e217873ed6 snapshot: add synchronization point
Synchronize with udev logic before reusing device as snapshot.

This patch tries to fix the problem with udev, where we manage
to 'active' LV for clearing, then we deactivate such device and
active again as member of 'origin&snapshot' tree all in 1 step.

There needs to be a sync point where udev has time to remove all links,
otherwise we race with scans and we may end-up with mysterious 'free'
links in the system pointing to wrong dm names.

This patch tries to fix failing topology cluster tests..

a4724350e4 lvmconfig: add --withspaces option
We shouldn't be adding spaces by default in output as that
may be be used already in scripts and especially for the eval
in shell scripts where spaces are not allowed between key
and value!

Add --withspaces option to lvmconfig for pretty output with
more space in for readability.

20e336f21c configure: add DEFAULT_USE_BLKID_WIPING
If blkid wiping is possible, than set use_blkid_wiping=1 and
use_blkid_wiping=0 otherwise for its default value. If blkid wiping
is disabled during configure and use_blkid_wiping=1 is set by chance,
it's simply ignored - this patch is just a cleanup that makes it more
obvious for the user (we use similar logic for use_lvmetad and
use_lvmpolld settings).

74bf75a2f5 config: use proper unconfigured default values for use_lvmetad and use_lvmpolld settings
Default value for lvmetad and lvmpolld has hooks in configure script,
the "lvmconfig --type default --unconfigured" should display:

   use_lvmetad = @DEFAULT_USE_LVMETAD@
   use_lvmpolld = @DEFAULT_USE_LVMPOLLD@

Note that these settings are not of string type. Recent change (the
DM_CONFIG_VALUE_FMT_STRING_NO_QUOTES formatting flag) makes it
possible to recognize that the setting is not of string type and if
there's unconfigured value defined for it, the enclosing " " is
automatically removed on output.

1545ebf938 config: cleanup default values for some configuration settings with array values
Do not use "#S" (blank string) as default value as that ends up with
'key = [ "" ]' to be generated which is not what we want in most cases.

Also, fix default values for global/{thin,cache}_{check,repair}_options
and avoid assigning blank values. For example, the thin_check_options
had this set as default value previously:

  "#S" DEFAULT_THIN_CHECK_OPTION1 "#S" DEFAULT_THIN_CHECK_OPTION2

If any (or both) of DEFAULT_THIN_CHECK_OPTION* variables was set
to "", we ended up with clumsy default value generated like:

  thin_check_options = [ "-q", "" ]

With this patch, we end up with correct:

  thin_check_options = [ "-q" ]

or, if all options are undefined:

  thin_check_options = [ ]

Which is the correct way to express this.

9465963faf config: add support for config value formatting flags
There are two basic groups of formatting flags (32 bits):
  - common ones applicable for all config value types (lower 16 bits)
  - type-related formatting flags (higher 16 bits)

With this patch, we initially support four new flags that
modify the the way the config value is displayed:

  Common flags:
  =============

  DM_CONFIG_VALUE_FMT_COMMON_ARRAY - causes array config values
    to be enclosed in "[ ]" even if there's only one item
    (previously, there was no way to recognize an array with one
     item and scalar value, hence array values with one member
     were always displayed without "[ ]" which libdm accepted
     when reading, but it may have been misleading for users)

  DM_CONFIG_VALUE_FMT_COMMON_EXTRA_SPACE - causes extra spaces to
    be inserted in "key = value" (or key = [ value, value, ... ] in
    case of arrays), compared to "key=value" seen on output before.
    This makes the output more readable for users.

  Type-related flags:
  ===================

  DM_CONFIG_VALUE_FMT_INT_OCTAL - prints integers in octal form with
    "0" as a prefix (libdm's config reading code can handle this via
    strtol just fine so it's properly recognized as number in octal
    form already if there's "0" used as prefix)

  DM_CONFIG_VALUE_FMT_STRING_NO_QUOTES - makes it possible to print
    strings without enclosing " "

This patch also adds dm_config_value_set_format_flags and
dm_config_value_get_format_flags functions to set and get
these formatting flags.

c23e7ff2a0 Reread global state the lvmetad copy is stale
This is the client side handling of the global_invalid state
added to lvmetad in commit c595b50cec8a6b95c6ac4988912d1412f3cc0237.

The function added here:
. checks if the global state in lvmetad is invalid
. if so, scans disks to update the state in lvmetad
. clears the global_invalid flag in lvmetad
. updates the local udev db to reflect any changes

bf77f71711 lvmetad: add invalidation method
Add the ability to invalidate global or individual VG metadata.
The invalid state is returned to lvm commands along with the metadata.
This allows lvm commands to detect stale metadata from the cache and
reread the latest metadata from disk (in a subsequent patch.)

These changes do not change the protocol or compatibility between
lvm commands and lvmetad.

Global information
------------------

Global information refers to metadata that is not isolated
to a single VG , e.g. the list of vg names, or the list of pvs.

When an external system, e.g. a locking system, detects that global
information has been changed from another host (e.g. a new vg has been
created) it sends lvmetad the message: set_global_info: global_invalid=1.
lvmetad sets the global invalid flag to indicate that its cached data is
stale.

When lvm commands request information from lvmetad, lvmetad returns the
cached information, along with an additional top-level config node called
"global_invalid".  This new info tells the lvm command that the cached
information is stale.

When an lvm command sees global_invalid from lvmated, it knows it should
rescan devices and update lvmetad with the latest information.  When this
is complete, it sends lvmetad the message: set_global_info:
global_invalid=0, and lvmetad clears the global invalid flag.  Further lvm
commands will use the lvmetad cache until it is invalidated again.

The most common commands that cause global invalidation are vgcreate and
vgextend.  These are uncommon compared to commands that report global
information, e.g. vgs.  So, the percentage of lvmetad replies containing
global_invalid should be very small.

VG information
--------------

VG information refers to metadata that is isolated to a single VG,
e.g. an LV or the size of an LV.

When an external system determines that VG information has been changed
from another host (e.g. an lvcreate or lvresize), it sends lvmetad the
message: set_vg_info: uuid=X version=N.  X is the VG uuid, and N is the
latest VG seqno that was written.  lvmetad checks the seqno of its cached
VG, and if the version from the message is newer, it sets an invalid flag
for the cached VG.  The invalid flag, along with the newer seqno are saved
in a new vg_info struct.

When lvm commands request VG metadata from lvmetad, lvmetad includes the
invalid flag along with the VG metadata.  The lvm command checks for this
flag, and rereads the VG from disk if set.  The VG read from disk is sent
to lvmetad.  lvmetad sees that the seqno in the new version matches the
seqno from the last set_vg_info message, and clears the vg invalid flag.
Further lvm commands will use the VG metadata from lvmetad until it is
next invalidated.

4c6b3f5ec3 tests: use vgscan after enable_dev
Since our test environment runs also in non-real-udev world,
it's using  /etc/.cache file with scanned files.

So in this case it is mandatory the user runs 'vgscan'
after a device reappears in the system.

This 'first' lvm2 command then fixes metadata (just like vgs did).

438a65dfdb display: drop allocation from display_lvname
Use of display_lvname() in plain log_debug() may accumulate memory in
command context mempool. Use instead small ringbuffer which allows to
store cuple (10 ATM) names so upto 10 full names can be used at one.

We are not keeping full VG/LV names as it may eventually consume larger
amount of RAM resouces if vgname is longer and lots of LVs are in use.

Note: if there would be ever needed for displaing more names at once,
the limit should be raised (e.g. log_debug() would need to print more
then 10 LVs on a single line).

1e6a926e85 filter: filter-usable: consider snapshot and origin LV as unusable if its component is suspended
Note that this is just a quick fix and it needs more robust fix to
encompass any combination, not just the (old) snapshot one!

This started with this report:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1219222

If we have devices/ignore_suspended_devices=1 set based on which we
filter out suspended devices as unusable (or if we ignore suspended
devices by force, e.g. during lvconvert called from dmeventd) and
when we have snapshot and snapshot origin devices in the play, we
need to look at their components unerneath (*-real and *-cow) to
check if they're not suspended. If they are, the snapshot/snapshot
origin is not usable as well and hence it needs to be filtered out
by filter-usable.c code which does suspended device filtering.

Not going into much details here, more details are in the bugzilla
mentioned above. However, this is a quick fix since snapshot
and this exact situation is not the only one. So this is
something that needs to be revisited and fixed properly
with full dm tree and checking the whole stack to state
whether the device at the very top is usable or not.

a9bc53d5f3 config: fix some settings incorrectly marked as CFG_DEFAULT_COMMENTED instead of CFG_DEFAULT_UNDEFINED and causing segfault
This patch fixes segfault which was caused by incorrectly marking some
settings CFG_DEFAULT_COMMENTED instead of CFG_DEFAULT_UNDEFINED - the
ones which have NULL default value, hence they're really undefined.
A regression caused by a98ceceb1d.

For example:

$ lvmconfig log/file
file="/a"

Before this patch:

$ lvmconfig --type diff
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

With this patch applied:

$ lvmconfig --type diff
log {
	file="/a"
}

The same applies for these settings:

  log/activate_file
  global/library_dir
  global/system_id_file
  <disk_area>/disk_area_id

There were also other settings with NULL default value and marked as
CFG_DEFAULT_COMMENTED instead of CFG_DEFAULT_UNDEFINED, but they were
cfg_array config settings where the NULL value was not causing segfault
(NULL == empty array).
