Reuse _node_send_messages for just checking
for valid transaction_id with preload.
This allows earlier detection of incosistent thin pool.
Code does the same thing, except for sending messages.
Improve testing of transation_id to not allow other difference
then either kernel TID is equal or is lower by oned and there
are queued messages for transaction.
Mark messages as submitted if the transaction_id is already matching.
Do not try to deactivate node on failure here and leave it on
proper error path of the caller.
Deactivation of top level node has to happen,
before traversing subtree.
Swap list logic and rather append new nodes to the head
and then use normal iteration.
(in-release update)
Avoid introducing libdm structure allocated in library user.
Use direct call with all currently supported args.
When new arg is added, new function will cover it.
I am reverting the commit below - removing the new 'dm_config_get_int'

Misc: New function for reading lvm config file fields
Introduce 'dm_config_get_int', which will be used by the upcoming
cachepool segment type.
This patch defines a structure for holding all of the device-mapper
cache target's status information. The associated function provides
an easy way for higher levels (LVM) to consume the information.
This patch finishes the device-mapper interface for the cache and
cachepool segment types (i.e. the cache target).
This patch adds the cache segment type - the second of two necessary
to create cache logical volumes. This segment type references the
cachepool (the small fast device) and the origin (the large slow device);
linking them to create the cache device. The cache device is the
hierarchical device-mapper device that the user ulitmately makes use
of.
The cache segment sources the information necessary to construct the
device-mapper cache target from the origin and cachepool segments to
which it links.
This patch adds the new cachepool segment type - the first of two
necessary to eventually create 'cache' logical volumes. In addition
to the new segment type, updates to makefiles, configure files, the
lv_segment struct, and some necessary libdevmapper flags.
The cachepool is the LV and corresponding segment type that will hold
all information pertinent to the cache itself - it's size, cachemode,
cache policy, core arguments (like migration_threshold), etc.
Revert activated volumes if callback fails.
This is currently used only for thin_check failure support.
When thin_check detects failure in thin metadata device, it deactivate
volumes in reversed order that have been preloaded for thin pool activation.
After this change lvm command will not leave active pool subvolumes
in dm table.
Pass dnode pointer instead of rather unknown child pointer.
The pointer is currently unused and passing child pointer
is quite undefined, while dnode has at least some usability.
Add internal error warning when string value is used
as sort value for numerical field.
Using log_warn since the function itself does not return error,
so we do not confuse log_error() checker.
On modern systems udev manages nodes in /dev/mapper directory.
It creates, deletes and renames the nodes according to the
state of the kernel driver.
When the dmsetup is compiled without udev support (--enable-udev_sync)
and runs on the system with running udevd it tries to manage nodes in
/dev/mapper too, so it can race with udev.
dmsetup checks if the node was created/deleted/renamed with the stat
syscall, and skips the operation if it was. However, if udev
creates/deletes/renames the node after the stat syscall and before the
mknod/unlink/rename syscall, dmsetup reports an error.
Since in the system everything happened as expected, skip reporting
error for such case.
These races can be easily provoked by inserting sleep at appropriate
places.

Just like we have symbolic names assigned to general DM udev flags
(DM_UDEV_* flags), we have the same for any subsystem flags now
(DM_SUBSYSTEM_UDEV_FLAG*), making it easier to use.
When images and their associated metadata are removed from a RAID1 LV,
the remaining sub-LVs are "shifted" down to fill the gaps. For
example, if there is a 3-way mirror:
[0][1][2]
and we remove device#0, the devices will be shifted down
[1][2]
and renamed.
[0][1]
This can create a problem for resume_lv (specifically,
dm_tree_activate_children) during the renaming process though. This
is because it will attempt to rename the higher indexed sub-LVs first
and find that it cannot because there are currently other sub-LVs with
that name. The solution is to check for a conflicting name before
attempting to rename. If a conflict is found and that conflicting
sub-LV is also in the process of renaming, we can defer the current
rename until the conflicting sub-LV has renamed and cleared the
conflict.
Now that resume_lv can handle these types of rename conflicts, we can
remove the workaround in RAID that was attempting to resume a RAID1
LV from the bottom-up in order to force a proper rename in assending
order before attempting a resume on the top-level LV. This "hack"
only worked for single machine use-cases of LVM. Clearing this up
paves the way for exclusive activation of RAID LVs in a cluster.
Do not allow passing '' names to kernel.
This test was missing also in kernel, so it has allowed
to create device with '' name. This then confused dmsetup tool,
since such name is unexpected and unsupported. To remove
such name from table, user has to use -j -m to specify which device
should be removed.
This patch fixes the posibility to run this operation:
dmsetup rename existingdev ''
after this operation commands like 'dmsetup table' are failing.
This patch prohibits to use such name.
Recent kernels allow messages to respond with a string.
Add dm_task_get_message_response() to libdevmapper to perform some
basic sanity checks and return this.
Have 'dmsetup message' display any response.
DM statistics will make extensive use of this.

Clear send_messages flag when they have been delivered successfully.
There is no need to validate it for all other activations of the same
node in the dm_tree.
Also add extra debug message which shows the reason for skipping
sending of messages because the transaction_id has already the matching
value.
Show 'at' pointer address with pool name.
It's useful for debugging to be able to locate pointer address in the
debug trace log. It's only available when compiled with extra debug
compilation flag DEBUG_POOL in make.tmpl.
This patch adds the ability to set the minimum and maximum I/O rate for
sync operations in RAID LVs. The options are available for 'lvcreate' and
'lvchange' and are as follows:
--minrecoveryrate <Rate> [bBsSkKmMgG]
--maxrecoveryrate <Rate> [bBsSkKmMgG]
The rate is specified in size/sec/device. If a suffix is not given,
kiB/sec/device is assumed. Setting the rate to 0 removes the preference.
This patch may not be fully correct. It tries to solve
the imbalanced suspend counter.
The problem starts when some LV is created and fails in resume path.
(i.e. resuming to large PV (enforced) over small loop devices)
This fails in _resume_node() after dm_task_run(). And while
existing device with empty table is left in inactive table,
further calls are reporting this device is in suspend state.
When later the lvm2 tries to rollback created device and deactivate it,
it will end with internal error, when we try to decrement
never incremented suspend counter.
As an 'easy fix' for now update suspend counter only for live nodes.
TODO: explore better fix.
Since we use get_status also in dmeventd, which may use one pool
for a single device, in case it would be repeatedly returning error,
it may not be freeing the pool and would cause slow but steady growth.
To stay safe in the error path release any allocated memory.
To detect mounted device, use also /proc/self/mountinfo
as so far the check was only able to detect ext4 mounted filesystem.
TODO:
Once proper testing for this feature is added, it may appear,
mountinfo check is enough and covers all cases and sysfs check
could be removed.
'lvchange' is used to alter a RAID 1 logical volume's write-mostly and
write-behind characteristics. The '--writemostly' parameter takes a
PV as an argument with an optional trailing character to specify whether
to set ('y'), unset ('n'), or toggle ('t') the value. If no trailing
character is given, it will set the flag.
Synopsis:
lvchange [--writemostly <PV>:{t|y|n}] [--writebehind <count>] vg/lv
Example:
lvchange --writemostly /dev/sdb1:y --writebehind 512 vg/raid1_lv
The last character in the 'lv_attr' field is used to show whether a device
has the WriteMostly flag set. It is signified with a 'w'. If the device
has failed, the 'p'artial flag has priority.
Example ("nosync" raid1 with mismatch_cnt and writemostly):
[~]# lvs -a --segment vg
LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize
raid1 vg Rwi---r-m 2 raid1 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_0] vg Iwi---r-- 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_1] vg Iwi---r-w 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rmeta_0] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
[raid1_rmeta_1] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
Example (raid1 with mismatch_cnt, writemostly - but failed drive):
[~]# lvs -a --segment vg
LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize
raid1 vg rwi---r-p 2 raid1 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_0] vg Iwi---r-- 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_1] vg Iwi---r-p 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rmeta_0] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
[raid1_rmeta_1] vg ewi---r-p 1 linear 4.00m
A new reportable field has been added for writebehind as well. If
write-behind has not been set or the LV is not RAID1, the field will
be blank.
Example (writebehind is set):
[~]# lvs -a -o name,attr,writebehind vg
LV Attr WBehind
lv rwi-a-r-- 512
[lv_rimage_0] iwi-aor-w
[lv_rimage_1] iwi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_0] ewi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_1] ewi-aor--
Example (writebehind is not set):
[~]# lvs -a -o name,attr,writebehind vg
LV Attr WBehind
lv rwi-a-r--
[lv_rimage_0] iwi-aor-w
[lv_rimage_1] iwi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_0] ewi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_1] ewi-aor--
Revert commit 31c24dd9f2. This commit
was used to force a RAID device-mapper table to be loaded into the
kernel despite the fact that it was identical to the one already
loaded. The effect allowed a RAID array with a transiently failed
device to refresh and reintegrate the failed device. This operation
is better done in the kernel on a 'resume'. Since,
'lvchange --refresh' already performs a suspend/resume cycle, the
above commit is not needed once the kernel change is made. Reverting
the commit removes an unnecessary (at least for now) change to the
device-mapper interface.
I've updated the dm_status_raid structure and dm_get_status_raid()
function to make it handle the new kernel status fields that will
be coming in dm-raid v1.5.0. It is backwards compatible with the
old status line - initializing the new fields to '0'. The new
structure is also more amenable to future changes. It includes a
'reserved' field that is currently initialized to zero but could
be used to hold flags describing new features. It also now uses
pointers for the character strings instead of attempting to allocate
their space along with the structure (causing the size of the
structure to be variable). This allows future fields to be appended.
The new fields that are available are:
- sync_action : shows what the sync thread in the kernel is doing
(idle, frozen, resync, recover, check, repair, or
reshape)
- mismatch_count: shows the number of discrepancies which were
found or repaired by a "check" or "repair"
process, respectively.
Previous commit included changes to WHATSNEW, but the code changes
were missing. Here is the description from the previous commit:
commit bbc6378b73
Author: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com>
Date: Thu Feb 21 11:31:36 2013 -0600
RAID: Make 'lvchange --refresh' restore transiently failed RAID PVs
A new function (dm_tree_node_force_identical_table_reload) was added to
avoid the suppression of identical table reloads. This allows RAID LVs
to reload the on-disk superblock information that contains which devices
have failed and the bitmaps. If the failed device has returned, this has
the effect of restoring the device and initiating recovery. Without this
patch, the user had to completely deactivate their RAID LV and re-activate
it in order to restore the failed device. Now they simply need to
suspend and resume (which is done by 'lvchange --refresh').
The identical table suppression is only avoided if the LV is not PARTAIL
(i.e. all of it's devices can be seen and read by LVM) and the kernel
status of the array contains failed devices. In other words, the function
will only be called in the case where we may have success in restoring
a failed device in the array.
There's a possibility to interconnect the dm_config_node with an
ID, which in our case is used to reference the configuration
definition ID from config_settings.h. So simply interconnecting
struct dm_config_node with struct cfg_def_item.
This patch also adds support for enhanced config node output besides
existing "output line by line". This patch adds a possibility to
register a callback that gets called *before* the config node is
processed line by line (for example to include any headers on output)
and *after* the config node is processed line by line (to include any
footers on output). Also, it adds the config node reference itself
as the callback arg in addition to have a possibility to extract more
information from the config node itself if needed when processing the
output callback (e.g. the key name, the id, or whether this is a
section or a value etc...).
If the config node from lvm.conf/--config tree is recognized and valid,
it's always coupled with the config node definition ID from
config_settings.h:
struct dm_config_node {
int id;
const char *key;
struct dm_config_node *parent, *sib, *child;
struct dm_config_value *v;
}
For example if the dm_config_node *cn holds "devices/dev" configuration,
then the cn->id holds "devices_dev_CFG" ID from config_settings.h, -1 if
not found in config_settings.h and 0 if matching has not yet been done.
To support the enhanced config node output, a new structure has been
defined in libdevmapper to register it:
struct dm_config_node_out_spec {
dm_config_node_out_fn prefix_fn; /* called before processing config node lines */
dm_config_node_out_fn line_fn; /* called for each config node line */
dm_config_node_out_fn suffix_fn; /* called after processing config node lines */
};
Where dm_config_node_out_fn is:
typedef int (*dm_config_node_out_fn)(const struct dm_config_node *cn, const char *line, void *baton);
(so in comparison to existing callbacks for config node output, it has
an extra dm_config_node *cn arg in addition)
This patch also adds these functions to libdevmapper:
- dm_config_write_node_out
- dm_config_write_one_node_out
...which have exactly the same functionality as their counterparts
without the "out" suffix. The "*_out" functions adds the extra hooks
for enhanced config output (prefix_fn and suffix_fn mentioned above).
One can still use the old interface for config node output, this is
just an enhancement for those who'd like to modify the output more
extensively.
Export this functionality from libdevmapper just for
convenience and general use when reading boolean values
which could be defined either in a numeric way with 0/1
or by using strings with "true"/"false", "yes"/"no",
"on"/"off", "y"/"n".
When a section was empty in a configuration tree (no children - this is
allowed) and we were looking for a config node inside that section, the
_find_config_node function incorrectly returned the section itself if
the node inside that section was not found.
For example the configuration below:
The config:
abc {
}
And a function call to get the "def" node inside "abc" section:
_find_config_node(..., "abc/def")
...returned the "abc" node instead of NULL ("def" not found).
This in turn caused segfaults in the code using lookups in such
a configuration tree as we (correctly) expected that the node
returned was always the one we were looking for or NULL if not
found. But if incorrect node was returned instead, we processed
that as if this was the node we were looking for and so we
processed its value as well. But sections don't have values => segfault.
On glibc, those are erroneously (namespace pollution) pulled in via
other headers. this doesn't work with conformant libcs (musl libc in
this case), we simply need to include all needed headers.

Similar to the way thin* accesses its kernel status, we add a method
for RAID to grab the various values in its status output without the
higher levels (LVM) having to understand how to parse the output.
Added functions include:
- lib/activate/dev_manager.c:dev_manager_raid_status()
Pulls the status line from the kernel
- libdm/libdm-deptree.c:dm_get_status_raid()
Parses status line and puts components into dm_status_raid struct
- lib/activate/activate.c:lv_raid_dev_health()
Accesses dm_status_raid to deliver raid dev_health string
The new structure and functions can provide a more unified way to access
status information. ('lv_raid_percent' could switch to using these
functions, for example.)
Add log/debug_classes to lvm.conf to allow debug messages to be
classified and filtered at runtime.
The dm_errno field is only used by log_error(), so I've redefined it
for log_debug() messages to hold the message class.
By default, all existing messages appear, but we can add categories that
generate high volumes of data, such as logging all traffic to/from
lvmetad.
If the resume of preloaded node fails, do not leave such
node in the table - since it may not be easy to detach such
node later when the node is i.e. internal.
i.e. failing activation of the thin pool with mismatching
chunk size may leave -tpool device in the table, which
could have been then removed only by dmsetup command.
$ export DM_DISABLE_UDEV=1
$ dmsetup create test --table "0 1 zero"
Udev is running and DM_DISABLE_UDEV environment variable is set. Bypassing udev, device-mapper library will manage device nodes in device directory.
$ lvchange -ay vg/lvol0
Udev is running and DM_DISABLE_UDEV environment variable is set. Bypassing udev, LVM will manage logical volume symlinks in device directory.
Udev is running and DM_DISABLE_UDEV environment variable is set. Bypassing udev, LVM will obtain device list by scanning device directory.
Udev is running and DM_DISABLE_UDEV environment variable is set. Bypassing udev, device-mapper library will manage device nodes in device directory.
Setting this environment variable will cause a full fallback
to old direct node and symlink management in libdevmapper and lvm2.
It means:
- disabling udev synchronization
(--noudevsync in dmsetup and --noudevsync + activation/udev_sync=0
lvm2 config)
- disabling dm and any subsystem related udev rules
(--noudevrules in dmsetup and activation/udev_rules=0 lvm2 config)
- management of nodes/symlinks under /dev directly by libdevmapper/lvm2
(--verifyudev in dmsetup and activation/verify_udev_operations=1
lvm2 config)
- not obtaining any device list from udev database
(devices/obtain_device_list_from_udev=0 lvm2 config)
Note: we could set all of these before - there's no functional change!
However the DM_DISABLE_UDEV environment variable is a nice shortcut
to make it easier for libdevmapper users so that one can switch off all
of the udev management off at one go directly on the command line,
without a need to modify any source or add any extra switches.
cookie_set variable found in the struct dm_task should be always
set to 1 after dm_task_set_cookie_call, even if udev_sync is disabled
as the cookie itself carries synchronization informations *as well as*
extra flags to control other aspects of udev support.
For example, one could disable the synchronization itself, but still
direct the libdm code to disable library fallback via
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK flag. These extra flags still need
to be carried out!
A concrete example:
$ dmsetup create test --table "0 1 zero" --noudevsync
This disables synchronization with udev. As the --verifyudev option is
not used, we don't want to do any corrections. In other words, we
need DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK flag to be used. However,
with --noudevsync this was not the case - the flag was ignored!
This patch fixes the case when noudevsync is used but there are still
some extra flags passed within the cookie flag part. The synchronization
part of the cookie stays zero (which is ok as dm_udev_wait call on such a
cookie is simply a NOOP).
Use log_warn to print non-fatal warning messages.
Use of log_error would confuse checker for testing
whether proper error has been reported for some real error.
On each ioctl return, the device UUID is decoded from \xNN format.
If the UUID of the device being *removed* is malformed (e.g. it
hasn't been corrected before), just remove it without any error
as the UUID is not needed anymore - the device is gone anyway.
Otherwise a misleading error message would be issued just after
the removal:
# dmsetup remove test
The UUID "a b" should be mangled but it contains blacklisted characters.
Command failed
Just like we already have existing mangling support for
device-mapper names, we need exactly the same for device-mapper
UUIDs as their character whitelist is wider than what udev supports.
In case udev is used to create entries in /dev based on UUIDs
and these UUIDs contain characters not supported by udev,
we'll end up with incorrect /dev content for such devices.
So we need to mangle them to a form that is supported by udev.
The mangling used for UUIDs follows the mangling used for names
(that is already supported and used throughout). That means,
setting the name mangling mode via dm_set_name_mangling_mode
affects mangling used for UUIDs in exactly the same manner.
It would be useless to add a new and separate
dm_set_uuid_mangling_mode fn, we'll reuse existing interface.
(un)mangle_name -> (un)mangle_string
check_multiple_mangled_name_allowed -> check_multiple_mangled_string_allowed
Just for clarity as the same functions will be reused to (un)mangle dm UUIDs.
Patch clears the flag if thin pool is stacked over mirror.
Since thin pool could be used to stack device over mirrors,
it needs resume properly i.e. mirrors with corelog which are otherwise
unconditionally skipped (for pvmove functionality).
If we were defining a section (which is a node without a value) and
the value was created automatically on dm_config_create_node call,
we were wasting resources as the next step after creating the config
node itself was assigning NULL for the node's value.
The dm_config_node_create + dm_config_create_value sequence should be
used instead for settings and dm_config_node_create alone for sections.
The majority of the code already used the correct sequence. Though
with dm_config_node_create fn creating the value as well, the pool
memory was being trashed this way.
This patch removes the node value initialization on dm_config_create_node
fn call and keeps it for the direct dm_config_create_value fn call.
This patch adds support for RAID10. It is not the default at this
stage. The user needs to specify '--type raid10' if they would like
RAID10 instead of stacked mirror over stripe.

A regression introduced in 2.02.89 (11e520256b)
caused the lvm dumpconfig <node> to print out
the node as well as its subsequent siblings.
The information about "only_one" mode got lost.
Before this patch (just an example node):
# lvm dumpconfig global/use_lvmetad
use_lvmetad=1
thin_check_executable="/usr/sbin/thin_check"
thin_check_options="-q"
(...all nodes to the end of the section)
With this patch applied:
# lvm dumpconfig global/use_lvmetad
use_lvmetad=1
With latest changes in the udev, some deprecated functions were removed
from libudev amongst which there was the "udev_get_dev_path" function
we used to compare a device directory used in udev and directore set in
libdevmapper. The "/dev" is hardcoded in udev now (udev version >= 183).
Amongst other changes and from packager's point of view, it's also
important to note that the libudev development library ("libudev-devel")
could now be a part of the systemd development library ("systemd-devel")
because of the udev + systemd merge.
Auto mode can't deal with multiple mangled names. We can do that while working
in hex mode, but in auto mode, this would lead to device name ambiguity.
Be more strict when unmangling names on ioctl return - require the name to be
properly mangled in 'auto' and 'hex' mode. There really should not be any
blacklisted character since the names should be renamed already (by means of
renaming it directly or running 'dmsetup mangle' for automatic rename).
if the thin_check fail on thin pool - still return successful deactivation,
since lvremove would currently fail.
TODO: find some way to not run check with lvremove.
Add some hack math to allow 16GB devices to be passed as thinpool metadata.
Since kernel has put in limit to not allow which are just bigger then
some predefined constant in kernel but not matching 16GB so any device bigger
is rejected.
FIXME: Current code still might need more tweaks to be more generic.
Since lvm seems to call driver_version(NULL, 0) this would lead
to crash. Though the combination of the code is probably very hard to hit.
If the user doesn't supply version buffer, just skip printing to buffer.
pvcreate gives
WARNING: Ignoring unsupported value for metadata/pvmetadataignore.
It was warning if there is no config file entry instead of only if the node
exists but is empty.
Should be faster then strncpy - since we could avoid clearing 4KB pages
with each strncpy(...,PATH_MAX).
Also it's easy to check whether string fit - and eventually avoid
to continue working we incomplete string.
If we have good enough glibc to return number of needed chars, do not
loop try to reach good size, but use this size directly for allocation,
saving also last strdup.
Since now we start with 16 bytes - skip buffer realloc for shorter string.
Device-mapper in kernel uses '\' as escape character so it's better
to double it to avoid any confusion when using existing device names
with '\' in the table specification.
For example:
dmsetup create x --table "0 8 linear /dev/mapper/a\x20b 0"
should pass just fine now without a need to explicitly escape the '\' char
like this:
dmsetup create x --table "0 8 linear /dev/mapper/a\\x20b 0"
If dm_task_get_name or dm_task_get_names gets called, these will return
unmangled form of the names so the name mangling stays totally transparent
to any libdevmapper user (unless DM_STRING_MANGLING_NONE is used in which
case the name is not touched and it is is returned as it is in kernel).
For example:
dmsetup create "a b" - will create a\x20b device in kernel and so udev will
create /dev/mapper/a\x20b
dm_task_get_name/names will still return "a b"
In AUTO mode, the libdevmapper user can still query the device by using
the mangled ("a\x20b") or unmangled form of the name when calling dm_task_set_name.
If mangled name is provided, it's detected and the name is kept as it is.
If unmangled name is provided, it will be mangled. IOW in AUTO mode it's
totally transparent and it should not require any changes in the code
using libdevmapper.
However, any libdevmapper user must be aware of the fact that the mangled form
of the name appears in /dev/mapper (udev just can't deal with those blacklisted
characters).
dm_task_get_name_mangled will always return mangled form of the name while
the dm_task_get_name_unmangled will always return unmangled form of the name
irrespective of the global setting (dm_set/get_name_mangling_mode).
This is handy in situations where we need to detect whether the name is already
mangled or not. Also display functions make use of it.
Use the DEV_NAME macro to use the mangled form of the name if present,
use normal name otherwise (we store both forms - mangled and unmangled in
struct dm_task). Mangled form should be always preferred over unmangled
with the exception of the situations where we divide one task into several
others (like "create and load") - we need to avoid mangling the name twice
(because of multiple dm_task_set_name calls)!
If dm_task_set_name/newname is called, the name provided will be
automatically translated to correct encoded form with the hex enconding
so any character not on udev whitelist will be mangled with \xNN
format where NN is hex value of the character used.
By default, the name mangling mode used is the one set during
configure with the '--with-default-name-mangling' option.
This option configures the default name mangling mode used, one of:
AUTO, NONE and HEX.
The name mangling is primarily used to support udev character whitelist
(0-9, A-Z, a-z, #*-.:=@_) so any character that is not on udev whitelist
will get translated into an encoded form \xNN where NN is the hex value
of the character.
It was not possible to pass down the DM_[FORCE|NO]SYNC flags to
'dm_tree_node_add_raid_target'. This meant that converting to 'raid1' from
'mirror' would cause a full resync. (It also meant that '--nosync' was
ineffective when creating a 'raid1' LV.)
I've taken the 'reserved' parameter in 'dm_tree_node_add_raid_target' and
used it for the "flags" parameter. Now it is possible to pass the sync
flags and any other flags that may come up.
In case of zero bytes would be read from sysfs, it would store '\0' on
temp_buf[-1] address.
Simplify some buffer length calculation and use strcpy if we've just
checked string fits in give buffer.
Replace jump label error: with bad: commonly used in libdm.
Replace asserts with test for failing memory allocation.
Add at least stack traces.
Index counter starts from 1 (0 reserved for error), so replacing fingerprint.
Since the function dm_get_next_target() returns NULL as 'next' pointer
so it's not a 'real' error - set 0 to all parameters when NULL is
returned because of missing head.
i.e. one of use case::
do {
next = dm_get_next_target(dmt, next, &start, &length,
&target_type, ¶ms);
size += length;
} while (next);
Using PRELOAD part would lead to problems when the problem
would happen before vg_write and vg_commit.
Also this change is necessary for snapshot creation sequence.
This is accomplished by reading associated sysfs information. For a dm device,
this is /sys/dev/block/major:minor/dm/name (supported in kernel version >= 2.6.29,
for older kernels, the behaviour is the same as for non-dm devices).
For a non-dm device, this is a readlink on /sys/dev/block/major:minor, e.g.
/sys/dev/block/253:0 --> ../../devices/virtual/block/dm-0.
The last component of the path is a proper kernel name (block device name).
One can request to read only kernel names by setting the 'prefer_kernel_name'
argument if needed.
LVM- prefix.
Try harder not to leave stray empty devices around (locally or remotely) when
reverting changes after failures while there are inactive tables.
If we know major:minor number of device (which is known after resume) we will
try to use sysfs to set/get read ahead parameters of device.
This avoid potential problem of blocking commands like 'dmsetup info' awaiting
for device being usable for open/close - i.e. overfilled thin pool may block
such command.
Add dm_get_status_thin_pool and dm_get_status_thin functions to
parse 'params' argument which is received via dm_get_next_target.
Returns filed structure allocated from given mempool.
RAID is not like traditional LVM mirroring. LVM mirroring required failed
devices to be removed or the logical volume would simply hang. RAID arrays can
keep on running with failed devices. In fact, for RAID types other than RAID1,
removing a device would mean substituting an error target or converting to a
lower level RAID (e.g. RAID6 -> RAID5, or RAID4/5 to RAID0). Therefore, rather
than removing a failed device unconditionally and potentially allocating a
replacement, RAID allows the user to "replace" a device with a new one. This
approach is a 1-step solution vs the current 2-step solution.
example> lvconvert --replace <dev_to_remove> vg/lv [possible_replacement_PVs]
'--replace' can be specified more than once.
example> lvconvert --replace /dev/sdb1 --replace /dev/sdc1 vg/lv
Avoid creation of target type name when it's longer then
DM_MAX_TYPE_NAME (noticed by static analyzer where the
sp.target_type might be missing '\0' at the end.)

Remove DM_THIN_ERROR_DEVICE_ID from API.
Remove API warning.
Drop code that was using DM_THIN_ERROR_DEVICE_ID (already commented)
Remove debug message which slipped in through some previous commit.
A little code shuffling and adding support for
DM_THIN_ERROR_DEVICE_ID which might be eventually be used
for activation of thin which is going to be deleted.
For now we do not need it lvm.
Add a new node flag send_messages that is used to simplify
test when to call _node_send_messages().
Add call to _node_send_messages when pool is deeper in the tree.
There should be no need for retry for our internal devices - it would be hinding
our own bug in the tree processing.
Update error messages to show also also device name.
No WHATS_NEW - in release fix.
When DEBUG_MEM is used, the memory is trashed with extra pattern before real
free() is called, and as this memory was marked as non accessible when used with
valgrind, make it again usable.
