If LVM LVs happen to contain PVs, they are passed to the lvm udev
rule for processing, where they should be ignored. PVs on LVs
most likely belong to VM images, and don't belong to the host
which sees the LV. It's unsafe for the host to use these PVs.
Without this change, the LV would be processed by pvscan which
would generally ignore it, either because of the devices file,
or because of the default lvm policy to not consider LVs as
potential PVs. This change makes the udev rule consistent
with that policy and avoids the unnecessary system messages
produced when pvscan ignores the LV.
Allow users to specify their path to systemd-run binary:
configure --with-systemd-run=/my/path/system-run
By defaults it autodetected in $PATH and fallbacks to:
/usr/bin/systemd-run.
Follow-up for e10f67e917.
The commit e10f67e917 tries to keep device
node symlinks even if the device is in the suspended state. However,
necessary properties that may previously obtained by the blkid command
were not imported at least in the .rules file. So, unless ID_FS_xyz
properties are imported by another earlier .rules file, the device node
symlinks are still lost when event is processed in the suspended state.
Let's explicitly import the necessary properties.

We used KERNEL=="device-mapper", NAME="/dev/mapper/control" udev rule to
create the /dev/mapper/control file. The "NAME" rule should be only used
to rename network devices, otherwise udev issues a warning message. The
device-mapper driver has proper DEVNAME=/dev/mapper/control propagated
in the uevent environment when it is loaded so we don't need further
instruction on where to create the node - udev knows already.
Also, these days, it is created directly by kernel inside devtmpfs.
This makes the NAME="/dev/mapper/control" rule completely obsolete.
Since 67722b3123, we have a new mechanism
to run the autoactivation from udev. With this change, we also replaced
the way the LVM autoactivation service is instantiatiated - instead of
setting the SYSTEM_WANTS udev variable (which systemd read and then
instantiated the service), we're now directly instantiating the
transient 'lvm-activate-<vgname>' service by calling systemd-run.
As such, we don't need to bother with setting the SYSTEMD_READY variable
for foreign devices anymore (in this case, MD and loop devices on top of
which there's a PV).
Before, we set the SYSTEMD_READY variable to make sure that the SYSTEMD_WANTS
is applied correctly - the service instantiation was edge-triggered by
flipping the SYSTEMD_READY from 0 to 1 and at the same time having the
SYSTEMD_WANTS variable set to the service name to instantiate. We're
using systemd-run now so this condition does not apply anymore.
Also, it was not completely correct to set SYSTEMD_READY for foreign
devices because there might be cases where this could cause issues,
see also https://github.com/lvmteam/lvm2/issues/94.
If a dm device is suspended, we can't run blkid on it. But earlier
rules (e.g. 11-dm-parts.rules) might have imported previously scanned
properties from the udev db, in particular if the device had been correctly
set up beforehand (DM_UDEV_PRIMARY_SOURCE_FLAG==1). Symlinks for existing
ID_FS_xyz properties must be preserved in this case. Otherwise lower-priority
devices (such as multipath components) might take over the symlink
temporarily.
Likewise, we should't stop watching a temporarily suspended, but previously
correctly configured dm device.

If the transient service remains after it's done, then
it prevents the same transient service from being run
again later if the PVs are detached and reattached
(although the behavior of a second autoactivation is not
well defined and may only work in limited cases.)
Port the old pvscan -aay scanning optimization to vgchange -aay.
The optimization uses pvs_online files created by pvscan --cache
to derive a list of devices to use when activating a VG. This
allows autoactivation of a VG to avoid scanning all devices, and
only scan the devices used by the VG itself. The optimization is
applied internally using the device hints interface.
The new option "--autoactivation event" is given to pvscan and
vgchange commands that are called by event activation. This
informs the command that it is being used for event activation,
so that it can apply checks and optimizations that are specific
to event activation. Those include:
- skipping the command if lvm.conf event_activation=0
- checking that a VG is complete before activating it
- using pvs_online files to limit device scanning
new udev rule 69-dm-lvm.rules replaces
69-dm-lvm-meta.rules and lvm2-pvscan.service
udev rule calls pvscan directly on the added device
pvscan output indicates if a complete VG can be activated
udev env var LVM_VG_NAME_COMPLETE is used to pass complete
VG name from pvscan to the udev rule
udev rule uses systemd-run to run vgchange -aay <vgname>
The OPTIONS+="event_timeout" is Unsupported since systemd/udev version 216,
that is ~5 years ago.
Since systemd/udev version 243, there's a new message printed if unsupported
OPTIONS value is used:
Invalid value for OPTIONS key, ignoring: 'event_timeout=180'

We've been assigning this in 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules:
ENV{ID_MODEL}="LVM PV $env{ID_FS_UUID_ENC} on /dev/$name"
This was for the description to appear for each systemd device
unit representing this device, for example:
$systemctl -a | grep "LVM PV"
dev-block-252:2.device loaded active plugged LVM PV JhxC7B-YTgk-3jIU-5GVo-c4gV-W8t3-UUz06p on /dev/vda2 2
dev-disk-by\x2did-lvm\x2dpv\x2duuid\x2dJhxC7B\x2dYTgk\x2d3jIU\x2d5GVo\x2dc4gV\x2dW8t3\x2dUUz06p.device loaded active plugged LVM PV JhxC7B-YTgk-3jIU-5GVo-c4gV-W8t3-UUz06p on /dev/vda2 2
...
However, there could be an actual ID_MODEL that people are interested in
more than the fact that this is an LVM PV and so we shouldn't overwrite
the value.
Also, we already have a symlink /dev/disk/by-id/lvm-pv-uuid-<PV_UUID>
created which is then reflected as device unit (all device's symlinks
have systemd device unit representation) so we can still reach this
information in systemd unit listings even without setting the ID_MODEL.

The current logic that avoids setting SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS
on "change" events is flawed in the default "systemd background job"
configuration. For systemd, it's important that device properties don't
change spuriously.
If an "add" event starts lvm2-pvscan@.service for a device, and a
"change" event follows, removing SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS from the
udev db, information about unit dependencies between the device and the
pvscan service can be lost in systemd, in particular if the daemon
configuration is reloaded.
Steps to reproduce problem:
- create a device with an LVM PV
- remove device
- add device (generates "add" and "change" uevents for the device)
(at this point SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS are clear in udev db)
- systemctl daemon-reload
(systemd reloads udev db)
- vgchange -a n
- remove device
=> the lvm2-pvscan@.service for the device is still active although the
device is gone.
- add device again
=> the PV is not detected, because systemd sees the lvm2-pvscan@.service
as active and thus doesn't restart it.
The original purpose of this logic was to avoid volumes being scanned
over and over again. With systemd background jobs, that isn't necessary,
because systemd will not restart the job as long as it's active.

Make the distinction between the cases with and without systemd
background jobs explicit in 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules rather than
substituting the rule from the Makefile. At this stage,
this improves only readibility, at the cost of one GOTO statement.
This patch introduces no functional change to the udev rules.

The blkid we call in 13-dm-disk.rules also returns identifiers for
partitions based on which the /dev/disk/by-part{uuid,label} and
gpt-auto-root symlinks should be created in the same manner as we
already create symlinks for filesystem labels and uuids.
This is because we handle blkid calls and symlink creation under
/dev/disk ourselves in our 13-dm-disk.rules for device-mapper devices
for us to have more control over this process.
See also https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2017-July/039220.html
and original report http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/19489 for
the exact case where these symlinks were missing.
Fixing vpath usage as it has been checking for existance of
generated file also in the $(scrdir) e.g.:
No need to remake target '10-dm.rules.in'; using VPATH name '...'
If the $(srcdir) had been also $(builddir) and contained already
generated rules file, it's been used instead generating new
one.
(See: http://make.mad-scientist.net/papers/how-not-to-use-vpath/)
If the PV label is lost (e.g. by doing a dd on the device), call
"systemd-run pvscan --cache <major>:<minor>" in 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules
to inform lvmetad about this state.
The reason for this is that ENV{SYSTEMD_WANTS}="lvm2-pvscan@<major>:<minor>"
logic will not cause the pvscan to be fired in this case since this works
only on proper device addition/removal cycle - the lvm2-pvscan service's
ExecStop is called only on proper REMOVE event - the service is bound to
device existence. Hence we need pvscan call via systemd-run (that
instantiates a quick transient service just to call the command).
See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1063813.
We already have /dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-... (which encompasses the
VG UUID and LV UUID in case of LVs since the mapping's UUID is
VG+LV UUID together) and /dev/disk/by-id/dm-name-... (which encompasses
the VG and LV name in case of LVs).
This patch addds /dev/disk/by-id/lvm-pv-uuid-<PV_UUID> that completes
this scheme and makes navigation a bit easier using PV UUIDs since
one can navigate using PV UUIDs only and there's no need to do extra
PV UUID <--> kernel name matching (the PV UUID is stable across reboots).
This may come in handy in various scripts.
Since we already have the PV UUID stored in udev database (as a result
of blkid call - returned in ID_FS_UUID blkid's variable), this operation
is very cheap indeed, just creating the extra one symlink.
Clear temporary DM_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG properly. This did not
cause any bug or problem as the temporary variable is overwritten next
time it's used again, but we should still clean it properly!
Do not drop device's flag to report readiness for systemd
processing if there's any event that follows the activatiion
event itself. Otherwise, systemd would lost track of this device
on any other event that follows the activating event (IOW, we
need to make SYSTEMD_READY variable change level-based, not edge-based).
This patch applies for MD and loop devices used as PVs.
(intra-release fix for commit 4c267c7286)
Some devices, similarly to us, are not prepared after ADD event, but
after an extra CHANGE event when the device is properly set up.
This includes MD and loop devices. This patch fixes the
SYSTEMD_READY assignment that is crucial for proper functionality
of SYSTEMD_WANTS that we use to instantiate a lvm2-pvscan@.service
systemd service to activate the VG/LVs (see also bug
info).
All that extra handling of foreign devices should eventually be moved
to rules which process those devices primarily (MD and loop)! We should
only check a dedicated variable whether the device is usable or not.
MD can directly create partition devices without a need to run
an extra kpartx or partprobe call. We need to react to this event in
a different way as for bare MD devices - we need to handle the ADD event
for KERNEL=="md[0-9]*p[0-9]*" kernel name and trigger the LVM scanning
to update lvmetad to trigger autoactivation and so on...
Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1023250
Reset the DM_UDEV_OTHER_RULES_FLAG to original value right at the
time of dropping the DM_NOSCAN flag.
When DM_NOSCAN is set, the DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG is also set
to avoid udev processing in "other/foreign" rules. If the noscan flag
is dropped, the DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG should be reset to
its original value.
Also, lvmetad should respect the DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG
because if the volume is set with this flag it:
- definitely is not a top-level device (so makes no sense for lvmetad scanning)
- is not supposed to be scanned further (for any stacking on top of
it, including LVM stacking itself and any autoactivation of stacked LVs)
When using ENV{SYSTEMD_WANTS}=lvm2-pvscan@... to instantiate a service
for lvmetad scan when the new PV appears in the system, the service
is started and executed. However, to track device removal, we need
to bind it (the "BindsTo" systemd directive) to a certain .device
systemd unit.
In default systemd setup, the device is tracked by it's name and
sysfs path (there's normally a sysfs path .device systemd unit for
a device and then the device name .device unit as an alias for it).
Neither of these two is useful for lvmetad update as we need to bind
it to device's <major>:<minor> pair.
The /dev/block/<major>:<minor> is the essential symlink under /dev
that exists for each block device (created by default udev rules
provided by udev directly). So let's use this as an alias for
the device's .device unit as well by means of "ENV{SYSTEMD_ALIAS}"
declaration within udev rules which systemd understands (this will
create a new alias "dev-block-<major>:<minor>.device".
Then we can easily bind the "dev-block-<major>:<minor>" device
systemd unit with instantiated lvm2-pvscan@<major>:<minor>.service.
So once the device is removed from the systemd, the
lvm-pvscan@<major>:<minor>.service executes it's ExecStop action
(which in turn notifies lvmetad about the device being gone).
This completes the udev-systemd-lvmetad interaction then.
The new lvm2-pvscan@.service is responsible for on-demand execution
of "pvscan --cache --activate ay" which causes lvmetad to be
updated and LVM activation done if the VG is complete.
Also, use udev-systemd mechanism to instantiate the job as the
lvm2-pvscan@$devnode.service on each newly appeared PV in the system.
This prevents the background job to be killed (that would happen
if it was directly forked from udev rule - this behaviour is seen
in recent versions of udev with the help of systemd that can track
detached processes - the detached process would still be in the same
cgroup).
To enable this official udev-systemd protocol for instantiating
background jobs, use new --enable-udev-systemd-background-jobs
configure switch (it's disabled by default). This option is highly
recommended wherever systemd is used!
Recognize DM_SUBSYSTEM_UDEV_FLAG0 which for LVM is the "LVM_NOSCAN"
flag that causes the scanning to be skipped (mainly blkid) and
also directs all the foreign rules to be skipped as well.
Important thing here is that the "watch" udev rules is still set
as well as the /dev/disk/by-id content created (which does not
require any scanning to be done). Also, the flag is dropped on
any subsequent event and scanning done...
Each subsystem rule that needs to import any of DM_SUBSYSTEM_UDEV_FLAG*
flags is responsible for doing so. This simply moves control of these
flags from general 10-dm.rules to any subsystem rule using these flags
as each subsystem knows better how to handle these flags on its own.
