This is per VG/LV profile loading on demand. The profile itself is saved
in struct volume_group/logical_volume as "profile" field so we can
reference it whenever needed.
A helper type that helps with identification of the configuration source
which makes handling the configuration cascade a bit easier, mainly
removing and adding configuration trees to cascade dynamically.
Currently, the possible types are:
CONFIG_UNDEFINED - configuration is not defined yet (not initialized)
CONFIG_FILE - one file configuration
CONFIG_MERGED_FILES - configuration that is a result of merging more files into one
CONFIG_STRING - configuration string typed on cmd line directly
CONFIG_PROFILE - profile configuration (the new type of configuration, patches will follow...)
Also, generalize existing "remove_overridden_config_tree" to work with
configuration type identification in a cascade. Before, it was just
the CONFIG_STRING we used. Now, we need some more to add in a
cascade (like the CONFIG_PROFILE). So, we have:
struct dm_config_tree *remove_config_tree_by_source(struct cmd_context *cmd, config_source_t source);
config_source_t config_get_source_type(struct dm_config_tree *cft);
... for removing the tree by its source type from the cascade and
simply getting the source type.
In the last update not all code paths have set the archived flag.
If we run in test mode or without archiving enabled - set the bit
as well - so test whether archiving has been called succesfully
will be ok. (in relase fix).
Do not keep multiple archives for the executed command.
Reuse the ALLOCATABLE_PV from pv status for
ARCHIVED_VG vg status. Mark VG with the bit with the
first archivation.
...not the other way round as it was before. This way it makes
more sense as BA use is exceptional and it's useless to
contaminate the log with messages about BA not being found
in metadata.
When vgname has not existed in metadata, it has crashed on double free
in format_instance destroy() - since VG was created, used FID and was
released - which also released FID, so further use was accessing bad
memory.
Fix it for this code path before release_vg() so FID will exists
when _vg_read_file_name() returns NULL.
'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--
For example, the old call and reference:
find_config_tree_str(cmd, "devices/dir", DEFAULT_DEV_DIR)
...now becomes:
find_config_tree_str(cmd, devices_dir_CFG)
So we're referring to the named configuration ID instead
of passing the configuration path and the default value
is taken from central config definition in config_settings.h
automatically.
Just to prevent accidental and improper use when reading the layout
from disk because of the already existing disk_areas_xl[0] lists
that are variable in size. We can read pv_header_extension only
after we know exactly where the lists end...
The PV header extension information (PV header extension version, flags
and list of Embedding Area locations) is stored just beyond the PV header base.
When calculating the Embedding Area start value (ea_start), the same logic is
used as when calculating the pe_start value for Data Area - the value must
follow exactly the same alignment restrictions for its start value
(the alignment detected automatically or provided via command line using
the --dataalignment and --dataalignmentoffset arguments).
The Embedding Area is placed at the very start of the PV, starting at
ea_start. The Data Area starting at pe_start is placed next. The pe_start is
still properly aligned. Due to the pe_start alignment, it's possible that the
resulting Embedding Area size (ea_size) ends up bigger in size than requested
(but never less than requested).
New tools with PV header extension support will read the extension
if it exists and it's not an error if it does not exist (so old PVs
will still work seamlessly with new tools).
Old tools without PV header extension support will just ignore any
extension.
As for the Embedding Area location information (its start and size),
there are actually two places where this is stored:
- PV header extension
- VG metadata
The VG metadata contains a copy of what's written in the PV header
extension about the Embedding Area location (NULL value is not copied):
physical_volumes {
pv0 {
id = "AkSSRf-difg-fCCZ-NjAN-qP49-1zzg-S0Fd4T"
device = "/dev/sda" # Hint only
status = ["ALLOCATABLE"]
flags = []
dev_size = 262144 # 128 Megabytes
pe_start = 67584
pe_count = 23 # 92 Megabytes
ea_start = 2048
ea_size = 65536 # 32 Megabytes
}
}
The new metadata fields are "ea_start" and "ea_size".
This is mostly useful when restoring the PV by using existing
metadata backups (e.g. pvcreate --restorefile ...).
New tools does not require these two fields to exist in VG metadata,
they're not compulsory. Therefore, reading old VG metadata which doesn't
contain any Embedding Area information will not end up with any kind
of error but only a debug message that the ea_start and ea_size values
were not found.
Old tools just ignore these extra fields in VG metadata.
PV header extension comes just beyond the existing PV header base:
PV header base (existing):
- uuid
- device size
- null-terminated list of Data Areas
- null-terminater list of MetaData Areas
PV header extension:
- extension version
- flags
- null-terminated list of Embedding Areas
This patch also adds "eas" (Embedding Areas) list to lvmcache (lvmcache_info)
and it also adds support for common operations on the list (just like for
already existing "das" - Data Areas list):
- lvmcache_add_ea
- lvmcache_update_eas
- lvmcache_foreach_ea
- lvmcache_del_eas
Also, add ea_start and ea_size to struct physical_volume for processing
PV Embedding Area location throughout the code (currently only one
Embedding Area is supported, though the definition on disk allows for
more if needed in the future...).
Also, define FMT_EAS format flag to mark that the format actually
supports Embedding Areas (currently format-text only).
If zero metadata copies are used, there's no further recalculation of
PV alignment that happens when adding metadata areas to the PV and
which actually calculates the alignment correctly as a matter of fact.
So fix this for "PV without MDA" case as well.
Before this patch:
[1] raw/~ # pvcreate --dataalignment 8m --dataalignmentoffset 4m
--metadatacopies 1 /dev/sda
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
[1] raw/~ # pvs -o pv_name,pe_start
PV 1st PE
/dev/sda 12.00m
[1] raw/~ # pvcreate --dataalignment 8m --dataalignmentoffset 4m
--metadatacopies 0 /dev/sda
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
[1] raw/~ # pvs -o pv_name,pe_start
PV 1st PE
/dev/sda 8.00m
After this patch:
[1] raw/~ # pvcreate --dataalignment 8m --dataalignmentoffset 4m
--metadatacopies 1 /dev/sda
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
[1] raw/~ # pvs -o pv_name,pe_start
PV 1st PE
/dev/sda 12.00m
[1] raw/~ # pvcreate --dataalignment 8m --dataalignmentoffset 4m
--metadatacopies 0 /dev/sda
Physical volume "/dev/sda" successfully created
[1] raw/~ # pvs -o pv_name,pe_start
PV 1st PE
/dev/sda 12.00m
Also, remove a superfluous condition "pv->pe_start < pv->pe_align" in:
if (pe_start == PV_PE_START_CALC && pv->pe_start < pv->pe_align)
pv->pe_start = pv->pe_align ...
This part of the condition is not reachable as with the PV_PE_START_CALC,
we always have pv->pe_start set to 0 from the PV struct initialisation
(...the pv->pe_start value is just being calculated).
Allow restoring metadata with thin pool volumes.
No validation is done for this case within vgcfgrestore tool -
thus incorrect metadata may lead to destruction of pool content.
Use log_warn to print non-fatal warning messages.
Use of log_error would confuse checker for testing
whether proper error has been reported for some real error.
We were using daemon_send_simple until now, but it is no longer adequate, since
we need to manipulate requests in a generic way (adding a validity token to each
request), and the tree-based request interface is much more suitable for this.
Add 3rd daemon return state "unknown" for lookups that are carried out
successfully but don't find the item requested.
Avoid issuing error messages when it's expected that a device that's
being looked up in lvmetad might not be there.
Make sure both hash tables are initialized before _read_sections() call.
Presents no functional change (since PV scan phase was not adding LV hashes),
but makes the code easier to handle mem failing case, and static analyzer is
hapier as well.
Adding at least stack traces with some FIXMEs for cases,
where we might want to do something cleaver - maybe fail command
or give user hints something is not going well ?
For remote_backup is stack probably 'good' enough for now.
Move commod code to destroy orphan VG into free_orphan_vg() function.
Use orphan vgmem for creation of PV lists.
Remove some free_pv_fid() calls (FIXME: check all of them)
FIXME: Check whether we could merge release_vg back again for all VGs.
Basic support to keep info when the LV was created.
Host and time is stored into LV mda section.
FIXME: Current version doesn't support configurable string via lvm.conf
and used fixed version strftime "%Y-%m-%d %T %z".
RAID is not like traditional LVM mirroring. LVM mirroring required failed
devices to be removed or the logical volume would simply hang. RAID arrays can
keep on running with failed devices. In fact, for RAID types other than RAID1,
removing a device would mean substituting an error target or converting to a
lower level RAID (e.g. RAID6 -> RAID5, or RAID4/5 to RAID0). Therefore, rather
than removing a failed device unconditionally and potentially allocating a
replacement, RAID allows the user to "replace" a device with a new one. This
approach is a 1-step solution vs the current 2-step solution.
example> lvconvert --replace <dev_to_remove> vg/lv [possible_replacement_PVs]
'--replace' can be specified more than once.
example> lvconvert --replace /dev/sdb1 --replace /dev/sdc1 vg/lv
Use static buffer instead of stack allocated buffer.
This reduces stack size usage of lvm tool and the
change is very simple.
Since the whole library is not thread safe - it should not
add any new problems - and if there will be some conversion
it's easy to convert this to use some preallocated buffer.
When a PV label write is deferred to a vg_write call (as introduced by a patch
in 2.02.86), the PV is flagged with the internal UNLABELLED_PV flag. However,
when calling vg_archive before vg_write, we still have the PV labelled with the
UNLABELLED_PV flag which was not recognised as a proper flag while exporting
VG metadata:
# vgcreate vg /dev/sda
No physical volume label read from /dev/sda
Metadata inconsistency: Not all flags successfully exported.
Metadata inconsistency: Not all flags successfully exported.
Writing physical volume data to disk "/dev/sda"

Volume group "vg" successfully created
functionality. A number of bugs (copied and pasted all over the code) should
disappear:
- most string lookup based on dm_config_find_node would segfault when
encountering a non-zero integer (the intention there was to print an
error message instead)
- check for required sections in metadata would have been satisfied by
values as well (i.e. not sections)
- encountering a section in place of expected flag value would have
segfaulted (due to assumed but unchecked cn->v != NULL)
leaving behind the LVM-specific parts of the code (convenience wrappers that
handle `struct device` and `struct cmd_context`, basically). A number of
functions have been renamed (in addition to getting a dm_ prefix) -- namely,
all of the config interface now has a dm_config_ prefix.
There's a very high memory usage when calling _pv_analyse_mda_raw (e.g. while
executing pvck) that can end up with "out of memory".
_pv_analyse_mda_raw scans for metadata in the MDA, iteratively increasing the
size to scan with SECTOR_SIZE until we find a probable config section or we're
at the edge of the metadata area. However, when using a memory pool, we're also
iteratively chasing for bigger and bigger mempool chunk which can't be found
and so we're always allocating a new one, consuming more and more memory...
This patch just changes the mempool to direct memory allocation in this
problematic part of the code.
Move the free_vg() to vg.c and replace free_vg with release_vg
and make the _free_vg internal.
Patch is needed for sharing VG in vginfo cache so the release_vg function name
is a better fit here.
Implementation described in doc/lvm2-raid.txt.
Basic support includes:
- ability to create RAID 1/4/5/6 arrays
- ability to delete RAID arrays
- ability to display RAID arrays
Notable missing features (not included in this patch):
- ability to clean-up/repair failures
- ability to convert RAID segment types
- ability to monitor RAID segment types
It's useful to keep the partial flag cached - so just move the call
for vg_mark_partil_lvs() into import_vg_from_config_tree() so it gets
evaluated before it goes through the lvmcache.
This patch should not present any functional change.
Note: It is rather temporal solution - proper place is probably inside the
'read' call back - but needs some more discussion.
For now using this minor hack.
transient error), stemming from the following sequence of events:
1) devices fail IO, triggering repair
2) dmeventd starts fixing up the mirror
3) during the downconversion, a new metadata version is written
--> the devices come back online here
4) the mirror device suspend/resume is called to update DM tables
5) during the suspend/resume cycle, *pre*-commit metadata is read;
however, since the failed devices are now back online, we get back
inconsistent set of precommit metadata and the whole operation fails
The patch relaxes the check that fails in step 5 above, namely by ignoring
inconsistencies coming from PVs that are marked MISSING.
Before, we used vg_write_lock_held call to determnine the way a device is
opened. Unfortunately, this opened many devices in RW mode when it was not
really necessary. With the OPTIONS+="watch" rule used in the udev rules,
this could fire numerous events while closing such devices (and it caused
useless scans from within udev rules in return).
A common bug we hit with this was with the lvremove command which was unable
to remove the LV since it was being opened from within the udev rules. This
patch should minimize such situations (at least with respect to LVM handling
of devices).
Though there's still a possibility someone will open a device 'outside' in
parallel and fire the event based on the watch rule when closing a device
once opened for RW.
Avoid using of already released memory when duplicated MDA is found.
As get_pv_from_vg_by_id() may call lvmcache_label_scan() use the local copy
of the vgname and vgid on the stack as vginfo may dissapear and code was
then accessing garbage in memory.
i.e. pvs /dev/loop0

Add testing script
As code uses strncpy(system_id, NAME_LEN) and doesn't set '\0'
Fix it by always allocating NAME_LEN + 1 buffer size and with zalloc
we always get '\0' as the last byte.
This bug may trigger some unexpected behavior of the string operation
code - depends on the pool allocator.
FIXME: refactor this code to alloc_vg.
Missing free_vg on error_path in lvmcache_get_vg fn. Call destroy_instance
only if the fid is not part of the vg in backup_read_vg fn (otherwise it's
part of the VG we're returning and we definitely don't want to destroy it!).
This is essential for proper format instance ref_count support. We must
use these functions to set the fid everywhere from now on, even the NULL
value!
We'd like to use the fid mempool for text_context that is stored
in the instance (we used cmd mempool before, so the order of
initialisation was not a matter, but now it is since we need to
create the fid mempool first which happens in create_instance fn).
The text_context initialisation is not needed anywhere outside the
create_instance fn so move it there.
Format instances can be created anytime on demand and it contains
metadata area information mostly (at least for now, but in the future,
we may store more things here to update/edit in a PV/VG). In case we
have lots of metadata areas, memory consumption will rise. Using cmd
context mempool is not quite optimal here because it is destroyed too
late. So let's use a separate mempool for format instances.
Reference counting is used because fids could be shared, e.g. each PV
has either a PV-based fid or VG-based fid. If it's VG-based, each PV has
a shared fid with the VG - a reference to VG's fid.
Create new function alloc_vg() to allocate VG structure.
It takes pool_name (for easier debugging).
and also take vg_name to futher simplify code.
Move remainder of _build_vg_from_pds to _pool_vg_read
and use vg memory pool for import functions.
(it's been using smem -> fid mempool -> cmd mempool)
(FIXME: remove mempool parameter for import functions and use vg).
Move remainder of the _build_vg to _format1_vg_read
We allow writing non-orphan PVs only for resize now. The "orphan PV" assert
in pv_write fn uses the "allow_non_orphan" parameter to control this assert.
However, we should find a more elaborate solution so we can remove this
restriction altogether (pv_write together with vg_write is not atomic, we
need to find a safe mechanism so there's an easy revert possible in case of
an error).
Add a small fix that preserves pe_start for lvm1 PVs when being converted.
(this fix needs to be replaced with something more clever, but let's have this working now)
If the PV is already part of the VG (so the pv->fid == vg->fid), it makes no
sense to attach the mdas information from PV to a VG. Instead, we read new
PV metadata information from cache and attach it to the VG fid.
