Add --config for overriding most config file settings from cmdline.
Quote arguments when printing command line.
Remove linefeed from 'initialising logging' message.
Add 'Completed' debug message.
Don't attempt library exit after reloading config files.
Always compile with libdevmapper, even if device-mapper is disabled.
Fix some memory leaks in error paths found by coverity.
Use C99 struct initialisers.
Move DEFS into configure.h.
Clean-ups to remove miscellaneous compiler warnings.
[Some activation-related features will stop working for a while now.
Some types of activation are getting split into two steps, with the
first step using the precommitted metadata.]
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
allocation policy. This can currently take one of three values:
typedef enum {
ALLOC_NEXT_FREE,
ALLOC_STRICT,
ALLOC_CONTIGUOUS
} alloc_policy_t;
Notice that 'SIMPLE' has turned into the slightly more meaningful NEXT_FREE.
ii) Put code into display.[hc] for converting one of these enums to a
text representation and back again.
ii) Updated the text format so this also has the alloc_policy field.
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.
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.)
all since it only supports vg_write. It has been replaced with:
int archive_vg(struct volume_group *vg,
const char *dir,
const char *desc,
uint32_t retain_days,
uint32_t min_archive);
which is now called directly by tools/archive.c
o Text format now has a description and time field at the top level.
o archiving and backup set the description appropriately. eg,
for an archive:
description = "Created *before* executing 'lvextend test_vg/lvol0 -l +1'."
creation_time = 1013166332
for a backup:
description = "Created *after* executing 'lvextend test_vg/lvol0 -l +1'."
creation_time = 1013166332
This is preparing the way for a simple vgcfgundo command.
slightly different from the current LVM1 method.
lvcreate --persistent y --minor 10 (to specify when created)
lvchange --persistent n (to turn off)
lvchange --persistent y --minor 11 (to change)
--persistent uses a new LV status flag stored on disk
minor number is stored on disk the same way as LVM1 does
(but major number stored is 0; any LVM1 major/minor setting gets lost)
lvchange -ay --minor 12 (to activate using minor 12, regardless of the
on-disk setting, which doesn't get changed)
--minor == -m
--persistent == -M
missing from a VG. (Linear targets use the device-mapper 'error' target
which returns ioerror; striped targets use '/dev/ioerror' for now - which must
already exist e.g. as a sufficiently large block device version of /dev/zero).
Otherwise LVM1 decides the PV structure is corrupt.
But do we need to keep both pv->pe_size and vg->extent_size
in internal metadata or can we generate pvd->pe_size when writing out
a PV that belongs to a VG?
struct pv_list {
struct list list;
struct physical_volume pv;
};
to
struct pv_list {
struct list list;
struct physical_volume *pv;
};
o New function in toollib 'create_pv_list', which creates a list of pv's
from a given command line array of pv's.
o Changed lvcreate/extend to use this (fixes lvextend [pv list] bug).
onto a new device). uuid specified must not already exist on the system.
o More message tidying.
o When checking for label, only read PV metadata.
o Add ataraid. [Needs moving into config/defaults files.]
is active in the device-mapper.
o Many operations can be carried out regardless of whether the VG is
active or not.
o vgscan does not activate anything - use vgchange.
o Change lvrename to support renaming of active LVs.
o Remove '//' appearing in some pathnames.
o Dummy lv_check_segments() for compilation.
logical volumes. It includes:
format1 changes.
metadata.h changes.
lv_manip.c changed (striped allocation still not done though).
activate.c changes.
Nothing has been near a compiler as yet.
Alasdair can you look at changing display.c to use to output the mappings
in a more segment oriented format please ?
I haven't put the span list into struct physical_volume to represent allocated
extents. I think the burden of maintaining it for things like lv_extend may
out weigh it's uses.
