When --sysinit -a ay is used with vg/lvchange and lvmetad is up and running,
we should skip manual activation as that would be a useless step - all volumes
are autoactivated once all the PVs for a VG are present.
If lvmetad is not active at the time of the vgchange --sysinit -a ay
call, the activation proceeds in standard 'manual' way.
This way, we can still have vg/lvchange --sysinit -a ay called
unconditionally in system initialization scripts no matter if lvmetad
is used or not.
Reducing a RAID 4/5/6 LV or extending it with a different number of
stripes is still not implemented. This patch covers the "simple" case
where the LV is extended with the same number of stripes as the orginal.
In process_each_pv() if we haven't yet scanned and the PV appears
to be an orphan, we must scan the other PVs looking for mdas that
reference it to find out what VG it is in.
1. If the PV has no mdas, we must scan.
2. If the PV has an mda that is not ignored we do not need to scan.
3. If the PV has an mda that is ignored, we do need to scan.
This patch fixes case 3.

One can use "lvcreate --aay" to have the newly created volume
activated or not activated based on the activation/auto_activation_volume_list
this way.
Note: -Z/--zero is not compatible with -aay, zeroing is not used in this case!
When using lvcreate -aay, a default warning message is also issued that zeroing
is not done.
Define auto_activation_handler that activates VGs/LVs automatically
based on the activation/auto_activation_volume_list (activating all
volumes by default if the list is not defined).
The autoactivation is done within the pvscan call in 69-dm-lvmetad.rules
that watches for udev events (device appearance/removal).
For now, this works for non-clustered and complete VGs only.
Normally, the 'vgchange -ay' activates all volume groups (that pass
the activation/volume_list filter if set).
This call can appear in two scenarios:
- system boot (so activation within a script in general)
- manual call on command line (so activaton on user's direct request)
For the former one, we would like to select which VGs should be actually
activated. One can define the list of VGs directly to do that. But that
would require the same list to be provided in all the scripts.
The 'vgchange -aay' will check for the activation/auto_activation_volume_list
in adition and it will activate only those VGs/LVs that pass this
filter (assuming all to be activated if the list is not defined - the
same logic we already have for activation/volume_list).
Init/boot scripts should use this form of activation primarily
(which, anyway, becomes only a fallback now with autoactivation done
on PV appearance in tandem with lvmetad in place).
Define an 'activation_handler' that gets called automatically on
PV appearance/disappearance while processing the lvmetad_pv_found
and lvmetad_pv_gone functions that are supposed to update the
lvmetad state based on PV availability state. For now, the actual
support is for PV appearance only, leaving room for PV disappearance
support as well (which is a more complex problem to solve as this
needs to count with possible device stack).
Add a new activation change mode - CHANGE_AAY exposed as
'--activate ay/-aay' argument ('activate automatically').
Factor out the vgchange activation functionality for use in other
tools (like pvscan...).
We're refererring to 'activation' all over the code and we're talking
about 'LVs being activated' all the time so let's use 'activation/activate'
everywhere for clarity and consistency (still providing the old
'available' keyword as a synonym for backward compatibility with
existing environments).
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.
Support has many limitations and lots of FIXMEs inside,
however it makes initial task when user creates a separate LV for
thin pool data and thin metadata already usable, so let's enable
it for testing.
Easiest API:
lvconvert --chunksize XX --thinpool data_lv metadata_lv
More functionality extensions will follow up.
TODO: Code needs some rework since a lot of same code is getting copied.
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.
When resizing thin pool - we need to use strip info from _tdata volume.
In future more generic solution will be necessary once we start to support
lvconvert (resize of stacked devices and stay properly aligned).
For now we just allow striped or linear LV so this code will work.
When given lvresize new size - round upward for stripes - unless we use % and
we are at the border of free extents.
This patch is not a complete fix and few more cases will need special care.
When vg_read fails, it internally unlocks VG if it's been locked,
so in error path we should skip unlock_vg for this case.
(user would see ugly internal warning)
Calling vgscan alone should reuse information from the lvmetad (if running).
The --cache option should initiate direct device scan and update lvmetad
appropriately (if running).
This is mainly for vgscan to behave consistently compared to pvscan.
locally or on more nodes while others are activated exclusively.
Current pvmove code can either use local mirror (for exclusive
activation) or cmirror (for clustered LVs).
Because the whole intenal pvmove LV is just segmented LV containing
segments of several top-level LVs, code cannot properly handle
situation if some segment need to be activated exclusively.
Previously, it wrongly activated exclusive LV on all nodes
(locing code allowed it) but now this is no lnger possible.
If there is exclusively activated LV, pvmove is only
possible if all affected LVs are aslo activated exclusively.
(Note that in non-exclusive mode pvmove still activates LVs
on other nodes during move.)

Code adds better support for monitoring of thin pool devices.
update_pool_lv uses DMEVENTD_MONITOR_IGNORE to not manipulate with monitoring.
vgchange & lvchange are checking real thin pool device for existance
as we are using _tpool real device and visible LV pool device might not
be even active (_tpool is activated implicitely for any thin volume).
monitor_dev_for_events is another _lv_postorder like code it might be worth
to think about reusing it here - for now update the code to properly
monitory thin volume deps.
For unmonitoring add extra code to check the usage of thin pool - in case it's in use
unmonitoring of thin volume is skipped.
Never return unfinished toolcontext - since error path is hit on
various stages of initialization we cannot leave it partially uninitialized,
since we would need to spread many more test across the code for config_valid.
Instead return NULL and properly release udev library resources as well.
Fix regression in man page. The chunk size is in kilobyte units on command line
input though in the source code we work with sector size unit
so make it clear in the man page.
Update chunksize for thin pool in man page - it's max value is 1024M == 1G.
Fix warning range message to show proper max value.
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.
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.
Move the code for poolmetadatasize operation into one place.
Report override for minimum and maximum size.
Drop _read_thin_params function its error reporting is handled elsewhere.
