Add new profilable configation setting to let user select
which metadata format of a created cache pool he wish to use.
By default the 'best' available format is autodetected at runtime,
but user may enforce format 1 or 2 ATM.
Code also detects availability for metadata2 supporting cache target.
In case of troubles user may easily Disable usage of this feature
by placing 'metadata2' into global/cache_disabled_features list.
User can specify metadata profile which stores important cache
geometry data for easy configuration.
Fix missing support for getting chunk_size, cache_mode, cache_policy
for a cache/cache pools volumes from configuration or metadata profile.
Basically code moving operation to have a single place resolving
thin_pool_chunk_size_policy.
Supported are generic & performance profiles.
Function is now shared between thin manipulation code and configuration
_CFG logic to obtain defaults and handle correct reporting upward coding
stack.
Because of contraints in renaming shifted rimage/rmeta LV names
the current RaidLV limit is a maximum of 10 SubLV pairs.
With the previous introduction of reshaping infratructure that
constriant got removed.
Kernel supports 253 since dm-raid target 1.9.0, older kernels 64.
Raise the maximum number of RaidLV rimage/rmeta pairs to 64.
If we want to raise past 64, we have to introdce a check for
the kernel supporting it in lvcreate/lvconvert.

In order to support striped raid5/6/10 LV reshaping (change
of LV type, stripesize or number of legs), this patch
introduces the changes to call the reshaping infratructure
from lv_raid_convert().
Changes:
- add reshaping calls from lv_raid_convert()
- add command definitons for reshaping to tools/command-lines.in
- fix raid_rimage_extents()
- add 2 new test scripts lvconvert-raid-reshape-linear_to_striped.sh
and lvconvert-raid-reshape-striped_to_linear.sh to test
the linear <-> striped multi-step conversions
- add lvconvert-raid-reshape.sh reshaping tests
- enhance lvconvert-raid-takeover.sh with new raid10 tests

When showing sizes with 'H|human' units we do use standard rounding.
This however is confusing users from time to time,
when the printed number uses some biger units i.e. GiB and there is just
tiny fraction of space missing.
So here is some real-life example with new 'r' unit.
$lvs
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin
lvol0 vg -wi-a----- 1.99g
lvol1 vg -wi-a----- <2.00g
lvol2 vg -wi-a----- <2.01g
Meaning is - lvol1 has 'slightly' less then 2.00g - from sign '<' user
can be aware the LV doesn't have full 2.00GiB in size so he
will be less surpriced allocation of 2G volume will not succeed.
$ vgs
VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree
vg 2 2 0 wz--n- <6,00g <2,01g
For uses needing 'old' undecorated human unit simply will continue
to use 'H|h' units.
The new R|r may further change when we would recongnize some
other way how to improve readability.
Make it easier to replace missing segments with 'zero' returning
target - otherwise user would have to create some extra target
to provide zeros as /dev/zero can't be used (not a block device).
Also break code loop when segment is found and make it an INTERNAL_ERROR
where it's missing.
Introduce 'hard limit' for max number of cache chunks.
When cache target operates with too many chunks (>10e6).
When user is aware of related possible troubles he
may increase the limit in lvm.conf.
Also verbosely inform user about possible solution.
Code works for both lvcreate and lvconvert.
Lvconvert fully supports change of chunk_size when caching LV
(and validates for compatible settings).
Commit e947c362dd introduced
config_settings.h file for central place to store all definitions for
config options. By mistake, it used report/colums_as_rows instead
of report/columns_as_rows (missing "n" in "columns").
Enforce mirror/raid0/1/10/4/5/6 type specific maximum images when
creating LVs or converting them from mirror <-> raid1.
Document those maxima in the lvcreate/lvconvert man pages.

Some settings are not suitable for override in interactive/shell
mode because such settings may confuse the code and it may end
up with unexpected behaviour. This is because of the fact that
once we're in the interactive/shell mode, we have already applied
some settings for the shell itself and we can't override them
further because we're already using those settings to drive the
interactive/shell mode. Such settings would get ignored silently
or, in worse case, they would mess up the existing configuration.
Commit 3928c96a37 introduced
new defaults for raid number of stripes, which may cause
backwards compatibility issues with customer scripts.
Adding configurable option 'raid_stripe_all_devices' defaulting
to '0' (i.e. off = new behaviour) to select the old behaviour
of using all PVs in the VG or those provided on the command line.
In case any scripts rely on the old behaviour, just set
'raid_strip_all_devices = 1'.

lvm fullreport executes 5 subreports (vg, pv, lv, pvseg, seg) per each VG
(and so taking one VG lock each time) within one command which makes it
easier to produce full report about LVM entities.
Since all 5 subreports for a VG are done under a VG lock, the output is
more consistent mainly in cases where LVM entities may be changed in
parallel.
New report/output_format configuration sets the output format used
for all LVM commands globally. Currently, there are 2 formats
recognized:
- basic (the classical basic output with columns and rows, used by default)
- json (output is in json format)
This is a preparation for new CMDLOG report type which is going to be
used for reporting LVM command log.
The new report type introduces several new fields (log_seq_num, log_type,
log_context, log_object_type, log_object_group, log_object_id, object_name,
log_message, log_errno, log_ret_code) as well as new configuration settings
to set this report type (report/command_log_sort and report/command_log_cols
lvm.conf settings).
This patch also introduces internal report_cmdlog helper function
which is a wrapper over dm_report_object to report command log via
CMDLOG report type and which is going to be used throughout the code
to report the log items.
Wait to compare and choose alternate duplicate devices until
after all devices are scanned. During scanning, the first
duplicate dev is kept in lvmcache, and others are kept in a
new list (_found_duplicate_devs).
After all devices are scanned, compare all the duplicates
available for a given PVID and decide which is best.
If the dev used in lvmcache is changed, drop the old dev
from lvmcache entirely and rescan the replacement dev.
Previously the VG metadata from the old dev was kept in
lvmcache and only the dev was replaced.
A new config setting devices/allow_changes_with_duplicate_pvs
can be set to 0 which disallows modifying a VG or activating
LVs in it when the VG contains PVs with duplicate devices.
Set to 1 is the old behavior which allowed the VG to be
changed.
The logic for which of two devs is preferred has changed.
The primary goal is to choose a device that is currently
in use if the other isn't, e.g. by an active LV.
. prefer dev with fs mounted if the other doesn't, else
. prefer dev that is dm if the other isn't, else
. prefer dev in subsystem if the other isn't
If neither device is preferred by these rules, then don't
change devices in lvmcache, leaving the one that was found
first.
The previous logic for preferring a device was:
. prefer dev in subsystem if the other isn't, else
. prefer dev without holders if the other has holders, else
. prefer dev that is dm if the other isn't
Move checking the lvmetad state, and the possible rescan,
out of lvmetad_send() to the start of the command.
Previously, the token mismatch and rescan would occur
within lvmetad_send() for some other request. Now,
the token mismatch is detected earlier, so the
rescan can be done before the main command is in
progress. Rescanning deep within the processing of
another command will disturb the lvmcache state of
that other command.
A rescan already exists at the start of the command
for the case where foreign VGs are going to be read.
This same rescan is now also performed when there is
an lvmetad token mismatch (from a changed global_filter).
The commands pvscan/vgscan/lvscan/vgimport are excluded
from this preemptive checking/rescanning for lvmetad
because they want to do rescanning themselves explicitly.
If rescanning devices fails, then lvmetad has not been
correctly repopulated and should not be used, so make
the command revert to not using lvmetad.
When a command modifies a PV or VG, or changes the
activation state of an LV, it will send a dbus
notification when the command is finished. This
can be enabled/disabled with a config setting.
The metadata/record_lvs_history is global switch which enables or
disables recording historical LVs in metadata.
If both metadata/record_lvs_history=1 lvm.conf option and
--nohistory command switch is used at the same time, the
--nohistory prevails.
'verbose' was marked as a boolean option while it
takes integer args - so it has limited usage to 0 or 1,
but we supported 0-4 at least.
Fix it by switching to corrent int type.
(Hopefully noone was trying to use this variable as true/yes/false/no
way - as the would be unsupported/undocumented).
Normally, we generate and provide lvm.conf file where use_blkid_wiping
is set based on whether support for this is compiled in or not. This was
generated properly based on configure.
However, if lvm.conf is not used at all (someone deletes it) or the value
in lvm.conf is commented out (user edited it), we still need to use
proper default value that is based on DEFAULT_USE_BLKID_WIPING taken
from configure script - we used hardcoded value of "1" in this case
by mistake.
Just for convenience to display all new configuration settings
introduced since given version (before, there was only --atversion
to display settings introduced in concrete version).
For example:
$ lvmconfig --type new --sinceversion 2.2.120
allocation {
# cache_mode="writethrough"
# cache_settings {
# }
}
global {
use_lvmlockd=0
# lvmlockd_lock_retries=3
# sanlock_lv_extend=256
use_lvmpolld=1
}
activation {
}
# report {
# compact_output_cols=""
# time_format="%Y-%m-%d %T %z"
# }
local {
# host_id=0
}
