55d83f9f6e mirror: block_on_error only with monitoring
When user configured lvm2 to NOT user monitoring, activated mirror
actually hang upon error and it's quite unusable moment.

So instead Warn those 'brave' non-monitoring users about possible
problem and activation mirror without blocking error handling.

This also makes it a bit simpler for test suite to handle trouble
cases when test is running without  dmeventd.

112846ce0b activation: support activation of component LVs
Occasionaly users may need to peek into 'component devices.
Normally lvm2 does not let users activation component.

This patch adds special mode where user can activate
component LV in a 'read-only' mode i.e.:

lvchange -ay vg/pool_tdata

All devices can be deactivated with:

lvchange -an vg  |  vgchange -an....

1e2420bca8 commands: new method for defining commands
. 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.

199b7b55c2 lvmcache: fix duplicate handling with multiple scans
Some commands scan labels to populate lvmcache multiple
times, i.e. lvmcache_init, scan labels to fill lvmcache,
lvmcache_destroy, then later repeat

Each time labels are scanned, duplicates are detected,
and preferred devices are chosen.  Each time this is done
within a single command, we want to choose the same
preferred devices.  So, check for existing preferences
when choosing preferred devices.

This also fixes a problem with the list of unused duplicate
devs when run in an lvm shell.  The devs had been allocated
from cmd memory, resulting in invalid list entries between
commands.

7fd4119d24 liblvm: allow config settings to be read without full lvm cmd
A program may be using liblvm2app for simply checking a config
setting in lvm.conf.  In this case, a full lvm context is not
needed, only cmd->cft (which are the config settings read from
lvm.conf).

lvm_config_find_bool() can now be passed a NULL lvm context
in which case it will only create cmd->cft, check the config
setting asked for, and destroy the cmd.

make it possible for the command to switch between original funcionality
where no historical LVs are processed and functionality where historical
LVs are taken into account (and reported or processed further). The switch
between these modes is done using the '-H|--history' switch on command
line.

The include_historical_lvs state is then passed to process_each_* fns
using the "include_historical_lvs" field within struct processing_handle.

32e22a0037 lvmlockd: rescan lockd VG in two new cases
Previously, a command would only rescan a lockd VG
when lvmetad returned the "vg_invalid" flag indicating
that the cached copy was invalid (which is done by
lvmlockd.)  This is still the only usual reason for
rescanning a lockd VG, but two new special cases are
added where we also do the rescan:

. When the --shared option is used to display lockd VGs
  from hosts not using lvmlockd.  This is the same case
  as using --foreign to display foreign VGs, but --shared
  was missing the corresponding bits to rescan the VGs.

. When a lockd VG is allowed to be read for displaying
  after failing to acquire the lock from lvmlockd.  In
  this case, the usual mechanism for validating the
  cache is missed, so assume the cache would have been
  invalidated.  (This had been a previous todo item
  that was lost during other cleanup.)

These were long-standing todos that were lost track of.

global lock.

b4be988732 vgchange/lvchange: enforce the shared VG lock from lvmlockd
The vgchange/lvchange activation commands read the VG, and
don't write it, so they acquire a shared VG lock from lvmlockd.
When other commands fail to acquire a shared VG lock from
lvmlockd, a warning is printed and they continue without it.
(Without it, the VG metadata they display from lvmetad may
not be up to date.)

vgchange/lvchange -a shouldn't continue without the shared
lock for a couple reasons:

. Usually they will just continue on and fail to acquire the
  LV locks for activation, so continuing is pointless.

. More importantly, without the sh VG lock, the VG metadata
  used by the command may be stale, and the LV locks shown
  in the VG metadata may no longer be current.  In the
  case of sanlock, this would result in odd, unpredictable
  errors when lvmlockd doesn't find the expected lock on
  disk.  In the case of dlm, the invalid LV lock could be
  granted for the non-existing LV.

The solution is to not continue after the shared lock fails,
in the same way that a command fails if an exclusive lock fails.

this back.

125cd06698 conf: make time format configurable
Make it possible to define format for time that is displayed.
The way the format is defined is equal to the way that is used
for strftime function, although not all formatting options as
used in strftime are available for LVM2 - the set is restricted
(e.g. we do not allow newline to be printed). The lvm.conf
comments contain the whole list that LVM2 accepts for time format
together with brief description (copied from strftime man page).

For example:
(defaults used - the format is the same as used before this patch)
$ lvs -o+time vg/lvol0 vg/lvol1
  LV    VG   Attr       LSize Time
  lvol0 vg   -wi-a----- 4.00m 2015-06-25 16:18:34 +0200
  lvol1 vg   -wi-a----- 4.00m 2015-06-29 09:17:11 +0200

(using 'time_format = "@%s"' in lvm.conf - number of seconds
since the Epoch)
$ lvs -o+time vg/lvol0 vg/lvol1
  LV    VG   Attr       LSize Time
  lvol0 vg   -wi-a----- 4.00m @1435241914

438a65dfdb display: drop allocation from display_lvname
Use of display_lvname() in plain log_debug() may accumulate memory in
command context mempool. Use instead small ringbuffer which allows to
store cuple (10 ATM) names so upto 10 full names can be used at one.

We are not keeping full VG/LV names as it may eventually consume larger
amount of RAM resouces if vgname is longer and lots of LVs are in use.

Note: if there would be ever needed for displaing more names at once,
the limit should be raised (e.g. log_debug() would need to print more
then 10 LVs on a single line).

dd6a202831 lvchange: deactivate is always possible in foreign vgs
The only realistic way for a host to have active LVs in a
foreign VG is if the host's system_id (or system_id_source)
is changed while LVs are active.

In this case, the active LVs produce an warning, and access
to the VG is implicitly allowed (without requiring --foreign.)
This allows the active LVs to be deactivated.

In this case, rescanning PVs for the VG offers no benefit.
It is not possible that rescanning would reveal an LV that
is active but wasn't previously in the VG metadata.

8668a9e81c systemid: silently ignore foreign vgs unless named
A foreign VG should be silently ignored by a reporting/display
command like 'vgs'.  If the reporting/display command specifies
a foreign VG by name on the command line, it should produce an
error message.

Scanning commands pvscan/vgscan/lvscan are always allowed to
read and update caches from all PVs, including those that belong
to foreign VGs.

Other non-report/display/scan commands always ignore a foreign
VG, or report an error if they attempt to use a foreign VG.

vgimport should always invalidate the lvmetad cache because
lvmetad likely holds a pre-vgexported copy of the VG.
(This is unrelated to using foreign VGs; the pre-vgexported
VG may have had no system_id at all.)

5011cac9cf filters: add cmd->full_filter - composite of cmd->filter and cmd->lvmetad_filter
There are actually three filter chains if lvmetad is used:
  - cmd->lvmetad_filter used when when scanning devices for lvmetad
  - cmd->filter used when processing lvmetad responses
  - cmd->full_fiilter (which is just cmd->lvmetad_filter + cmd->filter chained together) used
    for remaining situations

This patch adds the third one - "cmd->full_filter" - currently this is
used if device processing does not fall into any of the groups before,
for example, devices which does not have the PV label yet and we're just
creating a new one or we're processing the devices where the list of the
devices (PVs) is not returned by lvmetad initially.

Currently, the cmd->full_filter is used exactly in these functions:
  - lvmcache_label_scan
  - _pvcreate_check
  - pvcreate_vol
  - lvmdiskscan
  - pvscan
  - _process_each_label

If lvmetad is used, then simply cmd->full_filter == cmd->filter because
cmd->lvmetad_filter is NULL in this case.

be75076dfc activation: Add "degraded" activation mode
Currently, we have two modes of activation, an unnamed nominal mode
(which I will refer to as "complete") and "partial" mode.  The
"complete" mode requires that a volume group be 'complete' - that
is, no missing PVs.  If there are any missing PVs, no affected LVs
are allowed to activate - even RAID LVs which might be able to
tolerate a failure.  The "partial" mode allows anything to be
activated (or at least attempted).  If a non-redundant LV is
missing a portion of its addressable space due to a device failure,
it will be replaced with an error target.  RAID LVs will either
activate or fail to activate depending on how badly their
redundancy is compromised.

This patch adds a third option, "degraded" mode.  This mode can
be selected via the '--activationmode {complete|degraded|partial}'
option to lvchange/vgchange.  It can also be set in lvm.conf.
The "degraded" activation mode allows RAID LVs with a sufficient
level of redundancy to activate (e.g. a RAID5 LV with one device
failure, a RAID6 with two device failures, or RAID1 with n-1
failures).  RAID LVs with too many device failures are not allowed
to activate - nor are any non-redundant LVs that may have been
affected.  This patch also makes the "degraded" mode the default
activation mode.

The degraded activation mode does not yet work in a cluster.  A
new cluster lock flag (LCK_DEGRADED_MODE) will need to be created
to make that work.  Currently, there is limited space for this
extra flag and I am looking for possible solutions.  One possible
solution is to usurp LCK_CONVERT, as it is not used.  When the
locking_type is 3, the degraded mode flag simply gets dropped and
the old ("complete") behavior is exhibited.

da545ce3b4 tools: add --binary arg to pvs,vgs,lvs and {pv,vg,lv}display -C and report/binary_values_as_numeric lvm.conf option
The --binary option, if used, causes all the binary values reported
in reporting commands to be displayed as "0" or "1" instead of descriptive
literal values (value "unknown" is still used for values that could not be
determined).

Also, add report/binary_values_as_numeric lvm.conf option with the same
functionality as the --binary option (the --binary option prevails
if both --binary cmd option and report/binary_values_as_numeric lvm.conf
option is used at the same time). The report/binary_values_as_numeric is
also profilable.

This makes it easier to use and check lvm reporting command output in scripts.

c42f72867a config: attach cft_check_handle to each config tree instead of global cmd_context
Before, the cft_check_handle used to direct configuration checking
was part of cmd_context. It's better to attach this as part of the
exact config tree against which the check is done. This patch moves
the cft_check_handle out of cmd_context and it attaches it to the
config tree directly as dm_config_tree->custom->config_source->check_handle.

This change makes it easier to track the config tree check results
and provides less space for bugs as the results are directly attached
to the tree and we don't need to be cautious whether the global value
is correct or not (and whether it needs reinitialization) as it was
in the case when the cft_check_handle was part of cmd_context.

of the cfg_def_item_t/flags)

This patch introduces the "struct cft_check_handle" that defines
configuration check parameters as well as separate place to store
the status (status here means CFG_USED and CFG_VALID flags, formerly
saved in cfg_def_item_t/flags). This struct can hold config check
parameters as well as the status for each config tree separately,
thus making it possible to run several instances of config_def_check
without interference.

ebc236d085 config: add support for loading profiles
This patch adds --profile arg to lvm cmds and adds config/profile_dir
configuration setting to select the directory where profiles are stored
By default it's /etc/lvm/profile.

The profiles are added by using new "add_profile" fn and then loaded
using the "load_profile" fn. All profiles are stored in a cmd context
within the new "struct profile_params":

struct profile_params {
  const char *dir;
  struct profile *global_profile;
  struct dm_list profiles_to_load;
  struct dm_list profiles;
};

...where "dir" is the directory with profiles, "global_profile" is
the profile that is set globally via the --profile arg (IOW, not
set per VG/LV basis based on metadata record) and the "profiles"
is the list with loaded profiles.

c6f48b7c1a refactor: make device type recognition code common for general use
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

386886f71c config: refer to config nodes using assigned IDs
For example, the old call and reference:

  find_config_tree_str(cmd, "devices/dir", DEFAULT_DEV_DIR)

...now becomes:

  find_config_tree_str(cmd, devices_dir_CFG)

So we're referring to the named configuration ID instead
of passing the configuration path and the default value
is taken from central config definition in config_settings.h
automatically.

7f747a0d73 logging: add debug classes
Add log/debug_classes to lvm.conf to allow debug messages to be
classified and filtered at runtime.

The dm_errno field is only used by log_error(), so I've redefined it
for log_debug() messages to hold the message class.

By default, all existing messages appear, but we can add categories that
generate high volumes of data, such as logging all traffic to/from
lvmetad.

LVM metadata knows only of striped segments - not linear ones.
The activation code detects segments with a single stripe and switches

If the new lvm.conf setting is set to 0 (e.g. in a test script), this

e59e2f7c3c Move the core of the lib/config/config.c functionality into libdevmapper,
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.

418663b61c Disable udev fallback by default and add activation/udev_fallback to lvm.conf.
We've used udev fallback code till now to check whether udev
created/removed the entries in /dev correctly and if not,
a repair was done (giving a warning messagea about that).

This patch adds a possibility to enable this additional check
and subsequent fallback only when required (debugging purposes
mostly) and trust udev completely.

So let's disable the fallback code by default and add a new
configuration option "activation/udev_fallback".

(The original code for creating the nodes will still be used
in case the device directory that is set in lvm.conf differs
from the one that udev uses and also when activation/udev_rules
is set to 0 - otherwise we would end up with no nodes/symlinks
at all)

eee66d2a80 When glibc needs buffers for line buffering of input and output buffers, it
allocates these buffers in such way it adds memory page for each such buffer
and size of unlock memory check will mismatch by 1 or 2 pages.

This happens when we print or read lines without '\n' so these buffers are
used. To avoid this extra allocation, use setvbuf to set these bufffers ahead.

We can already detect MD devices internally. But when using MD partitions,

is also used in general, so we need to check whether the original device

e1ab01e3ad Refresh device filters before full device rescan in lvmcache.
The sysfs filter initialise hash of available devices using
scan of /sys/block. We need to refresh even this hash
when performing full scan otherwise the newly appeared
device could be rejected, because there is no entry
in sysfs filter.

This easily could happen when attaching new device
to cluster node. (Only force refresh of context
in clvmd -R works here now).

Unfortunately consequences of this are much worse,
missing device part on that node is replaced with missing segment
(even when no partial arg is selected) and this directly
lead to data corruption.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=538515

Simply fix it by refreshing device filters in lvmcache
before performing the full device scan.

For now we leave the first parameter to these

of the number of files involved in removing the
parameter.
