We can use it even in read-only environment where a try to initialise
file-based locking fails (not to mention other processing related with
lvm2 init). Simply, we want to output the version only, nothing else.
And this should always work.
This rule appeared in udev v152 and it helps us to support spurious events
where we didn't have any flags set (events originated in udevadm trigger
or the watch rule). These flags are important to direct the rule application.
Now, with the help of this rule, we can regenerate old udev db content.
To implement this correctly, we need to flag all proper DM udev events with
DM_UDEV_PRIMARY_SOURCE_FLAG. That happens automatically for all ioctls
generating events originated in libdevmapper.
Allow lv_remove_with_dependencies() to know the top-level LV that was
requested to be removed (otherwise it recurses and we lose context).
A merging snapshot cannot be removed directly but the associated origin
can be. Disallow removal of a merging snapshot unless the associated
origin is also being removed.
(process_each_lv_in_vg) provides it.
Also, removing this check from _lvs_single now allows displaying hidden
LVs that are specifically named on the command line.
There's no need for foreign udev rules to touch LVM reserved devices
(snapshot, pvmove, _mlog, _mimage, _vorigin) even if they happen to
be visible. The same applies for /dev/disk content - no need to create
any content for these devices (and so no need to run any "blkid" etc.).
This also prevents setting any inotify "watch" from udev rules on such
devices that is a source of race conditions (the rules need to honor
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG for this to work though).
Now that we have library functions to add/delete a pv from the vg->pvs
list, call them from everywhere.

Usage of VPATH makes troubles when used within $(builddir).
Not only source files are being found through VPATH,
but targets as well. (make --debug=v)
Thus if user builds the code in $(srcdir) and also in some $(builddir)
he gets mangled results as some generated files (i.e. .export.sym)
are 'reused' from $(srcdir) instead of $(builddir).
This patch switches to use vpath were we could explicitly name

This prevents some confusion when libudev was not found so udev_sync was disabled
automatically. Configure was successful though giving only a tiny warning.
Also, if "dmsetup udevcreatecookie" is used, never return 0x000000 as a result if
udev is not running and keep the output blank.
Prevent lvresize from being able to resize internal LVs: mirror legs

sometimes crashes (in case of growing snapshot*).
When we pv_read() a device that has an orphan vgname, we might need to scan
the system to be sure this is true. However, if the PV has mdas, there's
no way possible for it to have an orphan vgname unless it is a true orphan.
Some areas of the code were optimized to take advantage of this fact, while
others were not (we would still do the expensive scan if a device had mdas
but had an orphan VG).
This patch unifies the code so that every place we are operating on such
a PV, we skip the expensive scan if there are mdas.

This patch adds a new implementation of locking function instead
of mlockall() that may lock way too much memory (>100MB).
New function instead uses mlock() system call and selectively locks
memory areas from /proc/self/maps trying to avoid locking areas
unused during lock-ed state.
Patch also adds struct cmd_context to all memlock() calls to have
access to configuration.
For backward compatibility functionality of mlockall()
is preserved with "activation/use_mlockall" flag.
As a simple check, locking and unlocking counts the amount of memory
and compares whether values are matching.
For static builds dependency for SELinux libs is not handled by 'ar'.
Till better solution is found, for static builds STATIC_LIBS is used.
Patch updates SELinux detection to use 3rd & 4th parameter for Success/Fail.
Also removes detection of pthread from this check as we know which
version of libdevmapper we are going to link with lvm after merge.
SELinux header check moved to the SELinux test code.
Create new substituted variable PTHREAD_LIBS and link this library
only with tools/libs which really needs it - i.e. dmeventd.
Check for libpthread only for builds with clvmd or dmeventd.
Remove variable LIB_PTHREAD
Modify linking of readline library. Create new substituted varible
READLINE_LIBS - readline library is linked ONLY with tools that really use
it - i.e. lvm. (Static lvm does not use readlin).
Previous behaviour put this library into the variable LIBS and thus
linked it with all created object files of lvm project (i.e. plugins...).
READLINE detection is simplified.
Termcap library is linked in only if readline library doesn't have its own
dependency (i.e. old distributions).

Add a merging snapshot to the deptree, using the "error" target, rather
than avoid adding it entirely. This allows proper cleanup of the -cow
device without having to rename the -cow to use the origin's name as a
prefix.
Move the preloading of the origin LV, after a merge, from
lv_remove_single() to vg_remove_snapshot(). Having vg_remove_snapshot()
preload the origin allows the -cow device to be released so that it can
be removed via deactivate_lv(). lv_remove_single()'s deactivate_lv()
reliably removes the -cow device because the associated snapshot LV,
that is to be removed when a snapshot-merge completes, is always added
to the deptree (and kernel -- via "error" target).
Now when the snapshot LV is removed both the -cow and -real devices
get removed using uuid rather than device name. This paves the way
for us to switch over to info-by-uuid queries.

Switch lvconvert's --merge code over to using process_each_lv(). Doing
so adds support for a single 'lvconvert --merge' to start merging
multiple LVs (which includes @tag expansion).
Add 'lvconvert --merge @tag' testing to test/t-snapshot-merge.sh
Adjust man/lvconvert.8.in to reflect these expanded capabilities.
The lvconvert.c implementation requires rereading the VG each iteration
of process_each_lv(). Otherwise a stale VG instance associated with
the LV passed to lvconvert_single_merge() would result in stale VG
metadata being written back out to disk. This overwrote new metadata
that was written when a previous snapshot LV finished merging (via
lvconvert_poll). This is only an issue when merging multiple LVs that
share the same VG (a single VG is typical for most LVM configurations on
system disks).
In the end this new support is very useful for performing a "system
rollback" that requires multiple snapshot LVs be merged to their
respective origin LV.
The yum-utils 'fs-snapshot' plugin tags all snapshot LVs that it creates
with a common 'snapshot_tag' that is unique to the yum transaction.
Rolling back a yum transaction, that created LVM snapshots with the tag
'yum_20100129133223', is as simple as:

depending on if the mirror has a 'core' or 'disk' log. When there
is a disk log, the new leg is added by stacking a new mirror on
top of the old (one leg is the old mirror and the other leg is the newly
added device). When the log is a 'core' log, the new leg is simply added
to the existing mirror and all the devices are re-synced.
The logic that handles collapsing the stacked 'disk' log mirror was
having the effect of causing 'core' logged mirrors to begin resync'ing
for a second time. I have used the 'CONVERTING' flag to indicate that
a mirror is converting by way of stacking. This is no longer set for
up-converting core logs. The final 'collapse' logic can safely be skipped
for 'core' log mirrors - getting rid of the second resync.

where we should not expose internal VG names/uuids (the ones with "#" prefix )through the
interface. Otherwise, we could end up with library users opening internal VGs which will
initiate locking mechanism that won't be cleaned up properly.
"#orphans_{lvm1, lvm2, pool}" names are treated in a special way, they are truncated first
to "orphans" and this is used as a part of the lock name then (e.g. while calling lvm_vg_open()).
When library user calls lvm_vg_close(), the original name "orphans_{lvm1, lvm2, pool}"
is used directly and therefore no unlock occurs.
We should exclude internal VG names and uuids in the lists provided by lvmcache:
lvmcache_get_vgids() and lvmcache_get_vgnames().

When activation of pvmove mirror fails on cluster, some nodes
still possibly succeeded in activation.
- Explicitly deactivate that mirror to be sure
- properly pair suspend/resume calls to not cause memory lock problems in clvmd
Code cannot simply call _finish_pvmove on cluster in this situation, because
changed LVs are suspended twice (causing memory inbalance) and also temporary
mirror is activated when it is not expected (and we know that it failed already).
Patch prepares special function which remove temporary mirror references from
metadata and then resumes changed LVs.
Support "wait before testing" using '+' in pvmove and lvconvert
interval. Doing so overrides the new default of sleeping after checking
the LV's progress.
Sleeping before checking progress can lead to extraneous polldaemons
being left running. These polldaemons would have otherwise exited had
they checked before sleeping. Checking progress before sleeping helps
workaround the subtly unreliable nature of "finished" state checking
in _percent_run.
Update test/t-mirror-names.sh to use '+' when providing its lvconvert

'const'. Be consistent with its use (and dev_manager_snapshot_percent()).
Pass 'lv' from dev_manager_snapshot_percent() to _percent() to
_percent_run(). _percent_run() always dereferenced 'lv' (when
initializing segh) even though it may have been NULL (as was the case
until now for dev_manager_snapshot_percent()).
If a "snapshot-origin" LV (snapshot-merge whose merge was deferred
becuase it was open) was passed to _percent_run() it would always return
100%.
Update _percent_run() to NOT return PERCENT_100 et. al. if
->target_percent() wasn't ever called and supplied 'lv' is a merging
origin. A default return of 100% does not work for snapshot-merge.
Also tweak a related lvconvert log_error() to include "Aborting merge."
Eliminate 'merging_snapshot' from 'struct logical_volume' and just use
'snapshot' for origin lv's reference to the merging snapshot; also set
MERGING in the origin lv's status.
If either the origin or snapshot that is to be merged is open the merge
will not start; only the merge metadata will be written. The merge will
start on the next activation of the origin (or via lvchange --refresh)
IFF both the origin and snapshot are closed.
Merge on activate is particularly important if we want to merge over a
mounted filesystem that cannot be unmounted (until next boot) --- for
example root.

Sometimes it is really needed to switch off udev checking and the warnings we show when
we detect that udev has not done its job right - the messages like "Udev should have done
this and that. Falling back to direct node creation/removal. " etc.
This would be especially handy while setting DM_DEV_DIR env var that could be set to a
different location than standard /dev (udev can't create nodes/symlinks out of that one
directory that is configured into udevd). The exact same situation happens while we're
running our tests.
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.

The default log option for a mirror is 'disk'. If the log
type is not explicitly stated on the command line when
converting from an X-way mirror to a Y-way mirror, 'disk'
is chosen. So, if you have a 'core' log mirror and you
convert, your result will contain a 'disk' log.
This patch remembers what the old log type was. If the
user is merely trying to switch the number of mirror
images, the log type is now kept the same.
There is one historical behaviour I left in place...
If you have a 2-way, core-log mirror and you use lvconvert to
specify you want a 2-way mirror - without specifying the
log type - you will get a 2-way, disk-log mirror.

The logic was that lvconvert repair volumes, marking
PV as MISSING and following vgreduce --removemissing
removes these missing devices.
Previously dmeventd mirror DSO removed all LV and PV
from VG by simply relying on
vgreduce --removemissing --force.
Now, there are two subsequent calls:
lvconvert --repair --use-policies
vgreduce --removemissing
So the VG is locked twice, opening space for all races
between other running lvm processes. If the PV reappears
with old metadata on it (so the winner performs autorepair,
if locking VG for update) the situation is even worse.
Patch simply adds removemissing PV functionality into
lvconcert BUT ONLY if running with --repair and --use-policies
and removing only these empty missing PVs which are
involved in repair.
(This combination is expected to run only from dmeventd.)
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'

If the vg_read() returned error, no lock was taken,
so always call vg_release().
Otherwise this can happen because of missing FAILED_*:
# vgchange -a y x --ignorelockingfailure
Volume group "x" not found
Internal error: Attempt to unlock unlocked VG x
(on one node a storage connection failed):
# vgchange -a y vg_bar ; echo $?
Error locking on node bar-02: Refusing activation of partial LV lv1. Use --partial to override.
1 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg_bar" now active
0
So activation fails on one node, error is correctly printed but
status code is wrong.
This patch fixes the top level (vgchange) to return proper code
(and print # of activated LVs).
(lvchange returns error properly here.)
All hidden (not visible) volumes should be activated through
other visible volumes.
(There are already exceptions like snapshot, mirror log and image,
which should be cleaned one day...)
This solves problems for future types of hidden volumes,
which can have special meaning and must not be activated implicitly
(e.g. key store volume).
This provides better support for environments where udev rules are installed
but udev_sync is not compiled in (however, using udev_sync is highly
recommended). It also provides consistent and expected functionality even
when '--noudevsync' option is used.
There is still requirement for kernel >= 2.6.31 for the flags to work though
(it uses DM cookies to pass the flags into the kernel and set them in udev
event environment that we can read in udev rules).
- fix missing unlocking of VG

Rename fill_default_pvcreate_params to pvcreate_params_set_defaults.
Rename pvcreate_validate_restore_params to pvcreate_restore_params_validate.
Rename pvcreate_validate_params to pvcreate_params_validate.
Similar to other vg_set_* functions, we create a vg_set_clustered() function
which does a few checks and sets a flag. This is where we check for
any limitations of clusters.
Option --all is only partially documented currently, so document in all
commands. Also make {pv|vg|lv}{display|s} man pages consistent with help
output. Remove ununsed 'disk_ARG' parameter. Leave --trustcache out of
the man page output. Update --units argument to show all possible units.
- we have these levels when the udev rules are processed:
10-dm.rules --> [11-dm-<subsystem>.rules] --> [12-dm-permissions.rules] -->
13-dm-disk.rules --> [...all the other foreign rules...] --> 95-dm-notify.rules
- each level can be disabled now by
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_{DM, SUBSYSTEM, DISK, OTHER}_RULES_FLAG
- add DM_UDEV_DISABLE_DM_RULES_FLAG to disable 10-dm.rules
- add DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG to disable all the other (non-dm) rules.
We cutoff these rules by using the 'last_rule', so this one should really be
used with great care and in well-founded situations. We use this for lvm's
hidden and layer devices now.
- add a parameter for add_dev_node, rm_dev_node and rename_dev_node so it's
possible to switch on/off udev checks
- use DM_UDEV_DISABLE_DM_RULES_FLAG and DM_UDEV_DISABLE_SUBSYSTEM_RULES_FLAG
if there's no cookie set and we have resume, remove and rename ioctl.
This could happen when someone uses the libdevmapper that is compiled with
udev_sync but the software does not make use of it. This way we can switch
off the rules and fallback to libdevmapper node creation so there's no
udev/libdevmapper race.
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.
Adds implicit pvcreate support when calling vgcreate or vgextend with
device paths that are not yet PVs. This changes the behavior of vgcreate
and vgextend from failing with an error message to implicitly pvcreating.
Split pvcreate_validate_params into recovery and non-recovery parameters.
This is necessary so we can call the non-recovery validate function from
vgextend / vgcreate. Note in the pvcreate tool case, we must call the
recovery validation function first (see treatment of pe_start and --zero),
and that we add a call to fill_default_pvcreate_params before the validation
functions.
Another refactoring for implicit pvcreate support. We need to get
the pvcreate parameters somehow to the vg_extend routine. Options
seemed to be:
1. Attach the parameters to struct volume_group. I personally
did not like this idea in most cases, though one could make an
agrument why it might be ok at least for some of the parameters
(e.g. metadatacopies).
2. Pass them in to the extend routine. This second route seemed
to be the best approach given the constraints.
Future patches will parse the command line and fill in the actual
values for the pvcreate_single call.
Should be no functional change.

Remove the checks for vg_read_error() in most of the tools callback

In all but vgcfgbackup, we do not want to proceed if we get any error
from vg_read(). In vgcfgbackup's case, we may proceed if the backup
is to proceed with inconsistent VGs. This is a special case though,
and we mark it with the READ_ALLOW_INCONSISTENT flag passed to
process_each_vg (and subsequently to _process_one_vg).
NOTE: More cleanup is needed in the vg_read_error() path cases.
This patch is a start.
This patch is all just cleanup and no other patch depends on it.
Replace explicit dereference and check with vg_is_exported().
Update a few copyrights and remove unnecessary whitespace.
Should be no functional change.
Split vg_remove_single into vg_remove_check (mandatory checks before
vgremove) and vg_remove (do actual remove by committing to disk).
In liblvm, we'd like to provide an consistent API that allows multiple
changes in memory, then let lvm_vg_write() control the commit to disk. In
some cases (for example, lvresize calls fsadm) this may not be possible.
However, since we are using an object model and dividing things into small
operations, the most logical model seems to be the lvm_vg_write model, and
handling the special cases as they arrive. So as best as possible
we move towards this end.
A possible optimization would be to consolidate vg_remove (committing)
code with vgreduce code. A second possible optimization is making vgreduce
of the last device equivalent to vgremove. Today, lvm_vg_reduce fails if
vgreduce is called with the last device, but from an object model perspective
we could view this as equivalent to vgremove and allow it. My gut feel is
we do not want to do this though.

Later patches should consolidate the vgremove / vgreduce functions but for
now let's clarify what vg_remove actually does by changing the name.

If the destination vgname comes before the source vgname, we must open the
destination first because of the locking rules. Thus, do a strcmp and set
the flag based on the comparison.
Author: Dave Wysochanski <dwysocha@redhat.com>
Slight functional change. If we open the destination first, we cannot
know the 'fmt'. In this case we use the default metadata type unless
the user has specified -M on the cmdline. If not, in most cases this
is fine since we use the LVM2 default metadata type. However, if the
user is specifying a non-default metadata type (e.g. lvm1) and the order
of the names is such that we have to open the destination (vg_to) first,
we have a problem. So in this case, we require the use of -M and vgsplit
will fail with an error if not. I've updated the man page to recommend
the usage of -M in this case.

After some refactorings, we can now move the bulk of _lvcreate into the
internal library, and we can call from liblvm. In the future, we should
refactor lv_create_single further, probably by segtype, to reduce the
size of struct lvcreate_params. For now this is a reasonable refactor
and allows us to re-use the function from liblvm.

Move extents calculation adjustments into their own local functions

Move orphan lock obtain/release inside vg_extend().
With this change we now have vgcreate/vgextend liblvm functions.
Note that this changes the lock order of the following functions as the
orphan lock is now obtained first. With our policy of non-blocking
second locks, this should not be a problem.
Signed-off-by: Dave Wysochanski <dwysocha@redhat.com>
We provide a lock type that behaves like no_locking, but is not
clustered. Moreover, it also forbids any write locks. This magically (and
consistently) prevents use of clustered VGs, or changing local VGs with
--ignorelockingfailure. As a bonus, we can remove the special hacks in a few
places. Of course, people looking for trouble can always set their locking_type
to 0 to override.
In _process_one_vg, we should never proceed if the VG read fails with certain
conditions. If we cannot allocate or construct the volume_group structure,
we should not proceed - this is true regardless of the tool calling the
iterator. In other cases, when the volume group structure is constructed but
there is some error (PVs missing, metadata corrupted, etc), some tools may
want to process the VG while others may not.

In vg_backup_single, we should error out if we vg_read_error(vg) and the

Move the check for the RESIZEABLE flag inside the vg_extend function.
When we consolidated the vg locking, reading, and status flag checking,
we tied the check for the RESIZEABLE flag to the vg_read() call. The problem
with this is you cannot know what other APIs the application my or may not
call after a vg_read() call. Thus the READ_REQUIRE_RESIZEABLE flag is not
really ideal - ideally we should be checking for this flag on a specific
operation, not inside the vg_read() call. This patch moves one check inside
the library.

Move the vg orphan lock inside vg_remove_single, now a complete liblvm
function. Note that this changes the order of the locks - originally
VG_ORPHAN was obtained first, then the vgname lock. With the current
policy of non-blocking second locks, this could mean we get a failure
obtaining the orphan lock. In the case of a vg with lvs being removed,
this could result in the lvs being removed but not the vg. Such a
scenario could have happened prior though with a different failure.
Other tools were examined for side-effects, and no major problems
were noted.

Move check for active LVs outside of library function. The vgremove
liblvm function function will fail if there are active LVs. It will
be the application's responsibility to check this condition and remove
the LVs individually before calling vgremove. Note also that we've
duplicated the EXPORTED_VG check in vgremove_single (tools) and
vg_remove_single (library). Duplication seemed the only option here
since we don't want to do the automatic removal of LVs (in the tools)
if the vg is exported, and we still need to protect the library call
from removal if the vg is exported.
We still need to deal with the ORPHAN lock but vg_remove_single is now
very close to our liblvm function.

vg_t *vg_create(struct cmd_context *cmd, const char *vg_name);
This is the first step towards the API called to create a VG.
Call vg_lock_newname() inside this function. Use _vg_make_handle()
where possible.
Now we have 2 ways to construct a volume group:
1) vg_read: Used when constructing an existing VG from disks
2) vg_create: Used when constructing a new VG
Both of these interfaces obtain a lock, and return a vg_t *.
The usage of _vg_make_handle() inside vg_create() doesn't fit
perfectly but it's ok for now. Needs some cleanup though and I've
noted "FIXME" in the code.
Add the new vg_create() plus vg 'set' functions for non-default
VG parameters in the following tools:
- vgcreate: Fairly straightforward refactoring. We just moved
vg_lock_newname inside vg_create so we check the return via
vg_read_error.
- vgsplit: The refactoring here is a bit more tricky. Originally
we called vg_lock_newname and depending on the error code, we either
read the existing vg or created the new one. Now vg_create()
calls vg_lock_newname, so we first try to create the VG. If this
fails with FAILED_EXIST, we can then do the vg_read. If the
create succeeds, we check the input parameters and set any new
values on the VG.
TODO in future patches:
1. The VG_ORPHAN lock needs some thought. We may want to treat
this as any other VG, and require the application to obtain a handle
and pass it to other API calls (for example, vg_extend). Or,
we may find that hiding the VG_ORPHAN lock inside other APIs is
the way to go. I thought of placing the VG_ORPHAN lock inside
vg_create() and tying it to the vg handle, but was not certain
this was the right approach.
2. Cleanup error paths. Integrate vg_read_error() with vg_create and
vg_read* error codes and/or the new error APIs.

In liblvm, we will reserve the word 'change' to mean an API that
both sets one or more values, and commits to disk. This will be
consistent with the LVM commandline. The existing vg_change_pesize()
function does not commit to disk, but just changes the extent_size
and ensures all internal structures are updated. This logic should
be contained in a function that sets the value.

It would be nice to have one function that does all the validation
and setting of the VG's pesize. However, currently some checks
are in the higher-level function _vgchange_pesize(), and some
checks are in the lower function vg_change_pesize().
This patch moves most of the higher-level checks inside
vg_change_pesize. In one case a failure return code is
changed from ECMD_FAILED to EINVALID_CMD_LINE.

Remove NON_BLOCKING lock flag from tools and set a policy to auto-set.
As a simplification to the tools and further liblvm, this patch pushes
the setting of NON_BLOCKING lock flag inside the lock_vol() call.
The policy we set is if any existing VGs are currently locked, we
set the NON_BLOCKING flag.
At some point it may make sense to add this flag back if we get an
RFE from a liblvm user, but for now let's keep it as simple as
possible.

Fix vg_read() error paths to properly release upon vg_read_error().
Note that in the iterator paths (process_each_*()), we release
inside the iterator so no individual cleanup is needed. However there
are a number of other places we missed the cleanup. Proper cleanup
when vg_read_error() is true should be calling vg_release(vg), since
there should be no locks held if we get an error (except in certain
special cases, which IMO we should work to remove from the code).
Unfortunately the testsuite is unable to detect these types of memory
leaks. Most of them can be easily seen if you try an operation
(e.g. lvcreate) with a volume group that does not exist. Error
message looks like this:
Volume group "vg2" not found
