid live metadata location on disk as a precaution when subsequently
writing out the precommitted metadata.

Problems showed up when a metadata area in one VG got moved to
another VG in ignored state (still holding metadata for the original
VG) and then later got brought into use in the new VG - only the header
should be read in this case, not any of the metadata content.

df3ff32fc0 lvcreate: skip checking for name restriction for caching
lvcreate supports a 'conversion' when caching LV.
This normally worked fine, however in case passed LV was
thin-pool's data LV with suffix _tdata we have failed to early.

As the easiest fix looks dropping validation of name when
caching type is select - such name check will happen later
once the VG is opened again and properly detect if the LV
with protected name already exists and can be converted,
or will be rejected as ambigiuous operation requiring user
to specify  --type cache | --type cache-pool.

e02e5b0c5b activation: fix activation lock
Activation lock has a primary purpose to serialize locking of individual
LV in case there is no other protecting mechanism for parallel
execution.

However in the case an activated LV is composed from several other LVs,
noone should be able to manipulate with those LVs as well.

This patch add a very 'naive' global VG activation locking in this case.
In the future we may introduce smarter function detecting minimal closed
graph components if this will appear as bottleneck

Patch checks if the  VG Write lock is held - in this case we do not
need any more locking - command has exclusive access to VG.

In case we have clustered VG and we are activating an LV which does not
need other LVs - we also do not need any more locks.

In all other cases take respective lock - for single LV - use lvid,
for complex LVs  use vgname.

486ed10848 vgmerge: Fix intermediate metadata corruption
vgmerge suffers from a similar problem to the one fixed in commit
8146548d25 ("vgsplit: Fix intermediate
metadata corruption.")

When merging, splitting or renaming VGs, use a new PV status flag
PV_MOVED_VG to mark the PVs that hold metadata with the old VG name and
use this to provide PV-level granularity instead of incorrectly assuming
all PVs in the VG are the same.

8146548d25 vgsplit: Fix intermediate metadata corruption.
Changing the VG of a PV uses the same on-disk mechanism as vgrename.
This relies on recognising both the old and new VG names.  Prior to this
patch the vgsplit code incorrectly provided the new VG name twice
instead of the old and new ones.  This lead the low-level mechanism not
to recognise the device as already belonging to a VG and so paying no
attention to the location of its existing metadata, sometimes partly
overwriting it and then later trying to read the corrupt metadata and
issuing a checksum error.

f2ee0e7aca pvmove: require LV name in a shared VG
In a shared VG, only allow pvmove with a named LV,
so that only PE's used by the LV will be moved.
The LV is then activated exclusively, ensuring that
the PE's being moved are not used from another host.

Previously, pvmove was mistakenly allowed on a full PV.
This won't work when LVs using that PV are active on
other hosts.

3c978f7bcc pvcreate: fix check for 2nd mda at end of disk fits if using pvcreate --restorefile
Fix code checking that the 2nd mda which is at the end of disk really
fits the available free space and avoid any DA and MDA interleaving when
we already have DA preallocated. This mainly applies when we're restoring
a PV from VG backup using pvcreate --restorefile where we may already have
some DA preallocated - this means the PV was in a VG before with already
allocated space from it (the LVs were created). Hence we need to avoid
stepping into DA - the MDA can never ever be inside in such case!

The code responsible for this calculation was already in
_text_pv_add_metadata_area fn, but it had a bug in the calculation where
we subtracted one more sector by mistake and then the code could still
incorrectly allocate the MDA inside existing DA. The patch also renames
the variable in the code so it doesn't confuse us in future.

Also, if the 2nd mda doesn't fit, don't silently continue with just 1
MDA (at the start of the disk). If 2nd mda was requested and we can't
create that due to unavailable space, error out correctly (the patch
also adds a test to shell/pvcreate-operation.sh for this case).

for md-core - but we may need more generic time-limited reload
frequency for raid devices.

f2eda36cfa clvmd: Fix client list corruption
Centralise editing of the client list into _add_client() and
_del_client().  Introduce _local_client_count to track the size of the
list for debugging purposes.  Simplify and standardise the various ways
the list gets walked.

While processing one element of the list in main_loop(),
cleanup_zombie() may be called and remove a different element, so make
sure main_loop() refreshes its list state on return.  Prior to this
patch, the list edits for clients disappearing could race against the
list edits for new clients connecting and corrupt the list and cause a
variety of segfaults.

An easy way to trigger such failures was by repeatedly running shell
commands such as:
  lvs &; lvs &; lvs &;...;killall -9 lvs; lvs &; lvs &;...

Situations that occasionally lead to the failures can be spotted by
looking for 'EOF' with 'inprogress=1' in the clvmd debug logs.

as this is now a valid pool and we mostly want users to define
these settings when actually really caching a LV.

58a9f88b8c cache: drop usage of origin_only
Since cache LV can be a stacked device, there is no real reason
trying to use slight optimised tree for origin_only cache reload
(it could be even wrongly implemented in this case).

We can easily go with stardard tree load here.

ca9e6cec61 cache: make syncing abortable by user
When user runs command like 'lvconvert --splitcache' the operation
might be actually either slow or not making any progress in kernel,
so lets give user a chance to abort such operation.

When user press 'Ctrl+C' device table is restored to pre-flushing state.

59d646167f raid: report percent with segtype info
Enhance reporting code, so it does not need to do 'extra' ioctl to
get 'status' of normal raid and provide percentage directly.

When we have 'merging' snapshot into raid origin, we still need to get
this secondary number with extra status call - however, since  'raid'
is always a single segment LV - we may skip 'copy_percent' call as
we directly know the percent and also with better precision.

NOTE: for mirror we still base reported number on the percetage of
transferred extents which might get quite imprecisse if big size
of extent is used while volume itself is smaller as reporting jump
steps are much bigger the actual reported number provides.

2nd.NOTE: raid lvs line report already requires quite a few extra status
calls for the same device - but fix will be need slight code improval.

d34d2068dd lvconvert: Don't require a 'force' option during RAID repair.
Previously, we were treating non-RAID to RAID up-converts as a "resync"
operation.  (The most common example being 'linear -> RAID1'.)  RAID to
RAID up-converts or rebuilds of specific RAID images are properly treated
as a "recover" operation.

Since we were treating some up-convert operations as "resync", it was
possible to have scenarios where data corruption or data loss were
possibilities if the RAID hadn't been able to sync completely before a
loss of the primary source devices.  In order to ensure that the user took
the proper precautions in such scenarios, we required a '--force' option
to be present.  Unfortuneately, the force option was rendered useless
because there was no way to distiguish the failure state of a potentially
destructive repair from a nominal one - making the '--force' option a
requirement for any RAID1 repair!

We now treat non-RAID to RAID up-converts properly as "recover" operations.
This eliminates the scenarios that can potentially cause data loss or
data corruption; and this eliminates the need for the '--force' requirement.
This patch removes the requirement to specify '--force' for RAID repairs.

c87907dcd5 lvconvert: linear -> raid1 upconvert should cause "recover" not "resync"
Two of the sync actions performed by the kernel (aka MD runtime) are
"resync" and "recover".  The "resync" refers to when an entirely new array
is going through the process of initializing (or resynchronizing after an
unexpected shutdown).  The "recover" is the process of initializing a new
member device to the array.  So, a brand new array with all new devices
will undergo "resync".  An array with replaced or added sub-LVs will undergo
"recover".

These two states are treated very differently when failures happen.  If any
device is lost or replaced while "resync", there are no worries.  This is
because any writes created from the inception of the array have occurred to
all the devices and can be safely recovered.  Even though non-initialized
portions will still be resync'ed with uninitialized data, it is ok.  However,
if a pre-existing device is lost (aka, the original linear device in a
linear -> raid1 convert) during a "recover", data loss can be the result.
Thus, writes are errored by the kernel and recovery is halted.  The failed
device must be restored or removed.  This is the correct behavior.

Unfortunately, we were treating an up-convert from linear as a "resync"
when we should have been treating it as a "recover".  This patch
removes the special case for linear upconvert.  It allows each new image
sub-LV to be marked with a rebuild flag and treats the array as 'in-sync'.
This has the correct effect of causing the upconvert to be treated as a
"recover" rather than a "resync".  There is no need to flag these two states
differently in LVM metadata, because they are already considered differently
by the kernel RAID metadata.  (Any activation/deactivation will properly
resume the "recover" process and not a "resync" process.)

We make this behavior change based on the presense of dm-raid target
version 1.9.0+.

48ffb996c5 thin: disallow creation of too big thin pools
When a combination of thin-pool chunk size and thin-pool data size
goes beyond addressable limit, such volume creation is directly
prohibited.

Maximum usable thin-pool size is calculated with use of maximal support
metadata size (even when it's created smaller) and given chunk-size.
If the value data size is found to be too big, the command reports
error and operation fails.

Previously thin-pool was created however lots of thin-pool data LV was
not usable and this space in VG has been wasted.

c98a25aab1 print warning about in-use orphans
Warn about a PV that has the in-use flag set, but appears in
the orphan VG (no VG was found referencing it.)

There are a number of conditions that could lead to this:

. The PV was created with no mdas and is used in a VG with
  other PVs (with metadata) that have not yet appeared on
  the system.  So, no VG metadata is found by lvm which
  references the in-use PV with no mdas.

. vgremove could have failed after clearing mdas but
  before clearing the in-use flag.  In this case, the
  in-use flag needs to be manually cleared on the PV.

. The PV may have damanged/unrecognized VG metadata
  that lvm could not read.

. The PV may have no mdas, and the PVs with the metadata
  may have damaged/unrecognized metadata.

A PV holding VG metadata that lvm can't understand
(e.g. damaged, checksum error, unrecognized flag)
will appear as an in-use orphan, and will be cleared
by this repair code.  Disable this repair until the
code can keep track of these problematic PVs, and
distinguish them from actual in-use orphans.

4141409eb0 flags: add segtype flag support
Switch METADATA_FORMAT flag usage to be stored via segtype
instead of 'status' flag which appeared to cause major
incompatibility troubles.

For backward compatiblity segtype flags are still accepted also
via 'status' bits which were used from version 2.02.169 so metadata
saved by this newer lvm2 version should still work nicely, although
new save version will no longer work on this older lvm2 version.

0299a7af1e flags: add read and print of segtype flag
Allow storing LV status bits with segment type name field.
Switching to this since this field has better support for compatibility
with older version of lvm2 - since such unknown segtype will not cause
complete invisiblity of metadata from older lvm2 code - just the
particular LV will become unusable with unknown type of segment.

5fe07d3574 lvconvert: enhance automatic settings of possible (raid) LV types
Offer possible interim LV types and display their aliases
(e.g. raid5 and raid5_ls) for all conversions between
striped and any raid LVs in case user requests a type
not suitable to direct conversion.

E.g. running "lvconvert --type raid5 LV" on a striped
LV will replace raid5 aka raid5_ls (rotating parity)
with raid5_n (dedicated parity on last image).
User is asked to repeat the lvconvert command to get to the
requested LV type (raid5 aka raid5_ls in this example)
when such replacement occurs.

cf73f6cf61 lvcreate: Fix mirror percentage size calculations.
Trap cases where the percentage calculation currently leads to an empty
LV and the message:

  Internal error: Unable to create new logical volume with no extents

Additionally convert the calculated number of extents from physical to
logical when creating a mirror using a percentage that is based on
Physical Extents.  Otherwise a command like 'lvcreate -m3 -l80%FREE'
can never leave any free space.

This brings the behaviour closer to that of lvresize.
(A further patch is needed to cover all the raid types.)

80900dcf76 metadata: Fix metadata repair when devs still missing.
_check_reappeared_pv() incorrectly clears the MISSING_PV flags of
PVs with unknown devices.
While one caller avoids passing such PVs into the function, the other
doesn't.  Move the check inside the function so it's not forgotten.

Without this patch, if the normal VG reading code tries to repair
inconsistent metadata while there is an unknown PV, it incorrectly
considers the missing PVs no longer to be missing and produces
incorrect 'pvs' output omitting the missing PV, for example.

Easy reproducer:
Create a VG with 3 PVs pv1, pv2, pv3.
Hide pv2.
Run vgreduce --removemissing.
Reinstate the hidden PV pv2 and at the same time hide a different PV
pv3.
Run 'pvs' - incorrect output.
Run 'pvs' again - correct output.

Using any arg with a command name in a script file
would cause the command to fail.

The name of the script file being executed was being passed
to lvm_register_commands() and define_commands(), which
prevented command defs from being defined (simple commands
were still being defined only by name which was enough for those
to still work when run trivially with no args).
