a341cab721 Implement automatic snapshot extension with dmeventd, and add two new options
to lvm.conf in the activation section: 'snapshot_autoextend_threshold' and
'snapshot_autoextend_percent', that define how to handle automatic snapshot
extension. The former defines when the snapshot should be extended: when its
space usage exceeds this many percent. The latter defines how much extra space
should be allocated for the snapshot, in percent of its current size.

Introduce --norestorefile to allow user to override the new requirement.

This can also be overridden with "devices/require_restorefile_with_uuid"

a5bf70018b Add --metadataignore to pvcreate.
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.

This check-in enables the 'mirrored' log type.  It can be specified
by using the '--mirrorlog' option as follows:
#> lvcreate -m1 --mirrorlog mirrored -L 5G -n lv vg

I've also included a couple updates to the testsuite.  These updates
include tests for the new log type, and some fixes to some of the
*lvconvert* tests.

72e0743621 This patch adds the capability to split off a mirror legs.
It is pretty much the same as reducing the number of
mirror legs, but we just don't delete them afterwards.

The following command line interface is enforced:
  prompt> lvconvert --splitmirror <n> -n <name> <VG>/<LV>
where 'n' is the number of images to split off, and
where 'name' is the name of the newly split off logical volume.

If more than one leg is split off, a new mirror will be the
result.  The newly split off mirror will have a 'core' log.
Example:
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# !lvs
lvs -a -o name,copy_percent,devices
  LV            Copy%  Devices
  lv            100.00 lv_mimage_0(0),lv_mimage_1(0),lv_mimage_2(0),lv_mimage_3(0)
  [lv_mimage_0]        /dev/sdb1(0)
  [lv_mimage_1]        /dev/sdc1(0)
  [lv_mimage_2]        /dev/sdd1(0)
  [lv_mimage_3]        /dev/sde1(0)
  [lv_mlog]            /dev/sdi1(0)
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# lvconvert --splitmirrors 2 --name split vg/lv /dev/sd[ce]1
  Logical volume lv converted.
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# !lvs
lvs -a -o name,copy_percent,devices
  LV               Copy%  Devices
  lv               100.00 lv_mimage_0(0),lv_mimage_2(0)
  [lv_mimage_0]           /dev/sdb1(0)
  [lv_mimage_2]           /dev/sdd1(0)
  [lv_mlog]               /dev/sdi1(0)
  split            100.00 split_mimage_0(0),split_mimage_1(0)
  [split_mimage_0]        /dev/sde1(0)
  [split_mimage_1]        /dev/sdc1(0)

It can be seen that '--splitmirror <n>' is exactly the same
as '--mirrors -<n>' (note the minus sign), except there is the
additional notion to keep the image being detached from the
mirror instead of just throwing it away.

7a8fa6aaab Add a [--poll {y|n}] flag to vgchange and lvchange to control whether
the background polldaemon is allowed to start.  It can be used
standalone or in conjunction with --refresh or --available y.

Control over when the background polldaemon starts will be particularly
important for snapshot-merge of a root filesystem.

Dracut will be updated to activate all LVs with: --poll n

The lvm2-monitor initscript will start polling with: --poll y

NOTE: Because we currently have no way of knowing if a background
polldaemon is active for a given LV the following limitations exist and
have been deemed acceptable:
1) it is not possible to stop an active polldaemon; so the lvm2-monitor
   initscript doesn't stop running polldaemon(s)
2) redundant polldaemon instances will be started for all specified LVs
   if vgchange or lvchange are repeatedly used with '--poll y'

0ddb66efba Add --pvmetadatacopies as a synonym for --metadatacopies in various commands.
Going forward, we would like to allow users to specify the total
number of metadatacopies in a VG rather than on a per-PV basis.  In
order to facilitate that, introduce --pvmetadatacopes to replace
--metadatacopies everywhere.  We still allow --metadatacopies for
pv commands, but require --pvmetadatacopies for vg commands.
Eventually we will introduce --vgmetadatacopies.  Once we do that,
we should either deprecate --metadatacopies or make it a synonym based
on the command (pvmetadatacopies for pv commands, and vgmetadatacopies
for vg commands).  The latter option would likely just require a simple
'strncpy' check against cmd->command->name to qualify the merge_synonym
call.

Update nightly tests to cover the pvmetadatacopies synonym.

Note that this patch is the result of an eariler review comment for
the implicit pvcreate patches.  Should apply cleanly on top of the
implicit pvcreate patches (I applied after patch 10/10 in that series).

NOTE: This patch will require --pvmetadatacopies for vgconvert as
--metadatacopies is no longer accepted.

772cac09e3 Enable use of cached metadata for pvs & pvdisplay.
Currently PV commands, which performs full device scan, repeatly
re-reads PVs and scans for all devices.

This behaviour can lead to OOM for large VG.

This patch allows using internal metadata cache for pvs & pvdisplay,
so the commands scan the PVs only once.
(We have to use VG_GLOBAL otherwise cache is invalidated on every
VG unlock in process_single PV call.)

8929ce6651 Add --dataalignment to pvcreate to specify alignment of data area. (mbroz)
This patch is not fully tested and leaves some related bugs unfixed.

Intended behaviour of the code now:

  pe_start in the lvm2 format PV label header is set only by pvcreate (or
vgconvert -M2) and then preserved in *all* operations thereafter.

  In some specialist cases, after the PV is added to a VG, the pe_start
field in the VG metadata may hold a different value and if so, it
overrides the other one for as long as the PV is in such a VG.

  Currently, the field storing the size of the data area in the PV label
header always holds 0.  As it only has meaning in the context of a
volume group, it is calculated whenever the PV is added to a VG (and can
be derived from extent_size and pe_count in the VG metadata).
