Function _ignore_blocked_mirror_devices was not release
allocated strings images_health and log_health.
In error paths it was also not releasing dm_task structure.
Swaped return code of _ignore_blocked_mirror_devices and
use 1 as success.
In _parse_mirror_status use log_error if memory allocation
fails and few more errors so they are no going unnoticed
as debug messages.
On error path always clear return values and free strings.
For dev_create_file use cache mem pool to avoid memleak.
In case we don't want to activate, autoactivate or have the
VG/LV read-only. Primarily targeted for the auto_activation_volume_list,
but it makes no harm for other settings (the part of the code
that reads these three settings is shared, but there's no
reason to separate it only for this change).
Check if target supports discards for chunk sizes,
that are not power of 2 (just multiple of 64K),
and enable it in case it's supported by thin kernel target.
Commit 9fd7ac7d03 did not handle mirrors
that contained mirrored logs. This is because the status line of the
mirror does not give an indication of the health of the mirrored log,
as you can see here:
[root@bp-01 lvm2]# dmsetup status vg-lv vg-lv_mlog
vg-lv: 0 409600 mirror 2 253:6 253:7 400/400 1 AA 3 disk 253:5 A
vg-lv_mlog: 0 8192 mirror 2 253:3 253:4 7/8 1 AD 1 core
Thus, the possibility for LVM commands to hang still persists when mirror
have mirrored logs. I discovered this while performing some testing that
does polling with 'pvs' while doing I/O and killing devices. The 'pvs'
managed to get between the mirrored log device failure and the attempt
by dmeventd to repair it. The result was a very nasty block in LVM
commands that is very difficult to remove - even for someone who knows
what is going on. Thus, it is absolutely essential that the log of a
mirror be recursively checked for mirror devices which may be failed
as well.
Despite what the code comment says in the aforementioned commit...
+ * _mirrored_transient_status(). FIXME: It is unable to handle mirrors
+ * with mirrored logs because it does not have a way to get the status of
+ * the mirror that forms the log, which could be blocked.
... it is possible to get the status of the log because the log device
major/minor is given to us by the status output of the top-level mirror.
We can use that to query the log device for any DM status and see if it
is a mirror that needs to be bypassed. This patch does just that and is
now able to avoid reading from mirrors that have failed devices in a
mirrored log.
Addresses: rhbz855398 (Allow VGs to be built on cluster mirrors),
and other issues.
The LVM code attempts to avoid reading labels from devices that are
suspended to try to avoid situations that may cause the commands to
block indefinitely. When scanning devices, 'ignore_suspended_devices'
can be set so the code (lib/activate/dev_manager.c:device_is_usable())
checks any DM devices it finds and avoids them if they are suspended.
The mirror target has an additional mechanism that can cause I/O to
be blocked. If a device in a mirror fails, all I/O will be blocked
by the kernel until a new table (a linear target or a mirror with
replacement devices) is loaded. The mirror indicates that this condition
has happened by marking a 'D' for the faulty device in its status
output. This condition must also be checked by 'device_is_usable()' to
avoid the possibility of blocking LVM commands indefinitely due to an
attempt to read the blocked mirror for labels.
Until now, mirrors were avoided if the 'ignore_suspended_devices'
condition was set. This check seemed to suggest, "if we are concerned
about suspended devices, then let's ignore mirrors altogether just
in case". This is insufficient and doesn't solve any problems. All
devices that are suspended are already avoided if
'ignore_suspended_devices' is set; and if a mirror is blocking because
of an error condition, it will block the LVM command regardless of the
setting of that variable.
Rather than avoiding mirrors whenever 'ignore_suspended_devices' is
set, this patch causes mirrors to be avoided whenever they are blocking
due to an error. (As mentioned above, the case where a DM device is
suspended is already covered.) This solves a number of issues that weren't
handled before. For example, pvcreate (or any command that does a
pv_read or vg_read, which eventually call device_is_usable()) will be
protected from blocked mirrors regardless of how
'ignore_suspended_devices' is set. Additionally, a mirror that is
neither suspended nor blocking is /allowed/ to be read regardless
of how 'ignore_suspended_devices' is set. (The latter point being the
source of the fix for rhbz855398.)
Adding couple INTERNAL_ERROR reports for unwanted parameters:
Ensure the 'top' metadata node cannot be NULL for lvmetad.
Make obvious vginfo2 cannot be NULL.
Report internal error if handler and vg is undefined.
Check for handle in poll_vg().
Ensure seg is not NULL in dev_manager_transient().
Report missing read_ahead for _lv_read_ahead_single().
Check for report handler in dm_report_object().
Check missing VG in _vgreduce_single().
Change 'lv_passes_volumes_filter' fn back to static as it's not
actually needed in the other code (a remnant from devel version).
Fix lvm.conf comment referencing '--autoactivate' which was finally
decided to be '--activate ay'.
Define an 'activation_handler' that gets called automatically on
PV appearance/disappearance while processing the lvmetad_pv_found
and lvmetad_pv_gone functions that are supposed to update the
lvmetad state based on PV availability state. For now, the actual
support is for PV appearance only, leaving room for PV disappearance
support as well (which is a more complex problem to solve as this
needs to count with possible device stack).
Add a new activation change mode - CHANGE_AAY exposed as
'--activate ay/-aay' argument ('activate automatically').
Factor out the vgchange activation functionality for use in other
tools (like pvscan...).
The 'mirror' segtype and 'raid1' segtype both set the 'MIRRORED' flag.
However, due to differences in the way these device-mapper targets behave
'mirror' must be suspended with the 'noflush' option and 'raid1' does not
have to be.
This patch ensures that when the 'MIRRORED' flag is checked to see if
'noflush' is needed that it does not also set it for 'raid1' by mistake.
Code adds better support for monitoring of thin pool devices.
update_pool_lv uses DMEVENTD_MONITOR_IGNORE to not manipulate with monitoring.
vgchange & lvchange are checking real thin pool device for existance
as we are using _tpool real device and visible LV pool device might not
be even active (_tpool is activated implicitely for any thin volume).
monitor_dev_for_events is another _lv_postorder like code it might be worth
to think about reusing it here - for now update the code to properly
monitory thin volume deps.
For unmonitoring add extra code to check the usage of thin pool - in case it's in use
unmonitoring of thin volume is skipped.
Update a way we handle option passing - so we now support path and options
with space inside.
Fix dm name usage for thin pools with '-' in name.
Use new lvm.conf option thin_check_options to pass in options as string array.
Use thin_dump --repair suggestion in log error message
and use just warning on deactivation path without repair info
(since node has been deactivated).
Also check whether there is not 16 args for thin_check configured.
Use libdm callback to execute thin_check before activation
thin pool and after deactivation as well.
Supporting thin_check_executable which may pass in extra options for
the tool.
Commit 02f6f4902f introduced a bug that caused
RAID devices to fail to activate if the device for a single sub-LV failed.
The special case of LVM mirror was handled, but not LVM RAID.

Count number of error and existing areas and if there is no existing area
for the LV avoid its activation.
Always disable partial activatio for thin volumes.
For mirrors currently put in hack to let it pass with a special name
since current mirror code needs to activate such LV during some operations.
For reading % of mapped size of thin volume use as origin for
old style snapshot '-real' device needs to be queried.
Fix log_error report given for lvs -a in this case.
Extend the usage of origin_only flag to allow resume of thin pool LV
(when it's active) to pass only the messages.
origin_only flag will skip detection of already resumed tree for thin_pool,
so we do not need to suspend the tree and we just send messages.
Pass in the origin_only flag also for thin volumes - but curently the flag
is not used to its best.
FIXME: achieve the state where only thin volume snapshot origin is
suspended without its childrens - let's explore whether this may
happen automatically inside libdm (might be generic for other targets).
So the code would not need to annotate the node for this.
Extend lv_activate_opts with bool flag to know for which purpose
dtree is created - and add message only for activation tree
(since that's the only place that may send them).
Extend validation check for thin snapshot creation and test whether
active snapshot origin is suspended before its snapshot is created
(useful in recover scenarios) - in this case also detect, whether
transaction has been already completed and avoid such suspend check
failure in that case.
Similar to the "mirror" segment type's log device, _add_dev_to_dtree should
be called and not _add_lv_to_dtree when adding metadata sub-LVs to the deptree.
Since _add_lv_to_dtree was being called, 'origin_only' could be set if a
snapshot sits on top of the RAID device. This would cause the actual device
that needed to be added to be skipped in favor of the non-existant device,
"<foo>-real".
This patch to the suspend code - like the similar change for resume -
queries the lock mode of a cluster volume and records whether it is active
exclusively. This is necessary for suspend due to the possibility of
preloading targets. Failure to check to exclusivity causes the cluster target
of an exclusively activated mirror to be used when converting - rather than
the single machine target.
This value returns percentage of 'mapped' size compared with total LV size.
(Without passed seg pointer it return highest mapped size - but it's
not used yet.)
LVM metadata knows only of striped segments - not linear ones.
The activation code detects segments with a single stripe and switches
them to use the linear target.
If the new lvm.conf setting is set to 0 (e.g. in a test script), this
'optimisation' is turned off.
Remove FIXMES - there should not be any pool free call since
the memory pool is from device manager, and pool is detroyed
after the operation, so doing extra free here would not help here.
However lv_has_target_type() is using cmd mempool so here the extra
call for dm_pool_free makes sence.
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.
Since we support snapshots of thin volumes, we could have more layers,
so we have to check whether tpool layer is going to be inserted.
As the _add_segment_to_dtree() is the only place that adds tpool
segment, we may just check pointer (no strcmp for layer).
Switch to use seg_is_ function instead of lv_is_.
Add filter which tries to check if scanned device is part
of active multipath.
Firstly, only SCSI major number devices are handled in filter.
Then it checks if device has exactly one holder (in sysfs) and
if it is device-mapper device and DM-UUID is prefixed by "MPATH-".
If so, this device is filtered out.
The whole filter can be switched off by setting
mpath_component_detection in lvm.conf.

Let's put the overlay device over real thin pool device.
So we can get the proper locking on cluster.
Overwise the pool LV would be activate once implicitely
and in other case explicitely, confusing locking mechanism.
This patch make the activation of pool LV independent on
activation of thin LV since they will both implicitely use
real -thin pool device.
To ensure we properly handle LV cluster locking - explicitely do
not allow to change the availability of the thin pool that is in use
for some thin LV.
As soon as the thin volume is created the only way to activate pool
is via implicit dependency.
Ignore thinpool open count for lv/vgchange operations.
When verify_udev_operations was disable, code for stacking fs operation for
lvm links was completely disable - but this code was also used for collecting
information, that a new node is being created.
Add a new flag which is set when a creation of lv symlinks is requested which
should restore old behaviour of lv_info function, that has called fs_sync()
before quere for open count on device.
Using log_warn to report missing symlinks as warning, since the command
itself returns as successful, we should not produce log_error().
log_warn is better fit here.
Cosmetic, since r is already 0 for the error path, no need to assign it there,
and r is assigned to 1 after switch command.
Also makes the code more readable.
This patch also does some clean-up of the splitmirrors code.
I've attempted to clean-up the splitmirrors code to make it easier to
understand with fewer operations. I've tried to reduce the number of
metadata operations without compromising the intermediate stages which
are necessary for easy clean-up in the even of failure.
These changes now correctly handle cluster situations - including exclusive
cluster mirrors. Whereas before, a splitmirror operation would result in
remote nodes having LVM commands report the newly split LV with a proper
name while DM commands would report the old (pre-split) names of the device.
IOW, there was a kernel/userspace mismatch.
The current code does not always assign proper udev flags to sub-LVs (e.g.
mirror images and log LVs). This shows up especially during a splitmirror
operation in which an image is split off from a mirror to form a new LV.
A mirror with a disk log is actually composed of 4 different LVs: the 2
mirror images, the log, and the top-level LV that "glues" them all together.
When a 2-way mirror is split into two linear LVs, two of those LVs must be
removed. The segments of the image which is not split off to form the new
LV are transferred to the top-level LV. This is done so that the original
LV can maintain its major/minor, UUID, and name. The sub-lv from which the
segments were transferred gets an error segment as a transitory process
before it is eventually removed. (Note that if the error target was not put
in place, a resume_lv would result in two LVs pointing to the same segment!
If the machine crashes before the eventual removal of the sub-LV, the result
would be a residual LV with the same mapping as the original (now linear) LV.)
So, the two LVs that need to be removed are now the log device and the sub-LV
with the error segment. If udev_flags are not properly set, a resume will
cause the error LV to come up and be scanned by udev. This causes I/O errors.
Additionally, when udev scans sub-LVs (or former sub-LVs), it can cause races
when we are trying to remove those LVs. This is especially bad during failure
conditions.
When the mirror is suspended, the top-level along with its sub-LVs are
suspended. The changes (now 2 linear devices and the yet-to-be-removed log
and error LV) are committed. When the resume takes place on the original
LV, there are no longer links to the other sub-lvs through the LVM metadata.
The links are implicitly handled by querying the kernel for a list of
dependencies. This is done in the '_add_dev' function (which is recursively
called for each dependency found) - called through the following chain:
_add_dev
dm_tree_add_dev_with_udev_flags
<*** DM / LVM divide ***>
_add_dev_to_dtree
_add_lv_to_dtree
_create_partial_dtree
_tree_action
dev_manager_activate
_lv_activate_lv
_lv_resume
lv_resume_if_active
When udev flags are calculated by '_get_udev_flags', it is done by referencing
the 'logical_volume' structure. Those flags are then passed down into
'dm_tree_add_dev_with_udev_flags', which in turn passes them to '_add_dev'.
Unfortunately, when '_add_dev' is finding the dependencies, it has no way to
calculate their proper udev_flags. This is because it is below the DM/LVM
divide - it doesn't have access to the logical_volume structure. In fact,
'_add_dev' simply reuses the udev_flags given for the initial device! This
virtually guarentees the udev_flags are wrong for all the dependencies unless
they are reset by some other mechanism. The current code provides no such
mechanism. Even if '_add_new_lv_to_dtree' were called on the sub-devices -
which it isn't - entries already in the tree are simply passed over, failing
to reset any udev_flags. The solution must retain its implicit nature of
discovering dependencies and be able to go back over the dependencies found
to properly set the udev_flags.
My solution simply calls a new function before leaving '_add_new_lv_to_dtree'
that iterates over the dtree nodes to properly reset the udev_flags of any
children. It is important that this function occur after the '_add_dev' has
done its job of querying the kernel for a list of dependencies. It is this
list of children that we use to look up their respective LVs and properly
calculate the udev_flags.
This solution has worked for single machine, cluster, and cluster w/ exclusive
activation.
Before, we used to display "Can't remove open logical volume" which was
generic. There 3 possibilities of how a device could be opened:
- used by another device
- having a filesystem on that device which is mounted
- opened directly by an application
With the help of sysfs info, we can distinguish the first two situations.
The third one will be subject to "remove retry" logic - if it's opened
quickly (e.g. a parallel scan from within a udev rule run), this will
finish quickly and we can remove it once it has finished. If it's a
legitimate application that keeps the device opened, we'll do our best
to remove the device, but we will fail finally after a few retries.
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.
~> lvconvert --splitmirrors 1 --trackchanges vg/lv
The '--trackchanges' option allows a user the ability to use an image of
a RAID1 array for the purposes of temporary read-only access. The image
can be merged back into the array at a later time and only the blocks that
have changed in the array since the split will be resync'ed. This
operation can be thought of as a partial split. The image is never completely
extracted from the array, in that the array reserves the position the device
occupied and tracks the differences between the array and the split image via
a bitmap. The image itself is rendered read-only and the name (<LV>_rimage_*)
cannot be changed. The user can complete the split (permanently splitting the
image from the array) by re-issuing the 'lvconvert' command without the
'--trackchanges' argument and specifying the '--name' argument.
~> lvconvert --splitmirrors 1 --name my_split vg/lv
Merging the tracked image back into the array is done with the '--merge'
option (included in a follow-on patch).
~> lvconvert --merge vg/lv_rimage_<n>
The internal mechanics of this are relatively simple. The 'raid' device-
mapper target allows for the specification of an empty slot in an array
via '- -'. This is what will be used if a partial activation of an array
is ever required. (It would also be possible to use 'error' targets in
place of the '- -'.) If a RAID image is found to be both read-only and
visible, then it is considered separate from the array and '- -' is used
to hold it's position in the array. So, all that needs to be done to
temporarily split an image from the array /and/ cause the kernel target's
bitmap to track (aka "mark") changes made is to make the specified image
visible and read-only. To merge the device back into the array, the image
needs to be returned to the read/write state of the top-level LV and made
invisible.
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
