Current allocation limitation requires to fit metadata/log LV on
a single PV. This is usually not a big problem, but since
thin-pool and cache-pool is using this for allocating extents
for their metadata LVs it might be eventually causing errors
where the remaining free spaces for large metadata size is spread
over several PV.
When passing 'pvmove --name arg' try to automatically move
all associated dependencies with given LV.
i.e. 'pvmove --name thinpool vg vgnew'
moves all thins and data and metadata LV into a new VG vgnew.
Use update_pool_metadata_min_max() which is shared with
thin-pool metadata min-max updating.
Gives improved messages when converting volumes to metadata.
There is not much point to let allocate more then this size
even when i.e. converted LV is bigger then 16GiB (%extent_size)
ATM neither thin-pool nor cache-pool supports bigger metadata.
Initial support for thin-pool used slightly smaller max size 15.81GiB
for thin-pool metadata. However the real limit later settled at 15.88GiB
(difference is ~64MiB - 16448 4K blocks).
lvm2 could not simply increase the size as it has been using hard cropping
of the loaded metadata device to avoid warnings printing warning of kernel
when the size was bigger (i.e. due to bigger extent_size).
This patch adds the new lvm.conf configurable setting:
allocation/thin_pool_crop_metadata
which defaults to 0 -> no crop of metadata beyond 15.81GiB.
Only user with these sizes of metadata will be affected.
Without cropping lvm2 now limits metadata allocation size to 15.88GiB.
Any space beyond is currently not used by thin-pool target.
Even if i.e. bigger LV is used for metadata via lvconvert,
or allocated bigger because of to large extent size.
With cropping enabled (=1) lvm2 preserves the old limitation
15.81GiB and should allow to work in the evironement with
older lvm2 tools (i.e. older distribution).
Thin-pool metadata with size bigger then 15.81G is now using CROP_METADATA
flag within lvm2 metadata, so older lvm2 recognizes an
incompatible thin-pool and cannot activate such pool!
Users should use uncropped version as it is not suffering
from various issues between thin_repair results and allocated
metadata LV as thin_repair limit is 15.88GiB
Users should use cropping only when really needed!
Patch also better handles resize of thin-pool metadata and prevents resize
beoyond usable size 15.88GiB. Resize beyond 15.81GiB automatically
switches pool to no-crop version. Even with existing bigger thin-pool
metadata command 'lvextend -l+1 vg/pool_tmeta' does the change.
Patch gives better controls 'coverted' metadata LV and
reports less confusing message during conversion.
Patch set also moves the code for updating min/max into pool_manip.c
for better sharing with cache_pool code.
When detaching writecache, make the first stage send a message
to dm-writecache to set the cleaner option. This is instead of
reloading the dm table with the cleaner option set. Reloading
the table causes udev to process/probe the dm dev, which gets
stalled because of the writeback activity, and the stalled udev
in turn stalls the lvconvert command when it tries to sync with
udev events.
When getting writecache status we do not need to get
open_count or read_head info, which can cause extra steps.
In case legs of a raid0 LV are removed, the lvdisplay command still
reports 'available' though raid0 is not providing any resilience
compared to the other raid levels.
Also lvdisplay does not display '(partial)' in case of missing raid0
legs as oposed to the lvs command.
Enhance lvdisplay to report "NOT available" for any RaidLV type in case
too many legs are inaccessible hence causing data loss. I.e. any leg
for raid0, all for raid1, more than 1 for raid4/5, more than 2 for raid6
and in case of completely lost mirror groups for raid10.
Add test/shell/lvdisplay-raid.sh.

New VDO targets v6.2.3 corrects support for online rename of VDO device.
If needed if can be disable via new lvm.conf setting:
vdo_disabled_features = [ "online_rename" ]
When removing pool LV from a stacked LV setup, it's been possible
to leak _pmspare and such hidden LV then required manual
user removal.
Fix it by moving automatic removal into _lv_reduce().
When adding replacement raid+integrity images (lvconvert --repair
after a raid image is lost), various errors can cause the function
to exit with an error. On this exit path, the function attempts
to revert new images that had been created but not yet used. The
cleanup failed to account for the fact that not all images needed
to be reverted.
Since commit 77fdc17d70 always include
log_len size into needed extents - however now we may need sometimes
more extents then necessary - mainly when multiple PVs are involved
into allocation.
Add logs_still_needed into calculation of sufficient_pes_free()
When a writecache sublv or an integrity metadata sublv
are partial (missing a dev), set the partial flag on
the upper level LV also, as is done for other sublvs.
When using cache with a cachevol, the cache_check tool was
not being run on the cache metadata during activation.
cache_check clears the needs_check flag in the cache
metadata, so if the flag was set due to an unclean
shutdown, the activation would fail.
Each integrity image in a raid LV reports its own number
of integrity mismatches, e.g.
lvs -o integritymismatches vg/lv_rimage_0
lvs -o integritymismatches vg/lv_rimage_1
In addition to this, allow the total number of integrity
mismatches from all images to be displayed for the raid LV.
lvs -o integritymismatches vg/lv
shows the number of mismatches from both lv_rimage_0 and
lv_rimage_1.
The args for pvcreate/pvremove (and vgcreate/vgextend
when applicable) were not efficiently opened, scanned,
and filtered. This change reorganizes the opening
and filtering in the following steps:
- label scan and filter all devs
. open ro
. standard label scan at the start of command
- label scan and filter dev args
. open ro
. uses full md component check
. typically the first scan and filter of pvcreate devs
- close and reopen dev args
. open rw and excl
- repeat label scan and filter dev args
. using reopened rw excl fd
- wipe and write new headers
. using reopened rw excl fd
In some cases the dev size may not have been read yet
in set_pv_devices(). In this case get the dev size
before comparing the dev size with the pv size.
To read the lvm headers and set dev->pvid if the
device is a PV. Difference from label_scan_ functions
is this does not read any vg metadata or add any info
to lvmcache.
Filtering in label_scan was controlled indirectly by
the fact that bcache was not yet set up when label_scan
first ran. The result is that filters that needed data
would not run and would return -EAGAIN, which would
result in the dev flag FILTER_AFTER_SCAN being set.
After the dev header was read for checking the label,
filters would be rechecked because of FILTER_AFTER_SCAN.
All filters would be checked this time because bcache
was now set up, and the filters needing data would
largely use data already scanned for reading the label.
This design worked but is hard to adjust for future
cases where bcache is already set up.
Replace this method (based on setting up bcache, or not)
with a new cmd flag filter_nodata_only. When this flag
is set filters that need data will not run. This allows
the same label_scan behavior when bcache has been set up.
There are no expected changes in behavior.
Touch of stack allocation validated given size with rlimit
and if the reserved_stack was above rlimit, its been completely
ignored - now we will always touch stack upto rlimit/2 size.
Since BLKZEROOUT ioctl should be supposedly fastest
way how to clear block device start using this ioctl
for zeroing a device. Commonly we do zero typically
small portion of a device (8KiB) - however since we now
also started to zero metadata devices, in the case
of i.e. thin-pool metadata this can go upto ~16GiB
and here the performance starts to be noticable.
Since dev_set_bytes() now closes dev on error path itself,
remove this unneeded call now (introduced few commits back
in history thus removing comment from WHATS_NEW)
Since lvm2 normally block signals during protected
phase where it does not want to be interrupted.
Support interruptible processing when allowed
in section between sigint_allow() ... sigint_restore())
and let the 'io_getenvents()' finish with EINTR.
When bcache tries to write data to a faulty device,
it may get out of caching blocks and then just busy-loops
on a CPU - so this check protects this by checking
if there is already max_io (~64) errored blocks.
Call _wait_all() which does check whether there is still
some pending IO before sleep. Otherwise it may happen
our submitted IO operations have been already dispatched
and this call then endlessly waits for IO which are all done.
This can be reproduced when device returns quickly errors
on write requests.
When detaching a writecache, use the cleaner setting
by default to writeback data prior to suspending the
lv to detach the writecache. This avoids potentially
blocking for a long period with the device suspended.
Detaching a writecache first sets the cleaner option, waits
for a short period of time (less than a second), and checks
if the writecache has quickly become clean. If so, the
writecache is detached immediately. This optimizes the case
where little writeback is needed.
If the writecache does not quickly become clean, then the
detach command leaves the writecache attached with the
cleaner option set. This leaves the LV in the same state
as if the user had set the cleaner option directly with
lvchange --cachesettings cleaner=1 LV.
After leaving the LV with the cleaner option set, the
detach command will wait and watch the writeback progress,
and will finally detach the writecache when the writeback
is finished. The detach command does not need to wait
during the writeback phase, and can be canceled, in which
case the LV will remain with the writecache attached and
the cleaner option set. When the user runs the detach
command again it will complete the detach.
To detach a writecache directly, without using the cleaner
step (which has been the approach previously), add the
option --cachesettings cleaner=0 to the detach command.
