The problem that that commit was fixing (pytest failure)
no longer appears with the current code, so the commit is
not needed.
That commit is a problem for pvchange, because it prevents
lvmcache from retaining VG metadata even while the global
lock is held. pvchange holds the global lock to ensure
that VG metadata is kept in lvmcache throughout processing.
If the cache is not kept, a PV with zero MDAs will appear
first in its actual VG and then appear again in the orphan VG.
It wrongly appears a second time in the orphan VG only if
the actual VG is dropped from lvmcache.
Use process_each_vg() to lock and read the old VG,
and then call the main vgrename code.
When real VG names are used (not a UUID in place of the
old name), the command still pre-locks the new name
(when strcmp wants it locked first), before calling
process_each_vg on the old name.
In the case where the old name is replaced with a UUID,
process_each_vg now translates that UUID into the real
VG name, which it locks and reads. In this case, we
cannot do pre-locking to maintain lock ordering because
the old name is unknown. So, in this case the strcmp
based lock ordering is suppressed and the old name is
always locked first. This opens a remote chance for
lock ordering conflict between racing vgrenames between
two names where one or both commands use the UUID.
Before commit c1f246fedf,
_get_all_devices() did a full device scan before
get_vgnameids() was called. The full scan in
_get_all_devices() is from calling dev_iter_create(f, 1).
The '1' arg forces a full scan.
By doing a full scan in _get_all_devices(), new devices
were added to dev-cache before get_vgnameids() began
scanning labels. So, labels would be read from new devices.
(e.g. by the first 'pvs' command after the new device appeared.)
After that commit, _get_all_devices() was called
after get_vgnameids() was finished scanning labels.
So, new devices would be missed while scanning labels.
When _get_all_devices() saw the new devices (after
labels were scanned), those devices were added to
the .cache file. This meant that the second 'pvs'
command would see the devices because they would be
in .cache.
Now, the full device scan is factored out of
_get_all_devices() and called by itself at the
start of the command so that new devices will
be known before get_vgnameids() scans labels.
When two different VGs with the same name exist,
they are both stored in lvmcache using the vginfo->next
list. Previously, the code would print warnings (sometimes)
when adding VGs to this list. Now the duplicate VG names
are handled by higher level code, so this list no longer
needs to print warnings about duplicate VG names being found.
After recent changes to process_each, vg_read() is usually
given both the vgname and vgid for the intended VG.
However, in some cases vg_read() is given a vgid with
no vgname, or is given a vgname with no vgid.
When given a vgid with no vgname, vg_read() uses lvmcache
to look up the vgname using the vgid. If the vgname is
not found, vg_read() fails.
When given a vgname with no vgid, vg_read() should also
use lvmcache to look up the vgid using the vgname.
If the vgid is not found, vg_read() fails.
If the lvmcache lookup finds multiple vgids for the
vgname, then the lookup fails, causing vg_read() to fail
because the intended VG is uncertain.
Usually, both vgname and vgid for the intended VG are passed
to vg_read(), which means the lvmcache translations
between vgname and vgid are not done.
When not using lvmetad, this uses the system_id field in
the cached vginfo structs that are populated during a scan.
When using lvmetad, this requests the VG from lvmetad, and
checks the system_id field in the returned metadata.
When the command already knows both the vgid and vgname,
it should send both to lvmetad for a more exact request,
and it can save lvmetad the work of a name lookup.
Use 'mda' instead of NULL to quite Coverity warn.
However this code seems to be actually not even possible to hit.
With proper analysis it may possibly be dropped from code to
simplify logic.
When the command gets a list of alternate devices
from lvmetad, log each one directly. This is not
the same as the warnings when adding lvmcache,
which are related to which duplicate is preferred.
When lvmetad is used and lvmcache update function (lvmcache_update_vgname_and_id)
was called to update existing lvmcache records, a condition was met
which made to retun from the update function immediately, effectively
making it NOOP.
It seems there's no reason for such condition and lvmcache should be
update appropriately even when lvmetad used as lvmcache may be reused,
most notably in lvm shell.
It's possible this is a remnant of the lvmetad development code which
didn't get removed for some reason and the bug didn't get spotted
because lvm shell is not used often (the condition dates back to 2012
or so).
Example, lvmetad and lvm shell used:
lvm> pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda vg lvm2 a-- 124.00m 124.00m
Before this patch:
==================
lvm> vgremove vg
Volume group "vg" successfully removed
lvm> pvs
With this patch applied:
========================
lvm> vgremove vg
Volume group "vg" successfully removed
lvm> pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
The old code made two loops through the PVs: in the first
loop it found the max PV and VG name lengths, and in the
second loop it printed each PV using the name lengths as
field widths for aligning columns.
The new code uses process_each_pv() which makes one loop
through the PVs. In the *first* call to pvscan_single(),
the max name lengths are found by looping through the
lvmcache entries which have been populated by the generic
process_each code prior to calling any _single functions.
Subsequent calls to pvscan_single() reuse the max lengths
that were found by the first call.
If lvmlockd is running, lvmetad is configured (use_lvmetad=1),
but lvmetad is not running, then commands will seg fault
when trying to send a message to lvmetad.
The difference is lvmetad being "active", not just "used".
When lvmetad_pvscan_vg() reads VG metadata from each PV,
it compares it to the last one to verify it matches.
If the VG metadata does not match on the PVs, an error
is printed and it fails to read the VG. In this error
case, use log_debug to show the differences between
the two unmatching copies of the metadata.
One host changes a VG, making the cached VG on another
host invalid. The other host then rereads the VG from
disk to get the latest copy. If the first host removed
a PV from the VG, the second host attempts to reread the
VG from old PV when rescanning. Reading the VG from the
removed PV fails, causing vg_read to return "VG not found".
The fix is to simply not fail when a VG is not found while
rereading a PV and continue without it.
(This doesn't happen if the second host happens to first
run a command like 'vgs' that triggers a global revalidation
of metadata.)
The code was expecting the wrong return value from
compare_config, which returns 0 when equal.
This is a problem for a lockd VG using multiple PVs
when the VG needs to be rescanned.
Previously, a command would only rescan a lockd VG
when lvmetad returned the "vg_invalid" flag indicating
that the cached copy was invalid (which is done by
lvmlockd.) This is still the only usual reason for
rescanning a lockd VG, but two new special cases are
added where we also do the rescan:
. When the --shared option is used to display lockd VGs
from hosts not using lvmlockd. This is the same case
as using --foreign to display foreign VGs, but --shared
was missing the corresponding bits to rescan the VGs.
. When a lockd VG is allowed to be read for displaying
after failing to acquire the lock from lvmlockd. In
this case, the usual mechanism for validating the
cache is missed, so assume the cache would have been
invalidated. (This had been a previous todo item
that was lost during other cleanup.)
These were long-standing todos that were lost track of.
This reverts commit 70db1d523d.
Since we use 'strncpy' even for case where it exactly matches
the buffer size and \0 is not expected to be added there.
This tries harder to avoid creating duplicate global locks in
sanlock VGs by refusing to create a new sanlock VG with a
global lock if other sanlock VGs exist that may have a gl.
vgsummary information contains provisional VG information
that is obtained without holding the VG lock. This info
can be used to lock the VG, and then read it with vg_read().
After the VG is read properly, the vgsummary info should
be verified.
Add the VG lock_type to the vgsummary. It needs to be
known before the VG can be locked and read.
pvscan autoactivation does not work for lockd VGs because
lock start is needed on a lockd VG before locking can be
done for it. Add a check to skip the attempt at autoactivate
rather than calling it, knowing it will fail.
Add a comment explaining why pvscan --cache works fine for
lockd VGs without locks, and why autoactivate is not done.
log_warn was added recently because no known code used
the given condition, but running pvcreate on an existing
PV uses this case, and should not produce a warning.
Put the change from commit #10d27998b3d2f6100e9e29e83d1d99948c55875f
back so we have working tree again for now. This code needs a bit of
a cleanup to return proper return value to check...

This is the client side handling of the global_invalid state
added to lvmetad in commit c595b50cec8a6b95c6ac4988912d1412f3cc0237.
The function added here:
. checks if the global state in lvmetad is invalid
. if so, scans disks to update the state in lvmetad
. clears the global_invalid flag in lvmetad
. updates the local udev db to reflect any changes
and update the lvmetad copy after it is reread from disk.
This is the client side handling of the vg_invalid state
added to lvmetad in commit c595b50cec8a6b95c6ac4988912d1412f3cc0237.
lvmetad_init() should not be called with open connection to the daemon.
Doing so is considered to be an internall error within lvm2 code.
Such coincidence can't occur within current code. Let's assure us it won't
ever happen.
Some of descritpions were misleading at least. Some were completely
off the reality.
lvmetad_init doesn't re-establish or initialise a connection
lvmetad_active and lvmetad_connect_or_warn can do so.
This is an alternative/equivalent to commit
ca67cf84df
The problem (wrong label->dev after a new preferred
duplicate device is chosen) was isolated to the lvmetad
case (non-lvmetad worked fine), and this fixes the problem
by setting the new label->dev in the lvmetad-specific
code rather than in the general lvmcache code.
In process_each_{vg,lv,pv} when no vgname args are given,
the first step is to get a list of all vgid/vgname on the
system. This is exactly what lvmetad returns from a
vg_list request. The current code is doing a vg_lookup
on each VG after the vg_list and populating lvmcache with
the info for each VG. These preliminary vg_lookup's are
unnecessary, because they will be done again when the
processing functions call vg_read. This patch eliminates
the initial round of vg_lookup's, which can roughly cut in
half the number of lvmetad requests and save a lot of extra work.
Example:
/dev/loop0 and /dev/loop1 are duplicates,
created by copying one backing file to the
other.
'identity /dev/loopX' creates an identity
mapping for loopX named idmloopX, which
adds a duplicate for the named device.
The duplicate selection code for lvmetad is
incomplete, and lvmetad is disabled for this
example.

pv_write is called both to write orphans and to rewrite PV headers
of PVs in VGs. It needs to select the correct VG id so that the
internal cache state gets updated correctly.
It only affected commands that involved further steps after
the pv_write and was often masked because the metadata would
be re-read off disk and correct itself.
"Incorrect metadata area header checksum" warnings appeared.
Example:
Create vg1 containing dev1, dev2 and dev3.
Hide dev1 and dev2 from the system.
Fix up vg1 with vgreduce --removemissing.
Bring back dev1 and dev2.
In a single operation reinstate dev1 and dev2 into vg1 (vgextend).
Done as separate operations (automatically fix-up dev1 and dev2 as orphans,
then vgextend) it worked, but done all in one go the internal cache got
corrupted and warnings about checksum errors appeared.
Commit 80f4b4b803
introduced undesirable side-effects for lvm2app user
which happens to be our own python binding.
It appear obtaing pvs list keeps global lock.
So restricting this to VG_GLOBAL READ locks and skip
the drop skip if WRITE lock is held.
Refactor the recent metadata-reading optimisation patches.
Remove the recently-added cache fields from struct labeller
and struct format_instance.
Instead, introduce struct lvmcache_vgsummary to wrap the VG information
that lvmcache holds and add the metadata size and checksum to it.
Allow this VG summary information to be looked up by metadata size +
checksum. Adjust the debug log messages to make it clear when this
shortcut has been successful.
(This changes the optimisation slightly, and might be extendable
further.)
Add struct cached_vg_fmtdata to format-specific vg_read calls to
preserve state alongside the VG across separate calls and indicate
if the details supplied match, avoiding the need to read and
process the VG metadata again.
Fixes segfault when 'pvs' encounters two different PVs sharing the same
uuid but one an orphan, the other in a VG.
If VG_GLOBAL is held, there seems no point in doing a full scan more
than once.
If undesirable side-effects show up, we can try restricting this to
VG_GLOBAL READ locks. The original code dates back to 2.02.40.
Metadata areas which are marked as ignored should not be scanned
and read during pvscan --cache. Otherwise, this can cause lvmetad
to cache out-of-date metadata in case other PVs with fresh metadata
are missing by chance.
Make this to work like in non-lvmetad case where the behaviour would
be the same as if the PV was orphan (in case we have no other PVs
with valid non-ignored metadata areas).
When lvm1 PVs are visible, and lvmetad is used, and the foreign
option was included in the reporting command, the reporting
command would fail after the 'pvscan all devs' function saw
the lvm1 PVs. There is no reason the command should fail
because of the lvm1 PVs; they should just be ignored.
A full search for duplicate PVs in the case of pvs -a
is only necessary when duplicates have previously been
detected in lvmcache. Use a global variable from lvmcache
to indicate that duplicate PVs exist, so we can skip the
search for duplicates when none exist.
When multiple duplicate devices are specified on the
command line, the PV is processed once for each of them,
but pv->dev is the device used each time.
This overrides the PV device to reflect the duplicate
device that was specified on the command line. This is
done by hacking the lvmcache to replace pv->dev with the
device of the duplicate being processed. (It would be
preferable to override pv->dev without munging the content
of the cache, and without sprinkling special cases throughout
the code.)
This override only applies when multiple duplicate devices are
specified on the command line. When only a single duplicate
device of pv->dev is specified, the priority is to display the
cached pv->dev, so pv->dev is not overridden by the named
duplicate device.
In the examples below, loop3 is the cached device referenced
by pv->dev, and is given priority for processing. Only after
loop3 is processed/displayed, will other duplicate devices
loop0/loop1 appear (when requested on the command line.)
With two duplicate devices, loop0 and loop3:

Processes a PV once for each time a device with its PV ID
exists on the command line.
This fixes a regression in the case where:
. devices /dev/sdA and /dev/sdB where clones (same PV ID)
. the cached VG references /dev/sdA
. before the regression, the command: pvs /dev/sdB
would display the cached device clone /dev/sdA
. after the regression, pvs /dev/sdB would display nothing,
causing vgimportclone /dev/sdB to fail.
. with this fix, pvs /dev/sdB displays /dev/sdA
Also, pvs /dev/sdA /dev/sdB will report two lines, one for each
device on the command line, but /dev/sdA is displayed for each.
This only works without lvmetad.
There are actually three filter chains if lvmetad is used:
- cmd->lvmetad_filter used when when scanning devices for lvmetad
- cmd->filter used when processing lvmetad responses
- cmd->full_fiilter (which is just cmd->lvmetad_filter + cmd->filter chained together) used
for remaining situations
This patch adds the third one - "cmd->full_filter" - currently this is
used if device processing does not fall into any of the groups before,
for example, devices which does not have the PV label yet and we're just
creating a new one or we're processing the devices where the list of the
devices (PVs) is not returned by lvmetad initially.
Currently, the cmd->full_filter is used exactly in these functions:
- lvmcache_label_scan
- _pvcreate_check
- pvcreate_vol
- lvmdiskscan
- pvscan
- _process_each_label
If lvmetad is used, then simply cmd->full_filter == cmd->filter because
cmd->lvmetad_filter is NULL in this case.
We need to use proper filter chain when we disable lvmetad use
explicitly in the code by calling lvmetad_set_active(0) while
overriding existing configuration. We need to reinitialize filters
in this case so proper filter chain is used. The same applies
for the other way round - when we enable lvmetad use explicitly in
the code (though this is not yet used).
With this change, the filter chains used look like this now:
A) When *lvmetad is not used*:
- persistent filter -> regex filter -> sysfs filter ->
global regex filter -> type filter ->
usable device filter(FILTER_MODE_NO_LVMETAD) ->
mpath component filter -> partitioned filter ->
md component filter
B) When *lvmetad is used* (two separate filter chains):
- the lvmetad filter chain used when scanning devs for lvmetad update:
sysfs filter -> global regex filter -> type filter ->
usable device filter(FILTER_MODE_PRE_LVMETAD) ->
mpath component filter -> partitioned filter ->
md component filter
- the filter chain used for lvmetad responses:
persistent filter -> usable device filter(FILTER_MODE_POST_LVMETAD) ->
regex filter
We used to print an error message whenever we tried to deal with devices that
lvmetad knew about but were rejected by a client-side filter. Instead, we now
check whether the device is actually absent or only filtered out and only print
a warning in the latter case.
The list of strings is used quite frequently and we'd like to reuse
this simple structure for report selection support too. Make it part
of libdevmapper for general reuse throughout the code.
This also simplifies the LVM code a bit since we don't need to
include and manage lvm-types.h anymore (the string list was the
only structure defined there).
Recent debug tracing commit introduce read of uninitialized memory,
since VGID is not really a proper string which ends with '\0'.
Enforce at most 32 (ID_LEN) chars are read from vgid.
(in release fix)
Since commit f12ee43f2e call destroy,
it start to check all VGs are unlocked. However when we become_daemon,
we simply reset locking (since lock is still kept by parent process).
So implement a simple 'reset' flag.
Decorate NULL returns with debug_cache output so the
debug log doesn't contain spurios <bactrace> line without
any reason for it.
Add internal errors when cache is misused.
This prevents numerous VG refreshes on each "pvscan --cache -aay" call
if the VG is found complete. We need to issue the refresh only if the PV:
- is new
- was gone before and now it reappears (device "unplug/plug back" scenario)
- the metadata has changed
Test LVM_LVMETAD_PIDFILE for pid for lvm command.
Fix WHATS_NEW envvar name usage
Fix init order in prepare_lvmetad to respect set vars
and avoid clash with system settings.
Update test to really test the 'is running' message.
Several fields used to display 0 if undefined. Recent changes
to the way the fields are reported threw away some tests for
valid pointers, leading to segfaults with 'pvs -o all'.
Reinstate the original behaviour.
If a PV in an existing VG becomes orphaned (with 'pvcreate -ff', for
example) the VG struct cached against its vginfo must be invalidated.
This is because the struct device it references no longer contains
the PV label so becomes incorrect.
This triggers the error:
Internal error: PV $dev unexpectedly not in cache.
when the PV from the cached VG metadata is subsequently looked up
in the cache.
Bug introduced in 2.02.87 by commit 7ad0d47c3c
("Cache and share generated VG structs").

Introduce FMT_OBSOLETE to identify pool metadata and use it and FMT_MDAS
instead of hard-coded format names.
Explain device accesses on pvscan --cache man page.
