Copy another optimization from pvscan -aay to vgchange -aay.
When using the optimized label scan for only one VG, acquire the
VG lock prior to the scan. This allows vg_read to then skip the
repeated label scan that normally happens after locking the vg.
Include the device name in the /run/lvm/pvs_online/pvid files.
Commands using the pvid file can use the devname to more quickly
find the correct device, vs finding the device using the
major:minor number. If the devname in the pvid file is missing
or incorrect, fall back to using the devno.
For completeness and consistency, adjust the behavior
for some variations of:
vgchange -aay --autoactivation event [vgname]
The current standard use is with a VG name arg, and the
command is only called when all pvs_online files exist.
This is the optimal case, in which only pvs_online devs
are read. This remains the same.
Clean up behaviors for some other unexpected uses of the
command:
. With no VG name arg, the command activates any VGs
that are complete according to pvs_online. If no
pvs_online files exist, it does nothing.
. If a VG name is used but no PVs online files exist for
the VG, or the PVs online files are incomplete, then
consider there could be a problem with the pvs_online
files, and fall back to a full label scan prior to
attempting the activation.
Part of the optimization to avoid a full dev_cache_scan requires
translating major:minor numbers to a device name. If this devno
translation fails, then fall back to doing a full dev_cache_scan
which is slower but certain to provide the info. This preserves
the most important part of the label scanning optimization in the
vgchange aay (avoiding dev_cache_scan is a relatively small part
of the optimized activation compared to label scanning.)
Port another optimization from pvscan -aay to vgchange -aay:
"pvscan: only add device args to dev cache"
This optimization avoids doing a full dev_cache_scan, and
instead populates dev-cache with only the devices in the
VG being activated.
This involves shifting the use of pvs_online files from
the hints interface up to the higher level label_scan
interface. This specialized label_scan is structured
around creating a list of devices from the pvs_online
files. Previously, a list of all devices was created
first, and then reduced based on the pvs_online files.
The initial step of listing all devices was slow when
thousands of devices are present on the system.
This optimization extends the previous optimization that
used pvs_online files to limit the devices that were
actually scanned (i.e. reading to identify the device):
"vgchange -aay: optimize device scan using pvs_online files"
The information in /run/lvm/pvs_online/<pvid> files can
be used to build a list of devices for a given VG.
The pvscan -aay command has long used this information to
activate a VG while scanning only devices in that VG, which
is an important optimization for autoactivation.
This patch implements the same thing through the existing
device hints interface, so that the optimization can be
applied elsewhere. A future patch will take advantage of
this optimization in vgchange -aay, which is now used in
place of pvscan -aay for event activation.
When a device id is set for a device, using an idtype other
than devname, it means that sysfs has been used with the device
to match the device id. So, checking for a sysfs entry for the
device in filter-sysfs is redundant. For any other cases not
covered by this (e.g. devname ids), have filter-sysfs simply
stat /sys/dev/block/major:minor to test if the device exists
in sysfs.
The extensive processing done by filter-sysfs init is removed.
It was taking an immense amount of time with many devices, e.g.
. 1024 PVs in 520 VGs
. 520 concurrent vgchange -ay <vgname> commands
. vgchange scans only PVs in the named VG (based on pvs_online
files from a pending patch)
A large number of the vgchange commands were taking over 1 min,
and nearly half of that time was used by filter-sysfs init.
With this patch, the vgchange commands take about half the time.
When scanning configured /dev dir, avoid entring
directories with different filesystem.
This minimizes risk we will block on i.e. entring
directory with mount point.
Resolve event_activation configure option just once.
Do not print debug_devs about 'bad' filtering, when
actually filter already printed reason for skipping
Do not trace more then once about backup being disabled.
No debug when unlinked file does not exists in pvscan.
Reporting non-PVs / "all devices" is only done by
pvs -a or pvdisplay -a, so avoid the work managing
a list of all devices in process_each_pv.
In the case when it's needed, use the results of
label_scan which already determines which devs
are not PVs.
Just setting lvm.conf level=N should not send messages to
syslog (now the journal by default.)
Sending messages to syslog should require setting lvm.conf
log { syslog=1 level=N }.
Configure via lvm.conf log/journal or command line --journal.
Possible values:
"command" records command information.
"output" records default command output.
"debug" records full command debugging.
Multiple values can be set in lvm.conf as an array.
One value can be set in --journal which is added to
values set in lvm.conf
pvscan --cache <dev>
. read only dev
. create online file for dev
pvscan --listvg <dev>
. read only dev
. list VG using dev
pvscan --listlvs <dev>
. read only dev
. list VG using dev
. list LVs using dev
pvscan --cache --listvg [--checkcomplete] <dev>
. read only dev
. create online file for dev
. list VG using dev
. [check online files and report if VG is complete]
pvscan --cache --listlvs [--checkcomplete] <dev>
. read only dev
. create online file for dev
. list VG using dev
. list LVs using dev
. [check online files and report if VG is complete]
. [check online files and report if LVs are complete]
[--vgonline]
can be used with --checkcomplete, to enable use of a vg online
file. This results in only the first pvscan command to see
the complete VG to report 'VG complete', and others will report
'VG finished'. This allows the caller to easily run a single
activation of the VG.
[--udevoutput]
can be used with --cache --listvg --checkcomplete, to enable
an output mode that prints LVM_VG_NAME_COMPLETE='vgname' that
a udev rule can import, and prevents other output from the
command (other output causes udev to ignore the command.)
The list of complete LVs is meant to be passed to lvchange -aay,
or the complete VG used with vgchange -aay.
When --checkcomplete is used, lvm assumes that that the output
will be used to trigger event-based autoactivation, so the pvscan
does nothing if event_activation=0 and --checkcomplete is used.

The new system_id_source="appmachineid" will cause
lvm to use an lvm-specific derivation of the machine-id,
instead of the machine-id directly. This is now
recommended in place of using machineid.
Do not store full path with each archived name reduces memory usage if
the directory has thousands of entries and just add 'dir' path when
needed.
Also emit info print message to a user if the total size of archived
files for a VG is more then 128MiB or 8192 files.
TODO: Consider wheather adding a new 'lvm.conf archive{option}' to support
trimming these wild archive sizes can make situation better.
We already support retain_min && retain_days - but if user is
generating too many and too large archives with minutes - maybe archiving
should be disabled by a user - as it's not producing anything largely usable
and just slows-down command ??
If we add 'retain_max & retain_max_size' the condition will go against
each other and we need to chose priorities.

Consider missing config tree from vg read to be an internal error
since we do not want to 'regenerate' this one in expesive parsing way.
Also if there is any failure on recreating committed VG, make it also
a 'vg_write' error.
Corrupt metadata text (with good mda header) was being handled
in the label_scan phase, but not in the vg_read phase. This
was sufficient because metadata areas would always be read and
checksummed during label_scan (metadata parsing was skipped
previously as an optimization.)
This changed with the optimization in
commit 61a6f9905e
"metadata: optimize reading metadata copies in scan"
Now, some metadata areas will not be read and checksummed
at all during the label_scan phase, only during the vg_read
phase. This means that bad metadata text may first be detected
in the vg_read phase. So, add equivalent bad metadata handling
to the vg_read path to match the label_scan path.
While being in lockless scanning phase, we can avoid reading and checking
matching metadata copies if we already know them from other PV
and just rely on matching metadata header information.
These copies will be examined later during locked metadata read/write
access.
This patch may postpone discovering some read failures to locked phase.
When creating lvm2 metadata for VG, lvm2 allocate some buffer,
and if buffer is not big enough, the buffer is 'reallocated' bigger,
and whole metadata creation is repeated until metadata fits.
We can try to use 'previous' metadata size as hint to reduce looping
here.
Preserve computed crc32 check from first written PV, just like we
preserve generated metadata.
Also there is no need to call crc32 twice on wrapping buffer with 2 calcs,
result must be always the same as with single crc32 checking.
sysconf() may also return -1 although rather theoretically.
Default to 4K when such case would happen.
Also in function call it just once and keep as static variable.
Ensure only nonNULL 'du' pointer is dereference altough the comment
to the last assign 'du' pointer already suggest 'NULL' case should not happen.
So just being explicit.

Error path in _lockd_retrive_vg_pv_list() has not zeroed released path
caussing possible double-free later in the code.
Fix it by using one single function freeing lock_pvs structure.
When cache creation fails on table reload path, implemen more
advanced revert solution, that tries to restore state of LVM
metadata into is look before actual caching started.
Loading invalid MQ/SMQ policy settings table line cause immediate
rejection - to prevent such failure, automatically filter valid
settins before it is being uploaded by lvm2.
For invalid setting issue a warnning informing user how to remove
them.
This solution is used to keep running cached LVs that might had
been created in the past with invalid settings that have been actually
unused due to another code bug.
New versions of kvdo module exposes statistics at new location:
/sys/block/dm-XXX/vdo/statistics/...
Enhance lvm2 to access this location first.
Also if the statistic info is missing - make it 'debug' level info,
so it is not failing 'lvs' command.
Since VDO is always returns 'zero' on unprovisioned read
and every provisioned block is always 'zeroed' on partial writes,
we can avoid 'zeroing' of such LVs.
Some device id types can only be used with specific device major
numbers, so use this restriction to avoid some comparisions.
This is more efficient, and can avoid some incorrect matches.
