New udev in rawhide seems to be 'dropping' udev rule operations for devices
that are no longer existing - while this is 'probably' a bug - it's
revealing moments in lvm2 that likely should not run in a single
transaction and we should wait for a cookie before submitting more work.
TODO: it seem more 'error' paths should always include synchronization
before starting deactivating 'just activated' devices.
We should probably figure out some 'automatic' solution for this instead
of placing sync_local_dev_name() all over the place...
Support internal removal of 'cache origin' volume - which we
do not normally expose to a user - however internal processing
loops may hit this condition (depending on order of list LVs).
So when this operation is internally requested - we automatically
try to remove it's 'holding' LV (cache LV) - which will also
remove the origin.
wipe_lv knows it's going to write the device, so it
can open rw from the start. It was opening readonly,
and then dev_write needed to reopen it readwrite.
When data are growing, adapt also size of metadata.
As we get way too many reports from users doing huge growths of
data portion while keep metadata small and avoiding using monitoring.
So to enhance the user-experience in case user requests grown of
thin-pool (without passing PV list for growth) - lvm2 will automaticaly
grown also the metadata part of thin-pool (if possible).
When lvextend extends an LV that is active with a shared
lock, use this as a signal that other hosts may also have
the LV active, with gfs2 mounted, and should have the LV
refreshed to reflect the new size. Use the libdlmcontrol
run api, which uses dlm_controld/corosync to run an
lvchange --refresh command on other cluster nodes.
Allow using caching with VDO.
User can either cache a single vdopool or
a vdo LV - difference when the caching is put-in depends on a use-case
and it's upto user to decide which kind of speed is expected.
and "cachepool" to refer to a cache on a cache pool object.
The problem was that the --cachepool option was being used
to refer to both a cache pool object, and to a standard LV
used for caching. This could be somewhat confusing, and it
made it less clear when each kind would be used. By
separating them, it's clear when a cachepool or a cachevol
should be used.
Previously:
- lvm would use the cache pool approach when the user passed
a cache-pool LV to the --cachepool option.
- lvm would use the cache vol approach when the user passed
a standard LV in the --cachepool option.
Now:
- lvm will always use the cache pool approach when the user
uses the --cachepool option.
- lvm will always use the cache vol approach when the user
uses the --cachevol option.
Fixing recent commit 022ebb0cfe
Resize already has size that needs to be counted with,
otherwise upsizing operation could turn into size reduction one.
Now with newer VDO kvdo target we can start to use standard mechanism
to enable resize of VDO volumes.
VDO pool can be grown.
Virtual volume grows on top of VDO pool when is not big enough.
Reduced VDOLV is calling discard for reduced areas - this can
take long time!
TODO: implement some pollable mechanism for out-of-lock TRIM.
When using 'lvcreate -l100%VG' and there is big disproportion between
real available space and requested setting - automatically fallback
to 100%FREE.
Difference can be seen when VG is big and already most space was
allocated, so the requestion 100%VG can end (and by spec for % modifier
it's correct) as LV with size of 1%VG. Usually this is not a big
problem - buit in some cases - like cache-pool allocation, this
can result a big difference for chunksize selection.
With this patch it's more closely match common-sense logic without
the need of reitteration of too big changes in lvm2 core ATM.
TODO: in the future there should be allocator solving all allocations
in a single call.
Scenario: Given an existed LV `lvol0`, I want to create another LV
on the PVs used by `lvol0`.
I use `build_parallel_areas_from_lv()` to obtain the `pv_list` of each segments.
However, the returned `pv_list` is not properly initialized, which causes
segfault in subsequent operations.
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.

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.)

When user create vdo-pool - use different automatic name.
So unlike with traditional LVs using lvol0, lvol1
use vpool0, vpool1...
TODO: apply similar for thin-pool & cache-pool...
When allocating thin-pool with more then 1 device - try to
allocate 'metadataLV' with reuse of log-type allocation for mirror LV.
It should be naturally place on other device then 'dataLV'.
However due to somewhat hard to follow allocation logic code,
it's been rejected allocation in cases where there was not
enough space for data or metadata on single PV, thus to successed,
usage of segments was mandatory.
While user may use:
allocation/thin_pool_metadata_require_separate_pvs=1
to enforce separe meta and data LV - on default settings, this is not
enable thus segment allocation is meant to work.
NOTE:
As already said - the original intention of this whole 'if()' is unclear,
so try to split this test into multiple more simple tests that are more readable.
TODO: more validation.
Allow creation of any virtual segment type with just --virtualsize
specified without any real extent size give.
TODO: likely --type error,zero might be later enhanced to use -V
(along with -L) - but since those targets do not allocate real
space, supporting -V makes sense with them.
Different flavors of activate_lv() and lv_is_active()
which are meaningful in a clustered VG can be eliminated
and replaced with whatever that flavor already falls back
to in a local VG.
e.g. lv_is_active_exclusive_locally() is distinct from
lv_is_active() in a clustered VG, but in a local VG they
are equivalent. So, all instances of the variant are
replaced with the basic local equivalent.
For local VGs, the same behavior remains as before.
For shared VGs, lvmlockd was written with the explicit
requirement of local behavior from these functions
(lvmlockd requires locking_type 1), so the behavior
in shared VGs also remains the same.
In this command, lvcreate creates a new LV and then combines
it with an existing cache pool, producing a cache LV. This
command was previously not allowed in in a shared VG.
As we start refactoring the code to break dependencies (see doc/refactoring.txt),
I want us to use full paths in the includes (eg, #include "base/data-struct/list.h").
This makes it more obvious when we're breaking abstraction boundaries, eg, including a file in
metadata/ from base/
There are likely more bits of code that can be removed,
e.g. lvm1/pool-specific bits of code that were identified
using FMT flags.
The vgconvert command can likely be reduced further.
The lvm1-specific config settings should probably have
some other fields set for proper deprecation.
