Avoid starting conversion of the LV to the thin pool and thin volume
at the same time. Since this is mostly a user mistake, do not try
to just convert to one of those type, since we cannot assume if the
user wanted LV to become thin volume or thin pool.
Before the fix tool reported pretty strange internal error:
Internal error: Referenced LV lvol1_tdata not listed in VG mvg.
Fixed output:
lvconvert --thinpool lvol0 -T mvg/lvol0
Can't use same LV mvg/lvol0 for thin pool and thin volume.
In preparation for other segment types that create and use "pools", we
s/create_thin_pool/create_pool/. This way it is not awkward when creating
a cachepool, for example, to use "create_thin_pool".
Several fields used to display 0 if undefined. Recent changes
to the way the fields are reported threw away some tests for
valid pointers, leading to segfaults with 'pvs -o all'.
Reinstate the original behaviour.
Boolean algebra changes for process_each_lv_in_vg().
1st.
Drop process_lv variable since it's not needed.
2nd.
process_lv was always initilized to 0 - so the condition was always true.
It the condition (!tags_supplied && !lvargs_supplied) evaluates as "true",
process_all is already set to 1, so skip vg tags evaluation.
3rd.
Move check for matching lv name in the front of lv tags check
since this check can't be skipped for lvargs_matched counter.
If this filter evaluates to true, skip lv tags evaluation.
Since activation takes only read-lock, there could be
multiple activation running in parallel.
So instead of checking before taking any real lock,
let the locking resolve the problem and just
detect if the reason for failure has been remote
exlusive activation.
It should be also faster, since each activation does
not need to do explicit lock query.
For merging thin snapshot we have to do couple extra
checks before we allow this operation.
We pretend thin-snapshot and thin-origin
are tied together and we have to properly
maintain locking.
At the end of lvconvert --snapshot with an active origin, the origin
gets reloaded.
Commit 57c0f72b1d ("lvconvert: use
_reload_lv on more places") accidentally replaced this with a snapshot
LV reload (which does nothing because only the origin is active).
Replacement of pv_read by find_pv_by_name in commit
651d5093ed caused spurious

Optimize and cleanup recently introduced new function wipe_lv.
Use compound literals to get nicely initialized wipe_params struct.
Pass in lv as explicit argument for wipe_lv.
Use cmd from lv structure.
Initialize only non-null members so it's easy to see what
is the special arg.
Drop find_merging_snapshot() function. Use find_snapshot()
called after check for lv_is_merging_origin() which
is the commonly used code path - so we avoid duplicated
tests and potential risk of derefering NULL point
in unhandled error path.
Use common wipe_lv (former set_lv) fn to do zeroing as well as signature
wiping if needed. Provide new struct wipe_lv_params to define the
functionality.
Bind "lvcreate -W/--wipesignatures y" with proper wipe_lv call.
Also, add "yes" and "force" to lvcreate_params so it's possible
to apply them for the prompt: "WARNING: %s detected on %s. Wipe it? [y/n]".
If the refresh fails for any reason before autoactivation, let's not
make this a stopper for autoactivation itself - just log the error
message if it appears.
The reason is that in some rare situations, we can still hit the
problem with the suspend call to fail (as already described in
commit d8085edf65, also
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1027314). The refresh
itself is done for only one reason - to refresh any dm tables
for LVs for which the underlying PVs got unplugged/disconnected
and then plugged/connected back (see also
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=954061 for more info).
In this case, the major:minor pair is changed and we need to
update dm tables for LVs accordingly.
Now if refresh fails, the error is still logged, but autoactivation
continues.
If using lv/vgchange --sysinit -aay and lvmetad is enabled, we'd like to
avoid the direct activation and rely on autoactivation instead so
it fits system initialization scripts.
But if we're calling lv/vgchange --sysinit -aay too early when even
lvmetad service is not started yet, we just need to do the direct
activation instead without printing any error messages (while
trying to connect to lvmetad and not finding its socket).
This patch adds two helper functions - "lvmetad_socket_present" and
"lvmetad_used" which can be used to check for this condition properly
and avoid these lvmetad connections when the socket is not present
(and hence lvmetad is not yet running).
Whole struct will be set to 0, just
if the first member is array, gcc gives warning
we should initialized this element as array,
so pick any later simple type.
Revert 4777eb6872 which put
target_present check into init_snapshot_merge(). However
this function is also used when parsing metadata. So we would
get this present test performed even when target is not really
needed. So move this target_present test directly into lvconvert.
Add a PV create which takes a paramters object that
has get/set method to configure PV creation.
Current get/set operations include:
- size
- pvmetadatacopies
- pvmetadatasize
- data_alignment
- data_alignment_offset
- zero

Only reading a single PV works correctly only in very limited circumstances.
Moreover, we can't rely on the MDA available on the PV either, since it may be
out of date in some circumstances (until now, we believed that PVs that have an
empty MDA are always orphans, but this is not 100% reliable either).
There's a tiny race when suspending the device which is part
of the refresh because when suspend ioctl is performed, the
dm kernel driver executes (do_suspend and dm_suspend kernel fn):
step 1: a check whether the dev is already suspended and
if yes it returns success immediately as there's
nothing to do
step 2: it grabs the suspend lock
step 3: another check whether the dev is already suspended
and if found suspended, it exits with -EINVAL now
The race can occur in between step 1 and step 2. To prevent
premature autoactivation failure, we're using a simple retry
logic here before we fail completely. For a complete solution,
we need to fix the locking so there's no possibility for suspend
calls to interleave each other to cause this kind of race.
This is just a workaround. Remove it and replace it with proper
locking once we have that in!
Send error message on stdout, since after _display_info_long()
command return errors.
Patch makes consistent behavior for command:
dmsetup info -c non-existing-dev
&
dmsetup info non-existing-dev
Now both commands report error on stderr when they return error status
for non-existing device.
This is an addition to original patch for lvcreate - commit 039bdad.
The same principle applies to lvconvert where there are several steps
during which we need to wipe the existing LV that's being converted
to thin pool, making sure there's no other interference from outside (udev).
Remove conditional that boils down to "if yes or no, then do". The
previous condition in the statement is sufficient and the extra
(always true) condition is unnecessary.
Before, pvscan recognized either:
pvscan --cache --major <major> --minor <minor>
or
pvscan --cache <DevicePath>
When the device is gone and we need to notify lvmetad about device
removal, only --major/--minor works as we can't translate DevicePath
into major/minor pair anymore. The device does not exist in the system
and we don't keep DevicePath index in lvmetad cache to make the
translation internally into original major/minor pair. It would be
useless to keep this index just for this one exact case.
There's nothing bad about using "--major <major> --minor <minor>",
but it makes our life a bit harder when trying to make an
interconnection with systemd units, mainly with instantiated services
where only one and only one arg can be passed (which is encoded in the
service name).
This patch tries to make this easier by adding support for recognizing
the "<major>:<minor>" as a shortcut for the longer form
"--major <major> --minor <minor>". The rule here is simple: if the argument
starts with "/", it's a DevicePath, otherwise it's a <major>:<minor> pair.
Prohibit conversion of pool device with active thin volumes.
Properly restore active states only for active thin pool volume.
Use new LV_NOSCAN when converting volume into thin pool's metadata.

1) When converting from an x-way mirror/raid1 to a y-way mirror/raid1,
the default behaviour should be to stay the same segment type.
2) When converting from linear to mirror or raid1, the default behaviour
should honor the mirror_segtype_default.
3) When converting and the '--type' argument is specified, the '--type'
argument should be honored.
catch such conditions, but errors in the tests caused the issue to go
unnoticed. The code has been fixed to perform #2 properly, the tests
have been corrected to properly test for #2, and a few other tests
were changed to explicitly specify the '--type mirror' when necessary.

The same corner cases that exist for snapshots on mirrors exist for
any logical volume layered on top of mirror. (One example is when
a mirror image fails and a non-repair LVM command is the first to
detect it via label reading. In this case, the LVM command will hang
and prevent the necessary LVM repair command from running.) When
a better alternative exists, it makes no sense to allow a new target
to stack on mirrors as a new feature. Since, RAID is now capable of
running EX in a cluster and thin is not active-active aware, it makes
sense to pair these two rather than mirror+thinpool.
As further background, here are some additional comments that I made
when addressing a bug related to mirror+thinpool:
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=919604#c9)
I am going to disallow thin* on top of mirror logical volumes.
Users will have to use the "raid1" segment type if they want this.
This bug has come down to a choice between:
1) Disallowing thin-LVs from being used as PVs.
2) Disallowing thinpools on top of mirrors.
The problem is that the code in dev_manager.c:device_is_usable() is unable
to tell whether there is a mirror device lower in the stack from the device
being checked. Pretty much anything layered on top of a mirror will suffer
from this problem. (Snapshots are a good example of this; and option #1
above has been chosen to deal with them. This can also be seen in
dev_manager.c:device_is_usable().) When a mirror failure occurs, the
kernel blocks all I/O to it. If there is an LVM command that comes along
to do the repair (or a different operation that requires label reading), it
would normally avoid the mirror when it sees that it is blocked. However,
if there is a snapshot or a thin-LV that is on a mirror, the above code
will not detect the mirror underneath and will issue label reading I/O.
This causes the command to hang.
Choosing #1 would mean that thin-LVs could never be used as PVs - even if
they are stacked on something other than mirrors.
Choosing #2 means that thinpools can never be placed on mirrors. This is
probably better than we think, since it is preferred that people use the
"raid1" segment type in the first place. However, RAID* cannot currently
be used in a cluster volume group - even in EX-only mode. Thus, a complete
solution for option #2 must include the ability to activate RAID logical
volumes (and perform RAID operations) in a cluster volume group. I've
already begun working on this.
Creation, deletion, [de]activation, repair, conversion, scrubbing
and changing operations are all now available for RAID LVs in a
cluster - provided that they are activated exclusively.
The code has been changed to ensure that no LV or sub-LV activation
is attempted cluster-wide. This includes the often overlooked
operations of activating metadata areas for the brief time it takes
to clear them. Additionally, some 'resume_lv' operations were
replaced with 'activate_lv_excl_local' when sub-LVs were promoted
to top-level LVs for removal, clearing or extraction. This was
necessary because it forces the appropriate renaming actions the
occur via resume in the single-machine case, but won't happen in
a cluster due to the necessity of acquiring a lock first.
The *raid* tests have been updated to allow testing in a cluster.
For the most part, this meant creating devices with '-aey' if they
were to be converted to RAID. (RAID requires the converting LV to
be EX because it is a condition of activation for the RAID LV in
a cluster.)
Udev daemon has recently introduced a limit on the number of udev
processes (there was no limit before). This causes a problem
when calling pvscan --cache -aay in lvmetad udev rules which
is supposed to activate the volumes. This activation is itself
synced with udev and so it waits for the activation to complete
before the pvscan finishes. The event processing can't continue
until this pvscan call is finished.
But if we're at the limit with the udev process count, we can't
instatiate any more udev processes, all such events are queued
and so we can't process the lvm activation event for which the
pvscan is waiting.
Then we're in a deadlock since the udev process with the
pvscan --cache -aay call waits for the lvm activation udev
processing to complete, but that will never happen as there's
this limit hit with the number of udev processes.
The process with pvscan --cache -aay actually times out eventually
(3min or 30sec, depends on the version of udev).
This patch makes it possible to run the pvscan --cache -aay
in the background so the udev processing can continue and hence
we can avoid the deadlock mentioned above.
The commit 82d83a01ce
"autoactivation: refresh existing VG before autoactivation"
causes problems (dangling udev_sync cookies, slow processing
of the pvscan --cache --major --minor call from udev rules)
when the autoactivation handler is run in parallel on
several PVs that belong to the same VG. Revert this patch
until the exact source of the problem is found and then
properly fixed and handled.
The patch allows the user to also pvmove snapshots and origin logical
volumes. This means pvmove should be able to move all segment types.
I have, however, disallowed moving converting or merging logical volumes.
Top-level LVs (like RAID, mirror or thin) are ignored when determining which
portions of an LV to pvmove. If the user specified the name of an LV to
move and it was one of the above types, it would be skipped. The code would
never move on to check whether its sub-LVs needed moving because their names
did not match what the user specified.
The solution is to check whether a sub-LVs is part of the LV whose name was
specified by the user - not just if there was a name match.
This patch allows pvmove to operate on RAID, mirror and thin LVs.
The key component is the ability to avoid moving a RAID or mirror
sub-LV onto a PV that already has another RAID sub-LV on it.
(e.g. Avoid placing both images of a RAID1 LV on the same PV.)
Top-level LVs are processed to determine which PVs to avoid for
the sake of redundancy, while bottom-level LVs are processed
to determine which segments/extents to move.
This approach does have some drawbacks. By eliminating whole PVs
from the allocation list, we might miss the opportunity to perform
pvmove in some senarios. For example, if we have 3 devices and
a linear uses half of the first, a RAID1 uses half of the first and
half of the second, and a linear uses half of the third (FIGURE 1);
we should be able to pvmove the first device (FIGURE 2).
FIGURE 1:
[ linear ] [ -RAID- ] [ linear ]
[ -RAID- ] [ ] [ ]
FIGURE 2:
[ moved ] [ -RAID- ] [ linear ]
[ moved ] [ linear ] [ -RAID- ]
However, the approach we are using would eliminate the second
device from consideration and would leave us with too little space
for allocation. In these situations, the user does have the ability
to specify LVs and move them one at a time.
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.
(From Mikulas.)
When autoactivating a VG, there could be an existing VG with exactly
the same PV UUIDs. The PVs could be reappeared after previous
loss/disconnect (for example disconnecting and reconnecting iscsi).
Since there's no "autodeactivation" yet, the mappings for the LVs
from the VG were left in the system even if the device was disconnected.
These mappings also hold the major:minor of the underlying device.
So if the device reappears, it is assigned a different major:minor
pair (...and kernel name). We need to cope with this during
autoactivation so any existing mappings are corrected for any changes.
The VG refresh does that (the vgchange --refresh functionality) -
call this before VG autoactivation.
(If the VG does not exist yet, the VG refresh is NOP)
Split out the partitioned device filter that needs to open the device
and move the multipath filter in front of it.
When a device is multipathed, sending I/O to the underlying paths may
cause problems, the most obvious being I/O errors visible to lvm if a
path is down.
Revert the incorrect <backtrace> messages added when a device doesn't
pass a filter.
Log each filter initialisation to show sequence.
Avoid duplicate 'Using $device' debug messages.
