Commit 8767435ef8 allowed RAID 4/5/6
LV to be extended properly, but introduced a regression in device
replacement - a critical component of fault tolerance.
When only 1 or 2 drives are being replaced, the 'area_count' needed
can be equal to the parity_count. The 'area_multiple' for RAID 4/5/6
was computed as 'area_count - parity_devs', which could result in
'area_multiple' being 0. This would ultimately lead to a division by
zero error. Therefore, in calc_area_multiple, it is important to take
into account the number of areas that are being requested - just as
we already do in _alloc_init.
Add arg support for discard.
Add discard ignore, nopassdown, passdown (=default) support.
Flags could be set per pool.
lvcreate [--discard {ignore|no_passdown|passdown}] vg/thinlv
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.
If _alloc_parallel_area for raid devices chooses an area already used
up, it doesn't notice that it has no space left in it and leaves
later code trying to place a zero-length area into the LV.

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 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).
Update release_lv_segment_area not to discard any PV extents,
as it also gets used when moving extents between LVs.
Instead, call a new function release_and_discard_lv_segment_area() in
the two places where data should be discarded - lv_reduce() and
remove_mirrors_from_segments().
When mirrors are up-converted, a transient mirror layer is put in so that
only the new devices are sync'ed. That transient layer must carry the tags
of the original mirror LV, otherwise it will fail to activate when activation
is regulated by lvm.conf:activation/volume_list. The conversion would then
fail.
The fix is to do exactly the same thing that is being done for linear ->
mirror converting (lib/metadata/mirror.c:_init_mirror_log()). We copy the
tags temporarily for the new LV and remove them after the activation.
Snapshots of RAID logical volumes are allowed (including "raid1"). However,
snapshots of "mirror" logical volumes has been disallowed due to unsolvable
issues inherent to the design. The fact that mirroring (dm-raid1.c) must
stop all I/O as the result of a failure and wait for userspace intervention
can lead to a circular dependency if userspace is simultaneously waiting for
snapshots (on mirrors) to make an I/O update before proceeding.
Various snapshot on mirror tests have been removed as a result.
If two devices in an array failed, it was previously impossible to replace
just one of them. This patch allows for the replacement of some, but perhaps
not all, failed devices.
The logic for resuming the original and newly split LVs was not properly
done to handle situations where anything but the last device in the array
was split. It did not take into account the possible name collisions that
might occur when the original LV undergoes the shifting and renaming of its
sub-LVs.
In this case we should allow to use local mirror, check for cmirror
should apply only for lvconvert/lvcreate.
Introduced in 2.02.86 by removing !(lv->status & ACTIVATE_EXCL).
(Partially workaround, it is minimalistic patch for now.)
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.
When down-converting a RAID1 device, it is the last device that is extracted
and removed when the user does not specify a particular device. However,
when a device is specified (and it is not the last), the device is removed and
the remaining sub-LVs are "shifted down" to fill the hole. This cause problems
when resuming the LV because if the shifted devices were resumed (and thus
renamed) before the sub-LV being extracted, there would be a name conflict.
The solution is to resume the extracted sub-LVs first so that they can be
properly renamed preventing a possible conflict.
This addresses bug 801967.
Add 3rd daemon return state "unknown" for lookups that are carried out
successfully but don't find the item requested.
Avoid issuing error messages when it's expected that a device that's
being looked up in lvmetad might not be there.
If the thin pool has disabled zeroing (created with -Zn), we at least
clear initial 4KiB of such thin volume (provisions 1st block).
If lvcreate is executed with '-an' command will abort (same way like we for
normal LV - however for normal LV option -Zn may skip clearing completely,
for thin volumes this option is not supported (applies only for pools).
