Automatically figure out resizable layer in the LV stack and
resize it online.
Split check for reshaped raids and postpone removal of
unused space after finished reshaping after metadata archiving.
Drop warning about unsupported automatic resize of monitored thin-pool.
Currently there is not yet support for resize of writecache.
In past we had this control with use_lvmetad check for
pvscan --cache -aay
Howerer this got lost with lvmetad removal commit:
117160b27e
When user sets lvm.conf global/event_activation=0
pvscan service will no longer auto activate any LVs on appeared PVs.
Move extra md component detection into the label scan phase.
It had been in set_pv_devices which was deep within the vg_read
phase, which wasn't a good place (better to detect that earlier.)
Now that pv metadata info is available in the scan phase, the pv
details (size and device_hint) can be used for extra md checking.
Use the device_hint from the pv metadata to trigger a full md
component check if the device_hint begins with /dev/md.
Stop triggering full md component checks based on missing
udev info for a dev.
Changes to tests to reflect that the code is now detecting
md components in some test case that it wasn't before.
A cachevol can be forcibly detached when it's missing devices.
Also allow this if it's damaged/invalid and unrepairable.
This would be needed to recover data from the origin LV after
a cachevol is lost or damaged beyond repair.
In cases where lvconvert does not detect a fs block size on the
device, it falls back to choosing a writecache block size based
on the device's LBS and PBS (tries to match those.)
If the user specifies a writecache block size on the command
line (--cachesettings block_size=4096|512), lvconvert currently
fails and reports an error if the user-specified value does not
match the value lvconvert would have chosen based on LBS and PBS.
The purpose of allowing a user-specified value on the command line
is to override what lvconvert would otherwise do, so change this
to just print a warning that the user value does not match the
value that would be chosen based on the LBS/PBS, and then take
the user-specified value as the writecache block size.
Current allocation limitation requires to fit metadata/log LV on
a single PV. This is usually not a big problem, but since
thin-pool and cache-pool is using this for allocating extents
for their metadata LVs it might be eventually causing errors
where the remaining free spaces for large metadata size is spread
over several PV.
When passing 'pvmove --name arg' try to automatically move
all associated dependencies with given LV.
i.e. 'pvmove --name thinpool vg vgnew'
moves all thins and data and metadata LV into a new VG vgnew.
Use update_pool_metadata_min_max() which is shared with
thin-pool metadata min-max updating.
Gives improved messages when converting volumes to metadata.
There is not much point to let allocate more then this size
even when i.e. converted LV is bigger then 16GiB (%extent_size)
ATM neither thin-pool nor cache-pool supports bigger metadata.
Initial support for thin-pool used slightly smaller max size 15.81GiB
for thin-pool metadata. However the real limit later settled at 15.88GiB
(difference is ~64MiB - 16448 4K blocks).
lvm2 could not simply increase the size as it has been using hard cropping
of the loaded metadata device to avoid warnings printing warning of kernel
when the size was bigger (i.e. due to bigger extent_size).
This patch adds the new lvm.conf configurable setting:
allocation/thin_pool_crop_metadata
which defaults to 0 -> no crop of metadata beyond 15.81GiB.
Only user with these sizes of metadata will be affected.
Without cropping lvm2 now limits metadata allocation size to 15.88GiB.
Any space beyond is currently not used by thin-pool target.
Even if i.e. bigger LV is used for metadata via lvconvert,
or allocated bigger because of to large extent size.
With cropping enabled (=1) lvm2 preserves the old limitation
15.81GiB and should allow to work in the evironement with
older lvm2 tools (i.e. older distribution).
Thin-pool metadata with size bigger then 15.81G is now using CROP_METADATA
flag within lvm2 metadata, so older lvm2 recognizes an
incompatible thin-pool and cannot activate such pool!
Users should use uncropped version as it is not suffering
from various issues between thin_repair results and allocated
metadata LV as thin_repair limit is 15.88GiB
Users should use cropping only when really needed!
Patch also better handles resize of thin-pool metadata and prevents resize
beoyond usable size 15.88GiB. Resize beyond 15.81GiB automatically
switches pool to no-crop version. Even with existing bigger thin-pool
metadata command 'lvextend -l+1 vg/pool_tmeta' does the change.
Patch gives better controls 'coverted' metadata LV and
reports less confusing message during conversion.
Patch set also moves the code for updating min/max into pool_manip.c
for better sharing with cache_pool code.
When detaching writecache, make the first stage send a message
to dm-writecache to set the cleaner option. This is instead of
reloading the dm table with the cleaner option set. Reloading
the table causes udev to process/probe the dm dev, which gets
stalled because of the writeback activity, and the stalled udev
in turn stalls the lvconvert command when it tries to sync with
udev events.
When getting writecache status we do not need to get
open_count or read_head info, which can cause extra steps.
