When the device is inserted in dev_name_confirmed() stat() is
called twice as _insert() has it's own stat() call.
Extend _insert() parameter with struct stat* - which could be used
if it has been just obtained. When NULL is passed code is
doing its own stat() call as before.
Use internal type by default for thin provisioning.
If user is not interested in thin provisiong and doesn't
have thin provisining supporting tools installed,
configure will just print warning at the end of configure
process about limited support.
Boolean algebra changes for process_each_lv_in_vg().
1st.
Drop process_lv variable since it's not needed.
2nd.
process_lv was always initilized to 0 - so the condition was always true.
It the condition (!tags_supplied && !lvargs_supplied) evaluates as "true",
process_all is already set to 1, so skip vg tags evaluation.
3rd.
Move check for matching lv name in the front of lv tags check
since this check can't be skipped for lvargs_matched counter.
If this filter evaluates to true, skip lv tags evaluation.
Thin kernel target 1.9 still does not support online resize of
thin pool metadata properly - so disable it with expectation
for much higher version - and reenable after fixing kernel.
Since activation takes only read-lock, there could be
multiple activation running in parallel.
So instead of checking before taking any real lock,
let the locking resolve the problem and just
detect if the reason for failure has been remote
exlusive activation.
It should be also faster, since each activation does
not need to do explicit lock query.
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.
In the case we have a dir with multiple objects and for
an individual object file we need special define -
allow to define it without adding extra rules.
To ensure dmeventd.o compilation will use EXTRA_FLAGS:
CFLAGS_dmeventd.o += $(EXTRA_FLAGS)
Then it's better to use:
dmeventd.o: CFLAGS += $(EXTRA_FLAGS)
At the end of lvconvert --snapshot with an active origin, the origin
gets reloaded.
Commit 57c0f72b1d ("lvconvert: use
_reload_lv on more places") accidentally replaced this with a snapshot
LV reload (which does nothing because only the origin is active).
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).
Revert 4777eb6872 which put
target_present check into init_snapshot_merge(). However
this function is also used when parsing metadata. So we would
get this present test performed even when target is not really
needed. So move this target_present test directly into lvconvert.
Fix buggy usage of "" (empty string) as a numerical string
value used for sorting.
On intel 64b platform this was typically resolve
as 0xffffff0000000000 - which is already 'close' to
UINT64_MAX which is used for _minusone64.
On other platforms it might have been giving
different numbers depends on aligment of strings.
Use proper &_minusone64 for sorting value when the reported
value is NUM.
Note: each numerical value needs to be thought about if it needs
default value &_zero64 or &_minusone64 since for cases, were
value of zero is valid, sorting should not be mixing entries
together.
Add wrapper function for dm_report_field_set_value() which returns void
and return 1, so the code could be shorter.
Add wrapper function for percent display _field_set_percent().
There's a tiny race when suspending the device which is part
of the refresh because when suspend ioctl is performed, the
dm kernel driver executes (do_suspend and dm_suspend kernel fn):
step 1: a check whether the dev is already suspended and
if yes it returns success immediately as there's
nothing to do
step 2: it grabs the suspend lock
step 3: another check whether the dev is already suspended
and if found suspended, it exits with -EINVAL now
The race can occur in between step 1 and step 2. To prevent
premature autoactivation failure, we're using a simple retry
logic here before we fail completely. For a complete solution,
we need to fix the locking so there's no possibility for suspend
calls to interleave each other to cause this kind of race.
This is just a workaround. Remove it and replace it with proper
locking once we have that in!
