event based autoactivation is now the only method that lvm
provides for autoactivation.
Setting lvm.conf event_activation=0 can still be used to disable
event based autoactivation commands, but doing so will no longer
enable static autoactivation.
Removes some incorrect and unnecessary checks for other entries
when adding a new devices. The removed checks and corrections were
mostly redundant with what is already done by device id matching.
Other checking is reworked so the warnings are a bit different.
When a device has a wwid (from sysfs), but lvm ignores the wwid,
e.g. because it contains an unreliable "QEMU" value, then lvm
falls back to using IDTYPE=devname (the device name) as the
device id. If the device name changes after reboot, then lvm
automatically searches for the PV on other devices to find the
new device name and correct system.devices. When searching for
the PV, lvm skips looking at devices that would use other id types,
e.g. if a device would use a wwid and not a devname, then it
skips checking it. However, it failed to account for the fact
that a device may have wwid that was ignored, in which case it
should be checked.
. error exit means that lvmdevices --update would make a change.
. remove check of PART field from --check because it isn't used.
. unlink searched_devnames file to ensure check|update will search
The approach to duplicate VGIDs has been that it is not possible
or not allowed, so the behavior has been undefined. The actual
result was unpredictable and/or broken, and generally unhelpful.
Improve this by recognizing the problem, displaying the VGs,
and printing a warning to fix the problem. Beyond this,
using VGs with duplicate VGIDs remains undefined, but should
work well enough to correct the problem with vgchange -u.
It's possible to create this condition without too much difficulty
by cloning PVs, followed by an incomplete attempt at making the two
VGs unique (vgrename and pvchange -u, but missing vgchange -u.)
After a vg_write, this function was used to attempt to
make lvmcache data match the new state written to disk.
It was not updated correctly in a many or most cases,
and the resulting lvmcache is not actually used after
vg_write, making the update unnecessary.
This reverts commit bd2baeaaa6.
This commit broke vgrename because vgrename relies on old bugs
in lvmcache_update_vg_from_write and lvmcache_update_vgname
which need to be fixed first.

Since we check for present DM devices - cache result for
futher use of checking presence of such device.
lvm2 uses cache result for label scan, but also when
it tries to activate or deactivate LV - however only simple
target 'striped' is reasonably supported.
Use disable_dm_devs to be able to control when lv_info()
get cache or uncached results.
TODO: support more type, however this is getting very complicated.
Description stolen from linux d/b/rbd.c L3:
rbd.c -- Export ceph rados objects as a Linux block device
16 partitions seem to make sense according to L90:
#define RBD_SINGLE_MAJOR_PART_SHIFT 4
Running *scan -vvvvvvdddddd yields
#filters/filter-type.c:28 /dev/rbd1p5: Skipping: Unrecognised LVM device type 252
#filters/filter-persistent.c:131 filter caching bad /dev/rbd1p5
right now, and adding
types = ["rbd", 252]
to /e/l/lvm.conf (with the matching "252 rbd" in /p/devices) works as a
per-machine fix:
rbd1 252:16 0 1T 1 disk
|-rbd1p1 252:17 0 243M 1 part
|-rbd1p2 252:18 0 1K 1 part
`-rbd1p5 252:21 0 1023.8G 1 part
`-dev01--vg-root 253:0 0 1023.8G 0 lvm
but rbd is supported by upstream so it'd be nice to have it work OOB
Improve handling of md components that get through the
filter, like the previous improvement for multipath.
If md components get through the filter and trigger
duplicate PV code, then eliminate any devs entirely
that are not an md device.
If multipath component devices get through the filter and
cause lvm to see duplicate PVs, then check the wwid of the
devs and drop the component devices as if they had been
filtered. If a dm mpath device was found among the duplicates
then use that as the PV, otherwise do not use any of the
components as the PV.
"duplicate PVs" associated with multipath configs will no
longer stop commands from working.
Remove the searched_devnames file in a couple more places:
. When hints need refreshing it's possible that a missing
devices file entry could be found by searching devices
again.
. When a devices file entry devname is first found to be
incorrect, a new search for missing entries may be
useful.
When devnames are used as device ids and devnames change,
then new devices need to be located for the PVs. If the old
devname is now used by a filtered device, this was preventing
the code from searching for the new device, so the PV was
reported as missing.
If the optimized label scan fails (using online files),
then clear the device state prior to falling back to the
standard label_scan. This avoids printing output about
unexpected state.
Copy another optimization from pvscan -aay to vgchange -aay.
When using the optimized label scan for only one VG, acquire the
VG lock prior to the scan. This allows vg_read to then skip the
repeated label scan that normally happens after locking the vg.
Include the device name in the /run/lvm/pvs_online/pvid files.
Commands using the pvid file can use the devname to more quickly
find the correct device, vs finding the device using the
major:minor number. If the devname in the pvid file is missing
or incorrect, fall back to using the devno.
For completeness and consistency, adjust the behavior
for some variations of:
vgchange -aay --autoactivation event [vgname]
The current standard use is with a VG name arg, and the
command is only called when all pvs_online files exist.
This is the optimal case, in which only pvs_online devs
are read. This remains the same.
Clean up behaviors for some other unexpected uses of the
command:
. With no VG name arg, the command activates any VGs
that are complete according to pvs_online. If no
pvs_online files exist, it does nothing.
. If a VG name is used but no PVs online files exist for
the VG, or the PVs online files are incomplete, then
consider there could be a problem with the pvs_online
files, and fall back to a full label scan prior to
attempting the activation.
Part of the optimization to avoid a full dev_cache_scan requires
translating major:minor numbers to a device name. If this devno
translation fails, then fall back to doing a full dev_cache_scan
which is slower but certain to provide the info. This preserves
the most important part of the label scanning optimization in the
vgchange aay (avoiding dev_cache_scan is a relatively small part
of the optimized activation compared to label scanning.)
Port another optimization from pvscan -aay to vgchange -aay:
"pvscan: only add device args to dev cache"
This optimization avoids doing a full dev_cache_scan, and
instead populates dev-cache with only the devices in the
VG being activated.
This involves shifting the use of pvs_online files from
the hints interface up to the higher level label_scan
interface. This specialized label_scan is structured
around creating a list of devices from the pvs_online
files. Previously, a list of all devices was created
first, and then reduced based on the pvs_online files.
The initial step of listing all devices was slow when
thousands of devices are present on the system.
This optimization extends the previous optimization that
used pvs_online files to limit the devices that were
actually scanned (i.e. reading to identify the device):
"vgchange -aay: optimize device scan using pvs_online files"
The information in /run/lvm/pvs_online/<pvid> files can
be used to build a list of devices for a given VG.
The pvscan -aay command has long used this information to
activate a VG while scanning only devices in that VG, which
is an important optimization for autoactivation.
This patch implements the same thing through the existing
device hints interface, so that the optimization can be
applied elsewhere. A future patch will take advantage of
this optimization in vgchange -aay, which is now used in
place of pvscan -aay for event activation.
When a device id is set for a device, using an idtype other
than devname, it means that sysfs has been used with the device
to match the device id. So, checking for a sysfs entry for the
device in filter-sysfs is redundant. For any other cases not
covered by this (e.g. devname ids), have filter-sysfs simply
stat /sys/dev/block/major:minor to test if the device exists
in sysfs.
The extensive processing done by filter-sysfs init is removed.
It was taking an immense amount of time with many devices, e.g.
. 1024 PVs in 520 VGs
. 520 concurrent vgchange -ay <vgname> commands
. vgchange scans only PVs in the named VG (based on pvs_online
files from a pending patch)
A large number of the vgchange commands were taking over 1 min,
and nearly half of that time was used by filter-sysfs init.
With this patch, the vgchange commands take about half the time.
When scanning configured /dev dir, avoid entring
directories with different filesystem.
This minimizes risk we will block on i.e. entring
directory with mount point.
