Non-dm devices have ID_PART_TABLE_TYPE variable exported in
udev db from blkid scan for *both* whole devices and partitions.
We used ID_PART_ENTRY_DISK in addition to decide whether this
is the whole device or partition and then we filtered out only
whole devices where the partition table really is.
However, ID_PART_ENTRY_DISK was added in blkid 2.20 so we need
to use a different set of variables to decide on whole devices
and partitions on systems where older blkid is still used.
Now, we use ID_PART_TABLE_TYPE to detect that there's something
related to partitioning with this device and we use DEVTYPE variable
instead to decide between whole device (DEVTYPE="disk") and partition
(DEVTYPE="partition").
For dm devices it's simpler, we have ID_PART_TABLE_TYPE variable\
set in udev db for whole devices. It's not set for partitions,
hence we don't need more variable in addition to make the decision
on whole device vs. partition (dm devices do not have regular
partitions, hence DEVTYPE can't be used anyway, it's always set
to "disk" for whole disks and partitions).
Add "size" and "size_seqno" to struct device to cache device's size
and also to control its lifetime - the cached value is valid as long
as the global _dev_size_seqno is equal to the device's size_seqno,
otherwise we need to get the size again and cache the new value.
This patch also adds new dev_size_seqno_inc() fn for the appropriate
parts of the code to increment current global value of _dev_size_seqno
and hence to cause all currently cached values for device sizes to
be invalidated.
The device size is now cached because we're planning to reuse this
information for further checks and we want to avoid checking it more
than necessary to save resources.
Before commit c1f246fedf,
_get_all_devices() did a full device scan before
get_vgnameids() was called. The full scan in
_get_all_devices() is from calling dev_iter_create(f, 1).
The '1' arg forces a full scan.
By doing a full scan in _get_all_devices(), new devices
were added to dev-cache before get_vgnameids() began
scanning labels. So, labels would be read from new devices.
(e.g. by the first 'pvs' command after the new device appeared.)
After that commit, _get_all_devices() was called
after get_vgnameids() was finished scanning labels.
So, new devices would be missed while scanning labels.
When _get_all_devices() saw the new devices (after
labels were scanned), those devices were added to
the .cache file. This meant that the second 'pvs'
command would see the devices because they would be
in .cache.
Now, the full device scan is factored out of
_get_all_devices() and called by itself at the
start of the command so that new devices will
be known before get_vgnameids() scans labels.
The udev_device_get_is_initialized is available since libudev version
165. Older versions are still used somewhere (e.g. RHEL6). So better
check for this fn and use it only if it's available.
Udev db records are marked as not initialized (incomplete) on timeout.
Issue an error message whenever LVM finds such records so users are
aware that something's going wrong with udev db.
This is important in case we use devices/external_device_info_source="udev"
where udev database records are used to do various filtering decisions.
For example:
udev log of timed out worker:
Nov 11 13:02:25 raw.virt systemd-udevd[607]: seq 1997 '/devices/virtual/block/dm-2' is taking a long time
Nov 11 13:04:25 raw.virt systemd-udevd[607]: seq 1997 '/devices/virtual/block/dm-2' killed
Nov 11 13:04:25 raw.virt systemd-udevd[607]: worker [11221] terminated by signal 9 (Killed)
Nov 11 13:04:25 raw.virt systemd-udevd[607]: worker [11221] failed while handling '/devices/virtual/block/dm-2'
...
LVM also issues error message visibly if incomplete udev db record is found,
devices/external_device_info_source="udev" is set:
$ pvs
Udev database has incomplete information about device /dev/dm-2.
Failed to get external handle for device /dev/dm-2 [udev].
...
Doing 'stat' checking first and later opening is racy.
And since we do not really care about any 'status' info
here and we read 'sysfs' here - just drop whole 'stat()'
call and directly handle error from failing 'fopen()'.
The former patch(dab3ebce4c) is a little bit strict. For example, it is
OK to create PV on unpartitioned DASD devices with LDL formatted. So
after lvm version containing the patch, LVs created on those devices
could not be found.

Some signatures are spread around the disk in several copies, mainly for
backup. Make libblkid to detect these extra copies - there was missing
"blkid_probe_step_back" fn call after successful wipe of previous signature
copy.
An example with FAT table which has copies:
$ mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
Before this patch:
$ pvcreate /dev/sda1
WARNING: vfat signature detected on /dev/sda1 at offset 54. Wipe it? [y/n]: y
Wiping vfat signature on /dev/sda1.
Physical volume "/dev/sda1" successfully created
With this patch applied:
$ pvcreate /dev/sda1
WARNING: vfat signature detected on /dev/sda1 at offset 54. Wipe it? [y/n]: y
Wiping vfat signature on /dev/sda1.
WARNING: vfat signature detected on /dev/sda1 at offset 0. Wipe it? [y/n]: y

WARNING: vfat signature detected on /dev/sda1 at offset 510. Wipe it? [y/n]: y

As part of fix that came with cf700151eb,
I forgot to add the check whether the result of stat was successful or
not. This bug caused uninitialized buffer to be used for entries
from .cache file which are no longer valid.
This bug may have caused these uninitialized values to be used further,
for example (see the unreal (2567,590944) representing major:minor
pair):
$ pvs
/dev/abc: stat failed: No such file or directory
Path /dev/abc no longer valid for device(2567,590944)
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/mapper/test lvm2 --- 104.00m 104.00m
/dev/vda2 rhel lvm2 a-- 9.51g 0
This is a regression introduced by commit
6c0e44d5a2 which changed
the way dev_cache_get fn works - before this patch, when a
device was not found, it fired a full rescan to correct the
cache. However, the change coming with that commit missed
this full_rescan call, causing the lvmcache to still contain
info about PVs which should be filtered now.
Such situation may have happened by coincidence of using
old persistent cache (/etc/lvm/cache/.cache) which does not
reflect the actual state anymore, a device name/symlink which
now points to a device which should be filtered and a fact we
keep info about usable DM devices in .cache no matter what
the filter setting is.
This bug could be hidden though by changes introduced in
commit f1a000a477 as it
calls full_rescan earlier before this problem is hit.
But we need to fix this anyway for the dev_cache_get
to be correct if we happen to use the same code path
again somewhere sometime.
For example, simple reproducer was (before commit
1a000a477558e157532d5f2cd2f9c9139d4f87c):
- /dev/sda contains a PV header with UUID y5PzRD-RBAv-7sBx-V3SP-vDmy-DeSq-GUh65M
- lvm.conf: filter = [ "r|.*|" ]
- rm -f .cache (to start with clean state)
- dmsetup create test --table "0 8388608 linear /dev/sda 0" (8388608 is
just the size of the /dev/sda device I use in the reproducer)
- pvs (this will create .cache file which contains
"/dev/disk/by-id/lvm-pv-uuid-y5PzRD-RBAv-7sBx-V3SP-vDmy-DeSq-GUh65M"
as well as "/dev/mapper/test" and the target node "/dev/dm-1" - all the
usable DM mappings (and their symlinks) get into the .cache file even
though the filter "is set to "ignore all" - we do this - so far it's OK)
- dmsetup remove test (so we end up with /dev/disk/by-id/lvm-pv-uuid-...
pointing to the /dev/sda now since it's the underlying device
containing the actual PV header)
- now calling "pvs" with such .cache file and we get:
$ pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/disk/by-id/lvm-pv-uuid-y5PzRD-RBAv-7sBx-V3SP-vDmy-DeSq-GUh65M vg lvm2 a-- 4.00g 0
Even though we have set filter = [ "r|.*|" ] in the lvm.conf file!
Comply with the rules we have for log_error and log_warn...
$ pvcreate /dev/sda1

libblkid may return the list of signatures found, but it may not
provide offset and size for each signature detected. This may
happen in case signatures are mixed up or there are more, possibly
overlapping, signatures found.
Make lvm commands pass if such situation happens and we're using
--force (or any stronger force method).
For example:

$ pvcreate --force /dev/sda1

Replace misleading "not found" in the log message when
devices/preferred_names is set to empty array:
Really not found:

Found, but empty:

device/dev-cache.c:689 devices/preferred_names is empty: using built-in preferences
Example:
/dev/loop0 and /dev/loop1 are duplicates,
created by copying one backing file to the
other.
'identity /dev/loopX' creates an identity
mapping for loopX named idmloopX, which
adds a duplicate for the named device.
The duplicate selection code for lvmetad is
incomplete, and lvmetad is disabled for this
example.

When pvscan --cache --major --minor command is issued from
udev REMOVE event, it basically resulted into a whole device
scan since the device was missing. So avoid such scan
and first check via /sysfs (when available) if such device actually
exists.
Dop unused value assignments.
Unknown is detected via other combination
(!linear && !striped).
Also change the log_error() message into a warning,
since the function is not really returning error,
but still keep the INTERNAL_ERROR.
Ret value is always set later.
We exclude some signatures from being wiped when using blkid wiping.
These are signatures which we simply overwrite. For example, the
LVM2_member signature which denotes a PV - if we call pvcreate on
existing PV, we just overwrite the PV header, no need to wipe it.
Previously, we counted such signatures as if they were wiped
and they were counted in the final number of wiped signatures
that _wipe_known_signatures_with_blkid fn returned in the "wiped"
output arg. Then the code checking this output arg could be
mislead that wiping happened while no wiping took place in real
and we could fire some code uselessly based on this information
(e.g. refreshing filters/rescanning - see also
commit 6b4066585f).
Before, we refreshed filters and we did full rescan of devices if
we passed through wiping (wipe_known_signatures fn call). However,
this fn returns success even if no signatures were found and so
nothing was wiped. In this case, it's not necessary to do the
filter refresh/rescan of devices as nothing changed clearly.
This patch exports number of wiped signatures from all the
wiping functions below. The caller (_pvcreate_check) then checks
whether any wiping was done at all and if not, no refresh/rescan
is done, saving some time and resources.
Partitioned devices are marked in udev db as:
ID_PART_TABLE="<partition table type name>"
and at the same time they are *not* marked with:
ID_PART_ENTRY_DISK="<parent disk major:minor>"
Where partition table type name is dos/gpt/... But checking the presence
of this variable is enough for LVM here - it just needs to know whether
there's a partition table or not, not interested in the actual type.
The same applies for parent disk major:minor.
Normally, if there are partitions defined on top of device-mapper
device, there should be a device-mapper device created for each
partiton on top of the old one and once the underlying DM device
is used by another devices (partition mappings in this case),
it can't be used as a PV anymore.
However, sometimes, it may happen the partition mappings are
missing - either the partitioning tool is not creating them if
it does not contain full support for device-mapper devices or
the mappings were removed.
Better safe than sorry - check for partition header on DM devs
and filter them out as unsuitable for PVs in case the check is
positive. Whatever the user is doing, let's do our best to prevent
unwanted corruption (...by running pvcreate on top of such device
that would corrupt the partition header).
The code in dev_iter_create assumes that if a filter can be wiped, doing so will
always trigger a call to _full_scan. This is not true for composite filters
though, since they can always be wiped in principle, but there is no way to know
that a component filter inside will exist that actually triggers the scan.
Avoid playing with +1.
PATH_MAX code needs probably more thinking anyway, since
there is no MAX path in Linux - user may easily create path
with 64kB chars - so 4kB buffer is surelly not enough for
such dirs.
Note:
http://insanecoding.blogspot.cz/2007/11/pathmax-simply-isnt.html
The list of strings is used quite frequently and we'd like to reuse
this simple structure for report selection support too. Make it part
of libdevmapper for general reuse throughout the code.
This also simplifies the LVM code a bit since we don't need to
include and manage lvm-types.h anymore (the string list was the
only structure defined there).
