ec49f07b0d mirrors: fix leak in device_is_usable mirror check
Function _ignore_blocked_mirror_devices was not release
allocated strings images_health and log_health.

In error paths it was also not releasing dm_task structure.

Swaped return code of _ignore_blocked_mirror_devices and
use 1 as success.

In _parse_mirror_status use log_error if memory allocation
fails and few more errors so they are no going unnoticed
as debug messages.

On error path always clear return values and free strings.

For dev_create_file  use cache mem pool to avoid memleak.

3835755259 pvmove/RAID: Disallow pvmove on RAID LVs until properly handled
Attempting pvmove on RAID LVs replaces the kernel RAID target with
a temporary pvmove target, ultimately destroying the RAID LV.  pvmove
must be prevented on RAID LVs for now.

Use 'lvconvert --replace old_pv vg/lv new_pv' if you want to move
an image of the RAID LV.

e2be2652ad Allow empty activation/{auto_activation|read_only|}_volume_list config option.
In case we don't want to activate, autoactivate or have the
VG/LV read-only. Primarily targeted for the auto_activation_volume_list,
but it makes no harm for other settings (the part of the code
that reads these three settings is shared, but there's no
reason to separate it only for this change).

4891a735d3 udev: recognize DM_DISABLE_UDEV environment variable
Setting this environment variable will cause a full fallback
to old direct node and symlink management in libdevmapper and lvm2.

It means:

 - disabling udev synchronization
   (--noudevsync in dmsetup and --noudevsync + activation/udev_sync=0
    lvm2 config)
 - disabling dm and any subsystem related udev rules
   (--noudevrules in dmsetup and activation/udev_rules=0 lvm2 config)
 - management of nodes/symlinks under /dev directly by libdevmapper/lvm2
   (--verifyudev in dmsetup and activation/verify_udev_operations=1
    lvm2 config)
 - not obtaining any device list from udev database
   (devices/obtain_device_list_from_udev=0 lvm2 config)

Note: we could set all of these before - there's no functional change!
However the DM_DISABLE_UDEV environment variable is a nice shortcut
to make it easier for libdevmapper users so that one can switch off all
of the udev management off at one go directly on the command line,
without a need to modify any source or add any extra switches.

fb8cc7c63f udev: do not verify udev operations for --noudevsync
If udev synchronization is disabled by means of --noudevsync
option, we should disable just the synchronization and nothing else.
The udev fallback (verifying udev operations and fixing the
nodes/symlinks if found incorrect) is orthogonal and controlled
by a separate activation/verify_udev_operations configuration option.

b3e9a09abe RAID: If no stripes argument is given for RAID10 create, default to 2

Move common functions for lvcreate and lvconvert.

get_pool_params() - read thin pool args.
update_pool_params() - updates/validates some thin args.

It is getting complicated and even few more things will be
implemented, so to avoid reimplementing things differently
in lvcreate and lvconvert  code has been splitted
into 2 common functions that allow some future extension.

54c73b7723 mirror: Mirrored log should be fixed before mirror when double fault occurs
This patch is intended to fix bug 825323 - FS turns read-only during a double
fault of a mirror leg and mirrored log's leg at the same time.  It only
affects a 2-way mirror with a mirrored log.  3+-way mirrors and mirrors
without a mirrored log are not affected.

The problem resulted from the fact that the top level mirror was not
using 'noflush' when suspending before its "down-convert".  When a
mirror image fails, the bios are queue until a suspend is recieved.  If
it is a 'noflush' suspend, the bios can be safely requeued in the DM
core.  If 'noflush' is not used, the bios must be pushed through the
target and if a device is failed for a mirror, that means issuing an
error.  When an error is received by a file system, it results in it
turning read-only (depending on the FS).

Part of the problem was is due to the nature of the stacking involved in
using a mirror as a mirror's log.  When an image in each fail, the top
level mirror stalls because it is waiting for a log flush.  The other
stalls waiting for corrective action.  When the repair command is issued,
the entire stacked arrangement is collapsed to a linear LV.  The log
flush then fails (somewhat uncleanly) and the top-level mirror is suspended
without 'noflush' because it is a linear device.

This patch allows the log to be repaired first, which in turn allows the
top-level mirror's log flush to complete cleanly.  The top-level mirror
is then secondarily reduced to a linear device - at which time this mirror
is suspended properly with 'noflush'.

360c569ce8 systemd: various updates and fixes
Don't use lvmetad in lvm2-monitor.service ExecStop to avoid a systemd issue.
 - a systemd design issue while processing dependencies
   with socket-based activation that ends up with a hang
 - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843587
   (also tracker bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=871527)
 - not using lvmetad in this case is just a workaround, once the bug
   above is resolved, we should enable the lvmetad in that specific case

Remove dependency on fedora-storage-init.service in lvm2 systemd units.
 - fedora-storage-init.service and fedora-storage-init-late.service is
   going to be separated into respective units that belong to each block
   device subsystem:
     - mpath + mdraid activated via udev solely
     - dmraid with its own dmraid-activation.service unit
     - lvm2 with the lvm2-activation-generator to generate the
       activation units runtime if lvmetad disabled
       (global/use_lvmetad=0 set in lvm.conf) and activation done
       via udev+lvmetad if lvmetad enabled (global/use_lvmetad=1 set
       in lvm.conf)

Depend on lvm2-lvmetad.socket in lvm2-monitor.service systemd unit.
 - as lvm2-monitor uses lvmetad if lvmetad is enabled

b248ba0a39 mirror: Avoid reading mirrors with failed devices in mirrored log
Commit 9fd7ac7d03 did not handle mirrors
that contained mirrored logs.  This is because the status line of the
mirror does not give an indication of the health of the mirrored log,
as you can see here:
        [root@bp-01 lvm2]# dmsetup status vg-lv vg-lv_mlog
        vg-lv: 0 409600 mirror 2 253:6 253:7 400/400 1 AA 3 disk 253:5 A
        vg-lv_mlog: 0 8192 mirror 2 253:3 253:4 7/8 1 AD 1 core
Thus, the possibility for LVM commands to hang still persists when mirror
have mirrored logs.  I discovered this while performing some testing that
does polling with 'pvs' while doing I/O and killing devices.  The 'pvs'
managed to get between the mirrored log device failure and the attempt
by dmeventd to repair it.  The result was a very nasty block in LVM
commands that is very difficult to remove - even for someone who knows
what is going on.  Thus, it is absolutely essential that the log of a
mirror be recursively checked for mirror devices which may be failed
as well.

Despite what the code comment says in the aforementioned commit...
+ * _mirrored_transient_status().  FIXME: It is unable to handle mirrors
+ * with mirrored logs because it does not have a way to get the status of
+ * the mirror that forms the log, which could be blocked.
... it is possible to get the status of the log because the log device
major/minor is given to us by the status output of the top-level mirror.
We can use that to query the log device for any DM status and see if it
is a mirror that needs to be bypassed.  This patch does just that and is
now able to avoid reading from mirrors that have failed devices in a
mirrored log.

9fd7ac7d03 mirror: Avoid reading from mirrors that have failed devices
Addresses: rhbz855398 (Allow VGs to be built on cluster mirrors),
           and other issues.

The LVM code attempts to avoid reading labels from devices that are
suspended to try to avoid situations that may cause the commands to
block indefinitely.  When scanning devices, 'ignore_suspended_devices'
can be set so the code (lib/activate/dev_manager.c:device_is_usable())
checks any DM devices it finds and avoids them if they are suspended.

The mirror target has an additional mechanism that can cause I/O to
be blocked.  If a device in a mirror fails, all I/O will be blocked
by the kernel until a new table (a linear target or a mirror with
replacement devices) is loaded.  The mirror indicates that this condition
has happened by marking a 'D' for the faulty device in its status
output.  This condition must also be checked by 'device_is_usable()' to
avoid the possibility of blocking LVM commands indefinitely due to an
attempt to read the blocked mirror for labels.

Until now, mirrors were avoided if the 'ignore_suspended_devices'
condition was set.  This check seemed to suggest, "if we are concerned
about suspended devices, then let's ignore mirrors altogether just
in case".  This is insufficient and doesn't solve any problems.  All
devices that are suspended are already avoided if
'ignore_suspended_devices' is set; and if a mirror is blocking because
of an error condition, it will block the LVM command regardless of the
setting of that variable.

Rather than avoiding mirrors whenever 'ignore_suspended_devices' is
set, this patch causes mirrors to be avoided whenever they are blocking
due to an error.  (As mentioned above, the case where a DM device is
suspended is already covered.)  This solves a number of issues that weren't
handled before.  For example, pvcreate (or any command that does a
pv_read or vg_read, which eventually call device_is_usable()) will be
protected from blocked mirrors regardless of how
'ignore_suspended_devices' is set.  Additionally, a mirror that is
neither suspended nor blocking is /allowed/ to be read regardless
of how 'ignore_suspended_devices' is set.  (The latter point being the
source of the fix for rhbz855398.)
