Never return unfinished toolcontext - since error path is hit on
various stages of initialization we cannot leave it partially uninitialized,
since we would need to spread many more test across the code for config_valid.
Instead return NULL and properly release udev library resources as well.
label_exit() is called destroy_toolcontext() and we are now
using standard dm_list function for destroy, we have to make sure
dm_list gets initialized properly.
LVM- prefix.
Try harder not to leave stray empty devices around (locally or remotely) when
reverting changes after failures while there are inactive tables.
LVM metadata knows only of striped segments - not linear ones.
The activation code detects segments with a single stripe and switches
them to use the linear target.
If the new lvm.conf setting is set to 0 (e.g. in a test script), this
'optimisation' is turned off.
Use static buffer instead of stack allocated buffer.
This reduces stack size usage of lvm tool and the
change is very simple.
Since the whole library is not thread safe - it should not
add any new problems - and if there will be some conversion
it's easy to convert this to use some preallocated buffer.
Add filter which tries to check if scanned device is part
of active multipath.
Firstly, only SCSI major number devices are handled in filter.
Then it checks if device has exactly one holder (in sysfs) and
if it is device-mapper device and DM-UUID is prefixed by "MPATH-".
If so, this device is filtered out.
The whole filter can be switched off by setting
mpath_component_detection in lvm.conf.

Properly detect if the filters were refreshed properly.
(May needs few more fixes ??)
Filter refresh may fail because it may be out of free file descriptors
when clvmd gets overloaded.
Before, we used to display "Can't remove open logical volume" which was
generic. There 3 possibilities of how a device could be opened:
- used by another device
- having a filesystem on that device which is mounted
- opened directly by an application
With the help of sysfs info, we can distinguish the first two situations.
The third one will be subject to "remove retry" logic - if it's opened
quickly (e.g. a parallel scan from within a udev rule run), this will
finish quickly and we can remove it once it has finished. If it's a
legitimate application that keeps the device opened, we'll do our best
to remove the device, but we will fail finally after a few retries.
Makes dumpconfig whole-section output wrong in a different way from before,
but we should be able to merge cft_cmdline properly into cmd->cft now and
remove cascade.
leaving behind the LVM-specific parts of the code (convenience wrappers that
handle `struct device` and `struct cmd_context`, basically). A number of
functions have been renamed (in addition to getting a dm_ prefix) -- namely,
all of the config interface now has a dm_config_ prefix.
Add config option to enable crc checking of VG structures.
Currently it's disabled by default.
For the internal test-suite this check it is enabled.
Note: In the case the internal error is detected, debug build with
compile option DEBUG_ENFORCE_POOL_LOCKING helps to catch the source
of the problem.
Implementation described in doc/lvm2-raid.txt.
Basic support includes:
- ability to create RAID 1/4/5/6 arrays
- ability to delete RAID arrays
- ability to display RAID arrays
Notable missing features (not included in this patch):
- ability to clean-up/repair failures
- ability to convert RAID segment types
- ability to monitor RAID segment types
We've used udev fallback code till now to check whether udev
created/removed the entries in /dev correctly and if not,
a repair was done (giving a warning messagea about that).
This patch adds a possibility to enable this additional check
and subsequent fallback only when required (debugging purposes
mostly) and trust udev completely.
So let's disable the fallback code by default and add a new
configuration option "activation/udev_fallback".
(The original code for creating the nodes will still be used
in case the device directory that is set in lvm.conf differs
from the one that udev uses and also when activation/udev_rules
is set to 0 - otherwise we would end up with no nodes/symlinks
at all)
allocates these buffers in such way it adds memory page for each such buffer
and size of unlock memory check will mismatch by 1 or 2 pages.
This happens when we print or read lines without '\n' so these buffers are
used. To avoid this extra allocation, use setvbuf to set these bufffers ahead.

Also, add a new 'obtain_device_list_from_udev' setting to lvm.conf with which
we can turn this feature on or off if needed.
If set, the cache of block device nodes with all associated symlinks
will be constructed out of the existing udev database content.
This avoids using and opening any inapplicable non-block devices or
subdirectories found in the device directory. This setting is applied
to udev-managed device directory only, other directories will be scanned
fully. LVM2 needs to be compiled with udev support for this setting to
take effect. N.B. Any device node or symlink not managed by udev in
udev directory will be ignored with this setting on.
Add configurable option to define minimal size of
of block device usable as a PV.
pv_min_size() is added to lvm-globals and it's being
initialized through _process_config.
Macro PV_MIN_SIZE is unused and removed.
New define DEFAULT_PV_MIN_SIZE_KB is added to lvm-global
and unlike PV_MIN_SIZE it uses KB units.
Should help users with various slow devices attached to the system,
which cannot be easily filtered out (like FDD on /dev/sdX):

If some allocation for peristent filter fails its memory reference
was lost, fix it by calling filter's destructor.
Fix log_error messages for failing allocation.
To have better control were the config tree could be modified use more
const pointers and very carefully downcast them back to non-const
(for config tree merge).
Set cmd->independent_metadata_areas if metadata/dirs or disk_areas in use.
- Identify and record this state.
Don't skip full scan when independent mdas are present even if memlock is set.
- Clusters and OOM aren't supported, so no problem doing the proper scans.
Avoid revalidating the label cache immediately after scanning.
- A simple optimisation.
Support scanning for a single VG in independent mdas.
- Not used by the fix but I left it in anyway as later patches might use it.
