Ensure configure.h is always 1st. included header.
Maybe we could eventually introduce gcc -include option, but for now
this better uses dependency tracking.
Also move _REENTRANT and _GNU_SOURCE into configure.h so it
doesn't need to be present in various source files.
This ensures consistent compilation of headers like stdio.h since
it may produce different declaration.
. When using default settings, this commit should change
nothing. The first PE continues to be placed at 1 MiB
resulting in a metadata area size of 1020 KiB (for
4K page sizes; slightly smaller for larger page sizes.)
. When default_data_alignment is disabled in lvm.conf,
align pe_start at 1 MiB, based on a default metadata area
size that adapts to the page size. Previously, disabling
this option would result in mda_size that was too small
for common use, and produced a 64 KiB aligned pe_start.
. Customized pe_start and mda_size values continue to be
set as before in lvm.conf and command line.
. Remove the configure option for setting default_data_alignment
at build time.
. Improve alignment related option descriptions.
. Add section about alignment to pvcreate man page.
Previously, DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE was 255 sectors.
However, the fact that the config setting named
"default_data_alignment" has a default value of 1 (MiB)
meant that DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE was having no effect.
The metadata area size is the space between the start of
the metadata area (page size offset from the start of the
device) and the first PE (1 MiB by default due to
default_data_alignment 1.) The result is a 1020 KiB metadata
area on machines with 4KiB page size (1024 KiB - 4 KiB),
and smaller on machines with larger page size.
If default_data_alignment was set to 0 (disabled), then
DEFAULT_PVMETADATASIZE 255 would take effect, and produce a
metadata area that was 188 KiB and pe_start of 192 KiB.
This was too small for common use.
This is fixed by making the default metadata area size a
computed value that matches the value produced by
default_data_alignment.
Checks whether VDO support is enabled.
Detects presence of 'vdoformat' tool which is required for to format VDO pool.
ATM build of VDO is NOT automatically enabled (None is default).
To enable build of LVM with VDO support use:
configure --with-vdo=internal
TODO: Maybe future version may switch to link some small VDO library for formating
(would require linking and package dependency).
No point to start building lvm without this header file.
Although there could be 'some point' in supporting standalone build
of 'just' libdm where the libaio might be avoided.
TODO: think about configure option for building libdm only.
Add a daemon that can be launched to monitor a group of regions
corresponding to the extents of a file, and to update the regions as the
file's allocation changes.
The daemon is intended to be started from a library interface, but can
also be run from the command line:
dmfilemapd <fd> <group_id> <path> <mode> [<foreground>[<log_level>]]
Where fd is a file descriptor open on the mapped file, group_id is the
group identifier of the mapped group and mode is either "inode" or
"path". E.g.:
# dmfilemapd 3 0 vm.img inode 1 3 3<vm.img
...
If foreground is non-zero, the daemon will not fork to run in the
background. If verbose is non-zero, libdm and daemon log messages will
be printed.
It is possible for the group identifier to change when regions are
re-mapped: this occurs when the group leader is deleted (regroup=1 in
dm_stats_update_regions_from_fd()), and another region is created before
the daemon has a chance to recreate the leader region.
The operation is inherently racey since there is currently no way to
atomically move or resize a dm_stats region while retaining its
region_id.
Detect this condition and update the group_id value stored in the
filemap monitor.
A function is also provided in the the stats API to launch the filemap
monitoring daemon:
int dm_stats_start_filemapd(int fd, uint64_t group_id, const char *path,
dm_filemapd_mode_t mode, unsigned foreground,
unsigned verbose);
This carries out the first fork and execs dmfilemapd with the arguments
specified.
A dm_filemapd_mode_t value is specified by the mode argument: either
DM_FILEMAPD_FOLLOW_INODE, or DM_FILEMAPD_FOLLOW_PATH. A helper function,
dm_filemapd_mode_from_string(), is provided to parse a string containing
a valid mode name into the appropriate dm_filemapd_mode_t value.
The udev_device_get_is_initialized is available since libudev version
165. Older versions are still used somewhere (e.g. RHEL6). So better
check for this fn and use it only if it's available.
Commit 9403edbb93 move location of
configure.h and lvm-version.h.
Let's try even better place then /conf dir which should be left
for user configurable files.
Put these files right into include dir.
