The libblkid can detect DM_snapshot_cow signature and when creating
new LVs with blkid wiping used (allocation/use_blkid_wiping=1 lvm.conf
setting and --wipe y used at the same time - which it is by default).
Do not issue any prompts about this signature when new LV is created
and just wipe it right away without asking questions. Still keep the
log in verbose mode though.
We need both offset and length when trying to wipe detected signatures.
The libblkid can fail so it's good to have an error message issued for
this state instead of being silent (libblkid does not issue any error
messages here). We just issued "stack" here before but that was not
quite useful if some error occurs...
If we're calling pvcreate on a device that already has a PV label,
the blkid detects the existing PV and then we consider it for wiping
before we continue creating the new PV label and we issue a warning
with a prompt whether such old PV label should be removed. We don't
do this with native signature detection code. Let's make it consistent
with old behaviour.
But still keep this "PV" (identified as "LVM1_member" or "LVM2_member"
by blkid) detection when creating new LVs to avoid unexpected PV label
appeareance inside LV.
This is actually the wipefs functionailty as a matter of fact
(wipefs uses the same libblkid calls).
libblkid is more rich when it comes to detecting various
signatures, including filesystems and users can better
decide what to erase and what should be kept.
The code is shared for both pvcreate (where wiping is necessary
to complete the pvcreate operation) and lvcreate where it's up
to the user to decide.
The verbose output contains a bit more information about the
signature like LABEL and UUID.
For example:
raw/~ # lvcreate -L16m vg
WARNING: linux_raid_member signature detected on /dev/vg/lvol0 at offset 4096. Wipe it? [y/n]
or more verbose one:
raw/~ # lvcreate -L16m vg -v
...
Found existing signature on /dev/vg/lvol0 at offset 4096: LABEL="raw.virt:0" UUID="da6af139-8403-5d06-b8c4-13f6f24b73b1" TYPE="linux_raid_member" USAGE="raid"
WARNING: linux_raid_member signature detected on /dev/vg/lvol0 at offset 4096. Wipe it? [y/n]
The verbose output is the same output as found in blkid.
The wipe_known_signatures fn now wraps the _wipe_signature fn that is called
for each known signature (currently md, swap and luks). This patch makes the
code more readable, not repeating the same sequence when used anywhere in the
code. We're going to reuse this code later...
Put common printf() case into a function and use
the string with text format as direct arg to make
the compile time validation of args easier and
code shorter.
Switch log_error() to log_warn(), since 'return 0'
doesn't cause any failure here.
The dev_get_primary_dev fn now returns:
0 if the dev is already a primary dev
1 if the dev is a partition, primary dev is returned in "result" (output arg)
-1 on error
This way, we can better differentiate between the error state
and the state in which the dev supplied is not a partition
in the caller (this was same return value before).
Also, if we already have information about the device type,
we can check its major number against the list of known device
types (cmd->dev_types) directly, so we don't need to go through
the sysfs - we only check the major:minor pair which is a bit
more straightforward and faster. If the dev_types does not have
any info about this device type, the code just fallbacks to
the original sysfs interface to get the partition info.
Changes:
- move device type registration out of "type filter" (filter.c)
to a separate and new dev-type.[ch] for common use throughout the code
- the structure for keeping the major numbers detected for available
device types and available partitioning available is stored in
"dev_types" structure now
- move common partitioning detection code to dev-type.[ch] as well
together with other device-related functions bound to dev_types
(see dev-type.h for the interface)
The dev-type interface contains all common functions used to detect
subsystems/device types, signature/superblock recognition code,
type-specific device properties and other common device properties
(bound to dev_types), including partitioning support.
- add dev_types instance to cmd context as cmd->dev_types for common use
- use cmd->dev_types throughout as a central point for providing
information about device types
