merge.c:_check_lv_segment() was checking regionsize vs. mirrored LV size on
any 'mirror/raid1/raid10' segment type including type 'mirrored' mirror logs.
Avoid the check only for 'mirrored' mirror logs to allow conversion from log
type 'disk' with regionsize > mirror log SubLV size.
As we disabled support for 'mirrored' mirror logs with
commit e82303fd6a which still conditionally
allows to enable it via global/support_mirrored_mirror_logs=1,
patch is mandatory for all distributions.
Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1712983
Currently lvm2 is not wiping signatures when creating 'metadata' volumes
and raid _rmeta was the only exception - so make the behavior consistent
with other metadata devices and drop wiping ATM.
Drop also some extra debug since they are now more explanatory in
wipe_lv() function.
Also note - although lvm2 now does not wipe signatures - the error
from such wipping used to be actually 'ignored' before wipe_lv()
started to return error (with recent commit) and raid creation
continued with 'unzeroed' metadata device.
TODO: Several issues to resolve:
1. We may want to flip to wipping with all LVs (in that case we need to
support passing --yet & --force).
2. Also we may want to clear whole metadata device - however current
function is also used for wipping i.e. snapshot COW device which
is likely not a good candidate for full device zeroing.
We may also need to think about better logic when extent size is
enforcing very large LVs, when only a small portion of LV is ever
being used.
3. Using TRIM instead of zeroing metadata device might be worth to
implement.

To avoid polution of metadata with some 'garbage' content or eventualy
some leak of stale data in case user want to upload metadata somewhere,
ensure upon allocation the metadata device is fully zeroed.
Behaviour may slow down allocation of thin-pool or cache-pool a bit
so the old behaviour can be restored with lvm.conf setting:
allocation/zero_metadata=0
TODO: add zeroing for extension of metadata volume.
Failure in wiping/zeroing stop the command.
If user wants to avoid command abortion he should use -Zn or -Wn
to avoid wiping.
Note: there is no easy way to distinguish which kind of failure has
happend - so it's safe to not proceed any futher.
When initiated larger write request, it may have happened, bcache
got out of free chunks - fix the loop, that is supposed to wait
until next free chunk becomes avain available.
To create a new cache or writecache LV with a single command:
lvcreate --type cache|writecache
-n Name -L Size --cachedevice PVfast VG [PVslow ...]
- A new main linear|striped LV is created as usual, using the
specified -n Name and -L Size, and using the optionally
specified PVslow devices.
- Then, a new cachevol LV is created internally, using PVfast
specified by the cachedevice option.
- Then, the cachevol is attached to the main LV, converting the
main LV to type cache|writecache.
Include --cachesize Size to specify the size of cache|writecache
to create from the specified --cachedevice PVs, otherwise the
entire cachedevice PV is used. The --cachedevice option can be
repeated to create the cache from multiple devices, or the
cachedevice option can contain a tag name specifying a set of PVs
to allocate the cache from.
To create a new cache or writecache LV with a single command
using an existing cachevol LV:
lvcreate --type cache|writecache
-n Name -L Size --cachevol LVfast VG [PVslow ...]
- A new main linear|striped LV is created as usual, using the
specified -n Name and -L Size, and using the optionally
specified PVslow devices.
- Then, the cachevol LVfast is attached to the main LV, converting
the main LV to type cache|writecache.
In cases where more advanced types (for the main LV or cachevol LV)
are needed, they should be created independently and then combined
with lvconvert.
Example
-------
user creates a new VG with one slow device and one fast device:
$ vgcreate vg /dev/slow1 /dev/fast1
user creates a new 8G main LV on /dev/slow1 that uses all of
/dev/fast1 as a writecache:
$ lvcreate --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/fast1
-n main -L 8G vg /dev/slow1
Example
-------
user creates a new VG with two slow devs and two fast devs:
$ vgcreate vg /dev/slow1 /dev/slow2 /dev/fast1 /dev/fast2
user creates a new 8G main LV on /dev/slow1 and /dev/slow2
that uses all of /dev/fast1 and /dev/fast2 as a writecache:
$ lvcreate --type writecache --cachedevice /dev/fast1 --cachedevice /dev/fast2
-n main -L 8G vg /dev/slow1 /dev/slow2
Example
-------
A user has several slow devices and several fast devices in their VG,
the slow devs have tag @slow, the fast devs have tag @fast.
user creates a new 8G main LV on the slow devs with a
2G writecache on the fast devs:
$ lvcreate --type writecache -n main -L 8G
--cachedevice @fast --cachesize 2G vg @slow
It's possible for a dev-cache entry to remain after all
paths for it have been removed, and other parts of the
code expect that a dev always has a name. A better fix
may be to remove a device from dev-cache after all paths
to it have been removed.
When either logical block size or physical block size is 4K,
then lvmlockd creates sanlock leases based on 4K sectors,
but the lvm client side would create the internal lvmlock LV
based on the first logical block size it saw in the VG,
which could be 512. This could cause the lvmlock LV to be
too small to hold all the sanlock leases. Make the lvm client
side use the same sizing logic as lvmlockd.
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
When vdopool is activated standalone - we use a wrapping linear device
to hold actual vdo device active - for this we can set-up read-only
device to ensure there cannot be made write through this device to
actual pool device.
Creating a snapshot was using a persistent LV lock
on the origin, so if the origin LV was inactive at
the time of the snapshot the LV lock would remain.
(Running lvchange -an on the inactive LV would
clear the LV lock.) Use a transient LV lock so it
will be dropped if it was not locked previously.
When formating VDO volume, the calculated amound of bits
for 'vdoformat --slab-bits' parameter was shifted by 2 bits
(calculated size was making 2MiB vdo_slab_size_mb value appear like if
user would be specifying only 512KiB)
Fixed by properly converting internal size_mb value to KiB.
Fix the anoying kernel message reported:
device-mapper: cache: 253:2: metadata operation 'dm_cache_commit' failed: error = -5
which has been reported while cachevol has been removed.
Happened via confusing variable - so switch the variable to commonly user '_size'
which presents a value in sector units and avoid 'scaling' this as extent length
by vg extent size when placing 'error' target on removal path.
Patch shouldn't have impact on actual users data, since at this moment
of removal all date should have been already flushed to origin device.
m
The previous patch improved read of pipe when lvm2 was looking
for default logical size, but we clearly must read pipe also
for -V case, when the logical size is already defined.
