The new --valuesonly option causes the lvmconfig output to contain only
values without keys for each config node. This is practical mainly in
case where we use lvmconfig in scripts and we want to assign the value
to a different custom key or simply output the value itself without the
key.
For example:
# lvmconfig --type full activation/raid_fault_policy
raid_fault_policy="warn"
# lvmconfig --type full activation/raid_fault_policy --valuesonly
"warn"
# my_var=$(lvmconfig --type full activation/raid_fault_policy --valuesonly)
# echo $my_var
"warn"
Internally, NUM and BIN fields are marked as DM_REPORT_FIELD_TYPE_NUM_NUMBER
through libdevmapper API. The new 'json_std' format mandates that the report
string representing such a value must be a number, not an arbitrary string.
This is because numeric values in 'json_std' format do not have double quotes
around them. This practically means, we can't use string synonyms
("named reserved values") for such values and the report string must always
represent a proper number.
With 'json' and 'basic' formats, this is not an issue because 'basic' format
doesn't have any structure or typing at all and 'json' format puts all values
in quotes, including numeric ones.
If using JSON format for lvm shell's output, the error message about
exceeding the maximum number of arguments was not reported on output if
this condition was ever hit.
This is because the JSON format (as well as any other future format)
requires extra formatting compared to "basic" format and so it also
requires extra calls when it comes to reporting. The report needs to
be added to a report group and then popped and put on output with
specialized "dm_report_group_output_and_pop_all".
This "output and pop" is normally executed after we execute the command
in the lvm shell. When we didn't get to the command exection at all because
some precondition was not met (like hitting the limit for the number of
arguments for the command here), we skipped this important call and
so there was no log report output.
Right now, it's only this exact error message for which we need to call
"output and pop" directly, all the other error messages are about
initializing and setting the log report itself which we can't report
obviously.

With this patch applied:

{
"log": [
{"log_seq_num":"1", "log_type":"error", "log_context":"shell", "log_object_type":"cmd", "log_object_name":"", "log_object_id":"", "log_object_group":"", "log_object_group_id":"", "log_message":"Too many arguments, sorry.", "log_errno":"-1", "log_ret_code":"0"}
]
}
If there's any other error message in the future before we execute the
command itself, we also need to call the "output and pop" directly.
When creating VDO pool based of % values, lvm2 is now more clever
and avoids to create 'unsupportable' sizes of physical backend
volumes as 16TiB is maximum size supported by VDO target
(and also limited by maximum supportable slabs (8192) based on slab
size.
If the requested virtual size is approaching max supported size 4PiB,
switch header size to 0.
Add function to check for avaialble memory for particular VDO
configuration - to avoid unnecessary machine swapping for configs
that will not fit into memory (possibly in locked section).
Formula tries to estimate RAM size machine can use also with
swapping for kernel target - but still leaving some amount of
usable RAM.
Estimation is based on documented RAM usage of VDO target.
If the /proc/meminfo would be theoretically unavailable, try to use
'sysinfo()' function, however this is giving only free RAM without
the knowledge about how much RAM could be eventually swapped.
TODO: move _get_memory_info() into generic lvm2 API function used
by other targets with non-trivial memory requirements.
Fixes commit b8f4ec846 "display: ignore --reportformat"
by restoring the --reportformat option to pvdisplay.
Adding -C to pvdisplay turns the command into a reporting
command (like pvs, vgs, lvs) in which --reportformat can
be useful.
When processing historical LVs inside process_each_lv_in_vg for
selection, we need to use dummy "_historical_lv" for select_match_lv.
This is because a historical LV is not an actual LV, but only a tiny
representation with subset of original properties that we recorded
(name, uuid...).
To use the same processing functions we use for full-fledged non-historical
LVs, we need to use the prefilled "_historical_lv" structure which has all
the other missing properties hard-coded.
Allow to use --vdosettings with lvcreate,lvconvert,lvchange.
Support settings currenly only configurable via lvm.conf.
With lvchange we require inactivate LV for changes to be applied.
Settings block_map_era_length has supported alias block_map_period.
When a VG has PVs with different device id types,
it would try to use the idtype of the previous PV
in the loop. This would produce an unncessary warning,
or could lead to using the devname idtype when a better
idtype is available.
In most installations, /dev/sda* or /dev/vda* should be included
in system.devices because the root, home, etc LVs are usually on
sda or vda.
Add a special case warning when a pvscan autoactivation command
sees that /dev/sda* or /dev/vda* are excluded by system.devices,
either not listed or having a different device id.
Change messages that refer to devices being "excluded by filters"
to say just "excluded". This will avoid mistaking the word
"filters" with the lvm.conf filter setting.
It's more logical to warn about --nolocking in the man page
before it's used rather than after it's used and too late.
Also, warnings are usually for things the user may not know.
Use dev_cache_get_existing() in a few common, high level
locations where it's obvious that only existing dev-cache
entries are wanted. This can be expanded and used in more
locations (or dev_cache_get can stop creating new entries.)
When compiled and used with:
CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address -g -O0"
ASAN_OPTIONS=strict_string_checks=1:detect_stack_use_after_return=1:check_initialization_order=1:strict_init_order=1
we have few reported issue - they where not normally spotted, since
we were still accessing our own memory - but ouf of buffer-range.
TODO: there is still something to enhance with handling of #orphan vgids
. error exit means that lvmdevices --update would make a change.
. remove check of PART field from --check because it isn't used.
. unlink searched_devnames file to ensure check|update will search
The destination vg is first written with the EXPORTED flag,
then the source vg is written, then the destination vg is
written again without the EXPORTED flag. Remove an unnecessary
vg_read of the destination vg just before the second write.
Since we check for present DM devices - cache result for
futher use of checking presence of such device.
lvm2 uses cache result for label scan, but also when
it tries to activate or deactivate LV - however only simple
target 'striped' is reasonably supported.
Use disable_dm_devs to be able to control when lv_info()
get cache or uncached results.
TODO: support more type, however this is getting very complicated.
We used to reset 'settings' to their defaults after command is finished.
This however has a drawback we lose all the logging after this point.
So this patch disables this 'reset' to observe for side-effects.
lvm shell should be getting reset when next command is run -
so this might or might not have some 'hidden' effects.
ATM it looks like nothing really bad should happen - we just should be
able to get more logs - at least from normal commands.
Fixes commit "pvscan: match device arg to filter symlink"
which failed to account for the fact that filter entries
are not just path names but include "a" or "r", etc.
The device_hint name in the metadata was meant to prevent
autoactivation from md components, but the name checks were
more general and would catch unnecessary cases.
This fixes an issue related to the optimization in
"pvscan: only add device args to dev cache"
If the devices file is not used, and the lvm.conf filter
accepts devices via symlink names, then those devices won't
be accepted by pvscan for autoactivation. To resolve this,
recognize when the filter contains symlinks and disable the
optimization. When the optimization is disabled, a full
dev_cache_scan is performed, and symlinks are associated
with the device names passed to pvscan. filter-regex
will accept a device if symlinks to that device are accepted.
