0e06c92fdf Propagate commit and revert metadata event to other nodes in cluster.
This patch tries to correctly track changes in lvmcache related to commit/revert.

For vg_commit: if there is cached precommitted metadata, after successfull commit
these metadata must be tracked as committed.

For vg_revert: remote nodes must drop precommitted metadata and its flag in lvmcache.

(N.B. Patch do not touch LV locks here in any way.)

All this machinery is needed to properly solve remote node cache invalidaton which
cause several problems recently observed.

c9118a1d20 Proper mask lock mode for vg lock.
Lock mode is int masked by LCK_TYPE_MASK, always.

Patch also remove uneccessary masking lock flag on sender side,
if masking is needed, it is don on client side already.

d37be0b865 Add possibility to handle precommitted metadata in lvmcache.

 - add lvmcache_commit_metadata() which upgrades precommitted metadata in cache

No functional change in this patch - just preparation for following change.

7251c8f3a5 Get rid of magic masks in cluster locking code.
Patch should not cause any problems, only real change is

6b8304ab43 Fix memory lock imbalance in locking code.
(This affects only cluster locking because only cluster
locking module set LCK_PRE_MEMLOCK.)

With currect code you get
# vgchange -a n
  Internal error: _memlock_count has dropped below 0.
when using cluster locking.

It is caused by _unlock_memory calls here

  if ((flags & (LCK_SCOPE_MASK | LCK_TYPE_MASK)) == LCK_LV_RESUME)
     memlock_dec();

Unfortunately it is also (wrongly) called in immediate unlock
(when LCK_HOLD is not set) from lock_vol
(LCK_UNLOCK is misinterpreted as LCK_LV_RESUME).

Avoid this by comparing original flags and provide memlock
code type of operation (suspend/resume).

3de6df8410 Enforce an alphabetical lock ordering for vgname locks.
Add a new constraint that vgname locks must be obtained in
alphabetical order.  At this point, we have test coverage for
the 3 commands affected - vgsplit, vgmerge, and vgrename.
Tests have been updated to cover these commands.
Going forward any command or library call that must obtain
more than one vgname lock must do so in alphabetical order.
Future patches will update lvm2app to enforce this ordering.

6ee7d2aa53 Remove lockingfailed().
We provide a lock type that behaves like no_locking, but is not
  clustered. Moreover, it also forbids any write locks. This magically (and
  consistently) prevents use of clustered VGs, or changing local VGs with
  --ignorelockingfailure. As a bonus, we can remove the special hacks in a few
  places. Of course, people looking for trouble can always set their locking_type
  to 0 to override.

fa6dca9f28 Add infrastructure for queriying for remote locks.
Current code, when need to ensure that volume is not
active on remote node, it need to try to exclusive
activate volume.

Patch adds simple clvmd command which queries all nodes
for lock for given resource.

The lock type is returned in reply in text.

(But code currently uses CR and EX modes only.)

5a820745ce Remove NON_BLOCKING lock flag from tools and set a policy to auto-set.
As a simplification to the tools and further liblvm, this patch pushes
the setting of NON_BLOCKING lock flag inside the lock_vol() call.
The policy we set is if any existing VGs are currently locked, we
set the NON_BLOCKING flag.

Should be no functional change.

dfbc015c69 Fix remote metadata backup for clvmd
Run backup of metadata on remote nodes in the
same place like local node - when calling backup().

Introduce backup_locally() which calls only
local backup if needed.

Remote backup is now trigerred by LCK_VG_BACKUP flag
combination (special VG lock).

This lock type will call check_current_backup()
(including backup_locally() call) and updates
metadata on all nodes.

(Patch fixes non-functional remote backup,
current call during VG lock never triggers.)

8e1d5615b4 Introduce memory pool per volume group.
Since now, all code reading volume group is responsible for releasing
the memory allocated by calling vg_release(vg).
(For simplicity of use, vg_releae can be called for vg == NULL,
the same logic like free(NULL)).

Also providing simple macro for unlocking & releasing in one step,
tools usualy uses this approach.

The global memory pool (cmd->mem) should be used only for global
physical volume operations.

This patch have to be applied with all subsequent patches to complete
memory pool per vg logic.

Using separate memory pool has quite bit memory saving impact when
using large VGs, this is mainly needed when we have to use
preallocated and locked memory (and should not overflow from that
memory space).

0296197999 Create global is_static() to eliminate from the library init function.
Very simple / crude method of removing 'is_static' from initialization.
Why should we require an application tell us whether it is linked
statically or dynamically to libLVM?  If the application is linked
statically, but libraries exist and dlopen() calls succeed, why
do we care if it's statically linked?

Clear many compiler warnings (i386) & associated bugs - hopefully without
introducing too many new bugs:-)  (Same exercise required for other archs.)
Default compilation has optimisation - or else use ./configure --enable-debug

25b733809a Merge with text format branch.
Lots of changes/very little testing so far => there'll be bugs!

Use 'vgcreate -M text' to create a volume group with its metadata stored
in text files.  Text format metadata changes should be reasonably atomic,
with a (basic) automatic recovery mechanism if the system crashes while a
change is in progress.

Add a metadata section to lvm.conf to specify multiple directories if
you want (recommended) to keep multiple copies of the metadata (eg on
different filesystems).

e.g. metadata {
        dirs = ["/etc/lvm/metadata1","/usr/local/lvm/metadata2"]
}

Plenty of refinements still in the pipeline.

15c325f06a o Use new LCK_HOLD flag to indicate whether lock should be held on return
from lock_vol() - otherwise it now attempts to acquire the lock and then
  immediately releases it.
o Extend the id field in struct logical_volume to hold VG uuid + LV uuid
  for format1. This unique lvid can be used directly when calling lock_vol().
o Add the VG uuid to vgcache to make VG uuid lookups possible.  (Another
  step towards using them instead of VG names internally.)
