When showing sizes with 'H|human' units we do use standard rounding.
This however is confusing users from time to time,
when the printed number uses some biger units i.e. GiB and there is just
tiny fraction of space missing.
So here is some real-life example with new 'r' unit.
$lvs
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin
lvol0 vg -wi-a----- 1.99g
lvol1 vg -wi-a----- <2.00g
lvol2 vg -wi-a----- <2.01g
Meaning is - lvol1 has 'slightly' less then 2.00g - from sign '<' user
can be aware the LV doesn't have full 2.00GiB in size so he
will be less surpriced allocation of 2G volume will not succeed.
$ vgs
VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree
vg 2 2 0 wz--n- <6,00g <2,01g
For uses needing 'old' undecorated human unit simply will continue
to use 'H|h' units.
The new R|r may further change when we would recongnize some
other way how to improve readability.
The blkdeactivate script processes MD devices too so we should unmount
any mount point on top of an MD device if blkdeactivate -u|--umount is
called.

During rework of resize code this validation check
has been lost (in my resize branch). Upstream
is still not supporting resize of any cache type LV
so needs to be prevented.
When we need to clear dirty cache content of cached LV, there
is table reload which usually is shortly followed by next metadata
change. However udev can't (as of now) process udev event
while device is 'suspended'.
So whenever sequence of 'suspend/resume/suspend' is needed,
we need to wait first for finishing of 'resume' processing before
starting next 'suspend'. Otherwise there is 'race' danger of triggering
unwantend umount by systemd as such event will trigger
SYSTEMD_READY=0 state for a moment for such changed device.
Such race is pretty ugly to trace so we may need to review more
sequencies for missing 'sync'.
(Other option is to enhnace 'udev' rules processing to avoid
such dramatic actions to be happening for suspended devices).
Solves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1280496
The only reasonable behaviour here is to error on
any number out of accepted range (i.e. now numbers
wrapping around with some hidden logic).
As this is plain bug there is no support for
backward compatibility since noone should
set numbers >UINT32_MAX and expect 0 or error
depending on how big number was used....
TODO: more fields might need to be converted.
When there is 'merging' of an origin in progress, but metadata stil
do provide both origin and snapshot, we should show data from merged
snapshot. This is important mainly for thin case, where there was
a window, where i.e. 'lvs -o+device_id' would report information
about 'already gone' origin thin LV.
This race window is usually hard to trigger but can be ocasionally hit.
Usually shortly after activation, but before polling process manages
to update metadata after merge.
Before starting polling process, validate the merge has actually started
so there is not pointless invoke of lvmpolld.
This also fixes reported message from command, so user has
correct info whether merging has already started or
if it's delayed for next activation.
Move individual segment validation to a separate function
executed for 'complete_vg'.
Move some 'extra' validation bits from 'raid' validation to global
segtype validation (so extending existing normal validation)
TODO: still some test are left to be moved.
Reduce some duplication in validation process - there are still
some left thought so still room for improving overal speed.
We can't keep 'display_lvname' for too long - it's using
ringbuffer and keeps limited number of names. So it's
safe only per few simple tests, but can't be used anymore
after some function calls..
(Fixes 00e641ef37)
When command calls backup() more then once (which is actually not
wanted) this warning message is shown repeatedly:
"WARNING: This metadata update is NOT backed up."
Instead now print message just once and less confuse user.
Add this functionality to lvconvert:
'lvconvert --thin cachedLV --thinpool vg/poll'
Converts cachedLV to external origin (which will be read-only).
New thin volume is created in thinpool LV and it's using external
origin as source for unprovisioned chunks.
This conversion happens online (while volume is in use).
Thin LV remains fully writable.
Cached external origin no longer could be written so cache will be used
ONLY for read operations. For this limitation we require cache mode
to be writethrough (as writeback cannot write to read-only volumes).
When thinLV is later removed cached external origin is again
fully usable, just note, LV remain in 'read-only' mode.
When read-write is needed, 'lvchange -prw' has to be used.
Single external origin could be user by multiple thinLV in
multiple differen thin pool.
When cache volume may be converted from normal to -real layer LV
we need to improve logic for call cache_check.
With this patch, we register call for cache_check only when metadata LV
is not yet present in active table slot (should match initial table
load).
This avoids unwanted checking when cache would become layer device
online.
External origin could be reloaded via more locks.
It's actually even more complex then thin-pool,
as it may be active on more nodes for linear LVs
(and maybe even more types).
External origin is always read-only thus unmodifiable
device so there should not be a problem accesing it
through multiple nodes.
Also for thin-pool check first presence of active thin-pool.
FIXME:
It's not easy to detect on which nodes this device is active
Thus manipulation with such device may require checking every
node and it active state and refresh.
But since such setup is quite complex to prepare and use,
hopefully there are not user trying to 'explore' this usage yet.
To be ready to show status of cache volume, call the status
with layer. Layer is automatically detected in this case when
cache volume is used in 'layered' form (needs -real suffix).
Avoid printing misleading message about single dirty block.
Instead properly detect condition where the 'cleaner' policy
needs to be installed without 'overloading' dirty variable.
Also print warning if we would be clearing read-only volume.
(it really shouldn't happen).
External origin could be activated as stand-alone device.
When the last thin LV is removed, external origin is no longer
the external origin and it's layer property was dropped.
Ensure dm table is correct by reloading external origin
(when it's active).
When LV is external origin, show info for LV but
status for -layer. So we expose more info to a user
as otherwise active external origin is only linear
mapping of -real layer.
We do the same for i.e. old snaphost origin.
Activation of raid has brough up also splitted image with tracing
(without taking lock for this).
So when raid is now activate - such image is not put into
table (with _rmeta). When user needs such device, just active it.
RAID is LV property
TODO: only 2 flags are seg->status: PVMOVE & MERGING
At least the second one should be soon elimanted as again
we merge LV not a segment.
This is another place for 'common' use pattern or
reload and activation of deleted devices.
(Moving the exclusive activation to _deactivate_and_remove_lvs()).
TODO: looks like halve of raid function is reloading
just 'origin' - and the other full LV.
Fix order of operation when converting raid1 into old mirror.
Before any later metadata modification are initiated prepare
mirror_log device with all clearing.
Then directly convert raid1 into mirror with mirror_log.
This convertion now properly see as precommitted metadata
new 'mirror' and committed old 'raid' and is able to
preload all LVs.
Simplify info run for use only for INFO & STATUS.
Drop handling MKNODES within _info_run() call
and use more advanced _setup_task_run() directly.
This allows to further simplify _info_run().
Integrate also query for inactive table and
handle dm_task_run() and dm_task_get_info()
(thus switching to setup_task_run)
Add one exception case for DM_DEVICE_TARGET_MSG.
This allows further shortening and simplification of all
other users of this function.
It's actually not needed to call extra lv_has_target_type() to detect
snapshot merge is in progress - decode this right during status
capturing and save even few extra ioctl calls.
Drop LV from passed API arg - it's always segment being checked.
Also use_layer is now in full control of lv_info_with_seg_status().
It decides which device needs to be checked to get 'the most info'.
TODO: future version should be able to expose status from
Start moving selection of status taken for a LV into a single place.
The logic for showing info & status has been spread over multiple
places and were doing too complex decision going agains each other.
Unify selection of status of origin & cow scanned device.
TODO: in future we want to grab status for LV and layered LV and have
both statuses present for display - i.e. when 'old snapshot'
of thinLV is takes and there is ongoing merge - at some moment
we are not capable to show all needed info.
When lvm2 wants to see a status, it needs to validate,
segment for status reading is matching whan lvm2 expects in
metadata.
Also ensure status failure will not cause '0' from info reading
when actual info was collected properly.
Failure in 'status' reading is considered to be
a 'log_warn()' event only.
When we can't parse status, switch to warning as this is not
considered an errornous case. LVS is not supposed to return
error status code when device is not what it's been expected to
be - but it should be WARNING a user there is something unexpected.
Convert lvs -o lv_merge_failed,lv_snapshot_invalid to use
lv_info_and_status function.
This makes it equal to attr value showing this info
(as they were different since they were derived from
different data set and different logic as well).
Also saves couple extra ioctl that were needed to obtain this info.
