Enhance lv_info with lv_info_with_name_check.
This 'variant' not only check existance if UUID in DM table
but also compares its DM name whether it's matching expected LV name.
Otherwise activation may 'skip' activation with rename in case the
DM UUID already exists, just device is different name.
This change make fairly easier manipulation with i.e. detached mirror
leg which ATM is using same UUID - just the LV name have been changed.
Used code was not able to run 'activation' (and do a rename) and just
skipped the call. So the code used to do a workaround and 'tried'
to deactivate such LV firts - this however work only in non-clvmd case,
as cluster was not having the lock for deactivated LV.
With this extended lv_info code will run 'activation' and will
synchronize the name to match expected LV name.
Patch extends _lv_info() with new paramter 'with_name_check',
which is later translated into 'name_check' argument for
_info_run() which in case of name mismatch evaluates the
check as if device does not exists.
Such call is only used in one place _lv_activate() which then
let activation run. All other invocation of _info() calls
are left intact.
TODO: fix mirror table manipulation (and raid)....
When checking device id of a thin device that is just being
merged - the snapshot actually could have been already finished
which means '-real' suffix for the LV is already gone and just LV
is there - so check explicitely for this condition and use
correct UUID for this case.
Since code is using -cdata and -cmeta UUID suffixes, it does not need
any new 'extra' ID to be generated and stored in metadata.
Since introduce of new 'segtype' cache+CACHE_USES_CACHEVOL we can
safely assume 'new' cache with cachevol will now be created
without extra metadata_id and data_id in metadata.
For backward compatibility, code still reads them in case older
version of metadata have them - so it still should be able
to activate such volumes.
Bonus is lowered size of lv structure used to store info about LV
(noticable with big volume groups).
Enhance activation of cached devices using cachevol.
Correctly instatiace cachevol -cdata & -cmeta devices with
'-' in name (as they are only layered devices).
Code is also a bit more compacted (although still not ideal,
as the usage of extra UUIDs stored in metadata is troublesome
and will be repaired later).
NOTE: this patch my brink potentially minor incompatiblity for 'runtime' upgrade
If the linear mapping is lost (for whatever reason, i.e.
test suite forcible 'dmsetup remove' linear LV,
lvm2 had hard times figuring out how to deactivate such DM table.
So add function which is in case inactive VDO pool LV checks if
the pool is actually still active (-vpool device present) and
it has open count == 0. In this case deactivation is allowed
to continue and cleanup DM table.
Enhance 'activation' experience for VDO pool to more closely match
what happens for thin-pools where we do use a 'fake' LV to keep pool
running even when no thinLVs are active. This gives user a choice
whether he want to keep thin-pool running (wihout possibly lenghty
activation/deactivation process)
As we do plan to support multple VDO LVs to be mapped into a single VDO,
we want to give user same experience and 'use-patter' as with thin-pools.
This patch gives option to activate VDO pool only without activating
VDO LV.
Also due to 'fake' layering LV we can protect usage of VDO pool from
command like 'mkfs' which do require exlusive access to the volume,
which is no longer possible.
Note: VDO pool contains 1024 initial sectors as 'empty' header - such
header is also exposed in layered LV (as read-only LV).
For blkid we are indentified as LV with UUID suffix - thus private DM
device of lvm2 - so we do not need to store any extra info in this
header space (aka zero is good enough).
When lvm2 is activating layered pool LV (to basically keep pool opened,
the other function used to be 'locking' be in sync with DM table)
use this LV in read-only mode - this prevents 'write' access into
data volume content of thin-pool.
Note: since EMPTY/unused thin-pool is created as 'public LV' for generic
use by any user who i.e. wish to maintain thin-pool and thins himself.
At this moment, thin-pool appears as writable LV. As soon as the 1st.
thinLV is created, layer volume will appear is 'read-only' LV from this moment.
Since we need to preserve allocated strings across 2 separate
activation calls of '_tree_action()' we need to use other mem
pool them dm->mem - but since cmd->mem is released between
individual lvm2 locking calls, we rather introduce a new separate
mem pool just for pending deletes with easy to see life-span.
(not using 'libmem' as it would basicaly keep allocations over
the whole lifetime of clvmd)
This patch is fixing previous commmit where the memory was
improperly used after pool release.
With previous patch 30a98e4d67 we
started to put devices one pending_delete list instead
of directly scheduling their removal.
However we have operations like 'snapshot merge' where we are
resuming device tree in 2 subsequent activation calls - so
1st such call will still have suspened devices and no chance
to push 'remove' ioctl.
Since we curently cannot easily solve this by doing just single
activation call (which would be preferred solution) - we introduce
a preservation of pending_delete via command structure and
then restore it on next activation call.
This way we keep to remove devices later - although it might be
not the best moment - this may need futher tunning.
Also we don't keep the list of operation in 1 trasaction
(unless we do verify udev symlinks) - this could probably
also make it more correct in terms of which 'remove' can
be combined we already running 'resume'.
Resuming of 'error' table entry followed with it's dirrect removal
is now troublesame with latest udev as it may skip processing of
udev rules for already 'dropped' device nodes.
As we cannot 'synchronize' with udev while we know we have devices
in suspended state - rework 'cleanup' so it collects nodes
for removal into pending_delete list and process the list with
synchronization once we are without any suspended nodes.
When pvmove is finished, we do a tricky operation since we try to
resume multiple different device that were all joined into 1 big tree.
Currently we use the infromation from existing live DM table,
where we can get list of all holders of pvmove device.
We look for these nodes (by uuid) in new metadata, and we do now a full
regular device add into dm tree structure. All devices should be
already PRELOAD with correct table before entering suspend state,
however for correctly working readahead we need to put correct info
also into RESUME tree. Since table are preloaded, the same table
is skip and resume, but correct read ahead is now set.
Udev is running udev-rule action upon 'resume'.
However lvm2 in special case is doing replacement of
'soon-to-be-removed' device with 'error' target for resuming
and then follows actual removal - the sequence is usually quick,
so when udev start action - it can result in 'strange' error
message in kernel log like:
Process '/usr/sbin/dmsetup info -j 253 -m 17 -c --nameprefixes --noheadings --rows -o name,uuid,suspended' failed with exit code 1.
To avoid this - we need to ensure there is synchronization wait for udev
between 'resume' and 'remove' part of this process.
However existing code put strict requirement to avoid synchronizing with
udev inside critical section - but this originally came from requirement
to not do anything special while there could be devices in
suspend-state. Now we are able to see differnce between critical section
with or without suspended devices. For udev synchronization only
suspended devices are prohibited to be there - so slightly relax
condition and allow calling and using 'fs_sync()' even inside critical
section - but there must not be any suspended device.
Move DM usage into dev_manager.c source file.
Also convert STATUS to INFO ioctl - as that's enough
to obtain UUID - this also avoid issuing unwanted flush on checked DM
device for being mpath.
and "cachepool" to refer to a cache on a cache pool object.
The problem was that the --cachepool option was being used
to refer to both a cache pool object, and to a standard LV
used for caching. This could be somewhat confusing, and it
made it less clear when each kind would be used. By
separating them, it's clear when a cachepool or a cachevol
should be used.
Previously:
- lvm would use the cache pool approach when the user passed
a cache-pool LV to the --cachepool option.
- lvm would use the cache vol approach when the user passed
a standard LV in the --cachepool option.
Now:
- lvm will always use the cache pool approach when the user
uses the --cachepool option.
- lvm will always use the cache vol approach when the user
uses the --cachevol option.
Since the parse_vdo_pool_status() become vdo_manip API part,
and there will be no 'dm' matching status parser,
the API can be simplified and closely match thin API here.
There's a small window during creation of a new RaidLV when
rmeta SubLVs are made visible to wipe them in order to prevent
erroneous discovery of stale RAID metadata. In case a crash
prevents the SubLVs from being committed hidden after such
wiping, the RaidLV can still be activated with the SubLVs visible.
During deactivation though, a deadlock occurs because the visible
SubLVs are deactivated before the RaidLV.
The patch adds _check_raid_sublvs to the raid validation in merge.c,
an activation check to activate.c (paranoid, because the merge.c check
will prevent activation in case of visible SubLVs) and shares the
existing wiping function _clear_lvs in raid_manip.c moved to lv_manip.c
and renamed to activate_and_wipe_lvlist to remove code duplication.
Whilst on it, introduce activate_and_wipe_lv to share with
(lvconvert|lvchange).c.
Resolves: rhbz1633167
Commit 813347cf84 added extra validation,
however in this particular we do want to trim suffix out so rather ignore
resulting error code here intentionaly.
If a single, standard LV is specified as the cache, use
it directly instead of converting it into a cache-pool
object with two separate LVs (for data and metadata).
With a single LV as the cache, lvm will use blocks at the
beginning for metadata, and the rest for data. Separate
dm linear devices are set up to point at the metadata and
data areas of the LV. These dm devs are given to the
dm-cache target to use.
The single LV cache cannot be resized without recreating it.
If the --poolmetadata option is used to specify an LV for
metadata, then a cache pool will be created (with separate
LVs for data and metadata.)

devices/scan_lvs (default 1) determines whether lvm
will scan LVs for layered PVs. The lvm behavior has
always been to scan LVs, but it's rare for LVs to have
layered PVs, and much more common for there to be many
LVs that substantially slow down scanning with no benefit.
This is implemented in the usable filter, and has the
same effect as listing all LVs in the global_filter.
With improved mirror activation code --splitmirror issue poppedup
since there was missing proper preload code and deactivation
for splitted mirror leg.
If a mirror LV is listed in read_only_volume_list, it would
still be activated rw. The activation would initially be
readonly, but the monitoring function would immediately
change it to rw. This was a regression from commit
fade45b1d1 mirror: improve table update
The monitoring function needs to copy the read_only setting
into the new set of mirror activation options it uses.
To support autoloading of VDO dm target driver loading of 'kvdo'
kernel module is needed - ATM it's not using 'dm-vdo' name.
So to support this strange name - add temporarily solution to
autoload kvdo kernel module in this case.
When pvmoving LV - the target for LV is a mirror so the validation
that checked the type is matching was incorrect.
While we need a more generic enhancment of LVS output for pvmoved LVs,
for now at least stop showing internal errors and 'X' symbols in attrs.
Basic LV functions:
activate_lv(), deactivate_lv(),
suspend_lv(), resume_lv()
were routed through the locking infrastruture on the way to:
lv_activate_with_filter(), lv_deactivate(),
lv_suspend_if_active(), lv_resume_if_active()
This commit removes the locking infrastructure from the
middle and calls the later functions directly from the former.
There were a couple of ancillary steps that the locking
infrastructure added along the way which are still included:
- critical section inc/dec during suspend/resume
- checking for active component LVs during activate
The "activation" file lock (serializing activation) has not
been kept because activation commands have been changed to
take the VG file lock exclusively which makes the activation
lock unused and unnecessary.
Different flavors of activate_lv() and lv_is_active()
which are meaningful in a clustered VG can be eliminated
and replaced with whatever that flavor already falls back
to in a local VG.
e.g. lv_is_active_exclusive_locally() is distinct from
lv_is_active() in a clustered VG, but in a local VG they
are equivalent. So, all instances of the variant are
replaced with the basic local equivalent.
For local VGs, the same behavior remains as before.
For shared VGs, lvmlockd was written with the explicit
requirement of local behavior from these functions
(lvmlockd requires locking_type 1), so the behavior
in shared VGs also remains the same.
As we start refactoring the code to break dependencies (see doc/refactoring.txt),
I want us to use full paths in the includes (eg, #include "base/data-struct/list.h").
This makes it more obvious when we're breaking abstraction boundaries, eg, including a file in
metadata/ from base/
