Allow restoring metadata with thin pool volumes.
No validation is done for this case within vgcfgrestore tool -
thus incorrect metadata may lead to destruction of pool content.
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.
We were using daemon_send_simple until now, but it is no longer adequate, since
we need to manipulate requests in a generic way (adding a validity token to each
request), and the tree-based request interface is much more suitable for this.
Add 3rd daemon return state "unknown" for lookups that are carried out
successfully but don't find the item requested.
Avoid issuing error messages when it's expected that a device that's
being looked up in lvmetad might not be there.
Make sure both hash tables are initialized before _read_sections() call.
Presents no functional change (since PV scan phase was not adding LV hashes),
but makes the code easier to handle mem failing case, and static analyzer is
hapier as well.
Adding at least stack traces with some FIXMEs for cases,
where we might want to do something cleaver - maybe fail command
or give user hints something is not going well ?
For remote_backup is stack probably 'good' enough for now.
Move commod code to destroy orphan VG into free_orphan_vg() function.
Use orphan vgmem for creation of PV lists.
Remove some free_pv_fid() calls (FIXME: check all of them)
FIXME: Check whether we could merge release_vg back again for all VGs.
Basic support to keep info when the LV was created.
Host and time is stored into LV mda section.
FIXME: Current version doesn't support configurable string via lvm.conf
and used fixed version strftime "%Y-%m-%d %T %z".
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
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.
When a PV label write is deferred to a vg_write call (as introduced by a patch
in 2.02.86), the PV is flagged with the internal UNLABELLED_PV flag. However,
when calling vg_archive before vg_write, we still have the PV labelled with the
UNLABELLED_PV flag which was not recognised as a proper flag while exporting
VG metadata:
# vgcreate vg /dev/sda
No physical volume label read from /dev/sda
Metadata inconsistency: Not all flags successfully exported.
Metadata inconsistency: Not all flags successfully exported.
Writing physical volume data to disk "/dev/sda"
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
Volume group "vg" successfully created
functionality. A number of bugs (copied and pasted all over the code) should
disappear:
- most string lookup based on dm_config_find_node would segfault when
encountering a non-zero integer (the intention there was to print an
error message instead)
- check for required sections in metadata would have been satisfied by
values as well (i.e. not sections)
- encountering a section in place of expected flag value would have
segfaulted (due to assumed but unchecked cn->v != NULL)
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.
There's a very high memory usage when calling _pv_analyse_mda_raw (e.g. while
executing pvck) that can end up with "out of memory".
_pv_analyse_mda_raw scans for metadata in the MDA, iteratively increasing the
size to scan with SECTOR_SIZE until we find a probable config section or we're
at the edge of the metadata area. However, when using a memory pool, we're also
iteratively chasing for bigger and bigger mempool chunk which can't be found
and so we're always allocating a new one, consuming more and more memory...
This patch just changes the mempool to direct memory allocation in this
problematic part of the code.
Move the free_vg() to vg.c and replace free_vg with release_vg
and make the _free_vg internal.
Patch is needed for sharing VG in vginfo cache so the release_vg function name
is a better fit here.
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
It's useful to keep the partial flag cached - so just move the call
for vg_mark_partil_lvs() into import_vg_from_config_tree() so it gets
evaluated before it goes through the lvmcache.
This patch should not present any functional change.
Note: It is rather temporal solution - proper place is probably inside the
'read' call back - but needs some more discussion.
For now using this minor hack.
