Add a field to struct volume_group to later implement metadata
balancing:
- mda_copies: target # of non-ignored mdas in the VG; default 0 (do
not control pv 'ignore mdas' bit.
This patch just adds the parameter to the structures with the default
values but does not modify any commands. Should be no functional change.

This patch adds a new implementation of locking function instead
of mlockall() that may lock way too much memory (>100MB).
New function instead uses mlock() system call and selectively locks
memory areas from /proc/self/maps trying to avoid locking areas
unused during lock-ed state.
Patch also adds struct cmd_context to all memlock() calls to have
access to configuration.
For backward compatibility functionality of mlockall()
is preserved with "activation/use_mlockall" flag.
As a simple check, locking and unlocking counts the amount of memory
and compares whether values are matching.
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'

Add configure --enable-units-compat to set si_unit_consistency off by default.
Use standard output units for 'PE Size' and 'Stripe size' in pv/lvdisplay.
Adds 'data_alignment_detection' config option to the devices section of
lvm.conf. If your kernel provides topology information in sysfs (linux
>= 2.6.31) for the Physical Volume, the start of data area will be
aligned on a multiple of the ’minimum_io_size’ or ’optimal_io_size’
exposed in sysfs.
minimum_io_size is used if optimal_io_size is undefined (0). If both
md_chunk_alignment and data_alignment_detection are enabled the result
of data_alignment_detection is used.

If the pvcreate --dataalignmentoffset option is not specified the start
of a PV's aligned data area will be shifted by the associated
'alignment_offset' exposed in sysfs (unless
devices/data_alignment_offset_detection is disabled in lvm.conf).

If there is syntax error in metadata, it now prints messages
like:
Couldn't read 'start_extent' for segment 'extent_count'.
Couldn't read all logical volumes for volume group vg_test.
The segment specification is wrong and confusing.
Patch fixes it by introducing "parent" member in config_node which
points to parent section and config_parent_name function, which
provides pointer to node section name.
Also it adds several LV references where possible.
* lib/misc/lvm-file.c (lvm_fclose): New function.
* lib/misc/lvm-file.h (lvm_fclose): Declare it.
* lib/config/config.c (write_config_file): Use the new function to detect
and diagnose unlikely write failure.
* lib/filters/filter-persistent.c (persistent_filter_dump): Likewise.
* lib/format_text/archive.c (archive_vg): Likewise.
* lib/format_text/format-text.c (_vg_write_file): Likewise.
* lib/log/log.c (fin_log): Similar, but use dm_fclose directly.
Include "\n" at end of each fprintf format string.
config/config.c:493: warning: format '%d' expects type 'int', but argument 5 has type 'long int'
Modified original patch from Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
Add --config for overriding most config file settings from cmdline.
Quote arguments when printing command line.
Remove linefeed from 'initialising logging' message.
Add 'Completed' debug message.
Don't attempt library exit after reloading config files.
Always compile with libdevmapper, even if device-mapper is disabled.
Clear many compiler warnings (i386) & associated bugs - hopefully without
introducing too many new bugs:-) (Same exercise required for other archs.)
Default compilation has optimisation - or else use ./configure --enable-debug
Lots of changes/very little testing so far => there'll be bugs!
Use 'vgcreate -M text' to create a volume group with its metadata stored
in text files. Text format metadata changes should be reasonably atomic,
with a (basic) automatic recovery mechanism if the system crashes while a
change is in progress.
Add a metadata section to lvm.conf to specify multiple directories if
you want (recommended) to keep multiple copies of the metadata (eg on
different filesystems).
e.g. metadata {
dirs = ["/etc/lvm/metadata1","/usr/local/lvm/metadata2"]
}
Plenty of refinements still in the pipeline.
