When we are stacking LV over device, which has for some reason
increased read_ahead (e.g. MD RAID), the read_ahead hint
for libdevmapper is wrong (it is zero).
If the calculated read_ahead hint is zero, patch uses read_ahead of underlying device
(if first segment is PV) when setting DM_READ_AHEAD_MINIMUM_FLAG.
Because we are using dev-cache, it also store this value to cache for future use
(if several LVs are over one PV, BLKRAGET is called only once for underlying device.)
This should fix all the reamining problems with readahead mismatch reported
for DM over MD configurations (and similar cases).
We can temporarily violate max_lv during mirror conversion etc.
(If the operation fails, orphan mirror images are visible to administrator
for manual remove for example. Not that this should ever happen:-)
Force limit only for lvcreate (and vg merge) command.
Patch also adds simple max_lv tests into testsuite
The vg->lv_count parameter now includes always number of visible
logical volumes.
Note that virtual snapshot volume (snapshotX) is never visible,
but it is stored in metadata with visible flag.
link_lv_to_vg and unlink_lv_from_vg are the only functions
for adding/removing logical volume from volume group.
Only these function should manipulate with vg->lvs list.
The snapshot segment (snapshotX) is created twice
during the text metadata segment processing.
This can cause temporary violation of max_lv count.
Simplify the code, snapshot segment is properly initialized
in init_snapshot_seg function now and do not need to be replaced
by vg_add_snapshot call.
The vg_add_snapshot() is now usefull only for adding new
snapshot and it shares the same initialization function.
The snapshot name is always generated, name paramater can be
removed from function call.
The seg variable is temporary variable for list iterator,
code cannot expect that after iteration it remains NULL
(it contains non-NULL pointer here id list is empty).
Patch fixes first_seg function so it now correctly returns NULL
for empty segment list.
Add lvs origin_size field.
Fix linux configure --enable-debug to exclude -O2.
Still a few rough edges, but hopefully usable now:
lvcreate -s vg1 -L 100M --virtualoriginsize 1T
The backup() call store metadata from memory.
But in cluster backup() call performs
remote nodes metadata backup and it reads data from disk.
For metadata backup consistency,
patch moves all backup() calls after vg_commit.
(Moreover, some tools already do that this way.)
Since now, all code reading volume group is responsible for releasing
the memory allocated by calling vg_release(vg).
(For simplicity of use, vg_releae can be called for vg == NULL,
the same logic like free(NULL)).
Also providing simple macro for unlocking & releasing in one step,
tools usualy uses this approach.
The global memory pool (cmd->mem) should be used only for global
physical volume operations.
This patch have to be applied with all subsequent patches to complete
memory pool per vg logic.
Using separate memory pool has quite bit memory saving impact when
using large VGs, this is mainly needed when we have to use
preallocated and locked memory (and should not overflow from that
memory space).
The all_pvs list, used in vg_read, should make its own private
copy of pv structures, otherwise (when vg will use its own pool)
it will point to released memory pool.
The same applies for get_pvs() call.
Patch adds pv_list copy helper and adds explicit memory pool
parameter into _copy_pv.
(Please note that all these helper functions cannot guarantee that
vg related fields are valid - proper vg read & lock must be used
if it is requested.)
Patch fixes these problems:
- during the snapshot creation process, it needs create 2 LVs,
one is cow, second becomes snapshot.
If the code fails in vg_add_snapshot, code lvcreate will not remove
LV cow volume.
- if max_lv is set and VG contains snapshot, it can happen that
during the activation lv_count is temporarily increased over the limit
and VG metadata are not properly processed
see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=490298
- vgcfgrestore alows restore with max_lv set to lower valuer that actual
LV count. This later leads to situation that max_lv is completely ignored.
- vgck doesn't call vg_validate(). It should at least try:-)

This patch is not fully tested and leaves some related bugs unfixed.
Intended behaviour of the code now:
pe_start in the lvm2 format PV label header is set only by pvcreate (or
vgconvert -M2) and then preserved in *all* operations thereafter.
In some specialist cases, after the PV is added to a VG, the pe_start
field in the VG metadata may hold a different value and if so, it
overrides the other one for as long as the PV is in such a VG.
Currently, the field storing the size of the data area in the PV label
header always holds 0. As it only has meaning in the context of a
volume group, it is calculated whenever the PV is added to a VG (and can
be derived from extent_size and pe_count in the VG metadata).
Reports the size of the smallest metadata area in a PV or a VG.
Useful to confirm pvcreate --metadatasize or pvmetadatasize setting in
/etc/lvm/lvm.conf file.
NOTE: Actual value in these fields will most always differ from that
given in pvcreate options due to rounding and alignment effects.
pvcreate $DEV
vgcreate -s 1k vg_test $DEV
lvcreate -l 1 -n lv1 vg_test
..
/dev/vg_test/lv1: write failed after 1024 of 4096 at 0: No space left on device
Just check for maximum write size in set_lv.
It fails for 1k PE now.
Patch adds log_region_size into allocation habdle struct
and use it in _alloc_parallel_area() for proper log size calculation
instead of hardcoded 1 extent - which can fail.
Reproducer for incorrect log size calculation:
DEV=/dev/sd[bcd]
pvcreate $DEV
vgcreate -s 1k vg_test $DEV
lvcreate -m1 -L 12M -n mirr vg_test
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477040
The log size calculation is mostly copied from kernel code.
(Avoids having same mirror table loaded twice concurrently by first
using a 'zero' table to set the size of the device so when mirror
table is preloaded it doesn't have to be activated immediately.)
