2db34bd266 INSTALL rules updates
Patch is inspired by Debian's extra patch.

- removes OWNER & GROUP make vars they are parts of INSTALL command.
- adds INSTALL_PROGRAM for executable, uses $(INSTALL)
- adds INSTALL_DATA for non-executable data, uses ($INSTALL)
- adds INSTALL_WDATA for writable non-executable data, uses ($INSTALL)
- adds configure option --enable-write_install - to support
  installatin of writable files used by distribution
- replaces usage of ifeq @LIB_SUFFIX@ with $(LIB_SUFFIX)
- installs .a files from static builds without executable flag
- installs .a files to $(usrlibdir) instead of $(libdir)
- installs all static binaries to $(staticdir)
- create .so links for devel package in $(usrlibdir) instead of
  $(libdir)
- makes .so and .so.LIB_VERSION files within builddir
- removes VERSIONED_SHLIB and created versioned LIB_SHARED automagicaly
- install LIB_SHARED via install_lib_shared target
- install plugins via install_lib_shared_plugin target
- prints whole 'install' command during installation instead of less
  informative "Installing  $(something) $(somewhere)"
- install multiple man pages with one INSTALL command
- use DISTCLEAN_TARGETS instead of creating multiple distclean targets

f3491d93a0 Use vpath instead of VPATH.
Usage of VPATH makes troubles when used within $(builddir).
Not only source files are being found through VPATH,
but targets as well. (make --debug=v)

Thus if user builds the code in $(srcdir) and also in some $(builddir)
he gets mangled results as some generated files (i.e. .export.sym)
are 'reused' from $(srcdir) instead of $(builddir).

This patch switches to use vpath were we could explicitly name
suffixes that should be looked via vpath - we must take care,
we do not generate files with these suffixes:
.c, .in, .po, .exported_symbols

3318c41356 Add ability to create mirrored logs for mirror LVs.
This check-in enables the 'mirrored' log type.  It can be specified
by using the '--mirrorlog' option as follows:
#> lvcreate -m1 --mirrorlog mirrored -L 5G -n lv vg

I've also included a couple updates to the testsuite.  These updates
include tests for the new log type, and some fixes to some of the
*lvconvert* tests.

3e5a54a791 lvconvert --merge @tag support
Switch lvconvert's --merge code over to using process_each_lv().  Doing
so adds support for a single 'lvconvert --merge' to start merging
multiple LVs (which includes @tag expansion).

Add 'lvconvert --merge @tag' testing to test/t-snapshot-merge.sh

Adjust man/lvconvert.8.in to reflect these expanded capabilities.

The lvconvert.c implementation requires rereading the VG each iteration
of process_each_lv().  Otherwise a stale VG instance associated with
the LV passed to lvconvert_single_merge() would result in stale VG
metadata being written back out to disk.  This overwrote new metadata
that was written when a previous snapshot LV finished merging (via
lvconvert_poll).  This is only an issue when merging multiple LVs that
share the same VG (a single VG is typical for most LVM configurations on
system disks).

In the end this new support is very useful for performing a "system
rollback" that requires multiple snapshot LVs be merged to their
respective origin LV.

The yum-utils 'fs-snapshot' plugin tags all snapshot LVs that it creates
with a common 'snapshot_tag' that is unique to the yum transaction.
Rolling back a yum transaction, that created LVM snapshots with the tag
'yum_20100129133223', is as simple as:
  lvconvert --merge @yum_20100129133223

ab7ad3451d Report merging snapshot as 'S' instead of 's':
This is useful for when the snapshot is still active and merging hasn't
started yet; it shows a merge is pending.  Once merging starts the
merging snapshot will be hidden but can still be displayed with 'lvs -a'

Report snapshot origin with merging snapshot as 'O' instead of 'o':
Before merge starts this shows that a merge is pending.  While merging
the snapshot will be hidden, 'O' enables a user to see that there is a
snapshot merging.

d5a3de5a97 This patch adds the capability to split off a mirror legs.
It is pretty much the same as reducing the number of
mirror legs, but we just don't delete them afterwards.

The following command line interface is enforced:
  prompt> lvconvert --splitmirror <n> -n <name> <VG>/<LV>
where 'n' is the number of images to split off, and
where 'name' is the name of the newly split off logical volume.

If more than one leg is split off, a new mirror will be the
result.  The newly split off mirror will have a 'core' log.
Example:
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# !lvs
lvs -a -o name,copy_percent,devices
  LV            Copy%  Devices
  lv            100.00 lv_mimage_0(0),lv_mimage_1(0),lv_mimage_2(0),lv_mimage_3(0)
  [lv_mimage_0]        /dev/sdb1(0)
  [lv_mimage_1]        /dev/sdc1(0)
  [lv_mimage_2]        /dev/sdd1(0)
  [lv_mimage_3]        /dev/sde1(0)
  [lv_mlog]            /dev/sdi1(0)
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# lvconvert --splitmirrors 2 --name split vg/lv /dev/sd[ce]1
  Logical volume lv converted.
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# !lvs
lvs -a -o name,copy_percent,devices
  LV               Copy%  Devices
  lv               100.00 lv_mimage_0(0),lv_mimage_2(0)
  [lv_mimage_0]           /dev/sdb1(0)
  [lv_mimage_2]           /dev/sdd1(0)
  [lv_mlog]               /dev/sdi1(0)
  split            100.00 split_mimage_0(0),split_mimage_1(0)
  [split_mimage_0]        /dev/sde1(0)
  [split_mimage_1]        /dev/sdc1(0)

It can be seen that '--splitmirror <n>' is exactly the same
as '--mirrors -<n>' (note the minus sign), except there is the
additional notion to keep the image being detached from the
mirror instead of just throwing it away.

7a4fa925fc Add a [--poll {y|n}] flag to vgchange and lvchange to control whether
the background polldaemon is allowed to start.  It can be used
standalone or in conjunction with --refresh or --available y.

Control over when the background polldaemon starts will be particularly
important for snapshot-merge of a root filesystem.

Dracut will be updated to activate all LVs with: --poll n

The lvm2-monitor initscript will start polling with: --poll y

NOTE: Because we currently have no way of knowing if a background
polldaemon is active for a given LV the following limitations exist and
have been deemed acceptable:
1) it is not possible to stop an active polldaemon; so the lvm2-monitor
   initscript doesn't stop running polldaemon(s)
2) redundant polldaemon instances will be started for all specified LVs
   if vgchange or lvchange are repeatedly used with '--poll y'

4257485ff2 Add --pvmetadatacopies as a synonym for --metadatacopies in various commands.
Going forward, we would like to allow users to specify the total
number of metadatacopies in a VG rather than on a per-PV basis.  In
order to facilitate that, introduce --pvmetadatacopes to replace
--metadatacopies everywhere.  We still allow --metadatacopies for
pv commands, but require --pvmetadatacopies for vg commands.
Eventually we will introduce --vgmetadatacopies.  Once we do that,
we should either deprecate --metadatacopies or make it a synonym based
on the command (pvmetadatacopies for pv commands, and vgmetadatacopies
for vg commands).  The latter option would likely just require a simple
'strncpy' check against cmd->command->name to qualify the merge_synonym
call.

Update nightly tests to cover the pvmetadatacopies synonym.

Note that this patch is the result of an eariler review comment for
the implicit pvcreate patches.  Should apply cleanly on top of the
implicit pvcreate patches (I applied after patch 10/10 in that series).

NOTE: This patch will require --pvmetadatacopies for vgconvert as
--metadatacopies is no longer accepted.
