Introduce LVM_TEST_LVMETAD_DEBUG_OPTS to allow to override
default debug opts for lvmetad.
However could be still overloaded on command line:
make check_lvmetad LVM_TEST_LVMETAD_DEBUG_OPTS="-l all"...
some tests left dangling bg processes originating in
lvm2 commands being able to spawn any bg polling process
(lvchange, vgchange, pvmove, lvconvert...)
Initial fn 'add_to_kill_list' should collect processes with
specific parameters (proc's command line and parent processes ID).
After testing finishes the fn kill_listed_processes should remove these
listed by 'add_to_kill_list'.
Unfortunately it proved to be prone to an error especially in scenarios
where cmd line of initiating command contained characters required to
be espaced before passing to shell script to make it work correctly.
(Or if cmd spawned more than one bg process with same cmd line. i.e.:
vgchange or lvchange).
The new implementation is much simpler. It uses env. variable (LVM_TEST_TAG)
for marking a process desired to be killed later or during test env. teardown.
(i.e.: LVM_TEST_TAG=kill_me_$PREFIX to kill only processes related to
current test environment)
pvmove can be used to move single LVs by name or multiple LVs that
lie within the specified PV range (e.g. /dev/sdb1:0-1000). When
moving more than one LV, the portions of those LVs that are in the
range to be moved are added to a new temporary pvmove LV. The LVs
then point to the range in the pvmove LV, rather than the PV
range.
Example 1:
We have two LVs in this example. After they were
created, the first LV was grown, yeilding two segments
in LV1. So, there are two LVs with a total of three
segments.
Before pvmove:
--------- --------- ---------
| LV1s0 | | LV2s0 | | LV1s1 |
--------- --------- ---------
| | |
-------------------------------------
PV | 000 - 255 | 256 - 511 | 512 - 767 |
-------------------------------------
After pvmove inserts the temporary pvmove LV:
--------- --------- ---------
| LV1s0 | | LV2s0 | | LV1s1 |
--------- --------- ---------
| | |
-------------------------------------
pvmove0 | seg 0 | seg 1 | seg 2 |
-------------------------------------
| | |
-------------------------------------
PV | 000 - 255 | 256 - 511 | 512 - 767 |
-------------------------------------
Each of the affected LV segments now point to a
range of blocks in the pvmove LV, which purposefully
corresponds to the segments moved from the original
LVs into the temporary pvmove LV.
The current implementation goes on from here to mirror the temporary
pvmove LV by segment. Further, as the pvmove LV is activated, only
one of its segments is actually mirrored (i.e. "moving") at a time.
The rest are either complete or not addressed yet. If the pvmove
is aborted, those segments that are completed will remain on the
destination and those that are not yet addressed or in the process
of moving will stay on the source PV. Thus, it is possible to have
a partially completed move - some LVs (or certain segments of LVs)
on the source PV and some on the destination.
Example 2:
What 'example 1' might look if it was half-way
through the move.
--------- --------- ---------
| LV1s0 | | LV2s0 | | LV1s1 |
--------- --------- ---------
| | |
-------------------------------------
pvmove0 | seg 0 | seg 1 | seg 2 |
-------------------------------------
| | |
| -------------------------
source PV | | 256 - 511 | 512 - 767 |
| -------------------------
| ||
-------------------------
dest PV | 000 - 255 | 256 - 511 |
-------------------------
This update allows the user to specify that they would like the
pvmove mirror created "by LV" rather than "by segment". That is,
the pvmove LV becomes an image in an encapsulating mirror along
with the allocated copy image.
Example 3:
A pvmove that is performed "by LV" rather than "by segment".
--------- ---------
| LV1s0 | | LV2s0 |
--------- ---------
| |
-------------------------
pvmove0 | * LV-level mirror * |
-------------------------
/ \
pvmove_mimage0 / pvmove_mimage1
------------------------- -------------------------
| seg 0 | seg 1 | | seg 0 | seg 1 |
------------------------- -------------------------
| | | |
------------------------- -------------------------
| 000 - 255 | 256 - 511 | | 000 - 255 | 256 - 511 |
------------------------- -------------------------

The thing that differentiates a pvmove done in this way and a simple
"up-convert" from linear to mirror is the preservation of the
distinct segments. A normal up-convert would simply allocate the
necessary space with no regard for segment boundaries. The pvmove
operation must preserve the segments because they are the critical
boundary between the segments of the LVs being moved. So, when the
pvmove copy image is allocated, all corresponding segments must be
allocated. The code that merges ajoining segments that are part of
the same LV when the metadata is written must also be avoided in
this case. This method of mirroring is unique enough to warrant its
own definitional macro, MIRROR_BY_SEGMENTED_LV. This joins the two
existing macros: MIRROR_BY_SEG (for original pvmove) and MIRROR_BY_LV
(for user created mirrors).
The advantages of performing pvmove in this way is that all of the
LVs affected can be moved together. It is an all-or-nothing approach
that leaves all LV segments on the source PV if the move is aborted.
Additionally, a mirror log can be used (in the future) to provide tracking
of progress; allowing the copy to continue where it left off in the event
there is a deactivation.
Rewrite check lv_on and add new lv_tree_on
Move more pvmove test unrelated code out to check & get sections
(so they do not obfuscate trace output unnecesserily)
Use new lv_tree_on()
NOTE: unsure how the snapshot origin should be accounted here.
Split pmove-all-segments into separate tests for raid and thins
(so the test output properly shows what has been skipped in test)
Add make help target.
Add LVM_TEST_PARALLEL to support parallel runs of tests
Work around the problem the dmsetup table/info may return error
by using dmtable and dminfo function that will use 'should'.
(Error happens when some concurently running process removes table
entry while dmsetup command resolves table entries inside the loop.)

Shell improvements - use internal function for checks
Use PVs in "" (LV and VG cannot have spaces)
Several test very starting 'dmeventd' without annoucing
it via prepade_dmeventd.
Fix some of test actually.
Reduce disc excercise for some test and focus on LVM testing by
using smaller extent size.
Reduce number of teardown_devs calls and use vg/lvremove instead.
Don't sleep for seconds on pvmove.
FIXME: shell/lvconvert-mirror-basic.sh seems to need more checking.
Test fails for smalled extent size then 512k.
