To avoid polution of metadata with some 'garbage' content or eventualy
some leak of stale data in case user want to upload metadata somewhere,
ensure upon allocation the metadata device is fully zeroed.
Behaviour may slow down allocation of thin-pool or cache-pool a bit
so the old behaviour can be restored with lvm.conf setting:
allocation/zero_metadata=0
TODO: add zeroing for extension of metadata volume.
Before 'archive()' is called, lvm2 must not touch/modify metadata.
So move setting CACHE_VOL related flags past this point.
Also make sure reading of cache segtype always restores this
flag properly (even if compatible flag would be lost).
A cachevol LV had the CACHE_VOL status flag in metadata,
and the cache LV using it had no new flag. This caused
problems if the new metadata was used by an old version
of lvm. An old version of lvm would have two problems
processing the new metadata:
. The old lvm would return an error when reading the VG
metadata when it saw the unknown CACHE_VOL status flag.
. The old lvm would return an error when reading the VG
metadata because it would not find an expected cache pool
attached to the cache LV (since the cache LV had a
cachevol attached instead.)
Change the use of flags:
. Change the CACHE_VOL flag to be a COMPATIBLE flag (instead
of a STATUS flag) so that old versions will not fail when
they see it.
. When a cache LV is using a cachevol, the cache LV gets
a new SEGTYPE flag CACHE_USES_CACHEVOL. This flag is
appended to the segtype name, so that old lvm versions
will fail to use the LV because of an unknown segtype,
as opposed to failing to read the VG.
Different flavors of activate_lv() and lv_is_active()
which are meaningful in a clustered VG can be eliminated
and replaced with whatever that flavor already falls back
to in a local VG.
e.g. lv_is_active_exclusive_locally() is distinct from
lv_is_active() in a clustered VG, but in a local VG they
are equivalent. So, all instances of the variant are
replaced with the basic local equivalent.
For local VGs, the same behavior remains as before.
For shared VGs, lvmlockd was written with the explicit
requirement of local behavior from these functions
(lvmlockd requires locking_type 1), so the behavior
in shared VGs also remains the same.
As we start refactoring the code to break dependencies (see doc/refactoring.txt),
I want us to use full paths in the includes (eg, #include "base/data-struct/list.h").
This makes it more obvious when we're breaking abstraction boundaries, eg, including a file in
metadata/ from base/
Use properly exclusive activation when reactivating origin after
snapshot merge (since origin must have been previously also exlusively
activated).
Same applies when converting volumes to thin-pool or cache.
Previously used 'only' local activation incorrectly allowed local
activation of some targets (i.e. raid) - thus 'leaking' chance to
activate same device on another node - which can be a problem
for device types like raid.
As now we can properly recognize all paramerters for pool creation,
we may drop PASS_ARG_ defines and rely on '_UNSELECTED' or 0 entries
as being those without user given args.
When setting are not given on command line - 'update' function
fill them from profiles or configuration. For this 'profile' arg
was needed to be passed around and since 'VG' itself is not needed,
it's been all replaced with 'cmd, profile, extents_size' args.
Add support for making an interconnection between thin LV segment and
its indirect origin (which may be historical or live LV) - add a new
"indirect_origin" argument to attach_pool_lv function.
When an LV is being removed, we create an instance of
"struct historical_logical_volume" wrapped up in
"struct generic_logical_volume".
All instances of "struct historical_logical_volume" are then recorded in
"historical_lvs" list which is part of "struct volume_group".
The "historical LV" is then interconnected with "live LVs" to
connect a history chain for the live LV.
This would be in case the pool segment was not found.
LVM2.2.02.112/lib/metadata/pool_manip.c:238:36: warning: Access to field 'segtype' results in a dereference of a null pointer (loaded from variable 'pool_seg')
Move code for creation of thin volume into a single place
out of lv_extend(). This allows to drop extra pool arg
for alloc_lv_segment() && lv_extend() and makes code
more easier to read and follow.
Move test for size of new LV names in front before
any creation of LV.
Properly check striped segtype kernel presence,
since passed 'segtype' is already tested.
Keep deactivation error path local to wiping part of the function.
Create metadata with temporary flag (it's activated, zeroed
and deactivated).
Instead of segtype->ops->name() introduce lvseg_name().
This also allows us to leave name() function 'empty' for default
return of segtype->name.
TODO: add functions for rest of ops->
Introduce pool function for validation of chunk size.
It's good idea to be able to reject invalid chunk size
when entered on command line before we open VG.
Fix get_pool_params to only read params.
Add poolmetadataspare option to get_pool_params.
Move all profile code into update_pool_params.
Move recalculate code into pool_manip.c
Since the usability problem were fixed, we can use this function.
Cleanup orphan LVs with TEMPORARY flags
(reduces couple blkid error reports, but couple of them
is still left...)
When we create thin-pool we have used trick to keep
volume active, but since we now support TEMPORARY flag,
we could just localy active & deactive metadata LV,
and let the thinpool through normal activation process.
