lvm dumpconfig [--type {current|default|missing|new}] [--atversion] [--validate]
This patch adds above-mentioned args to lvm dumpconfig and it maps them
to creation and writing out a configuration tree of a specific type
(see also previous commit):
- current maps to CFG_TYPE_CURRENT
- default maps to CFG_TYPE_DEFAULT
- missing maps to CFG_TYPE_MISSING
- new maps to CFG_TYPE_NEW
If --type is not defined, dumpconfig defaults to "--type current"
which is the original behaviour of dumpconfig before all these changes.
The --validate option just validates current configuration tree
(lvm.conf/--config) and it writes a simple status message:
"LVM configuration valid" or "LVM configuration invalid"
Configuration checking is initiated during config load/processing
(_process_config fn) which is part of the command context
creation/refresh.
This patch also defines 5 types of trees that could be created from
the configuration definition (config_settings.h), the cfg_def_tree_t:
- CFG_DEF_TREE_CURRENT that denotes a tree of all the configuration
nodes that are explicitly defined in lvm.conf/--config
- CFG_DEF_TREE_MISSING that denotes a tree of all missing
configuration nodes for which default valus are used since they're
not explicitly used in lvm.conf/--config
- CFG_DEF_TREE_DEFAULT that denotes a tree of all possible
configuration nodes with default values assigned, no matter what
the actual lvm.conf/--config is
- CFG_DEF_TREE_NEW that denotes a tree of all new configuration nodes
that appeared in given version
- CFG_DEF_TREE_COMPLETE that denotes a tree of the whole configuration
tree that is used in LVM2 (a combination of CFG_DEF_TREE_CURRENT +
CFG_DEF_TREE_MISSING). This is not implemented yet, it will be added
later...
The function that creates the definition tree of given type:
struct dm_config_tree *config_def_create_tree(struct config_def_tree_spec *spec);
Where the "spec" specifies the tree type to be created:
struct config_def_tree_spec {
cfg_def_tree_t type; /* tree type */
uint16_t version; /* tree at this LVM2 version */
int ignoreadvanced; /* do not include advanced configs */
int ignoreunsupported; /* do not include unsupported configs */
};
This tree can be passed to already existing functions that write
the tree on output (like we already do with cmd->cft).
There is a new lvm.conf section called "config" with two new options:
- config/checks which enables/disables checking (enabled by default)
- config/abort_on_errors which enables/disables aborts on any type of
mismatch found in the config (disabled by default)
Add support for configuration checking - type checking and recognition
of registered configuration settings that LVM2 understands and also
check the structure of the configuration. Log error on any mismatch
found.
A hash over all allowed configuration paths is created which helps
with matching the exact configuration (lvm.conf/--config tree) with
the configuration item definition from config_settings.h in an
efficient and one-step way.
Two more helper flags are introduced for each configuration definition
item:
- CFG_USED which marks the item as being used (lvm.conf/--config)
This helps with identifying missing configuration options
(and for which defaults were used) when traversing the tree later.
- CFG_VALID which denotes that the item has already been checked and
it was found valid. This improves performance, so if the check
is called once again on the same tree which was not reloaded, we
can just return the state from previous check (with a possibility
to force the check if needed).
The new function that config.h exports and which is going to be used
to perform the configuration checking is:
int config_def_check(struct cmd_context *cmd, int force, int skip, int suppress_messages)
...which is exported internally via config.h.
For example, the old call and reference:
find_config_tree_str(cmd, "devices/dir", DEFAULT_DEV_DIR)
...now becomes:
find_config_tree_str(cmd, devices_dir_CFG)
So we're referring to the named configuration ID instead
of passing the configuration path and the default value
is taken from central config definition in config_settings.h
automatically.
This patch adds basic structures that encapsulate the config_settings.h
content - it takes each item and puts it in structures:
- cfg_def_type_t to define config item type
- cfg_def_value_t to define config item (default) value
- flags used to define the nature and use of the config item:
- CFG_NAME_VARIABLE for items with variable names (e.g. tags)
- CFG_ALLOW_EMPTY for items where empty value is allowed
- CFG_ADVANCED for items which are considered as "advanced settings"
- CFG_UNSUPPORTED for items which are not officially supported
(config options mostly for internal use and testing/debugging)
- cfg_def_item_t to encapsulate the whole definition of the config
definition itself
Each config item is referenced by named ID, e.g. "devices_dir_CFG"
instead of directly typing the path "devices/dir" as it was before.
This patch also adds cfg_def_get_path helper function to get the
config setting path up to the root for given config ID
(it returns the path in form of "abc/def/.../xyz" where the "abc"
is the topmost element).
This file centrally defines all recognized LVM2 configuration
sections and settings. Each item here has its parent, set of
allowed types, default value, brief comment, version the setting
first appeared in and flags that further define the nature of
the configuration setting and its use.
If '--mirrors/-m' and '--stripes/-i' are used together when creating
a logical volume, mirrors-over-stripes is currently chosen. The user
can override this by using the '--type raid10' option on creation.
However, we want a place where we can set the default behavior to
'raid10' explicitly - similar to the "mirror" and "raid1" tunable,
mirror_segtype_default.
A follow-on patch should use this new setting to change the default
from "mirror" to "raid10", as this is the preferred segment type.
We have been using 'mirror_region_size' in lvm.conf as the default region
size for RAID logical volumes as well as mirror logical volumes. Since,
"raid" is more inclusive and representative than "mirror", I have changed
the name of this setting. We must still check for the old setting and warn
the user if we are overriding it with the new setting if both happen to be
present.
Add log/debug_classes to lvm.conf to allow debug messages to be
classified and filtered at runtime.
The dm_errno field is only used by log_error(), so I've redefined it
for log_debug() messages to hold the message class.
By default, all existing messages appear, but we can add categories that
generate high volumes of data, such as logging all traffic to/from
lvmetad.
Configurable settings for thin pool create
if they are not specified on command line.
New supported lvm.conf options are:
allocation/thin_pool_chunk_size
allocation/thin_pool_discards
allocation/thin_pool_zero
- move common dm_config_tree manipulation functions from lvmetad-core to
daemon-shared
- add config-tree-based request manipulation APIs to daemon-client
- factor out _v (va_list) variants of most variadic functions in libdaemon
Accept -q as the short form of --quiet.
Suppress non-essential standard output if -q is given twice.
Treat log/silent in lvm.conf as equivalent to -qq.
Review all log_print messages and change some to
log_print_unless_silent.
When silent, the following commands still produce output:
dumpconfig, lvdisplay, lvmdiskscan, lvs, pvck, pvdisplay,
pvs, version, vgcfgrestore -l, vgdisplay, vgs.
[Needs checking.]
Non-essential messages are shifted from log level 4 to log level 5
for syslog and lvm2_log_fn purposes.
A regression introduced in 2.02.89 (11e520256b)
caused the lvm dumpconfig <node> to print out
the node as well as its subsequent siblings.
The information about "only_one" mode got lost.
Before this patch (just an example node):
# lvm dumpconfig global/use_lvmetad
use_lvmetad=1
thin_check_executable="/usr/sbin/thin_check"
thin_check_options="-q"
(...all nodes to the end of the section)
With this patch applied:
# lvm dumpconfig global/use_lvmetad
use_lvmetad=1
Update a way we handle option passing - so we now support path and options
with space inside.
Fix dm name usage for thin pools with '-' in name.
Use new lvm.conf option thin_check_options to pass in options as string array.
If the lvcreate may decide some automagical values for a user,
try to keep the pool metadata size into 128MB range for optimal
perfomance (as suggested by Joe).
So if the pool metadata size and chunk_size were not specified,
try to select such values they would fit into 128MB size.
Use libdm callback to execute thin_check before activation
thin pool and after deactivation as well.
Supporting thin_check_executable which may pass in extra options for
the tool.
Reformat name and path how the LV is represented with lvm1 compatible option,
to switch to the old way - which had number of problem - i.e. many links
do not exist - since for private devices we are not creating them.
Add more info about thin pools and volumes.
New field Data% is able to display info about
thin_pool, thin, snapshot and has generic meaning here.
Simple Time/Host field are here to display host and time creation.
The RAID plug-in for dmeventd now calls 'lvconvert --repair' to address failures
of devices in a RAID logical volume. The action taken can be either to "warn"
or "allocate" a new device from any spares that may be available in the
volume group. The action is designated by setting 'raid_fault_policy' in
lvm.conf - the default being "warn".
LVM metadata knows only of striped segments - not linear ones.
The activation code detects segments with a single stripe and switches
them to use the linear target.
If the new lvm.conf setting is set to 0 (e.g. in a test script), this
'optimisation' is turned off.
Add filter which tries to check if scanned device is part
of active multipath.
Firstly, only SCSI major number devices are handled in filter.
Then it checks if device has exactly one holder (in sysfs) and
if it is device-mapper device and DM-UUID is prefixed by "MPATH-".
If so, this device is filtered out.
The whole filter can be switched off by setting
mpath_component_detection in lvm.conf.

Go with just 64KiB for stack.
Closer inspection should be made, whether we actually need to play with
settings at all.
Since default stack size is 8MB and gets mapped via page locking thus,
it seems there is no big help with preallocation of stack to some value.
A gentle reminder that anyone relying on the output of reporting commands
like lvs in scripts must use -o to guarantee they get the fields they expect.
The default sequence of fields can change from release to release.
Equally, the 'attr' fields can have new values introduced and/or characters
appended to them.
Makes dumpconfig whole-section output wrong in a different way from before,
but we should be able to merge cft_cmdline properly into cmd->cft now and
remove cascade.
functionality. A number of bugs (copied and pasted all over the code) should
disappear:
- most string lookup based on dm_config_find_node would segfault when
encountering a non-zero integer (the intention there was to print an
error message instead)
- check for required sections in metadata would have been satisfied by
values as well (i.e. not sections)
- encountering a section in place of expected flag value would have
segfaulted (due to assumed but unchecked cn->v != NULL)
leaving behind the LVM-specific parts of the code (convenience wrappers that
handle `struct device` and `struct cmd_context`, basically). A number of
functions have been renamed (in addition to getting a dm_ prefix) -- namely,
all of the config interface now has a dm_config_ prefix.
Add config option to enable crc checking of VG structures.
Currently it's disabled by default.
For the internal test-suite this check it is enabled.
Note: In the case the internal error is detected, debug build with
compile option DEBUG_ENFORCE_POOL_LOCKING helps to catch the source
of the problem.
Implementation described in doc/lvm2-raid.txt.
Basic support includes:
- ability to create RAID 1/4/5/6 arrays
- ability to delete RAID arrays
- ability to display RAID arrays
Notable missing features (not included in this patch):
- ability to clean-up/repair failures
- ability to convert RAID segment types
- ability to monitor RAID segment types
