Because of contraints in renaming shifted rimage/rmeta LV names
the current RaidLV limit is a maximum of 10 SubLV pairs.
With the previous introduction of reshaping infratructure that
constriant got removed.
Kernel supports 253 since dm-raid target 1.9.0, older kernels 64.
Raise the maximum number of RaidLV rimage/rmeta pairs to 64.
If we want to raise past 64, we have to introdce a check for
the kernel supporting it in lvcreate/lvconvert.

In order to support striped raid5/6/10 LV reshaping (change
of LV type, stripesize or number of legs), this patch
introduces infrastructure prerequisites to be used
by raid_manip.c extensions in followup patches.
This base is needed for allocation of out-of-place
reshape space required by the MD raid personalities to
avoid writing over data in-place when reading off the
current RAID layout or number of legs and writing out
the new layout or to a different number of legs
(i.e. restripe)

out-of-place reshape length per component rimage
- add member data_copies to struct lv_segment
to support more than 2 raid10 data copies
- make alloc_lv_segment() aware of both reshape_len and data_copies
- adjust all alloc_lv_segment() callers to the new API
- add functions to retrieve the current data offset (needed for
out-of-place reshaping space allocation) and the devices count
from the kernel
- make libdm deptree code aware of reshape_len
- add LV flags for disk add/remove reshaping
- support import/export of the new 'struct lv_segment' members
- enhance lv_extend/_lv_reduce to cope with reshape_len
- add seg_is_*/segtype_is_* macros related to reshaping
- add target version check for reshaping
- grow rebuilds/writemostly bitmaps to 246 bit to support kernel maximal
- enhance libdm deptree code to support data_offset (out-of-place reshaping)
and delta_disk (legs add/remove reshaping) target arguments

The MD kernel raid1 personality does no use any writemostly leg as the primary.
In case a previous linear LV holding data gets upconverted to
raid1 it becomes the primary leg of the new raid1 LV and a full
resynchronization is started to update the new legs.
No writemostly and/or writebehind setting may be allowed during
this initial, full synchronization period of this new raid1 LV
(using the lvchange(8) command), because that would change the
primary (i.e the previous linear LV) thus causing data loss.
lvchange has a bug not preventing this scenario.
Fix rejects setting writemostly and/or writebehind on resychronizing raid1 LVs.
Once we have status in the lvm2 metadata about the linear -> raid upconversion,
we may relax this constraint for other types of resynchronization
(e.g. for user requested "lvchange --resync ").
New lvchange-raid1-writemostly.sh test is added to the test suite.

Previously when lvremove tried to remove 'active' origin,
it had been asking for every 'snapshot' LV separately
and doing individual single snapshot removals first.
To be faster it now deactivates origin before removal
all connected snapshots.
This avoids multiple reloads of dm table for origin volume
which were unnecessary as origin was meant to be removed as well.
Change run time access to the command_name struct
cmd->cname instead of indirectly through
cmd->command->cname. This removes the two run time
fields from struct command.
. Define a prototype for every lvm command.
. Match every user command with one definition.
. Generate help text and man pages from them.
The new file command-lines.in defines a prototype for every
unique lvm command. A unique lvm command is a unique
combination of: command name + required option args +
required positional args. Each of these prototypes also
includes the optional option args and optional positional
args that the command will accept, a description, and a
unique string ID for the definition. Any valid command
will match one of the prototypes.
Here's an example of the lvresize command definitions from
command-lines.in, there are three unique lvresize commands:
lvresize --size SizeMB LV
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync, --reportformat String, --resizefs,
--stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB, --poolmetadatasize SizeMB
OP: PV ...
ID: lvresize_by_size
DESC: Resize an LV by a specified size.
lvresize LV PV ...
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync,
--reportformat String, --resizefs, --stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB
ID: lvresize_by_pv
DESC: Resize an LV by specified PV extents.
FLAGS: SECONDARY_SYNTAX
lvresize --poolmetadatasize SizeMB LV_thinpool
OO: --alloc Alloc, --autobackup Bool, --force,
--nofsck, --nosync, --noudevsync,
--reportformat String, --stripes Number, --stripesize SizeKB
OP: PV ...
ID: lvresize_pool_metadata_by_size
DESC: Resize a pool metadata SubLV by a specified size.
The three commands have separate definitions because they have
different required parameters. Required parameters are specified
on the first line of the definition. Optional options are
listed after OO, and optional positional args are listed after OP.
This data is used to generate corresponding command definition
structures for lvm in command-lines.h. usage/help output is also
auto generated, so it is always in sync with the definitions.
Every user-entered command is compared against the set of
command structures, and matched with one. An error is
reported if an entered command does not have the required
parameters for any definition. The closest match is printed
as a suggestion, and running lvresize --help will display
the usage for each possible lvresize command.
The prototype syntax used for help/man output includes
required --option and positional args on the first line,
and optional --option and positional args enclosed in [ ]
on subsequent lines.
command_name <required_opt_args> <required_pos_args>
[ <optional_opt_args> ]
[ <optional_pos_args> ]
Command definitions that are not to be advertised/suggested
have the flag SECONDARY_SYNTAX. These commands will not be
printed in the normal help output.
Man page prototypes are also generated from the same original
command definitions, and are always in sync with the code
and help text.
Very early in command execution, a matching command definition
is found. lvm then knows the operation being done, and that
the provided args conform to the definition. This will allow
lots of ad hoc checking/validation to be removed throughout
the code.
Each command definition can also be routed to a specific
function to implement it. The function is associated with
an enum value for the command definition (generated from
the ID string.) These per-command-definition implementation
functions have not yet been created, so all commands
currently fall back to the existing per-command-name
implementation functions.
Using per-command-definition functions will allow lots of
code to be removed which tries to figure out what the
command is meant to do. This is currently based on ad hoc
and complicated option analysis. When using the new
functions, what the command is doing is already known
from the associated command definition.
Remove allocate_pvs from raid_manip.c:_region_size_change_request() API
and lv_extend() using it added for temporary test purpose.

When showing sizes with 'H|human' units we do use standard rounding.
This however is confusing users from time to time,
when the printed number uses some biger units i.e. GiB and there is just
tiny fraction of space missing.
So here is some real-life example with new 'r' unit.
$lvs
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin
lvol0 vg -wi-a----- 1.99g
lvol1 vg -wi-a----- <2.00g
lvol2 vg -wi-a----- <2.01g
Meaning is - lvol1 has 'slightly' less then 2.00g - from sign '<' user
can be aware the LV doesn't have full 2.00GiB in size so he
will be less surpriced allocation of 2G volume will not succeed.
$ vgs
VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree
vg 2 2 0 wz--n- <6,00g <2,01g
For uses needing 'old' undecorated human unit simply will continue
to use 'H|h' units.
The new R|r may further change when we would recongnize some
other way how to improve readability.
With recent commit d6a74025df using
INTERNAL_ERROR while cheking layer LV - it's been noticed mirror
logic currently doesn't do a correct thing during upconversion and
does a full-try instead of checking only allocator capabilities.
This leads to invalid usage of layer.
To keep existing code running before providing a fix, relax
INTERNAL_ERROR just an error and keep the 'code' running.
Once mirror code is fixed, these all check should be switched
to internal errors.
Show proper internal error for failing command when there are some
inconsitencies in sizes of LV and its layer instead of rather
meaningless error code 5.
(Could be hit i.e. if user tried to 'resize' cached LV and then
uncache such LV.)
During rework of resize code this validation check
has been lost (in my resize branch). Upstream
is still not supporting resize of any cache type LV
so needs to be prevented.
When we need to clear dirty cache content of cached LV, there
is table reload which usually is shortly followed by next metadata
change. However udev can't (as of now) process udev event
while device is 'suspended'.
So whenever sequence of 'suspend/resume/suspend' is needed,
we need to wait first for finishing of 'resume' processing before
starting next 'suspend'. Otherwise there is 'race' danger of triggering
unwantend umount by systemd as such event will trigger
SYSTEMD_READY=0 state for a moment for such changed device.
Such race is pretty ugly to trace so we may need to review more
sequencies for missing 'sync'.
(Other option is to enhnace 'udev' rules processing to avoid
such dramatic actions to be happening for suspended devices).
Add to commits 87117c2b25 and 0b8bf73a63 to avoid refreshing two
times altogether, thus avoiding issues related to clustered, remotely
activated RaidLV. Avoid need to repeat "lvchange --refresh RaidLV"
two times as a workaround to refresh a RaidLV. Fix handles removal
of temporary *-missing-* devices created for any missing segments
in RAID SubLVs during activation.
Because the kernel dm-raid target isn't able to handle transiently
failing devices properly we need
"[dm-devel][PATCH] dm raid: fix transient device failure processing"
as well.

Move individual segment validation to a separate function
executed for 'complete_vg'.
Move some 'extra' validation bits from 'raid' validation to global
segtype validation (so extending existing normal validation)
TODO: still some test are left to be moved.
Reduce some duplication in validation process - there are still
some left thought so still room for improving overal speed.
It could be actually better to use even cache origin in
read-only mode so there could no be some 'acidental'
change being done on this volume.
This however need further tools enhancment - where we would need
to handle whole subtree on 'lvchange -pr/-prw'.
When command calls backup() more then once (which is actually not
wanted) this warning message is shown repeatedly:
"WARNING: This metadata update is NOT backed up."
Instead now print message just once and less confuse user.
Add this functionality to lvconvert:
'lvconvert --thin cachedLV --thinpool vg/poll'
Converts cachedLV to external origin (which will be read-only).
New thin volume is created in thinpool LV and it's using external
origin as source for unprovisioned chunks.
This conversion happens online (while volume is in use).
Thin LV remains fully writable.
Cached external origin no longer could be written so cache will be used
ONLY for read operations. For this limitation we require cache mode
to be writethrough (as writeback cannot write to read-only volumes).
When thinLV is later removed cached external origin is again
fully usable, just note, LV remain in 'read-only' mode.
When read-write is needed, 'lvchange -prw' has to be used.
Single external origin could be user by multiple thinLV in
multiple differen thin pool.
When cache volume may be converted from normal to -real layer LV
we need to improve logic for call cache_check.
With this patch, we register call for cache_check only when metadata LV
is not yet present in active table slot (should match initial table
load).
This avoids unwanted checking when cache would become layer device
online.
External origin could be reloaded via more locks.
It's actually even more complex then thin-pool,
as it may be active on more nodes for linear LVs
(and maybe even more types).
External origin is always read-only thus unmodifiable
device so there should not be a problem accesing it
through multiple nodes.
Also for thin-pool check first presence of active thin-pool.
FIXME:
It's not easy to detect on which nodes this device is active
Thus manipulation with such device may require checking every
node and it active state and refresh.
But since such setup is quite complex to prepare and use,
hopefully there are not user trying to 'explore' this usage yet.
To be ready to show status of cache volume, call the status
with layer. Layer is automatically detected in this case when
cache volume is used in 'layered' form (needs -real suffix).
Avoid printing misleading message about single dirty block.
Instead properly detect condition where the 'cleaner' policy
needs to be installed without 'overloading' dirty variable.
Also print warning if we would be clearing read-only volume.
(it really shouldn't happen).
External origin could be activated as stand-alone device.
When the last thin LV is removed, external origin is no longer
the external origin and it's layer property was dropped.
Ensure dm table is correct by reloading external origin
(when it's active).
When LV is external origin, show info for LV but
status for -layer. So we expose more info to a user
as otherwise active external origin is only linear
mapping of -real layer.
We do the same for i.e. old snaphost origin.
Activation of raid has brough up also splitted image with tracing
(without taking lock for this).
So when raid is now activate - such image is not put into
table (with _rmeta). When user needs such device, just active it.
Commit 0690392040 revealed a problem
in raid metadata manipulation.
We do two operations in one table reload:
- raid leg/image extraction
- rename remaining raid legs
This should be made in separate steps. Otherwise we do an
uncorrectable table change on error path (leaving tables
for admin and dmsetup).
As a hotfix - restore the previous logic and use a single
new function _lv_update_and_reload_list which activates exclusively
extracted LVs on the list before resuming suspended raid LV.
This restore 'rename' functionality upon resume.
Also still preserve the 'origin_only' logic - although we know
it's not working properly for cluster and LV stacking.
Further fixes are needed.
backup is not 'tested' for success and also it should
actually happen just when command is finished.
We do not target to make backups with each inter-step
metadata change.
RAID is LV property
TODO: only 2 flags are seg->status: PVMOVE & MERGING
At least the second one should be soon elimanted as again
we merge LV not a segment.
This is another place for 'common' use pattern or
reload and activation of deleted devices.
(Moving the exclusive activation to _deactivate_and_remove_lvs()).
TODO: looks like halve of raid function is reloading
just 'origin' - and the other full LV.
Add a macro for the clz (count leading zeros) operation.
Use the GCC __builtin_clz() for clz() if it is available and fall
back to a shift based implementation on systems that do not set
HAVE___BUILTIN_CLZ.
Fix order of operation when converting raid1 into old mirror.
Before any later metadata modification are initiated prepare
mirror_log device with all clearing.
Then directly convert raid1 into mirror with mirror_log.
This convertion now properly see as precommitted metadata
new 'mirror' and committed old 'raid' and is able to
preload all LVs.
Simplify info run for use only for INFO & STATUS.
Drop handling MKNODES within _info_run() call
and use more advanced _setup_task_run() directly.
This allows to further simplify _info_run().
Integrate also query for inactive table and
handle dm_task_run() and dm_task_get_info()
(thus switching to setup_task_run)
Add one exception case for DM_DEVICE_TARGET_MSG.
This allows further shortening and simplification of all
other users of this function.
It's actually not needed to call extra lv_has_target_type() to detect
snapshot merge is in progress - decode this right during status
capturing and save even few extra ioctl calls.
Drop LV from passed API arg - it's always segment being checked.
Also use_layer is now in full control of lv_info_with_seg_status().
It decides which device needs to be checked to get 'the most info'.
TODO: future version should be able to expose status from
Start moving selection of status taken for a LV into a single place.
The logic for showing info & status has been spread over multiple
places and were doing too complex decision going agains each other.
Unify selection of status of origin & cow scanned device.
TODO: in future we want to grab status for LV and layered LV and have
both statuses present for display - i.e. when 'old snapshot'
of thinLV is takes and there is ongoing merge - at some moment
we are not capable to show all needed info.
When lvm2 wants to see a status, it needs to validate,
segment for status reading is matching whan lvm2 expects in
metadata.
Also ensure status failure will not cause '0' from info reading
when actual info was collected properly.
Failure in 'status' reading is considered to be
a 'log_warn()' event only.
When we can't parse status, switch to warning as this is not
considered an errornous case. LVS is not supposed to return
error status code when device is not what it's been expected to
be - but it should be WARNING a user there is something unexpected.
Convert lvs -o lv_merge_failed,lv_snapshot_invalid to use
lv_info_and_status function.
This makes it equal to attr value showing this info
(as they were different since they were derived from
different data set and different logic as well).
Also saves couple extra ioctl that were needed to obtain this info.
When displaying <reporting_command> -o help, we'd like to have fields
grouped nicely, not starting having groups interleaved as it was before.
The code that displays the help output for fields takes the order as
written in columns.h file - this caused output like:
$ lvs -o help
Logical Volume Fields
---------------------
...field list...
Logical Volume Device Info and Status Combined Fields
-----------------------------------------------------
...field list...
Logical Volume Fields

Instead, let's have it without groups interleaved which may be
a bit confusing, so:

Logical Volume Device Status Fields

Logical Volume Device Info and Status Combined Fields

..and so on.
In case any SubLV of a RaidLV transiently fails, it needs
two "lvchange --refresh RaidLV" runs to get it to fully
operational mode again. Reason being, that lvm reloads all
targets for the RaidLV tree but doesn't resume the SubLVs
until after the whole tree has been reloaded in the first
refresh run. Thus the live mapping table of the SubLVs
still point to an "error" mapping and the dm-raid target
can't retrieve any superblock from the MetaLV(s) in processing
the constructor during this preload thus not discovering the
again accessible SubLVs. In the second run, the SubLV targets
map proper (meta)data, hence the constructor discovers those
fine now.
Solve by resuming the SubLVs of the RaidLV before
preloading the respective top-level RaidLV target.

Avoid code duplication and use exiting commonly used
lv_update_and_reload() function.
There is still one place left where mirror is doing strange
double suspend call - needs there more thinking what's wrong with
that code.
When lvconvert adds a new leg - it's doing it free 'temporary' image
layer - however this temporary 'internal' mirror is also MIRRORED LV.
But the status bit was not properly transfered through layer.
Do not emit warning message but only log debug message if
lvm2-lvmdbusd.service unit is missing and at the same time
we have global/notify_dbus=1 (which is used by default if we
configured sources with "--enable-notify-dbus"). We don't want
hard dependency between LVM2 and lvmdbusd so it's enough to log
only debug message in this case.
Make it easier to replace missing segments with 'zero' returning
target - otherwise user would have to create some extra target
to provide zeros as /dev/zero can't be used (not a block device).
Also break code loop when segment is found and make it an INTERNAL_ERROR
where it's missing.
Instead of clearing multiple rmeta device with sequential activation
process and waiting for udev for every _rmeta device separately,
activate all _rmeta devices first and then clear them and deactivate
afterwards.
Also update some tracing messages.
When anyhing goes wrong during clearing process, always try to
deactivate as much _rmeta devices as possible before fail.
Translate log_info() into log_very_verbose() which is macro
supposed to be used by our code.
log_info() is internal macro with eventually some 'symbolic' meaning
in syslogging daemons.
Introduce macros:
log_level(), log_stderr(), log_once(), log_bypass_report()
For easier and more consisten way how to 'decoder' bits
of info from passed 'level'.
This patch fixes potential problem when 'level' of message
might not have always masked right bits.
(Automatic) repair may not be allowed during the initial sync of an upconverted
linear LV, because the data on the failing, primary leg hasn't been completely
synchronized to the N-1 other legs of the raid1 LV (replacing failed legs during
repair involves discontinuing access to any replaced legs data, thus preventing
data recovery on the primary leg e.g. via dd_rescue).
Even though repair would not cause data loss when adding legs to a fully synced
raid1 LV, we don't have information yet defining this state yet (e.g. a raid1
LV flag telling the fully synchronized status before any legs were added),
hence can't automatically decide to allow to repair.
If nonetheless a repair on a non-synced raid1 LVs is intended, the "--force"
option has to be provided.

Check for dm-raid target version with non-standard raid4 mapping expecting the dedicated
parity device in the last rather than the first slot and prohibit to create, activate or
convert to such LVs from striped/raid0* or vice-versa in order to avoid data corruption.
Add related tests to lvconvert-raid-takeover.sh
Resolves: rhbz1388962
On conversions between striped/raid0* and raid4, the kernel expects
the dedicated raid4 parity SubLVs in the first segment area rather than
in the last it's been allocated to, thus the data mapping ain't proper.
Enhance lvconvert (lib/metadata/raid_manip.c) to shift the dedicated
parity SubLVs on conversions from striped/raid0* to raid4 and vice-versa.
In case of raid0_meta -> raid4 where the MD raid0 personality already has
stored RAID array device positions in the superblocks, the MetaLVs have to
be cleared so that the kernel doesn't fail validating the array positions
after lvm has shifted them up by one.
Add more tests to lvconvert-raid-takeover.sh including one to check for
mapping flaws by converting a created raid4 with filesystem -> striped
and fsck it.
Whilst on it:
- add missing direct striped -> raid4 conversion to the takeover array
to avoid an intermim conversion from striped -> raid0*
- clean up the takeover array
- allow lvconvert to actually call lv_raid_convert() on all takeover requests
in order to check parameters and display messages provided by takeover
functions rather than just "...not supported" from within lvconvert
- fix a typo

Works if the pool is inactive.
Activation code doesn't notice a new raid dependency in on-disk metadata
when a thin LV is already active.

We added lightweight toolcontext handle to avoid useless initialization
of some parts of the context and also to avoid problems when using the
handle very soon at system boot, like in lvm2-activation-generator
through lvm2app interface. However, we missed reading all the other
config sources like lvmlocal.conf as well as any tag config - we need to
read these too to get the final config value which may be overriden in
any of these additional config sources.
Currently, we use this lightweight toolcontext handle to read
global/use_lvmetad and global/use_lvmpolld config values in
lvm2-activation-generator using lvm2app interface (lvm_config_find_bool
lvm2app function).
The dm-raid target now rejects device rebuild requests during ongoing
resynchronization thus causing 'lvconvert --repair ...' to fail with
a kernel error message. This regresses with respect to failing automatic
repair via the dmeventd RAID plugin in case raid_fault_policy="allocate"
is configured in lvm.conf as well.
Previously allowing such repair request required cancelling the
resynchronization of any still accessible DataLVs, hence reasoning
potential data loss.
Patch allows the resynchronization of still accessible DataLVs to
finish up by rejecting any 'lvconvert --repair ...'.
It enhances the dmeventd RAID plugin to be able to automatically repair
by postponing the repair after synchronization ended.
More tests are added to lvconvert-rebuild-raid.sh to cover single
and multiple DataLV failure cases for the different RAID levels.

Commit 199697accf rerouted funtion
for priting cache volume origin to lvm2app app function - which
however had a bug. So restore the original functionality
and print correct LV as cache origin LV.
Unconditionally guard there is at least 1/4 of metadata volume
free (<16Mib) or 4MiB - whichever value is smaller.
In case there is not enough free space do not let operation proceed and
recommend thin-pool metadata resize (in case user has not
enabled autoresize, manual 'lvextend --poolmetadatasize' is needed).
In the case there is no active thin volume, report thin pool
as lock holder. This fixed function like lvextend
which either expecte lock holder LV is some active thin
or 'possibly' inactive thin pool.
The existing code doesn't understand that mirror logs should cling to
parallel LVs (like extending them) instead of avoiding them.
As a quick workaround to avoid lvcreate failures, hard-code
--alloc normal for mirror logs even if the rest of the allocation
used a stricter policy.

When rescanning a VG from disk, the metadata read from
each PV was compared as a sanity check. The comparison
is done by exporting the vg metadata from each dev to
a config tree, and then comparing the config trees.
The function to create the config tree inserts
extraneous information along with the actual VG metadata.
This extra info includes creation_time. The config
trees for two devs can easily be created one second
apart in which case the different creation_times would
cause the metadata comparison to fail. The fix is to
exclude the extraneous info from the metadata comparison.
Reinstantiate reporting of metadata percent usage for cache volumes.
Also show the same percentage with hidden cache-pool LV.
This regression was caused by optimization for a single-ioctl in
2.02.155.
Older udev versions (udev < v165), don't have the official
udev_device_get_is_initialized function available to query for
device initialization state in udev database. Also, devices don't
have USEC_INITIALIZED udev db variable set - this is bound to the
udev_device_get_is_initialized fn functionality.
In this case, check for "DEVLINKS" variable instead - all block devices
have at least one symlink set for the node (the "/dev/block/<major:minor>".
This symlink is set by default basic udev rules provided by udev directly.
We'll use this as an alternative for the check that initial udev
processing for a device has already finished.
It's possible (mainly during boot) that udev has not finished
processing the device and hence the udev database record for that
device is still marked as uninitialized when we're trying to look
at it as part of multipath component check in pvscan --cache code.
So check several times with a short delay to wait for the udev db
record to be initialized before giving up completely.
When scanning devs to populate lvmetad during system startup,
filter-mpath with native sysfs multipath component detection
may not detect that a dev is multipath component. This is
because the multipath devices may not be set up yet.
Because of this, pvscan will scan multipath components during
startup, will see them as duplicate PVs, and will disable
lvmetad. This will leave lvmetad disabled on systems using
multipath, unless something or someone runs pvscan --cache
to rescan.
To avoid this problem, the code that is scanning devices to
populate lvmetad will now check the udev db to see if a
dev is a multipath component that should be skipped.
(This may not be perfect due to inherent udev races, but will
cover most cases and will be at least as good as it's ever
been.)
Avoid monitoring of activated cache-pool - where the only purpose ATM
is to clear metadata volume which is actually activate in place
of cache-pool name (using public LV name).
Since VG lock is held across whole clear operation, dmeventd cannot
be used anyway - however in case of appliction crash we may
leave unmonitored device.
In future we may provide better mechanism as the current name
replacemnet is creating 'uncommon' table setups in case the metadata
LV is more complex type like raid (needs some futher thinking about
error path results).
Another point to think about is the fact we should not clear device
while holding lock (i.e. dmeventd mirror repair cannot work in cases
like this).
Introduce 'hard limit' for max number of cache chunks.
When cache target operates with too many chunks (>10e6).
When user is aware of related possible troubles he
may increase the limit in lvm.conf.
Also verbosely inform user about possible solution.
Code works for both lvcreate and lvconvert.
Lvconvert fully supports change of chunk_size when caching LV
(and validates for compatible settings).
Commit e947c362dd introduced
config_settings.h file for central place to store all definitions for
config options. By mistake, it used report/colums_as_rows instead
of report/columns_as_rows (missing "n" in "columns").
'pvmove -n name pv1 pv2' allows to collocate multiple RAID SubLVs
on pv2 (e.g. results in collocated raidlv_rimage_0 and raidlv_rimage_1),
thus causing loss of resilence and/or performance of the RaidLV.
Fix this pvmove flaw leading to potential data loss in case of PV failure
by preventing any SubLVs from collocation on any PVs of the RaidLV.
Still allow to collocate any DataLVs of a RaidLV with their sibling MetaLVs
and vice-versa though (e.g. raidlv_rmeta_0 on pv1 may still be moved to pv2
already holding raidlv_rimage_0).
Because access to the top-level RaidLV name is needed,
promote local _top_level_lv_name() from raid_manip.c
to global top_level_lv_name().

Adding MetaLVs to given DataLVs (e.g. raid0 -> raid0_meta takeover),
_avoid_pvs_with_other_images_of_lv() was missing code to prohibit

When lvm is compiled with --enable-notify-dbus and a user uses lvm
shell, after they issue 200+ commands the lvm shell will hang for
~30 seconds trying to notify the lvm dbus service that a change
has occurred. This appears to be caused by resource exhaustion,
because the sockets used for dbus communication are not be closed.
Enforce mirror/raid0/1/10/4/5/6 type specific maximum images when

Document those maxima in the lvcreate/lvconvert man pages.

Some settings are not suitable for override in interactive/shell
mode because such settings may confuse the code and it may end
up with unexpected behaviour. This is because of the fact that
once we're in the interactive/shell mode, we have already applied
some settings for the shell itself and we can't override them
further because we're already using those settings to drive the
interactive/shell mode. Such settings would get ignored silently
or, in worse case, they would mess up the existing configuration.
When lvm commands are executed in lvm shell, we cover the whole lvm
command execution within this shell now. That means, all messages logged
and status caught during each command execution is now recorded in the
log report, including overall command's return code.
With patches that will follow, this will make it possible to widen log
report coverage when commands are executed from lvm shell so the amount
of messages that may end up in stderr/stdout instead of log report are
minimized.
Add new log_context=shell and with log_object_type=cmd and
log_object_name=<command_name> for command log report to collect
overall return code from last command (this is reported under
log_type=status).
Currently, the output is separated in 3 parts and each part can go into
a separate and user-defined file descriptor:
- common output (stdout by default, customizable by LVM_OUT_FD environment variable)
- error output (stderr by default, customizable by LVM_ERR_FD environment variable)
- report output (stdout by default, customizable by LVM_REPORT_FD environment variable)
For example, each type of output goes to different output file:
[0] fedora/~ # export LVM_REPORT_FD=3
[0] fedora/~ # lvs fedora vg/abc 1>out 2>err 3>report
[0] fedora/~ # cat out
[0] fedora/~ # cat err

'lvchange --resync LV' or 'lvchange --syncaction repair LV' request the
RAID layout specific parity blocks in raid4/5/6 to be recreated or the
mirrored blocks to be copied again from the master leg/copy for raid1/10,
thus not allowing a rebuild of a particular PV.
Introduce repeatable option '--[raid]rebuild PV' to allow to request
rebuilds of specific PVs in a RaidLV which are known to contain corrupt
data (e.g. rebuild a raid1 master leg).
Add test lvchange-rebuild-raid.sh to test/shell doing rebuild
variations on raid1/10 and 5; add aux function check_status_chars

introduced with commit 8f62b7bfe5 rely on complete
defintions of the relations between the LVs of a VG.
Hence only run these checks when the complete_vg flag
is set on calls to check_lv_segments().
lvconvert failed in test lvconvert-thin-raid.sh when
calling check_lv_segments() from _read_segments() without
providing a complete definition.
General RAID and RAID segment type specific checks are added
to merge.c. New static _check_raid_seg() is called on each segment
of a RaidLV (which have just one) from check_lv_segments().
New checks caught some unititialized segment members
which are addressed here as well:
- initialize seg->region_size to 0 in lvcreate.c for raid0/raid0_meta
- initialize list seg->origin_list in lv_manip.c
When volume was lvconvert-ed to a thin-volume with external origin,
then in case thin-pool was in non-zeroing mode
it's been printing WARNING about not zeroing thin volume - but
this is wanted and expected - so nothing to warn about.
So in this particular use case WARNING needs to be suppressed.
Adding parameter support for lvcreate_params.
So now lvconvert creates 'normal thin LV' in read-only mode
(so any read will 'return 0' for a moment)
then deactivate regular thin LV and reacreate in 'final R/RW' mode
thin LV with external origin and activate again.
Before, the automatic update from older to newer version of PV extension
header happened within vg_write call. This may have caused problems under
some circumnstances where there's a code in between vg_write and vg_commit
which may have failed. In such situation, we reverted precommitted metadata
and put back the state to working version of VG metadata.
However, we don't have revert for PV write operation at the moment. So
if we updated PV headers already and we reverted vg_write due to failure
in subsequent code (before vg_commit), we ended up with lost VG metadata
(because old metadata pointers got reset by the PV write operation).
To minimize problematic situations here, we should put vg_write and
vg_commit that is done after PV header rewrites as close to each
other as possible.
This patch moves the automatic PV header rewrite for new extension
header part from vg_write to _vg_read where it's done the same way
as we do any other VG repairs if detected during VG read operation
(under VG write lock).
If the VG holding the global lock is removed, we can indicate
that as the reason for not being able to acquire the global
lock in subsequent error messages, and can suggest enabling
the global lock in another VG. (This helpful error message
will go away if the global lock is enabled in another VG,
or if lvmlockd is restarted.)
In some cases, the command will update VG metadata
in lvmetad without writing it. In these cases there
is no vg->vg_committed and it should use 'vg' directly.
This happens when the command finds that the lvmetad
VG has been invalidated, rereads the metadata from disk,
then updates lvmetad with that metadata. This happens
often with lvmlockd or foreign VGs, and can happen without
lvmlockd if a previous command fails after invalidating
the VG in lvmetad.
Commit 3928c96a37 introduced
new defaults for raid number of stripes, which may cause
backwards compatibility issues with customer scripts.
Adding configurable option 'raid_stripe_all_devices' defaulting
to '0' (i.e. off = new behaviour) to select the old behaviour
of using all PVs in the VG or those provided on the command line.
In case any scripts rely on the old behaviour, just set
'raid_strip_all_devices = 1'.

This fixes a regression from commit a7c45ddc5, which moved
the lvmetad VG update from vg_commit() to unlock_vg().
The lvmetad VG update needs to send the version of metadata
that was committed rather than sending the state of struct 'vg'.
The 'vg' may have been partially modified since vg_commit(),
and contain non-committed metadata that shouldn't be sent
to lvmetad.
Any failing stripes in raid0/raid0_meta type LVs cause data loss,
thus replacement via 'lvconvert --replace...' does not make sense.
Patch prohibits replacement on raid0/raid0_meta LVs.
- resolves rhbz1356734
Commit ca878a3426 changed behavior
or resize operation. Later the code has been futher changed
to skip fs resize completely when size of LV is already matching
and finaly at the most recent resize changeset for resize the
check for matching size has been eliminated as well so we ended
with a request call to resize fs to 0 size in some cases.
This commit reoders some test so the prompt happens just once before
resize of possibly 2 related volumes.
Also extra test for having LV already given size is added, and
whole metadata update is skipped for this case as the only
result would be an increment of seqno.
However the filesystem is still resized when requested,
so if the LV has some size and the resize is resolved to
the same size, the filesystem resize is called so in case FS
would not match, the resize will happen.
A livelock occurs on extension in lv_manip when adjusting the region size,
which doesn't apply to any raid0/raid0_meta LVs (these don't have a bitmap).
Fix by prohibiting the region size adjustment on any such LVs.
