Do not let fly metadata with just 'minor' set
(since they would not be readable on older version)
Be permissive with invalid major/minor number and
just report them as problem, but allow to use
such metadata with default major:minor.
Try to enforce consistent macro usage along these lines:
lv_is_mirror - mirror that uses the original dm-raid1 implementation
(segment type "mirror")
lv_is_mirror_type - also includes internal mirror image and log LVs
lv_is_raid - raid volume that uses the new dm-raid implementation
(segment type "raid")
lv_is_raid_type - also includes internal raid image / log / metadata LVs
lv_is_mirrored - LV is mirrored using either kernel implementation
(excludes non-mirror modes like raid5 etc.)
lv_is_pvmove - internal pvmove volume
Use lv_is_* macros throughout the code base, introducing
lv_is_pvmove, lv_is_locked, lv_is_converting and lv_is_merging.
lv_is_mirror_type no longer includes pvmove.
- When defining configuration source, the code now uses separate
CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND and CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA markers
(before, it was just CONFIG_PROFILE that did not make the
difference between the two). This helps when checking the
configuration if it contains correct set of options which
are all in either command-profilable or metadata-profilable
group without mixing these groups together - so it's a firm
distinction. The "command profile" can't contain
"metadata profile" and vice versa! This is strictly checked
and if the settings are mixed, such profile is rejected and
it's not used. So in the end, the CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND
set of options and CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA are mutually exclusive
sets.
- Marking configuration with one or the other marker will also
determine the way these configuration sources are positioned
in the configuration cascade which is now:
CONFIG_STRING -> CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND -> CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA -> CONFIG_FILE/CONFIG_MERGED_FILES
- Marking configuration with one or the other marker will also make
it possible to issue a command context refresh (will be probably
a part of a future patch) if needed for settings in global profile
set. For settings in metadata profile set this is impossible since
we can't refresh cmd context in the middle of reading VG/LV metadata
and for each VG/LV separately because each VG/LV can have a different
metadata profile assinged and it's not possible to change these
settings at this level.
- When command profile is incorrect, it's rejected *and also* the
command exits immediately - the profile *must* be correct for the
command that was run with a profile to be executed. Before this
patch, when the profile was found incorrect, there was just the
warning message and the command continued without profile applied.
But it's more correct to exit immediately in this case.
- When metadata profile is incorrect, we reject it during command
runtime (as we know the profile name from metadata and not early
from command line as it is in case of command profiles) and we
*do continue* with the command as we're in the middle of operation.
Also, the metadata profile is applied directly and on the fly on
find_config_tree_* fn call and even if the metadata profile is
found incorrect, we still need to return the non-profiled value
as found in the other configuration provided or default value.
To exit immediately even in this case, we'd need to refactor
existing find_config_tree_* fns so they can return error. Currently,
these fns return only config values (which end up with default
values in the end if the config is not found).
- To check the profile validity before use to be sure it's correct,
one can use :
lvm dumpconfig --commandprofile/--metadataprofile ProfileName --validate
(the --commandprofile/--metadataprofile for dumpconfig will come
as part of the subsequent patch)
- This patch also adds a reference to --commandprofile and
--metadataprofile in the cmd help string (which was missing before
for the --profile for some commands). We do not mention --profile
now as people should use --commandprofile or --metadataprofile
directly. However, the --profile is still supported for backward
compatibility and it's translated as:
--profile == --metadataprofile for lvcreate, vgcreate, lvchange and vgchange
(as these commands are able to attach profile to metadata)
--profile == --commandprofile for all the other commands
(--metadataprofile is not allowed there as it makes no sense)
- This patch also contains some cleanups to make the code handling
the profiles more readable...
This is per VG/LV profile loading on demand. The profile itself is saved
in struct volume_group/logical_volume as "profile" field so we can
reference it whenever needed.
...not the other way round as it was before. This way it makes
more sense as BA use is exceptional and it's useless to
contaminate the log with messages about BA not being found
in metadata.
New tools with PV header extension support will read the extension
if it exists and it's not an error if it does not exist (so old PVs
will still work seamlessly with new tools).
Old tools without PV header extension support will just ignore any
extension.
As for the Embedding Area location information (its start and size),
there are actually two places where this is stored:
- PV header extension
- VG metadata
The VG metadata contains a copy of what's written in the PV header
extension about the Embedding Area location (NULL value is not copied):
physical_volumes {
pv0 {
id = "AkSSRf-difg-fCCZ-NjAN-qP49-1zzg-S0Fd4T"
device = "/dev/sda" # Hint only
status = ["ALLOCATABLE"]
flags = []
dev_size = 262144 # 128 Megabytes
pe_start = 67584
pe_count = 23 # 92 Megabytes
ea_start = 2048
ea_size = 65536 # 32 Megabytes
}
}
The new metadata fields are "ea_start" and "ea_size".
This is mostly useful when restoring the PV by using existing
metadata backups (e.g. pvcreate --restorefile ...).
New tools does not require these two fields to exist in VG metadata,
they're not compulsory. Therefore, reading old VG metadata which doesn't
contain any Embedding Area information will not end up with any kind
of error but only a debug message that the ea_start and ea_size values
were not found.
Old tools just ignore these extra fields in VG metadata.
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.
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".
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.
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
As code uses strncpy(system_id, NAME_LEN) and doesn't set '\0'
Fix it by always allocating NAME_LEN + 1 buffer size and with zalloc
we always get '\0' as the last byte.
This bug may trigger some unexpected behavior of the string operation
code - depends on the pool allocator.
FIXME: refactor this code to alloc_vg.
This is essential for proper format instance ref_count support. We must
use these functions to set the fid everywhere from now on, even the NULL
value!
Create new function alloc_vg() to allocate VG structure.
It takes pool_name (for easier debugging).
and also take vg_name to futher simplify code.
Move remainder of _build_vg_from_pds to _pool_vg_read
and use vg memory pool for import functions.
(it's been using smem -> fid mempool -> cmd mempool)
(FIXME: remove mempool parameter for import functions and use vg).
Move remainder of the _build_vg to _format1_vg_read
Checking for vg being != NULL in this place is not needed.
Pointer vg is already dereferced in this function above this code line.
Also this internal function _read_pv is always called with valid 'vg' pointer.
To have better control were the config tree could be modified use more
const pointers and very carefully downcast them back to non-const
(for config tree merge).
This patch adds the ability to read/write the vg->mda_copies values
from/to the vg metadata.
If we read the VG metadata and this field does not exist, we set
mda_copies to the default value of 0. Later in the code, we use
this special '0' value to indicate a disable of metadata balancing.
This should preserve existing LVM behavior and ensure metadata balancing
can be turned off should the need arise.

When moving parts of striped LVs, pvmove wouldn't care about leaving you with
two stripes on the same disk. Now --alloc anywhere is needed for that.
(Tried and gave up on two alternative approaches before the one committed here.)
Small refactor of main places in the code where a pv is added to a
vg into a small function which adds the pv to the list and updates
the vg counts.

Simple refactor to mov code that updates the vg extent counts from a
single pv's counts close to the code that adds a pv to vg->pvs and
updates vg->pv_count. No functional change.

The _read_vg uses already hash for PVs to optimise
reading of large VGs and avoiding repeated PV list traversing.
Use the same aproach to speed up parsing VG with many LVs.
At this point they probably do not matter but going forward they
may - depends on future patches for replicator, etc. I think
these probably got missed because they were 'flags' so I changed
the name to 'status' to be consistent. So the on-disk
things 'flags' and the in structure 'status' (bits).
NOTE: WHATS_NEW already has entry for this in current release.

The physical_volume, volume_group, logical_volume and lv_segment
structures' 'status' member is now uint64_t.
The alignment of these structures was also audited to remove holes. The
movement of some members in 'volume_group' and 'lv_segment' eliminates
holes. The 'physical_volume' structure still has one 4-byte hole after
'pe_size'; the other structures no longer have any holes. Each
structures' size has not changed.
