Support error_if_no_space feature for thin pools.
Report more info about thinpool status:
(out_of_data (D), metadata_read_only (M), failed (F) also as health
attribute.)
Do not use 'any' policy name as a value in config tree - so we stick
with 'policy_settings' and extra 'policy_name' for libdm params.
Update lvm2 API as well.
Example of supported metadata:
policy = "mq"
policy_settings {
migration_threshold = 2048
sequential_threshold = 512
random_threshold = 4
read_promote_adjustment = 10
}
Support new PASSTHROUGH 'feature' flag.
Add dm_config_node to pass in policy args.
Really use origin_uuid instead of using extra call
to pass seg_areas.
Switch to 64bit feature flag bit set so there is
enough space in future for new bits...
When transaction_id is set 0 for thin-pool, libdm avoids validation
of thin-pool, unless there are real messages to be send to thin-pool.
This relaxes strict policy which always required to know
in front transaction_id for the kernel target.
It now allows to activate thin-pool with any transaction_id
(when transaction_id is passed in)
It is now upto application to validate transaction_id from life
thin-pool volume with transaction_id within it's own metadata.
Add extra safety detection for thin pool transaction id
and query pool status after confirmed message.
In case there is a missmatch, immeditelly abort further
processing.
2.02.106 added suffixes to some LV uuids in the kernel.
If any of these LVs is activated with 2.02.105 or earlier,
and then a later version is used, the LVs appear invisible and
activation commands fail.
The code now has to check the kernel for both old and new uuids.
As part of better error handling, remove DM devices that have been
sucessfully created but failed to load a table. This can happen
when pvmove'ing in a cluster and the cluster mirror daemon is not
running on a remote node - the mapping table failing to load as a
result. In this case, any revert would work on other nodes running
cmirrord because the DM devices on those nodes did succeed in loading.
However, because no table was able to load on the non-cmirrord nodes,
there is no table present that points to what needs to be reverted.
This causes the empty DM device to remain on the system without being
present in any LVM representation.
This patch should only be considered a partial fix to the overall
problem. This is because only the device which failed to load a
table is removed. Any LVs that may have been loaded as requirements
to the DM device that failed to load may be left in place. Complete
clean-up will require tracking those devices which have been created
as dependencies and removing them along with the device that failed
to load a table.
When the node enters dtree with implicit dependency, it
automatically has udev flags from parent node
and could not be changed later when the node has been
entered again via i.e lvm's preload tracking.
Resolve this by tracking whether the node has been
created by implicit dependency tracking or has been
entered explicitely. Implicit node could be later
upgraded by an explicit _add_dev() with proper udev_flags.
For implicit devices add special udev flags to avoid
any scan and udev rule processing if we resume such device.
Patch allows easier removing of orphan nodes.
Reuse _node_send_messages for just checking
for valid transaction_id with preload.
This allows earlier detection of incosistent thin pool.
Code does the same thing, except for sending messages.
Improve testing of transation_id to not allow other difference
then either kernel TID is equal or is lower by oned and there
are queued messages for transaction.
Mark messages as submitted if the transaction_id is already matching.
Do not try to deactivate node on failure here and leave it on
proper error path of the caller.
Deactivation of top level node has to happen,
before traversing subtree.
Swap list logic and rather append new nodes to the head
and then use normal iteration.
(in-release update)
Avoid introducing libdm structure allocated in library user.
Use direct call with all currently supported args.
When new arg is added, new function will cover it.
This patch defines a structure for holding all of the device-mapper
cache target's status information. The associated function provides
an easy way for higher levels (LVM) to consume the information.
This patch finishes the device-mapper interface for the cache and
cachepool segment types (i.e. the cache target).
This patch adds the cache segment type - the second of two necessary
to create cache logical volumes. This segment type references the
cachepool (the small fast device) and the origin (the large slow device);
linking them to create the cache device. The cache device is the
hierarchical device-mapper device that the user ulitmately makes use
of.
The cache segment sources the information necessary to construct the
device-mapper cache target from the origin and cachepool segments to
which it links.
Revert activated volumes if callback fails.
This is currently used only for thin_check failure support.
When thin_check detects failure in thin metadata device, it deactivate
volumes in reversed order that have been preloaded for thin pool activation.
After this change lvm command will not leave active pool subvolumes
in dm table.
Pass dnode pointer instead of rather unknown child pointer.
The pointer is currently unused and passing child pointer
is quite undefined, while dnode has at least some usability.
When images and their associated metadata are removed from a RAID1 LV,
the remaining sub-LVs are "shifted" down to fill the gaps. For
example, if there is a 3-way mirror:
[0][1][2]
and we remove device#0, the devices will be shifted down
[1][2]
and renamed.
[0][1]
This can create a problem for resume_lv (specifically,
dm_tree_activate_children) during the renaming process though. This
is because it will attempt to rename the higher indexed sub-LVs first
and find that it cannot because there are currently other sub-LVs with
that name. The solution is to check for a conflicting name before
attempting to rename. If a conflict is found and that conflicting
sub-LV is also in the process of renaming, we can defer the current
rename until the conflicting sub-LV has renamed and cleared the
conflict.
Now that resume_lv can handle these types of rename conflicts, we can
remove the workaround in RAID that was attempting to resume a RAID1
LV from the bottom-up in order to force a proper rename in assending
order before attempting a resume on the top-level LV. This "hack"
only worked for single machine use-cases of LVM. Clearing this up
paves the way for exclusive activation of RAID LVs in a cluster.
When resuming a node needed by a higher layer of the tree,
if the resume fails, only remove it if the node did not
originally have a live table.
Ref. 97f8454ecc
Clear send_messages flag when they have been delivered successfully.
There is no need to validate it for all other activations of the same
node in the dm_tree.
Also add extra debug message which shows the reason for skipping
sending of messages because the transaction_id has already the matching
value.
This patch adds the ability to set the minimum and maximum I/O rate for
sync operations in RAID LVs. The options are available for 'lvcreate' and
'lvchange' and are as follows:
--minrecoveryrate <Rate> [bBsSkKmMgG]
--maxrecoveryrate <Rate> [bBsSkKmMgG]
The rate is specified in size/sec/device. If a suffix is not given,
kiB/sec/device is assumed. Setting the rate to 0 removes the preference.
This patch may not be fully correct. It tries to solve
the imbalanced suspend counter.
The problem starts when some LV is created and fails in resume path.
(i.e. resuming to large PV (enforced) over small loop devices)
This fails in _resume_node() after dm_task_run(). And while
existing device with empty table is left in inactive table,
further calls are reporting this device is in suspend state.
When later the lvm2 tries to rollback created device and deactivate it,
it will end with internal error, when we try to decrement
never incremented suspend counter.
As an 'easy fix' for now update suspend counter only for live nodes.
TODO: explore better fix.
Since we use get_status also in dmeventd, which may use one pool
for a single device, in case it would be repeatedly returning error,
it may not be freeing the pool and would cause slow but steady growth.
To stay safe in the error path release any allocated memory.
'lvchange' is used to alter a RAID 1 logical volume's write-mostly and
write-behind characteristics. The '--writemostly' parameter takes a
PV as an argument with an optional trailing character to specify whether
to set ('y'), unset ('n'), or toggle ('t') the value. If no trailing
character is given, it will set the flag.
Synopsis:
lvchange [--writemostly <PV>:{t|y|n}] [--writebehind <count>] vg/lv
Example:
lvchange --writemostly /dev/sdb1:y --writebehind 512 vg/raid1_lv
The last character in the 'lv_attr' field is used to show whether a device
has the WriteMostly flag set. It is signified with a 'w'. If the device
has failed, the 'p'artial flag has priority.
Example ("nosync" raid1 with mismatch_cnt and writemostly):
[~]# lvs -a --segment vg
LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize
raid1 vg Rwi---r-m 2 raid1 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_0] vg Iwi---r-- 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_1] vg Iwi---r-w 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rmeta_0] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
[raid1_rmeta_1] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
Example (raid1 with mismatch_cnt, writemostly - but failed drive):
[~]# lvs -a --segment vg
LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize
raid1 vg rwi---r-p 2 raid1 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_0] vg Iwi---r-- 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rimage_1] vg Iwi---r-p 1 linear 500.00m
[raid1_rmeta_0] vg ewi---r-- 1 linear 4.00m
[raid1_rmeta_1] vg ewi---r-p 1 linear 4.00m
A new reportable field has been added for writebehind as well. If
write-behind has not been set or the LV is not RAID1, the field will
be blank.
Example (writebehind is set):
[~]# lvs -a -o name,attr,writebehind vg
LV Attr WBehind
lv rwi-a-r-- 512
[lv_rimage_0] iwi-aor-w
[lv_rimage_1] iwi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_0] ewi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_1] ewi-aor--
Example (writebehind is not set):
[~]# lvs -a -o name,attr,writebehind vg
LV Attr WBehind
lv rwi-a-r--
[lv_rimage_0] iwi-aor-w
[lv_rimage_1] iwi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_0] ewi-aor--
[lv_rmeta_1] ewi-aor--
Revert commit 31c24dd9f2. This commit
was used to force a RAID device-mapper table to be loaded into the
kernel despite the fact that it was identical to the one already
loaded. The effect allowed a RAID array with a transiently failed
device to refresh and reintegrate the failed device. This operation
is better done in the kernel on a 'resume'. Since,
'lvchange --refresh' already performs a suspend/resume cycle, the
above commit is not needed once the kernel change is made. Reverting
the commit removes an unnecessary (at least for now) change to the
device-mapper interface.
I've updated the dm_status_raid structure and dm_get_status_raid()
function to make it handle the new kernel status fields that will
be coming in dm-raid v1.5.0. It is backwards compatible with the
old status line - initializing the new fields to '0'. The new
structure is also more amenable to future changes. It includes a
'reserved' field that is currently initialized to zero but could
be used to hold flags describing new features. It also now uses
pointers for the character strings instead of attempting to allocate
their space along with the structure (causing the size of the
structure to be variable). This allows future fields to be appended.
The new fields that are available are:
- sync_action : shows what the sync thread in the kernel is doing
(idle, frozen, resync, recover, check, repair, or
reshape)
- mismatch_count: shows the number of discrepancies which were
found or repaired by a "check" or "repair"
process, respectively.
Previous commit included changes to WHATSNEW, but the code changes
were missing. Here is the description from the previous commit:
commit bbc6378b73
Author: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com>
Date: Thu Feb 21 11:31:36 2013 -0600
RAID: Make 'lvchange --refresh' restore transiently failed RAID PVs
A new function (dm_tree_node_force_identical_table_reload) was added to
avoid the suppression of identical table reloads. This allows RAID LVs
to reload the on-disk superblock information that contains which devices
have failed and the bitmaps. If the failed device has returned, this has
the effect of restoring the device and initiating recovery. Without this
patch, the user had to completely deactivate their RAID LV and re-activate
it in order to restore the failed device. Now they simply need to
suspend and resume (which is done by 'lvchange --refresh').
The identical table suppression is only avoided if the LV is not PARTAIL
(i.e. all of it's devices can be seen and read by LVM) and the kernel
status of the array contains failed devices. In other words, the function
will only be called in the case where we may have success in restoring
a failed device in the array.
Similar to the way thin* accesses its kernel status, we add a method
for RAID to grab the various values in its status output without the
higher levels (LVM) having to understand how to parse the output.
Added functions include:
- lib/activate/dev_manager.c:dev_manager_raid_status()
Pulls the status line from the kernel
- libdm/libdm-deptree.c:dm_get_status_raid()
Parses status line and puts components into dm_status_raid struct
- lib/activate/activate.c:lv_raid_dev_health()
Accesses dm_status_raid to deliver raid dev_health string
The new structure and functions can provide a more unified way to access
status information. ('lv_raid_percent' could switch to using these
functions, for example.)
If the resume of preloaded node fails, do not leave such
node in the table - since it may not be easy to detach such
node later when the node is i.e. internal.
i.e. failing activation of the thin pool with mismatching
chunk size may leave -tpool device in the table, which
could have been then removed only by dmsetup command.
Patch clears the flag if thin pool is stacked over mirror.
Since thin pool could be used to stack device over mirrors,
it needs resume properly i.e. mirrors with corelog which are otherwise
unconditionally skipped (for pvmove functionality).
