There are two basic groups of fields for LV segment device reporting:
- related to LV segment's devices: devices and seg_pe_ranges
- related to LV segment's metadata devices: metadata_devices and seg_metadata_le_ranges
The devices and metadata_devices report devices in this format:
"device_name(extent_start)"
The seg_pe_ranges and seg_metadata_le_ranges report devices in
this format:
"device_name:extent_start-extent_end"
This patch reverts partly what commit 7f74a99502
(v 2.02.140) introduced in this area - it added [] for
hidden devices to mark them for all four fields mentioned above.
We won't be marking hidden devices in devices and metadata_devices
fields.
The seg_metadata_le_ranges field will have hidden devices marked -
it's new enough that we don't need to care about compatibility much
yet.
The seg_pe_ranges is old enough that we shouldn't be changing this
one - so we're reverting to not marking hidden devices here.
Instead, there's going to be a new field "seg_le_ranges" which
is going to replace the seg_pe_ranges and it will mark hidden devices -
this is going to be introduced in a patch later.
So in the end we'll end up with:
(LV segment's devices)
devices field with "device_name(extent_start)" format, not marking hidden devices
seg_pe_ranges field with "device_name:extent_start-extent_end" format, not marking hidden devices (deprecated, new seg_le_ranges should be used instead for standardized format)
seg_le_ranges field with "device_name:extent_start-extent_end" format, marking hidden devices
(LV segment's metadata devices)
metadata_devices field with "device_name:extent_start-extent_end" format, not marking hidden devices
seg_metadata_le_ranges field with "device_name:extent_start-extent_end" format, marking hidden devices
Also, both seg_le_ranges and seg_metadata_le_ranges will honour the
report/list_item_separator setting which can be used to configure
the delimiter used for list items.
So, to sum it up, we will recommend using the new seg_le_ranges and
seg_metadata_le_ranges fields because they display devices with
standard extent range format, they can mark hidden devices and they
honour the report/list_item_separator setting.
We'll be keeping devices,seg_pe_ranges and metadata_devices fields
for compatibility.
Thin pool discard mode set in metadata can be different from the one
actually used if any device underneath does not support that mode. Add
kernel_discard report field to make it possible to see this difference.
To handle multiple VGs with the same name.
Simply using the VG name is ambiguous, and
lvmetad requires the VG uuid be used to
specify which one is meant.
When reading older lvm2 metadata for cache-pool - we now handle more
extended syntax - basically we want to enter most setting when
actually creating cached LV.
For this new validation code has been added. However older metadata
without new settings set is now found as invalid.
Fix it by adding default settings for cache policy mq
and cache mode writethrough.
Use delay_dev to slow down mirror sync so we could more
easily check for race and proper reject of parallel mirror
leg addition/reduction.
Also expose fail in mirror allocation of parallel leg.
If two PVs have different VGs with the same name
(different uuids), one of the VGs is ignored by
lvmetad. A FIXME exists in lvmetad to find a
better response.
Drop already tested 'threshold & create' which is in
lvextend-thin-full.sh
Count with now match faster 'dmeventd' wakeup on watermark
as it's now nearly instant after crossing threshold value.
If the underlaying device has actually bigger read-ahead settings,
let it pass.
But anyway switch to 512 strip-size to get really high R-A sector count.
