Rather than attempting to remove all the images of a mirrored
log volume via remove_mirror_images, simply remove the log
if all its devices have failed.
Taka was the first to report that there is still an outstanding
issue with handling this case. I've managed to reproduce it
only very rarely, and am still working on identifying the problem.
Failing to handle the problem rarely is better than not handling
the scenario at all, so I'm checking this in.
Allow metadataignore flag to be passed in to pvcreate.
Ideally, more refactoring of the mda allocation / initialization
is warranted, but for now, we just add another parameter to 'add_mda'
to take an existing mda ignored flag. We need to do this or pv_write
loses the state of the mda 'ignored' flag before copying and writing
to disk.
In preparation to call this from both pvcreate as well as pvchange,
move the guts of metadataignore into a library function.

Allowing an 'all' and 'unmanaged' value is more intuitive, and
provides a simple way for users to get back to original LVM behavior
of metadata written to all PVs in the volume group.
If the user requests "--vgmetadatacopies unmanaged", this instructs
LVM not to manage the ignore bits to achieve a specific number of
metadata copies in the volume group. The user is free to use
"pvchange --metadataignore" to control the mdas on a per-PV basis.
If the user requests "--vgmetadatacopies all", this instructs LVM
to do 2 things: 1) clear all ignore bits, and 2) set the "unmanaged"
policy going forward.
Internally, we use the special MAX_UINT32 value to indicate 'all'.
This 'just' works since it's the largest value possible for the
field and so all 'ignore' bits on all mdas in the VG will get
cleared inside _vg_metadata_balance(). However, after we've
called the _vg_metadata_balance function, we check for the special
'all' value, and if set, we write the "unmanaged" value into the
metadata. As such, the 'all' value is never written to disk.

Now that we have both --pvmetadatacopies and --vgmetadatacopies,
we need to make sure --metadatacopies gets interpreted correctly.
For pv commands, --metadatacopies should imply --pvmetadatacopies,
and for vg commands, --vgmetadatacopies.
Note: this will change the behavior of vgcreate with --metadatacopies
to be a synonym for --vgmetadatacopies. Previously, --metadatacopies
would apply to any PVs given with vgcreate that needed an implicit
pvcreate. As a result, one small change is needed to one of the nightly
tests - t-vgcreate-usage.

When vgmerge is called we move the mdas from the source to the
destination. With metadata balancing we now have another mda
list, fid->metadata_areas_ignored, so move the mdas on this list
as well.
This patch should not matter as the code is written today. However
we include it for completeness in the case that _vgmerge_single()
is refactored and/or moved into a library function.

Allow parsing of --vgmetadatacopies for vgcreate. Accept
--metadatacopies as a synonym for --vgmetadatacopies.

When a user explicitly sets a new mda ignore value for a PV, we
should update vg_mda_copies accordingly. When the VG is written
out, the user would not want the new ignore state to get lost as
a result of the vg_mda_copies value and logic in the vg_write
path.

Update logic in vgchange to handle --vgmetadatacopies, allow
--metadatacopies as a synonym to --vgmetadatacopies,
and add these parameters to args.h and commands.h
Forbit both --vgmetadatacopies and --metadatacopies as only
one allowed.

Add a field to struct volume_group to later implement metadata
balancing:
- mda_copies: target # of non-ignored mdas in the VG; default 0 (do
not control pv 'ignore mdas' bit.
This patch just adds the parameter to the structures with the default
values but does not modify any commands. Should be no functional change.

This patch just modifies pvchange to call the underlying ignore
functions for mdas. Ensure special cases do not reflect changes
in metadata (PVs with 0 mdas, setting ignored when already ignored,
clearing ignored when not ignored).

the failure of a device that contained both a image of
a mirror and an image of the mirrored log. The order
of the handling of those faults was important (and
wrong), this patch corrects that.
Patch-From: Takahiro Yasui <tyasui@redhat.com>
Activate only the first replicator-dev LV, that activates all other
related LVs from Replicator. In case of error during this activation,
it will not retry again for other heads (less confusing error log).
As for _process_one_vg() we need similar retry loop for
process_each_lv_in_vg(). This patch retries to process
failed LVs with reopened VGs.
Patch does not add any extra repeated invocations if there is not
found any missing VG during LV processing.
Patch modifes behavior of _process_one_vg().
In the first pass vg_read() collectis for replicator sorted list of
additional VGs during lock_vol().
If any other VG is needed by the replicator and it is not yet opened
then next iteration loop is taken with all collected VGs.
Flag vg->cmd_missing_vgs detects missing VGs.
Patch adds failed_lvnames to the list of parameters for process_each_lv_in_vg().
If the list is not NULL it will be filled with LV names of failing LVs
during function execution.
Application could later reiterate only on failed LVs.
Earlier patches added some infrastructure to lookup a vgname from
a pvname. We now can cleanup some of the pvchange and other code
by requiring callers that want to modify some pv property:
1) lookup the vgname by the pvname
2) use the vgname to obtain a vg handle
3) get the pv handle from the vg handle
This should work going forward and be a much cleaner interface,
as we move away from pvs as standalone objects.
A shortcut for --ignorelockingfailure, --ignoremonitoring, --poll n options
and LVM_SUPPRESS_LOCKING_FAILURE_MESSAGES environment variable used all at
once in initialisation scripts (e.g. rc.sysinit or initrd).
