An incorrect fix on July 13, 2010 for an annoyance has caused a regression.
The offending check-in was part of the 2.02.71 release of LVM. That
check-in caused any PVs specified on the command line to be ignored when
performing a mirror split.
This patch reverses the aforementioned check-in (solving the regressions)
and posits a new solution to the list reversal problem. The original
problem was that we would always take the lowest mimage LVs from a mirror
when performing a split, but what we really want is to take the highest
mimage LVs. This patch accomplishes that by working through the list in
reverse order - choosing the higher numbered mimages first. (This also
reduces the amount of processing necessary.)

To handle a double failure of a mirrored log, Jon's two patches are
commited, however, lvconvert command can't still handle an error
when mirror leg and mirrored log got failure at the same time.

[Patch]: Handle both devices of a mirrored log failing (bug 607347) -
additional fix
posted: https://www.redhat.com/archives/lvm-devel/2010-July/msg00093.html
commit: https://www.redhat.com/archives/lvm-devel/2010-July/msg00101.html
In the second patch, the target type of mirrored log is replaced with
error target when remove_log is set to 1, but this procedure should be
also used in other cases such as the number of mirror leg is 1. This
patch relocates the procedure to the main path.
In addition, I added following three changes.
- Removed tmp_orphan_lvs handling procedure
It seems that _delete_lv() can handle detached_log_lv properly
without adding mirror legs in mirrored log to tmp_orphan_lvs.
Therefore, I removed the procedure.
- Removed vg_write()/vg_commit()
Metadata is saved by vg_write()/vg_commit() just after detached_log_lv
is handled. Therefore, I removed vg_write()/vg_commit().
- With Jon's second patch, we think that we don't have to call
remove_mirror_log() in _lv_update_mirrored_log() because will be
handled remove_mirror_images() in _lvconvert_mirrors_repaire().

The cluster log daemon (cmirrord) is not multi-threaded and
can handle only one request at a time. When a log is stacked
on top of a mirror (which itself contains a 'core' log), it
creates a situation that cannot be solved without threading.
When the top level mirror issues a "resume", the log daemon
attempts to read from the log device to retrieve the log
state. However, the log is a mirror which, before issuing
the read, attempts to determine the 'sync' status of the
region of the mirror which is to be read. This sync status
request cannot be completed by the daemon because it is
blocked on a read I/O to the very mirror requesting the
sync status.
With mirror_log_fault_policy of 'remove' and mirror_image_fault_policy
of 'allocate', the log type of the mirror volume is converted from
'disk' or 'mirrored' to 'core' when all mirror legs but one in a mirror
volume broke.
Keep new_log_count as a number of valid log devices by using log_count
variable for a temporary usage in the first phase of error recovery
in _lvconvert_mirrors_repair().

When splitting off mirror images from a mirror, we always take
LVs from the end of a list. For example, if the mirror sub-devices
are lv_mimage_[012], we should select lv_mimage_2 if splitting off
one image. However, lv_mimage_0 was being selected instead.
The problem came from calling '_move_removable_mimages_to_end'
when it was unnecessary to do so. When the user /does/ specify
specific devices to be removed, this function properly moved the
appropriate LVs to the end of the list for extraction. However,
if the user /doesn't/ give any specific PVs, the function should
do nothing. '_move_removable_mimages_to_end' was keying off of
whether 'removable_pvs' was NULL or not and this value was
improperly being populated with the set of all available PVs.
This was causing '_move_removable_mimages_to_end' to completely
reverse the list, which in turn caused us to extract the
hithertofore front-of-the-list LVs.
An unhandled condition allowed the command to terminate
cleanly without a warning. Added a check for the
'--splitmirrors' argument to allow execution to the lower
level function that has the check to see if the user is
trying to split a linear device. You should now see a
message if you try to use --splitmirrors on a linear device.
Pass metadataignore through PV creation / setup paths.
As a result of this cleanup, we can remove the unnecessary setting
of mda_ignore bits inside pvcreate_single(), after call to pv_create.
For now, just set metadataignore to '0' in some places. This is
equivalent to the prior functionality, although the 0 is given
by the caller not hardcoded in _mda_setup() call.

When using vgmetadatacopies value other than "umanaged" (0), prompt
the user if the usage of --metadataignore would change the value of
vgmetadatacopies. The main 2 cases are:
1) pvchange --metadataignore
2) vgextend --metadataignore
We leave the prompt check in the tools, and do not change anything
if the user says 'n'.
Examples:
vgextend --metadataignore y vgtest /dev/loop0
Setting metadataignore will override preferred number of copies of VG vgtest metadata.
Are you sure? [y/n]: y
No physical volume label read from /dev/loop0
Physical volume "/dev/loop0" successfully created
Volume group "vgtest" successfully extended
pvchange --metadataignore y /dev/loop3
Setting metadataignore on /dev/loop3 will override preferred number of copies of VG vgtest metadata.
Are you sure? [y/n]: y
WARNING: Changing preferred number of copies of VG vgtest metadata from 3 to 2
Physical volume "/dev/loop3" changed
1 physical volume changed / 0 physical volumes not changed

Rather than attempting to remove all the images of a mirrored
log volume via remove_mirror_images, simply remove the log
if all its devices have failed.
Taka was the first to report that there is still an outstanding
issue with handling this case. I've managed to reproduce it
only very rarely, and am still working on identifying the problem.
Failing to handle the problem rarely is better than not handling
the scenario at all, so I'm checking this in.
Allow metadataignore flag to be passed in to pvcreate.
Ideally, more refactoring of the mda allocation / initialization
is warranted, but for now, we just add another parameter to 'add_mda'
to take an existing mda ignored flag. We need to do this or pv_write
loses the state of the mda 'ignored' flag before copying and writing
to disk.
In preparation to call this from both pvcreate as well as pvchange,
move the guts of metadataignore into a library function.

Allowing an 'all' and 'unmanaged' value is more intuitive, and
provides a simple way for users to get back to original LVM behavior
of metadata written to all PVs in the volume group.
If the user requests "--vgmetadatacopies unmanaged", this instructs
LVM not to manage the ignore bits to achieve a specific number of
metadata copies in the volume group. The user is free to use
"pvchange --metadataignore" to control the mdas on a per-PV basis.
If the user requests "--vgmetadatacopies all", this instructs LVM
to do 2 things: 1) clear all ignore bits, and 2) set the "unmanaged"
policy going forward.
Internally, we use the special MAX_UINT32 value to indicate 'all'.
This 'just' works since it's the largest value possible for the
field and so all 'ignore' bits on all mdas in the VG will get
cleared inside _vg_metadata_balance(). However, after we've
called the _vg_metadata_balance function, we check for the special
'all' value, and if set, we write the "unmanaged" value into the
metadata. As such, the 'all' value is never written to disk.

Now that we have both --pvmetadatacopies and --vgmetadatacopies,
we need to make sure --metadatacopies gets interpreted correctly.
For pv commands, --metadatacopies should imply --pvmetadatacopies,
and for vg commands, --vgmetadatacopies.
Note: this will change the behavior of vgcreate with --metadatacopies
to be a synonym for --vgmetadatacopies. Previously, --metadatacopies
would apply to any PVs given with vgcreate that needed an implicit
pvcreate. As a result, one small change is needed to one of the nightly
tests - t-vgcreate-usage.

When vgmerge is called we move the mdas from the source to the
destination. With metadata balancing we now have another mda
list, fid->metadata_areas_ignored, so move the mdas on this list
as well.
This patch should not matter as the code is written today. However
we include it for completeness in the case that _vgmerge_single()
is refactored and/or moved into a library function.

When a user explicitly sets a new mda ignore value for a PV, we
should update vg_mda_copies accordingly. When the VG is written
out, the user would not want the new ignore state to get lost as
a result of the vg_mda_copies value and logic in the vg_write
path.

Add a field to struct volume_group to later implement metadata
balancing:
- mda_copies: target # of non-ignored mdas in the VG; default 0 (do
not control pv 'ignore mdas' bit.
This patch just adds the parameter to the structures with the default
values but does not modify any commands. Should be no functional change.

This patch just modifies pvchange to call the underlying ignore
