The DM_EVENT_GET_PARAMETERS requests the parameters under which
the running dmeventd is run and the it sends them to caller.
The parameters sent:
- the pid of the running dmeventd
- foreground state
- exec_method (currently either "direct" or "systemd")
The exact message sent back:
pid=<pid> daemon=<no/yes> exec_method=<direct/systemd>
Trying to restart dmeventd as a reload action is causing problems
under systemd environment. The systemd loses track of new dmeventd
this way. See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1060134
for more info.
We need to call dmeventd -R directly instead of "systemctl reload dm-event.service"
that was used before (the reload is aimed at configuration reload anyway,
not stateful restart of the daemon - we did this before just because
there's no ExecRestart in systemd and there's only ExecStart and
ExecStop with which we'd lose the state).
Also, use ExecStart="dmeventd -f" to run dmeventd in foreground
(and let's rely on systemd to daemonize it) and change the
service type from "forking" to "simple".
The PIE and RELRO compiler/linker options can be used to produce a code
some techniques applied that makes the code more immune to some attacks:
- PIE (Position Independent Executable). It can make use of the ASLR
(Address Space Layout Randomization) provided by kernel to avoid
static locations for .text regions of executables (this is the 'pie'
compiler and linker option)
- RELRO (Relocation Read-Only). This prevents overwrite attacks of
the GOT (Global Offset Table) and PLT (Procedure Lookup Table)
used for relocations by making it read-only after all relocations
are resolved (these are the 'relro' and 'now' linker options) -
hence all symbols are resolved at the very start so there's no
need for those tables to be writeable later.
These compiler/linker options are now used by default for daemons
if the compiler/linker supports it.
Make it easier to run a live lvmetad in debugging mode and
to avoid conflicts if multiple test instances need to be run
alongside a live one.
No longer require -s when -f is used: use built-in default.
Add -p to lvmetad to specify the pid file.
No longer disable pidfile if -f used to run in foreground.
If specified socket file appears to be genuine but stale, remove it
before use.
On error, only remove lvmetad socket file if created by the same
process. (Previous code removes socket even while a running instance
is using it!)
If using lv/vgchange --sysinit -aay and lvmetad is enabled, we'd like to
avoid the direct activation and rely on autoactivation instead so
it fits system initialization scripts.
But if we're calling lv/vgchange --sysinit -aay too early when even
lvmetad service is not started yet, we just need to do the direct
activation instead without printing any error messages (while
trying to connect to lvmetad and not finding its socket).
This patch adds two helper functions - "lvmetad_socket_present" and
"lvmetad_used" which can be used to check for this condition properly
and avoid these lvmetad connections when the socket is not present
(and hence lvmetad is not yet running).
Failures in the temporary mirror used when up-converting cause dmeventd
to issue 'lvconvert --repair' on the sub-LV, <lv_name>_mimagetmp_?. The
'lvconvert' command refuses to deal with this sub-LV outright - it
expects to be given the name of the top-level LV. So, just like we do
with mirrored logs, we strip-off the portion of the name that is not
the top-level LV and issue the command on the top-level LV instead.
This fixes a bug in commit 19baf842 where verify_message
was rejecting the CLVMD_FLAG_REMOTE flag. It was missed
since the patch was ported from an lvm version where that
flag does not exist.
Add LV_TEMPORARY flag for LVs with limited existence during command
execution. Such LVs are temporary in way that they need to be activated,
some action done and then removed immediately. Such LVs are just like
any normal LV - the only difference is that they are removed during
LVM command execution. This is also the case for LVs representing
future pool metadata spare LVs which we need to initialize by using
the usual LV before they are declared as pool metadata spare.
We can optimize some other parts like udev to do a better job if
it knows that the LV is temporary and any processing on it is just
useless.
This flag is orthogonal to LV_NOSCAN flag introduced recently
as LV_NOSCAN flag is primarily used to mark an LV for the scanning
to be avoided before the zeroing of the device happens. The LV_TEMPORARY
flag makes a difference between a full-fledged LV visible in the system
and the LV just used as a temporary overlay for some action that needs to
be done on underlying PVs.
For example: lvcreate --thinpool POOL --zero n -L 1G vg
- first, the usual LV is created to do a clean up for pool metadata
spare. The LV is activated, zeroed, deactivated.
- between "activated" and "zeroed" stage, the LV_NOSCAN flag is used
to avoid any scanning in udev
- betwen "zeroed" and "deactivated" stage, we need to avoid the WATCH
udev rule, but since the LV is just a usual LV, we can't make a
difference. The LV_TEMPORARY internal LV flag helps here. If we
create the LV with this flag, the DM_UDEV_DISABLE_DISK_RULES
and DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES flag are set (just like as it is
with "invisible" and non-top-level LVs) - udev is directed to
skip WATCH rule use.
- if the LV_TEMPORARY flag was not used, there would normally be
a WATCH event generated once the LV is closed after "zeroed"
stage. This will make problems with immediated deactivation that
follows.
A common scenario is during new LV creation when we need to wipe the
newly created LV and avoid any udev scanning before this stage otherwise
it could cause the device (the LV) to be claimed by some other subsystem
for which there were stale metadata within LV data.
This patch adds possibility to mark the LV we're just about to wipe with
a flag that gets passed to udev via DM_COOKIE as a subsystem specific
flag - DM_SUBSYSTEM_UDEV_FLAG0 (in this case the subsystem is "LVM")
so LVM udev rules will take care of handling that.
The corosync cluster interface for clvmd did not correctly
deal with node up/down events so that when a node was removed
from the cluster clvmd would prevent remote operations
from happening, as it thought the node was up but not
running clvmd.
This patch fixes that code by simplifying the case to node
being up or down - which was the original intention
and is supported by pacemaker and CPG in the higher layers.

Add more 'realistic' simulation of dlm locking.
Previous version was not capable to maintain multiple locks.
Current version doesn't handle multiqueues for locks,
so the ordering is different.
The bug addressed by this patch manifested itself during testing
by showing a mirror that never became 'in-sync' after creation.
The bug is isolated to distributions that do not have support
for openAIS checkpointing (i.e. > RHEL6, > F16).
When a node joins a group that is managing a mirror log, the other
machines in the group send it a checkpoint representing the current
state of the bitmap. More than one machine can send a checkpoint,
but only the initial one should be imported. Once the bitmap state
has been imported from the initial checkpoint, operations (such
as resync, mark, and clear operations) can begin. When subsequent
checkpoints are allowed to be imported, it has the effect of erasing
all the log operations between the initial checkpoint and the ones
that follow.
When cmirrord was updated to handle the absence of openAIS
checkpointing (commit 62e38da133),
the new import_checkpoint() function failed to honor the 'no_read'
parameter. This parameter was designed to avoid reading all but
the initial checkpoint. Honoring this parameter has solved the
issue of corrupting bitmap data with secondary checkpoints.
