5263551a2d lvmlockd: replace lock adopt info source
The lock adopt feature was disabled since it had used
lvmetad as a source of info.  This replaces the lvmetad
info with a local file and enables the adopt feature again
(enabled with lvmlockd --adopt 1).

d9e8895a96 Allow dm-integrity to be used for raid images
dm-integrity stores checksums of the data written to an
LV, and returns an error if data read from the LV does
not match the previously saved checksum.  When used on
raid images, dm-raid will correct the error by reading
the block from another image, and the device user sees
no error.  The integrity metadata (checksums) are stored
on an internal LV allocated by lvm for each linear image.
The internal LV is allocated on the same PV as the image.

Create a raid LV with an integrity layer over each
raid image (for raid levels 1,4,5,6,10):

lvcreate --type raidN --raidintegrity y [options]

Add an integrity layer to images of an existing raid LV:

lvconvert --raidintegrity y LV

Remove the integrity layer from images of a raid LV:

lvconvert --raidintegrity n LV

Settings

Use --raidintegritymode journal|bitmap (journal is default)
to configure the method used by dm-integrity to ensure
crash consistency.

Initialization

When integrity is added to an LV, the kernel needs to
initialize the integrity metadata/checksums for all blocks
in the LV.  The data corruption checking performed by
dm-integrity will only operate on areas of the LV that
are already initialized.  The progress of integrity
initialization is reported by the "syncpercent" LV
reporting field (and under the Cpy%Sync lvs column.)

Example: create a raid1 LV with integrity:

$ lvcreate --type raid1 -m1 --raidintegrity y -n rr -L1G foo
  Creating integrity metadata LV rr_rimage_0_imeta with size 12.00 MiB.
  Logical volume "rr_rimage_0_imeta" created.
  Creating integrity metadata LV rr_rimage_1_imeta with size 12.00 MiB.
  Logical volume "rr_rimage_1_imeta" created.
  Logical volume "rr" created.
$ lvs -a foo
  LV                  VG  Attr       LSize  Origin              Cpy%Sync
  rr                  foo rwi-a-r---  1.00g                     4.93
  [rr_rimage_0]       foo gwi-aor---  1.00g [rr_rimage_0_iorig] 41.02
  [rr_rimage_0_imeta] foo ewi-ao---- 12.00m
  [rr_rimage_0_iorig] foo -wi-ao----  1.00g
  [rr_rimage_1]       foo gwi-aor---  1.00g [rr_rimage_1_iorig] 39.45
  [rr_rimage_1_imeta] foo ewi-ao---- 12.00m
  [rr_rimage_1_iorig] foo -wi-ao----  1.00g
  [rr_rmeta_0]        foo ewi-aor---  4.00m
  [rr_rmeta_1]        foo ewi-aor---  4.00m

3145a85583 pvck: repair headers and metadata
To write a new/repaired pv_header and label_header:

  pvck --repairtype pv_header --file <file> <device>

This uses the metadata input file to find the PV UUID,
device size, and data offset.

To write new/repaired metadata text and mda_header:

  pvck --repairtype metadata --file <file> <device>

This requires a good pv_header which points to one or two
metadata areas.  Any metadata areas referenced by the
pv_header are updated with the specified metadata and
a new mda_header. "--settings mda_num=1|2" can be used
to select one mda to repair.

To combine all header and metadata repairs:

  pvck --repair --file <file> <device>

It's best to use a raw metadata file as input, that was
extracted from another PV in the same VG (or from another
metadata area on the same PV.)  pvck will also accept a
metadata backup file, but that will produce metadata that
is not identical to other metadata copies on other PVs
and other areas.  So, when using a backup file, consider
using it to update metadata on all PVs/areas.

To get a raw metadata file to use for the repair, see
pvck --dump metadata|metadata_search.

List all instances of metadata from the metadata area:
  pvck --dump metadata_search <device>

Save one instance of metadata at the given offset to
the specified file (this file can be used for repair):

  pvck --dump metadata_search --file <file>
    --settings "metadata_offset=<off>" <device>

a9eaab6beb Use "cachevol" to refer to cache on a single LV
and "cachepool" to refer to a cache on a cache pool object.

The problem was that the --cachepool option was being used
to refer to both a cache pool object, and to a standard LV
used for caching.  This could be somewhat confusing, and it
made it less clear when each kind would be used.  By
separating them, it's clear when a cachepool or a cachevol
should be used.

Previously:

- lvm would use the cache pool approach when the user passed
  a cache-pool LV to the --cachepool option.

- lvm would use the cache vol approach when the user passed
  a standard LV in the --cachepool option.

Now:

- lvm will always use the cache pool approach when the user
  uses the --cachepool option.

- lvm will always use the cache vol approach when the user
  uses the --cachevol option.
