When initializing an LV to hold the writecache, use wipe_lv()
which looks for specific signatures on the LV.
Wiping signatures is not necessary, but printing a warning
that names a specific signature (in addition to the existing
generic warning/confirmation) may help if a user accidentally
specifies the wrong LV which contains something important.
Detach function return 0 for error and 1 for success.
Add missing log errors from failing deactivation.
Add missing log error from failing synchronization.
Since configure.h is a generated header and it's missing traditional
ifdefs preambule - it can be included & parsed multiple times.
Normally compiler is fine when defines have same value and there is
no warning - yet we don't need to parse this several times
and by adding -include directive we can ensure every file
in the package is rightly compile with configure.h as the
first header file.
With older gcc - we need to resolve symbols linked with devmapper-event
that is now using -ldevmapper.
Also add forgotten systemd library needed for dbus notification.
Ensure configure.h is always 1st. included header.
Maybe we could eventually introduce gcc -include option, but for now
this better uses dependency tracking.
Also move _REENTRANT and _GNU_SOURCE into configure.h so it
doesn't need to be present in various source files.
This ensures consistent compilation of headers like stdio.h since
it may produce different declaration.
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.

In RHEL7 we marked mirrored mirror logs as deprecated and
added a related message. This patch prohibits creating new
'mirror' LVs with that log type or converting existing LVs
to have one.
Existing LVs with mirrored mirror log can be activated
and converted to disk/core logs.
Avoid double deprecation message when running lvconvert.

. When using default settings, this commit should change
nothing. The first PE continues to be placed at 1 MiB
resulting in a metadata area size of 1020 KiB (for
4K page sizes; slightly smaller for larger page sizes.)
. When default_data_alignment is disabled in lvm.conf,
align pe_start at 1 MiB, based on a default metadata area
size that adapts to the page size. Previously, disabling
this option would result in mda_size that was too small
for common use, and produced a 64 KiB aligned pe_start.
. Customized pe_start and mda_size values continue to be
set as before in lvm.conf and command line.
. Remove the configure option for setting default_data_alignment
at build time.
. Improve alignment related option descriptions.
. Add section about alignment to pvcreate man page.
Previously, DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE was 255 sectors.
However, the fact that the config setting named
"default_data_alignment" has a default value of 1 (MiB)
meant that DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE was having no effect.
The metadata area size is the space between the start of
the metadata area (page size offset from the start of the
device) and the first PE (1 MiB by default due to
default_data_alignment 1.) The result is a 1020 KiB metadata
area on machines with 4KiB page size (1024 KiB - 4 KiB),
and smaller on machines with larger page size.
If default_data_alignment was set to 0 (disabled), then
DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE 255 would take effect, and produce a
metadata area that was 188 KiB and pe_start of 192 KiB.
This was too small for common use.
This is fixed by making the default metadata area size a
computed value that matches the value produced by
default_data_alignment.
instead of a separate --writecacheblocksize option.
writecache block_size is not technically a setting,
but it can borrow the option as a special case.
If a single, standard LV is specified as the cache, use
it directly instead of converting it into a cache-pool
object with two separate LVs (for data and metadata).
With a single LV as the cache, lvm will use blocks at the
beginning for metadata, and the rest for data. Separate
dm linear devices are set up to point at the metadata and
data areas of the LV. These dm devs are given to the
dm-cache target to use.
The single LV cache cannot be resized without recreating it.
If the --poolmetadata option is used to specify an LV for
metadata, then a cache pool will be created (with separate
LVs for data and metadata.)

This fixes a problem in commit e6bb780d24, in which the
back compat handling for the old locking_type=4 was
incorrectly translated to mean the same thing as --readonly,
which prevented activation because activation uses an
exclusive vg lock. Previously, locking_type=4 allowed
activation.
If we see locking_type 4 in an old config, translate it to
the new combination of --readonly and --sysinit, which we
now define to mean the --readonly behavior with an exception
to allow activation.
When vgcreate does an automatic pvcreate, it opens the
dev with O_EXCL to ensure no other subsystem is using
the device. This exclusive fd remained in bcache and
prevented activation parts of lvm from using the dev.
This appeared with vgcreate of a sanlock VG because of
the unique combination where the dev is not yet a PV,
so pvcreate is needed, and the vgcreate also creates
and activates an internal LV for sanlock.
Fix this by closing the exclusive fd after it's used
by pvcreate so that it won't interfere with other
bits of lvm that may try to use the device.
Conversions of LVs under snapshot to thinpool or cachepool
correctly fail but leave them inactive and provide cryptic
error messages like 'Internal error: #LVs (10) != #visible
LVs (2) + #snapshots (1) + #internal LVs (5) in VG VG'.
Reject and provide better error message.
