Just like MD filtering that detects components of software RAID (md),
add detection for firmware RAID.
We're not adding any native code to detect this - there are lots of
firmware RAIDs out there which is just out of LVM scope. However,
with current changes with which we're able to get device info from
external sources (e.g. external_device_info_source="udev"), we can
do this easily if the external device status source has this kind
of information - which is the case of "udev" source where the results
of blkid scans are stored.
This detection should cover all firmware RAIDs that blkid can detect and
which are identified as:
ID_FS_TYPE = {adaptec,ddf,hpt45x,hpt37x,isw,jmicron,lsi_mega,nvidia,promise_fasttrack,silicon_medley,via}_raid_member
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.
The filter-partitioned code should contain only checks in "partition" domain.
The check for pv_min_size should actually be a part of filter-usable.
If the device size is less than pv_min_size, such device is not usable
as a PV so this check clearly belongs here logically.
With udev external info source, we can get device size via libudev's
sysfs reading interface and we can avoid opening the device this way
effectively.
mpath components are marked in udev db as:
ID_FS_TYPE="mpath_member"
or
DM_MULTIPATH_DEVICE_PATH="1"
(it depends on udev rule/blkid version used for handling mpath)
Composite filter is a filter that can put several filters in one set.
This patch adds a switch when creating the composite filter which will
enable or disable external device info handles for all the filters
the composite filter encompasses.
We want to use this external device info for majority of the filters
which are in the "lvmetad filter chain" (or the respective part if
we're not using lvmetad).
Following patches will use the enabled external device handle in
concrete filters from the composite filter...
LVM2.2.02.112/tools/toollib.c:1991: leaked_storage: Variable "iter" going out of scope leaks the storage it points to.
LVM2.2.02.112/lib/filters/filter-usable.c:89: leaked_storage: Variable "f" going out of scope leaks the storage it points to.
LVM2.2.02.112/lib/activate/dev_manager.c:1874: leaked_handle: Handle variable "fd" going out of scope leaks the handle.
We can't hang on blocked or suspended devices when the scan is done
for lvmetad update - when the device gets unblocked or resumed, there's
always CHANGE event generated which will fire the udev rule to run
extra pvscan --cache for that device which makes sure that lvmetad
is up-to-date.
filters/filter-usable.c:22: warning: "ucp.check_..." may be used uninitialized in this function
This can't actually be hit in real, but let's clean this up for the compiler
to be happy again.
With this change, the filter chains used look like this now:
A) When *lvmetad is not used*:
- persistent filter -> regex filter -> sysfs filter ->
global regex filter -> type filter ->
usable device filter(FILTER_MODE_NO_LVMETAD) ->
mpath component filter -> partitioned filter ->
md component filter
B) When *lvmetad is used* (two separate filter chains):
- the lvmetad filter chain used when scanning devs for lvmetad update:
sysfs filter -> global regex filter -> type filter ->
usable device filter(FILTER_MODE_PRE_LVMETAD) ->
mpath component filter -> partitioned filter ->
md component filter
- the filter chain used for lvmetad responses:
persistent filter -> usable device filter(FILTER_MODE_POST_LVMETAD) ->
regex filter
Usable device filter is responsible for filtering out unusable DM devices.
The filter has 3 modes of operation:
- FILTER_MODE_NO_LVMETAD:
When this mode is used, we check DM device usability by looking:
- whether device is empty
- whether device is blocked
- whether device is suspended (only on devices/ignore_suspended_devices=1)
- whether device uses an error target
- whether device name/uuid is reserved
- FILTER_MODE_PRE_LVMETAD:
When this mode is used, we check DM device usability by looking:
- whether device is empty
- whether device is suspended (only on devices/ignore_suspended_devices=1)
- whether device uses an error target
- whether device name/uuid is reserved
- FILTER_MODE_POST_LVMETAD:
When this mode is used, we check DM device usability by looking:
- whether device is blocked
- whether device is suspended (only on devices/ignore_suspended_devices=1)
These modes will be used by subsequent patch to create different
instances of this filter, depending on lvmetad use.
Currently, there are 5 things that device_is_usable function checks
(for DM devices only, of course):
- is device empty?
- is device blocked? (mirror)
- is device suspended?
- is device composed of an error target?
- is device name/uuid reserved?
If answer to any of these questions is "yes", then the device is not usable.
This patch just adds possibility to choose what to check for exactly - the
device_is_usable function now accepts struct dev_usable_check_params make
this selection possible. This is going to be used by subsequent patches.
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.

If using persistent filter and we're refreshing filters (just like we
do for pvcreate now after commit 54685c20fc),
we can't rely on getting the primary device of the partition from the cache
as such device could be already filtered by persistent filter and we get
a device cache lookup failure for such device.
For example:
$ lvm dumpconfig --type diff
devices {
obtain_device_list_from_udev=0
}
$lsblk /dev/sda
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 128M 0 disk
`-sda1 8:1 0 127M 0 part
$cat /etc/lvm/cache/.cache | grep sda
"/dev/sda1",
$pvcreate /dev/sda1
dev_is_mpath: failed to get device for 8:1
Physical volume "/dev/sda1" successfully created
The problematic part of the code called dev_cache_get_by_devt
to get the device for the device number supplied. Then the code
used dev_name(dev) to get the name which is then used in check
whether there's any mpath on top of this dev...
This patch uses sysfs to get the base name for the partition
instead, hence avoiding the device cache which is a correct
approach here.
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).
Add CONFIG_FILE_SPECIAL config source id to make a difference between
real configuration tree (like lvm.conf and tag configs) and special purpose
configuration tree (like LVM metadata, persistent filter).
This makes it easier to attach correct customized data to the config
tree that is created out of the source then.
This is a regression caused by commit 3bd9048854.
The error message added with that commit "mpath major %d is not dm major %d" is
superfluous.
When scanning for mpath components, we're looking for a parent device.
But this parent device is not necessarily an mpath device (so the dm device)
if it exists - it can be any other device layered on top (e.g. an MD RAID device).
Split out the partitioned device filter that needs to open the device
and move the multipath filter in front of it.
When a device is multipathed, sending I/O to the underlying paths may
cause problems, the most obvious being I/O errors visible to lvm if a
path is down.
Revert the incorrect <backtrace> messages added when a device doesn't
pass a filter.
Log each filter initialisation to show sequence.
Avoid duplicate 'Using $device' debug messages.
A helper type that helps with identification of the configuration source
which makes handling the configuration cascade a bit easier, mainly
removing and adding configuration trees to cascade dynamically.
Currently, the possible types are:
CONFIG_UNDEFINED - configuration is not defined yet (not initialized)
CONFIG_FILE - one file configuration
CONFIG_MERGED_FILES - configuration that is a result of merging more files into one
CONFIG_STRING - configuration string typed on cmd line directly
CONFIG_PROFILE - profile configuration (the new type of configuration, patches will follow...)
Also, generalize existing "remove_overridden_config_tree" to work with
configuration type identification in a cascade. Before, it was just
the CONFIG_STRING we used. Now, we need some more to add in a
cascade (like the CONFIG_PROFILE). So, we have:
struct dm_config_tree *remove_config_tree_by_source(struct cmd_context *cmd, config_source_t source);
config_source_t config_get_source_type(struct dm_config_tree *cft);
... for removing the tree by its source type from the cascade and
simply getting the source type.
We use mpath filtering (enabled by devices/multipath_component_detection=1
lvm.conf setting) to avoid a situation in which we could end up with
duplicate PVs found. We need to filter out the mpath components and
use only the top-level multipath mapping instead for PV scans.
However, if the there are partitions on multipath components, we need
to filter out these partitions. This patch fixes it so those
partitions found on multipath components are filtered as well.
For example, let's consider following configuration:
The sda and sdb are mpath components, sda1 and sdb1 the partitions
on these components, mpath-test the mpath mapping and mpath-test1
the partition mapping - created automatically by kpartx right
after mpath-test creation. The PV resides on top.
(LVM PV)
|
mpath-test1
|
mpath-test
|
sda1 ---------- sdb1
\ | |/
sda sdb
E.g. for sda1 and sdb1, the code will detect this and it skips
the partition that belongs to the multipath component:
<snippet from the log>
#filters/filter-mpath.c:156 /dev/sda1: Device is a partition, using primary device /dev/sda for mpath component detection
130 #ioctl/libdm-iface.c:1724 dm status (253:2) OF[16384](*1)
131 #filters/filter-mpath.c:196 /dev/sda1: Skipping mpath component device
</snippet from the log>
Othewise, we'd see the same PV label on sda1/sdb1 and mpath-test1
at the same time ending up with "Duplicate PV found...".
Changes:
- move device type registration out of "type filter" (filter.c)
to a separate and new dev-type.[ch] for common use throughout the code
- the structure for keeping the major numbers detected for available
device types and available partitioning available is stored in
"dev_types" structure now
- move common partitioning detection code to dev-type.[ch] as well
together with other device-related functions bound to dev_types
(see dev-type.h for the interface)
The dev-type interface contains all common functions used to detect
subsystems/device types, signature/superblock recognition code,
type-specific device properties and other common device properties
(bound to dev_types), including partitioning support.
- add dev_types instance to cmd context as cmd->dev_types for common use
- use cmd->dev_types throughout as a central point for providing
information about device types
Last commit made dump filter only partially composable.
Add remaining functionality and also support composable wipe,
which is needed, when i.e. vgscan needs to remove cache.
(in release fix)
Add a generic dump operation to filters and make the composite filter call
through to its components. Previously, when global filter was set, the code
would treat the toplevel composite filter's private area as if it belonged a
persistent filter, trying to write nonsense into a non-sensical file.
Also deal with NULL cmd->filter gracefully.
Add verbose message when we will not obtain devices from udev
(i.e. testing is using different udev dir, and the log was
giving misleading info about using udev)
Add proper error message if zalloc from pull would have failed.
Fix typo obolete -> obsolete
Fix this:
pvcreate /dev/scma
Device /dev/scma not found (or ignored by filtering).
