Some of the names for various RAID options have been changed and the man
pages need to reflect it.
lvcreate:
from: minrecoveryrate to: [raid]minrecoveryrate
from: maxrecoveryrate to: [raid]maxrecoveryrate
* plus better clarity on what the arg to these options is
specifying
lvchange:
from: minrecoveryrate to: [raid]minrecoveryrate
from: maxrecoveryrate to: [raid]maxrecoveryrate
* plus better clarity on what the arg to these options is
specifying
from: syncaction to: [raid]syncaction
from: writebehind to [raid]writebehind
* plus change arg from BehindCount to IO/count
from: writemostly to: [raid]writemostly
* plus addition to document [:{t|n|y}] option
lvs:
from: mismatches to: raid_mismatch_count
from: sync_action to: raid_sync_action
add : raid_min|max_recovery_rate, raid_write_behind
When the merging of snapshot is finished, we need to clean dm table
intries for snapshot and -cow device. So for merging snapshot
we have to activate_lv plain 'cow' LV and let the table
resolver to its work - shortly deactivation_lv() request
will follow - in cluster this needs LV lock to be held by clvmd.
Also update a test - add small wait - if lvremove is not 'fast enough'
and merging process has not been stopped and $lv1 removed in background.
Ortherwise the following lvcreate occasionally finds name $lv1 still in use.
(in release fix)
We check the version number of dm-raid before testing certain
features to make sure they are present. However, this has
become somewhat complicated by the fact that the version #'s
in the upstream kernel and the REHL6 kernel have been diverging.
This has been a necessity because the upstream kernel has
undergone ABI changes that have necessitated a bump in the
'Y' component of the version #, while the RHEL6 kernel has not.
Thus, we need to know that the ABI has not changed but the
features have been added. So, the current version #'ing stands
as follows:
RHEL6 Upstream Comment
======|==========|========
** Same until version 1.3.1 **
------|----------|--------
N/A | 1.4.0 | Non-functional change.
| | Removes arg from mapping function.
------|----------|--------
1.3.2 | 1.4.1 | RAID10 fix redundancy validation checks.
------|----------|--------
1.3.5 | 1.4.2 | Add RAID10 "far" and "offset" algorithm support.
| | Note this feature came later in RHEL6 as part of
| | a separate update/feature.
------|----------|--------
1.3.3 | 1.5.0 | Add message interface to allow manipulation of
| | the sync_action.
| | New status (STATUSTYPE_INFO) fields: sync_action
| | and mismatch_cnt.
------|----------|--------
1.3.4 | 1.5.1 | Add ability to restore transiently failed devices
| | on resume.
------|----------|--------
1.3.5 | 1.5.2 | 'mismatch_cnt' is zero unless [last_]sync_action
| | is "check".
------|----------|--------
To simplify, writemostly/writebehind, scrubbing, and transient device
failure restoration are all tested based on the same version
requirements: (1.3.5 < V < 1.4.0) || (V > 1.5.2). Since kernel
support for writemostly/writebehind has been around for some time,
this could mean a reduction in the scope of kernels tested for this
feature. I don't view this as much of a problem, since support for
this feature was only recently added to LVM. Thus, the user would
have to be using a very recent LVM version with an older kernel.
The mismatch count reported by a dm-raid kernel target used
to be effectively random, unless it was checked after a
"check" scrubbing action had been performed. Updates to the
kernel now mean that the mismatch count will be 0 unless a
check has been performed and discrepancies had been found.
This has been the intended behaviour all along.
This patch updates the test suite to handle the change.
The status printed for dm-raid targets on older kernels does not include
the syncaction field. This is handled by dev_manager_raid_status() just
fine by populating the raid status structure with NULL for that field.
However, lv_raid_sync_action() does not properly handle that field being
NULL. So, check for it and return 0 if it is NULL.
As the library handle has a dm pool associated with
it for long running processes it is required to close and
re-open the library to free the dm pool. Call added so
python clients can reclaim memory, lvm.gc().
Note: Any python objects on the heap become invalid at the
time this call is made. If referenced, a seg. fault could
occur. No simple way to make this safe with the current
memory management in the C library. Use with caution!

Add --poolmetadataspare option and creates and handles
pool metadata spare lv when thin pool is created.
With default setting 'y' it tries to ensure, spare has
at least the size of created LV.
Pool creation involves clearing of metadata device
which triggers udev watch rule we cannot udev synchronize with
in current code.
This metadata devices needs to be activated localy,
so in cluster mode deactivation and reactivation
is always needed.
However for non-clustered mode we may reload table
via suspend/resume path which avoids collision with
udev watch rule which was occasionaly triggering
retry deactivation loop.
Code has been also split into 2 separate code paths
for thin pools and thin volumes which improved readability
of the code as well.
Deactivation has been moved out of extend_pool() and
decision is now in _lv_create_an_lv() which knows
the change mode.
Since we vg_write&commit metadata LV inside lv_extend() call,
proper restore is needed in case something fails.
So add bad: section which deactivates activated LV
and removes it from VG.
Also check early for metadata LV name lengh fail.
The new lvm2-activation-net.service activates LVM volumes
after network-attached devices are set up (iSCSI and FCoE)
if lvmetad is disabled and hence the autoactivation is not
used.
