Support internal removal of 'cache origin' volume - which we
do not normally expose to a user - however internal processing
loops may hit this condition (depending on order of list LVs).
So when this operation is internally requested - we automatically
try to remove it's 'holding' LV (cache LV) - which will also
remove the origin.
Resuming of 'error' table entry followed with it's dirrect removal
is now troublesame with latest udev as it may skip processing of
udev rules for already 'dropped' device nodes.
As we cannot 'synchronize' with udev while we know we have devices
in suspended state - rework 'cleanup' so it collects nodes
for removal into pending_delete list and process the list with
synchronization once we are without any suspended nodes.
Between 'resume' and 'remove' we need to wait for udev to synchronize,
otherwise udev may 'skip' resume event processing if the udev node
is already gone.
When pvmove is finished, we do a tricky operation since we try to
resume multiple different device that were all joined into 1 big tree.
Currently we use the infromation from existing live DM table,
where we can get list of all holders of pvmove device.
We look for these nodes (by uuid) in new metadata, and we do now a full
regular device add into dm tree structure. All devices should be
already PRELOAD with correct table before entering suspend state,
however for correctly working readahead we need to put correct info
also into RESUME tree. Since table are preloaded, the same table
is skip and resume, but correct read ahead is now set.
The OPTIONS+="event_timeout" is Unsupported since systemd/udev version 216,
that is ~5 years ago.
Since systemd/udev version 243, there's a new message printed if unsupported
OPTIONS value is used:
Invalid value for OPTIONS key, ignoring: 'event_timeout=180'

Recent kernel version from kernel commit:
de7180ff908b2bc0342e832dbdaa9a5f1ecaa33a
started to report in cache status line new flag:
no_discard_passdown
Whenever lvm spots unknown status it reports:
Unknown feature in status:
So add reconginzing this feature flag and also report this with
'lvs -o+kernel_discards'
When no_discard_passdown is found in status 'nopassdown' gets reported
for this field (roughly matching what we report for thin-pools).
To avoid tiny race on checking arrival of signal and entering select
(that can latter remain stuck as signal was already delivered) switch
to use pselect().
If it would needed, we can eventually add extra code for older systems
without pselect(), but there are probably no such ancient systems in
use.
We already used Conflicts=shutdown target to stop LVM2 services on shutdown.
But we still missed the ordering - the shutdown.target should be reached
only after all the services are really stopped.
Reported here: https://github.com/lvmteam/lvm2/issues/17
When data are growing, adapt also size of metadata.
As we get way too many reports from users doing huge growths of
data portion while keep metadata small and avoiding using monitoring.
So to enhance the user-experience in case user requests grown of
thin-pool (without passing PV list for growth) - lvm2 will automaticaly
grown also the metadata part of thin-pool (if possible).
Udev is running udev-rule action upon 'resume'.
However lvm2 in special case is doing replacement of
'soon-to-be-removed' device with 'error' target for resuming
and then follows actual removal - the sequence is usually quick,
so when udev start action - it can result in 'strange' error
message in kernel log like:
Process '/usr/sbin/dmsetup info -j 253 -m 17 -c --nameprefixes --noheadings --rows -o name,uuid,suspended' failed with exit code 1.
To avoid this - we need to ensure there is synchronization wait for udev
between 'resume' and 'remove' part of this process.
However existing code put strict requirement to avoid synchronizing with
udev inside critical section - but this originally came from requirement
to not do anything special while there could be devices in
suspend-state. Now we are able to see differnce between critical section
with or without suspended devices. For udev synchronization only
suspended devices are prohibited to be there - so slightly relax
condition and allow calling and using 'fs_sync()' even inside critical
section - but there must not be any suspended device.
Allow using caching with VDO.
User can either cache a single vdopool or
a vdo LV - difference when the caching is put-in depends on a use-case
and it's upto user to decide which kind of speed is expected.
Internal detection of SCSI device being in-use by DM mpath has been
performed several times for each component device - this could be
eventually racy - so instead when we do remember 1st. checked result
for device being mpath and use it consistenly over the filter runtime.
Move DM usage into dev_manager.c source file.
Also convert STATUS to INFO ioctl - as that's enough
to obtain UUID - this also avoid issuing unwanted flush on checked DM
device for being mpath.
Whenever thin-pool chunk size is unspecified and left for lvm calculation
try to select the size as nearest highest power-of-2 instead of
just being a multiple of 64KiB.
Now with newer VDO kvdo target we can start to use standard mechanism
to enable resize of VDO volumes.
VDO pool can be grown.
Virtual volume grows on top of VDO pool when is not big enough.
Reduced VDOLV is calling discard for reduced areas - this can
take long time!
TODO: implement some pollable mechanism for out-of-lock TRIM.
When using 'lvcreate -l100%VG' and there is big disproportion between
real available space and requested setting - automatically fallback
to 100%FREE.
Difference can be seen when VG is big and already most space was
allocated, so the requestion 100%VG can end (and by spec for % modifier
it's correct) as LV with size of 1%VG. Usually this is not a big
problem - buit in some cases - like cache-pool allocation, this
can result a big difference for chunksize selection.
With this patch it's more closely match common-sense logic without
the need of reitteration of too big changes in lvm2 core ATM.
TODO: in the future there should be allocator solving all allocations
in a single call.
When using caches with BIG pool size (>TB) there is required
to use relatively huge chunk size. Once the chunksize has
got over 1MiB - kernel cache target stopped writing such chunks
back on this if the migration_threshold remained on default 1MiB
(2048 sectors) size.
This patch ensure, DM layer will not let pass table line which
has not big enough migration threshold that can let pass
at least 8 chunks (independently of lvm2 metadata).
lvm uses 'minimum_io_size' name to exactly match VDO naming here,
however in all common cases _size is using 'sector/512b' unit.
But in this case the value is in bytes and can have only 2 values:
either 512 or 4096.
It's probably not worth to rename it internaly, so we can just
drop comment - instead of using 1 or 8.
Thought let's think about it....
The systemd generators are executed very early during the switch
from initramfs to system partition and the syslog is not yet fully
operational - it may cause blocking, if some debug logging is enabled
at the same time in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf log{} section.
To avoid timeouting and killing this generator - rather enhance lvm
code to suppress any syslog communication when LVM_SUPPRESS_SYSLOG
envvar is set.
Use of this envvar is needed since the parsing of i.e. cmdline options
that could eventually override lvm.conf setting happens in this case
way too late and number of lines could have been already streamed to
syslog.
Fix a scenario where global/event_activation setting is not found. In
this case we need to take default value just like lvm tools do when
executed. So use "lvmconfig --type full".
Also, if we fail to execute lvmconfig for whatever reason, fallback to
generating the activation units as failsafe action.

Drop very old original format of VDO target and focus on V2 version.
So some variables were renamed or replaced.
There is no compatibility preserved (with assumption so far this is
experimental feature and there is no real user).
Note - version currently VDO calls this version 6.2.
Scenario: Given an existed LV `lvol0`, I want to create another LV
on the PVs used by `lvol0`.
I use `build_parallel_areas_from_lv()` to obtain the `pv_list` of each segments.
However, the returned `pv_list` is not properly initialized, which causes
segfault in subsequent operations.
There's a small window during creation of a new RaidLV when
rmeta SubLVs are made visible to wipe them in order to prevent
erroneous discovery of stale RAID metadata. In case a crash
prevents the SubLVs from being committed hidden after such
wiping, the RaidLV can still be activated with the SubLVs visible.
During deactivation though, a deadlock occurs because the visible
SubLVs are deactivated before the RaidLV.
The patch adds _check_raid_sublvs to the raid validation in merge.c,
an activation check to activate.c (paranoid, because the merge.c check
will prevent activation in case of visible SubLVs) and shares the
existing wiping function _clear_lvs in raid_manip.c moved to lv_manip.c
and renamed to activate_and_wipe_lvlist to remove code duplication.
Whilst on it, introduce activate_and_wipe_lv to share with
(lvconvert|lvchange).c.

Thin plugin started to use configuble setting to allow to configure
usage of external scripts - however to read this value it needed to
execute internal command as dmeventd itself has no access to lvm.conf
and the API for dmeventd plugin has been kept stable.
The call of command itself was not normally 'a big issue' until users
started to use higher number of monitored LVs and execution of command
got stuck because other monitored resource already started to execute
some other lvm2 command and become blocked waiting on VG lock.
This scenario revealed necesity to somehow avoid calling lvm2 command
during resource registration - but this requires bigger changes - so
meanwhile this patch tries to minimize the possibility to hit this race
by obtaining any configurable setting just once - such patch is small
and covers majority of problem - yet better solution needs to be
introduced likely with bigger rework of dmeventd.
TODO: avoid blocking registration of resource with execution of lvm2
commands since those can get stuck waiting on mutexes.

This is the number of concurrent async io requests that
the scan layer will submit to the bcache layer. There
will be an open fd for each of these, so it is best to
keep this well below the default limit for max open files
(1024), otherwise lvm may get EMFILE from open(2) when
there are around 1024 devices to scan on the system.

With improved mirror activation code --splitmirror issue poppedup
since there was missing proper preload code and deactivation
for splitted mirror leg.
Amound of linked libraries grows.
Most of them we don't need to lock in, since we are not using
them in locked section, so skip locking them in memory.
When pvmoving LV - the target for LV is a mirror so the validation
that checked the type is matching was incorrect.
While we need a more generic enhancment of LVS output for pvmoved LVs,
for now at least stop showing internal errors and 'X' symbols in attrs.
In case "lvconvert -mN RaidLV" was used on a degraded
raid1 LV, success was returned instead of an error.
Provide message to inform about the need to repair first
before changing number of mirrors and exit with error.
Add new lvconvert-m-raid1-degraded.sh test.

When adjusting region size for clustered VG it always needs to fit
2 full bitset into 1MB due to old limits of CPG.
This is relatively big amount of bits, but we have still limitation
for region size to fit into 32bits (0x8000000).
So for too big mirrors this operation needs to fail - so whenever
function returns now 0, it means we can't find matching region_size.
Since return 0 is now 'error' we need to also pass proper region_size
when creating pvmove mirror.
Since extent_size is no longer power_of_2 this max region size
evalution was rather producing random bitsize as a combination
of lowest bit from number of extents and extent size itself.
Correct calculation to use whole LV size and pick biggest
possible power of 2 value smaller then UINT32_MAX.
Drop mirrored mirror log limitation that applies only in very limited
use-case and actually mirrored mirror log is deprecated anyway.
So 'disk' mirror log is selecting the correct minimal size, and
bigger size is only enforced with real mirrored mirror log.
Also for mirrored mirror log we let use 'smalled' region size if needed
so if user uses 1G region size, we still keep small mirror log
with much smaller region size in this case when needed.
Also mirror log extent calculation is now properly detecting error
with too big mirrors where previosly trimmed uint32_t was applies
unintentionally.
Whenever we make visible LV out of previously invisible one,

User has no other 'effective' method to wait for mirror getting in-sync.
The current logic that avoids setting SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS
on "change" events is flawed in the default "systemd background job"
configuration. For systemd, it's important that device properties don't
change spuriously.
If an "add" event starts lvm2-pvscan@.service for a device, and a
"change" event follows, removing SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS from the
udev db, information about unit dependencies between the device and the
pvscan service can be lost in systemd, in particular if the daemon
configuration is reloaded.
Steps to reproduce problem:
- create a device with an LVM PV
- remove device
- add device (generates "add" and "change" uevents for the device)
(at this point SYSTEMD_ALIAS and SYSTEMD_WANTS are clear in udev db)
- systemctl daemon-reload
(systemd reloads udev db)
- vgchange -a n
- remove device
=> the lvm2-pvscan@.service for the device is still active although the
device is gone.
- add device again
=> the PV is not detected, because systemd sees the lvm2-pvscan@.service
as active and thus doesn't restart it.
The original purpose of this logic was to avoid volumes being scanned
over and over again. With systemd background jobs, that isn't necessary,
because systemd will not restart the job as long as it's active.
Signed-off-by: Martin Wilck <mwilck@suse.com>
Make the distinction between the cases with and without systemd
background jobs explicit in 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules rather than
substituting the rule from the Makefile. At this stage,
this improves only readibility, at the cost of one GOTO statement.
This patch introduces no functional change to the udev rules.

Test that no (Sub)LV remnants persist if the volume group is

Only policy 'smq' is meant to be used with format version 2.
Code used to let pass 'mq' policy also with format 2. But 'mq'
is obsoloted wth smq and kernel currently matches it. But this
is incompatible with older original mq logic - so disallow creation
of this rather useless combination.
If the tools for checking thin_pool or cache metadata are missing,
issue rather just a WARNING, but let the operation of activation
continue.
This has the advantage, the if user is missing those tools,
but he already started to use thinpool or cacheing, he can
access these volumes with a WARNING.
Also if the user is using too old tools i.e. for CacheV2 format
dmpd tool 0.7 is required - provide informative WARNING and
skip failure from older tool version which can't understand
new format V2.
In case a newly created RaidLV is blacklisted using config
\"activation { volume list = [ ... ] }\" (i.e. its SubLVs stay inactive),
the metadata SubLVs can't get wiped thus failing the creation.
As a result, the RaidLV together with its SubLVs
is left behind in an inconsistent state.
Fix by removing the RaidLV and provide a hint about volume_list reasoning.

Introduce prioritized_section() as a closer match to previous logic
of critical_section() that has been held over longer sequence of
ioctl commands - essentially it's matching operation on a single
cookie.
While 'critical_section()' now corresponds to locked memory - we hold
this memory only between suspend/resume thus notion of 'cookie' was
lost.
This patch restores some logic unintentionaly lost with dropping
memory locking for just activation/deactivation calls.
With these read errors it's useful to know the reason.
Also avoid to log error just once so we know exactly
how many times we did failing read.
On the other hand reduce repeated log_error() on code 'backtrace'
path and change severity of message to just log_debug() so the
actual read error is printed once for one read.
Just like lvm2 has internal devices like _tdata which is using UUID with
suffix, there is similar private type of device for crypto device where
they are using CRYPT-TEMP uuid prefix.
Also ignore stratis.
Some kernel version suffer from bad state transition where a device
steps into 'frozen' mode. Any application that tries to read such
raid gets unfortunatelly bloked.
As some sort of protection try to skip such raid device from being
scanned to minimize chances to block lvm2 command on such scan.
When such device is found, warning gets printed.
RaidLVs on read_only_volume_list have their SubLVs
activated readonly thus disabling metadata updates
or image resynchronization/recovery. Bug also causes
automatic repairs to fail.
Fix by always activating the RAID SubLVs readwrite.

When snapshot is created in read-only mode with 'lvcreate -s -pr...',
lvm2 still needs to be able to write to layered -cow volume
to store metadata and exceptions blocks.
TODO: in some case we might be able to do full tree with read-only
volume but this probably needs futher validation:
1. checking snapshot header already exist
2. origin & snapshot are both in read-only mode.
Occasionaly users may need to peek into 'component devices.
Normally lvm2 does not let users activation component.
This patch adds special mode where user can activate
component LV in a 'read-only' mode i.e.:
lvchange -ay vg/pool_tdata
All devices can be deactivated with:
lvchange -an vg | vgchange -an....
Introduce:
lv_is_component() check is LV is actually a component device.
lv_component_is_active() checking if any component device is active.
lv_holder_is_active() is any component holding device is active.
Instead of checking with existing size of external origin LV,
use correctly the new 'wanted' size of this LV whether it fits
the limitiation requirements for older thin-pool target.
Otherwise code started to the the resize, updates metadata and
just fails during 'resize' in case the LV was active. For
inactive LV operation could have actually passed.
Fix missing 'externalLV' traversing for thins with external origins.
Replace extra for_each_sub_lv_except_pools() with better
internal logic allowing selectively to cut of processed subLV tree.
Extend error code for function 'fn()' when it returns -1 it will
stop futher tree scan for given LV.
Also a bit simplify code to have only one place that
is calling 'fn()' and use level counter to know
depth of traversing.
Update renaming travering to skip trees for pools
and external origins.
While 'file-locking' code always dropped cached VG before
lock was taken - other locking types actually missed this.
So while the cache dropping has been implement for i.e. clvmd,
actually running command in cluster keept using cache even
when the lock has been i.e. dropped and taken again.
This rather 'hard-to-hit' error was noticable in some
tests running in cluster where content of PV has been
changed (metadata-balance.sh)
Fix the code by moving cache dropping directly lock_vol() function.
TODO: it's kind of strange we should ever need drop_cached_metadata()
used in several places - this all should happen automatically
this some futher thinking here is likely needed.
Avoid using same return code for reporting 2 different things
and stricly report error code by return value and add new
parameter for reporting monitoring status.
This makes easier to recognize which error we got from dm_event
and continue only with ENOENT.
Check if the generated vg name still fits the buffer.
So too long strings are rejected.
Drop -1 from size passed to snprintf - as the \0 is already included.
With pthreaded daemons like 'dmeventd' using liblvm via plugin,
lvm2 actually should not 'play' with streams at all - as there
could be parallel outputs running.
As a current quick workaround just disable change for pthreaded
program (gettid() != getpid()).
TODO: it's possible the change of buffering actually doesn't serve us
any measurable benefit and could be dropped as whole later...

Use properly exclusive activation when reactivating origin after
snapshot merge (since origin must have been previously also exlusively
activated).
Same applies when converting volumes to thin-pool or cache.
Previously used 'only' local activation incorrectly allowed local
activation of some targets (i.e. raid) - thus 'leaking' chance to
activate same device on another node - which can be a problem
for device types like raid.
If the data being requested is present in last_[extra_]devbuf,
return that directly instead of reading it from disk again.
Typical LVM2 access patterns request data within two adjacent 4k blocks
so we eliminate some read() system calls by always reading at least 8k.
If it obtains the data, it passes it into the supplied callback function
and returns 1. Otherwise the callback receives failed = 1.
Updated config_file_read_fd to use this and similarly return the data
via a callback fn of its own.
Rename dev_read() to dev_read_buf() - the function that reads data
into a supplied buffer.
Introduce a new dev_read() that allocates the buffer it returns and
switch the important users over to this. No caller may change the
returned data. (For now, callers are responsible for freeing it after
use, but later the device layer will take full ownership.)
dev_read_buf() should only be used for tiny buffers or unimportant code
(such as the old disk formats).
If there is sufficient space in the metadata area, align the next
metadata to a disk offset that is a multiple of 4096 bytes and
don't write it circularly. If it doesn't all fit at the end
of the metadata area, go back to the start and write it all there
contiguously.
If there is insufficient space to use the new stricter rules, revert to
the original behaviour, aligning on 512-byte boundaries wrapping around
the circular buffer as required.
Even after writing some metadata encountered problems, some commands
continue (rightly or wrongly) and attempt to make further changes.
Once an mda is marked MDA_FAILED, don't try to use it again.
This also applies when reverting, where one loop already skips
failed mdas but the other doesn't.
This fixes some device open_count warnings on relevant failure paths.
Use new ALIGN_ABSOLUTE macro when calculating the start location
of new metadata and adjust the end of buffer detection so that
there is no longer an imposed gap between old and new metadata.
lvmdbusd executable script must use python3 interpreter detected by
configure script, as site-packages directory used for library is only
used by that interpreter.
Introduce enum dev_io_reason to categorise block device I/O
in debug messages so it's obvious what it is for.
DEV_IO_SIGNATURES /* Scanning device signatures */
DEV_IO_LABEL /* LVM PV disk label */
DEV_IO_MDA_HEADER /* Text format metadata area header */
DEV_IO_MDA_CONTENT /* Text format metadata area content */
DEV_IO_FMT1 /* Original LVM1 metadata format */
DEV_IO_POOL /* Pool metadata format */
DEV_IO_LV /* Content written to an LV */
DEV_IO_LOG /* Logging messages */
When entering any critical section, lvm2 used to lock process memory
and raised task priority to avoid problem with page swapping and minimize
time of having non-resumed devices in table.
With this patch, memory locking which which is expensive is only used when
entering 'suspending' section as only in this section there is risk
lvm could be suspending a device which later can be needed for paging.
Raised priority is still kept for all section entrances as this is
low-cost operation and may accelerate table resumes - although the real
impact can be still considered later.
When pvmove is finished and metadata are updated, the code missed
to merge possible mergable segments - so add explicit merging
call after pvmoved volumes are unlocked.
This avoids weird results where i.e. lvs could have been reporting
non-matching segments as lvs upon metadata read is doing silent segment
merging while dm table left after pvmove was still preserving
non-merged segments.
When large size number (>2^31) is given on command line it could be
misdetected and in certain cases lead to wrongly casted number.
So make sure all cases always do set _MAX number in case the value would
not fit within the supported range instead of getting some random value
within the range.
In most cases this was not a problem to detect, but i.e. stripesize
parameter might have been fooled by certain large numbers.
Rewrite validation of stripes and stripe_size args into more readable
sequential code.
Extend reading of stripes & stripes_size args so it better knows
defaults for types like striped raid.
TODO: this should really be a value obtained for segtype structure and
all the weird conditions and modification of stripes and stripe_size
around lvm2 code should be dropped.
When pvmove is finished and does 'suspend/resume' on PVMOVE LV,
on resume path committed metadata are already showing 'standalone'
pvmove LV prepared just for removal.
However code should be able to 'resume' preloaded LV there were
participating in pvmove operation.
Previously this was all done in the 'tools' part of lvm2 code.
So the lvconvert upon pvmove finish had to explicitely call 'resume' on every such LV.
Now 'smarted' activation code is able to deduce and combine all information from
the active dm table and committed metadata so single call resolves
it all in one go.
Internally holders are detected by reading sysfs directory to capture
all needed UUID which are then looked in lvm2 metadata and all such
LVs are automatically collected into dmtree.
Only thin-pool with origin_only suspend is allowed to be not suspending anything.
In such case pairing resume will 'decrement' critical section counter.
Just like suspend handles preload for pvmove finish,
in similar way handle suspend of starting pvmove.
In this case the precommited metadata are checked for list of PVMOVEed
LVs and those are suspended in with committed metadata.
When activation of LVs fails prior pvmove start, try to deactivate
already activated LVs.
TODO: possibly remember which LVs where already activate and only those
take down - devices which are already in-use will stay active.
Only lv_committed() now uses vg->vg_committed and it appears redundant
if its contents match the enclosing VG so don't waste cycles creating it
when that's known to be true when no write lock is held so the struct
won't get modified.
The persistent filter should not be imported by any command that doesn't
use it so take addtional note of REQUIRES_FULL_LABEL_SCAN (for vgrename)
and introduce IGNORE_PERSISTENT_FILTER for vgscan and pvscan.
In HA cluster, we have "clvm" resource agent to manage clvmd daemon.
The agent invokes clvmd like: "clvmd -T90 -d0", which always prints
a scaring error message:
"""
local socket: connect failed: No such file or directory
"""
When specifed with "-d" option, clvmd tries to check if an instance
of the clvmd daemon is already running through a testing connection.
The connect() will fail with this ENOENT error in such case, so supress
the error message in such case.

Since 4fa5add6b1 ("pvcreate: Wipe cached
bootloaderarea when wiping label.") label_remove is responsible
for the lvmcache_del. (toollib and liblvm need fixing to share
the code.)
Correct reported message when thin snapshot has been already merged.
So lvm2 is no longer reporting "Mergins of snapshot X will occur..."
(even with swapped names).
When an ignored metadata area gets flagged for use again, make sure the
code doesn't try to parse its old metadata. Firstly by trying to detect
this situation and skipping the read (while still remembering the
position reached in the circular buffer), and secondly by clearing the
invalid live metadata location on disk as a precaution when subsequently
writing out the precommitted metadata.
Problems showed up when a metadata area in one VG got moved to
another VG in ignored state (still holding metadata for the original
VG) and then later got brought into use in the new VG - only the header
should be read in this case, not any of the metadata content.
vgsplit shares the vg_rename code so that must only set the PV_MOVED_VG
flag introduced in commit 486ed10848
("vgmerge: Fix intermediate metadata corruption") on PVs that moved.
Last patch missed to mention, we've improved/fixed generated paths
in units and init.d shell scripts when lvm2 was plainly configured
with just i.e. --prefix.
Note: some distros might have fully specified --sbindir and
--usrsbindir - thus those very not seeing problems in generated paths.
Do not allow to take snapshot of mirror/raid leg or log or metadata LV.
This was actually never supported, but user was able to create it,
and this put device stack in hardly fixable state (needs manual work).
This prevents such creation to pass.
Also improve validation when recreating snapshot volume type
from origin and COW volume.
Correction to function for extracting vgname out of lvconvert
parameters.
Avoid repeating some checks.
Add code to handle generic options which may provide vgname in its argument
and compare them all so they match to a single vgname (otherwise it's a
error).
Extract default (envvar) vgname only when no position nor optional vgname is
found.
Fixing regression instroduce with patchset started with commit:
1e2420bca8 (2.02.169)
lvcreate supports a 'conversion' when caching LV.
This normally worked fine, however in case passed LV was
thin-pool's data LV with suffix _tdata we have failed to early.
As the easiest fix looks dropping validation of name when
caching type is select - such name check will happen later
once the VG is opened again and properly detect if the LV
with protected name already exists and can be converted,
or will be rejected as ambigiuous operation requiring user
to specify --type cache | --type cache-pool.
Replaced the confusing device error message "not found (or ignored by
filtering)" by either "not found" or "excluded by a filter".
(Later we should be able to say which filter.)
Left the the liblvm code paths alone.
Activation lock has a primary purpose to serialize locking of individual
LV in case there is no other protecting mechanism for parallel
execution.
However in the case an activated LV is composed from several other LVs,
noone should be able to manipulate with those LVs as well.
This patch add a very 'naive' global VG activation locking in this case.
In the future we may introduce smarter function detecting minimal closed
graph components if this will appear as bottleneck
Patch checks if the VG Write lock is held - in this case we do not
need any more locking - command has exclusive access to VG.
In case we have clustered VG and we are activating an LV which does not
need other LVs - we also do not need any more locks.
In all other cases take respective lock - for single LV - use lvid,
for complex LVs use vgname.
vgmerge suffers from a similar problem to the one fixed in commit
8146548d25 ("vgsplit: Fix intermediate
metadata corruption.")
When merging, splitting or renaming VGs, use a new PV status flag
PV_MOVED_VG to mark the PVs that hold metadata with the old VG name and
use this to provide PV-level granularity instead of incorrectly assuming
all PVs in the VG are the same.
Changing the VG of a PV uses the same on-disk mechanism as vgrename.
This relies on recognising both the old and new VG names. Prior to this
patch the vgsplit code incorrectly provided the new VG name twice
instead of the old and new ones. This lead the low-level mechanism not
to recognise the device as already belonging to a VG and so paying no
attention to the location of its existing metadata, sometimes partly
overwriting it and then later trying to read the corrupt metadata and
issuing a checksum error.
In a shared VG, only allow pvmove with a named LV,
so that only PE's used by the LV will be moved.
The LV is then activated exclusively, ensuring that
the PE's being moved are not used from another host.
Previously, pvmove was mistakenly allowed on a full PV.
This won't work when LVs using that PV are active on
other hosts.
Enable handling of --poolmetadataspare so if user can prevent
creation of _pmspare volume during --repair operation (just
like during actual lvcreate or lvconvert) for pool volumes.
When file-locking mode failed on locking, such description was leaked
(typically not an issue since command usually exists afterwards).
So shirt close() at the end of function and use it in all error paths.
Also make sure, when interrrupt is detected, it's really not holding
lock and returns 0.
Fix code checking that the 2nd mda which is at the end of disk really
fits the available free space and avoid any DA and MDA interleaving when
we already have DA preallocated. This mainly applies when we're restoring
a PV from VG backup using pvcreate --restorefile where we may already have
some DA preallocated - this means the PV was in a VG before with already
allocated space from it (the LVs were created). Hence we need to avoid
stepping into DA - the MDA can never ever be inside in such case!
The code responsible for this calculation was already in
_text_pv_add_metadata_area fn, but it had a bug in the calculation where
we subtracted one more sector by mistake and then the code could still
incorrectly allocate the MDA inside existing DA. The patch also renames
the variable in the code so it doesn't confuse us in future.
Also, if the 2nd mda doesn't fit, don't silently continue with just 1
MDA (at the start of the disk). If 2nd mda was requested and we can't
create that due to unavailable space, error out correctly (the patch
also adds a test to shell/pvcreate-operation.sh for this case).
If the PV was originally created with a larger-than-default
metadata area the restored one wasn't and might not even be
large enough to hold the metadata!
Previously the cache remembered an existing bootloaderarea and
reinstated it (without even checking for overlap) when asked to
write out the PV. pvcreate could write out an incorrect layout.
Avoid adding -g more then once for debug builds.
Avoid enabling DEBUG_MEM when we build multithreaded tools.
Link executables with -fPIE -pie and --export-dynamic LDFLAGS
Introduce PROGS_FLAGS to add option to pass flags for external libs.

Set shell failure mode on couple places.
lvm2 warned about zeroing and too big chunksize (>=512KiB), but
only during lvconvert, so lvcreate was creating thin-pools
without any warning about possible slowness of thin provisioning
because of zeroing.
Since _deactivate_and_remove_lvs() is used in more then one place,
move the needed udev synchronization into this function so other
users automatically get correct fs state before next dm manipulation.
Assumption here is that this udev synchronization 'delay' may also
prevent to 'early' table reloads which might cause kernel problems
for md-core - but we may need more generic time-limited reload
frequency for raid devices.
Note: on udev-less system there will be almost no delay.
Since we are reading size as (double) we can get way bigger
number then just plain int64. So to make this check actually
more valid and usable do a maxsize compare in 'double'.

Centralise editing of the client list into _add_client() and

the list gets walked.
While processing one element of the list in main_loop(),
cleanup_zombie() may be called and remove a different element, so make
sure main_loop() refreshes its list state on return. Prior to this
patch, the list edits for clients disappearing could race against the
list edits for new clients connecting and corrupt the list and cause a
variety of segfaults.
An easy way to trigger such failures was by repeatedly running shell
commands such as:
lvs &; lvs &; lvs &;...;killall -9 lvs; lvs &; lvs &;...
Situations that occasionally lead to the failures can be spotted by
looking for 'EOF' with 'inprogress=1' in the clvmd debug logs.

Basically reverting commit 58a9f88b8c.
We can use origin_only in case we are snapshot's origin,
as we do support this stack.
So when we are 'uncaching' origin+snaps - we do need to reload only
origin and we do not need to play with snaps.
'lvdisplay -m' tried to go through NULL policy settings,
when such policy was not defined for CachedLV.
Patch is fixing display of cache-pool without defined settings,
as this is now a valid pool and we mostly want users to define
these settings when actually really caching a LV.
Since cache LV can be a stacked device, there is no real reason
trying to use slight optimised tree for origin_only cache reload
(it could be even wrongly implemented in this case).
We can easily go with stardard tree load here.
When user runs command like 'lvconvert --splitcache' the operation
might be actually either slow or not making any progress in kernel,
so lets give user a chance to abort such operation.
When user press 'Ctrl+C' device table is restored to pre-flushing state.
Enhance reporting code, so it does not need to do 'extra' ioctl to
get 'status' of normal raid and provide percentage directly.
When we have 'merging' snapshot into raid origin, we still need to get
this secondary number with extra status call - however, since 'raid'
is always a single segment LV - we may skip 'copy_percent' call as
we directly know the percent and also with better precision.
NOTE: for mirror we still base reported number on the percetage of
transferred extents which might get quite imprecisse if big size
of extent is used while volume itself is smaller as reporting jump
steps are much bigger the actual reported number provides.
2nd.NOTE: raid lvs line report already requires quite a few extra status
calls for the same device - but fix will be need slight code improval.
Previously, we were treating non-RAID to RAID up-converts as a "resync"
operation. (The most common example being 'linear -> RAID1'.) RAID to
RAID up-converts or rebuilds of specific RAID images are properly treated
as a "recover" operation.
Since we were treating some up-convert operations as "resync", it was
possible to have scenarios where data corruption or data loss were
possibilities if the RAID hadn't been able to sync completely before a
loss of the primary source devices. In order to ensure that the user took
the proper precautions in such scenarios, we required a '--force' option
to be present. Unfortuneately, the force option was rendered useless
because there was no way to distiguish the failure state of a potentially
destructive repair from a nominal one - making the '--force' option a
requirement for any RAID1 repair!
We now treat non-RAID to RAID up-converts properly as "recover" operations.
This eliminates the scenarios that can potentially cause data loss or
data corruption; and this eliminates the need for the '--force' requirement.
This patch removes the requirement to specify '--force' for RAID repairs.
Two of the sync actions performed by the kernel (aka MD runtime) are
"resync" and "recover". The "resync" refers to when an entirely new array
is going through the process of initializing (or resynchronizing after an
unexpected shutdown). The "recover" is the process of initializing a new
member device to the array. So, a brand new array with all new devices
will undergo "resync". An array with replaced or added sub-LVs will undergo
"recover".
These two states are treated very differently when failures happen. If any
device is lost or replaced while "resync", there are no worries. This is
because any writes created from the inception of the array have occurred to
all the devices and can be safely recovered. Even though non-initialized
portions will still be resync'ed with uninitialized data, it is ok. However,
if a pre-existing device is lost (aka, the original linear device in a
linear -> raid1 convert) during a "recover", data loss can be the result.
Thus, writes are errored by the kernel and recovery is halted. The failed
device must be restored or removed. This is the correct behavior.
Unfortunately, we were treating an up-convert from linear as a "resync"
when we should have been treating it as a "recover". This patch
removes the special case for linear upconvert. It allows each new image
sub-LV to be marked with a rebuild flag and treats the array as 'in-sync'.
This has the correct effect of causing the upconvert to be treated as a
"recover" rather than a "resync". There is no need to flag these two states
differently in LVM metadata, because they are already considered differently
by the kernel RAID metadata. (Any activation/deactivation will properly
resume the "recover" process and not a "resync" process.)
We make this behavior change based on the presense of dm-raid target
version 1.9.0+.
