If the data being requested is present in last_[extra_]devbuf,
return that directly instead of reading it from disk again.
Typical LVM2 access patterns request data within two adjacent 4k blocks
so we eliminate some read() system calls by always reading at least 8k.
Callers that read larger amounts of data now get a pointer to read-only
data directly without copying it through an intermediate buffer. This
data is owned by the device layer so the callers no longer free it.
If it obtains the data, it passes it into the supplied callback function
and returns 1. Otherwise the callback receives failed = 1.
Updated config_file_read_fd to use this and similarly return the data
via a callback fn of its own.
Rename dev_read() to dev_read_buf() - the function that reads data
into a supplied buffer.
Introduce a new dev_read() that allocates the buffer it returns and
switch the important users over to this. No caller may change the
returned data. (For now, callers are responsible for freeing it after
use, but later the device layer will take full ownership.)
dev_read_buf() should only be used for tiny buffers or unimportant code
(such as the old disk formats).
The creation of wrapped around metadata - where the start of metadata is
written up to the end of the buffer and the remainder follows back at
the start of the buffer - is now restricted to cases where writing the
metadata in one piece wouldn't fit. This shouldn't happen in 'normal'
usage so let's begin treating the code for this as a special case that
can be ignored when optimising 'normal' cases.
Mark the first metadata area on each text format PV as MDA_PRIMARY.
Pass this information down to the device layer so that when
there are two metadata areas on a block device, we can easily
distinguish two independent streams of I/O.
Introduce enum dev_io_reason to categorise block device I/O
in debug messages so it's obvious what it is for.
DEV_IO_SIGNATURES /* Scanning device signatures */
DEV_IO_LABEL /* LVM PV disk label */
DEV_IO_MDA_HEADER /* Text format metadata area header */
DEV_IO_MDA_CONTENT /* Text format metadata area content */
DEV_IO_FMT1 /* Original LVM1 metadata format */
DEV_IO_POOL /* Pool metadata format */
DEV_IO_LV /* Content written to an LV */
DEV_IO_LOG /* Logging messages */
- Use 'lvmcache' consistently instead of 'metadata cache'
- Always use 5 characters for source line number
- Remember to convert uuids into printable form
- Use <no name> rather than (null) when VG has no name.
Replaced the confusing device error message "not found (or ignored by
filtering)" by either "not found" or "excluded by a filter".
(Later we should be able to say which filter.)
Left the the liblvm code paths alone.
Older udev versions (udev < v165), don't have the official
udev_device_get_is_initialized function available to query for
device initialization state in udev database. Also, devices don't
have USEC_INITIALIZED udev db variable set - this is bound to the
udev_device_get_is_initialized fn functionality.
In this case, check for "DEVLINKS" variable instead - all block devices
have at least one symlink set for the node (the "/dev/block/<major:minor>".
This symlink is set by default basic udev rules provided by udev directly.
We'll use this as an alternative for the check that initial udev
processing for a device has already finished.
Treat loop device created with 'losetup -P' as regular
partitioned device - so if it has partition table,
prevent its usage in commands like 'pvcreate'.
Before 'pvcreate /dev/loop0' could have erased and formated as PV,
after this patch, device is filtered out and cannot be used.
When not obtaining device from udev, we are doing deep devdir scan,
and at the same time we try to insert everything what /sys/dev/block
knows about. However in case lvm2 is configured to use nonstardard
devdir this way it will see (and scan) devices from a real system.
lvm2 test suite is using its own test devdir with its
own device nodes. To avoid touching real /dev devices, validate
the device node exist in give dir and do not insert such device
into a cache.
With obtain list from udev this patch has no effect
(the normal user path).
We have _insert_dirs() for udev and non-udev compilation.
Compiling without udev missed to call dev_cache_index_devs().
Move the call after _insert_dirs() call so both compilation
gets it.
/sys/dev/block is available since kernel version 2.2.26 (~ 2008):
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-dev
The VGID/LVID indexing code relies on this feature so skip indexing
if it's not available to avoid error messages about inability to open
/sys/dev/block directory.
We're not going to provide fallback code to read the /sys/block/
instead in this case as that's not that efficient - it needs extra
reads for getting major:minor and reading partitions would also
pose further reads and that's not worth it.
If obtain_device_list_from_udev=0, LVM can make use of persistent .cache
file. This cache file contains only devices which underwent filters in
previous LVM command run. But we need to iterate over all block devices
to create the VGID/LVID index completely for the device mismatch check
to be complete as well.
This patch iterates over block devices found in sysfs to generate the
VGID/LVID index in dev cache if obtain_device_list_from_udev=0
(if obtain_device_list_from_udev=1, we always read complete list of
block devices from udev and we ignore .cache file so we don't need
to look in sysfs for the complete list).
For the case when we print device name associated with struct device
that was not found in /dev, but in sysfs, for example when printing
devices where LV device mismatch is found.
It's correct to have a DM device that has no DM UUID assigned
so no need to issue error message in this case. Also, if the
device doesn't have DM UUID, it's also clear it's not an LVM LV
(...when looking for VGID/LVID while creating VGID/LVID indices
in dev cache).
For example:
$ dmsetup create test --table "0 1 linear /dev/sda 0"
And there's no PV in the system.
Before this patch (spurious error message issued):
$ pvs
_get_sysfs_value: /sys/dev/block/253:2/dm/uuid: no value
With this patch applied (no spurious error message):
$ pvs
If we're using persistent .cache file, we're reading this file instead
of traversing the /dev content. Fix missing indexing by VGID and LVID
here - hook this into persistent_filter_load where we populate device
cache from persistent .cache file instead of scanning /dev.
For example, inducing situation in which we warn about different device
actually used than what LVM thinks should be used based on metadata:
$ lsblk -s /dev/vg/lvol0
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
vg-lvol0 253:4 0 124M 0 lvm
`-loop1 7:1 0 128M 0 loop
$ lvmconfig --type diff
global {
use_lvmetad=0
}
devices {
obtain_device_list_from_udev=0
}
(obtain_device_list_from_udev=0 also means the persistent .cache file is used)
Before this patch - pvs is fine as it does the dev scan, but lvs relies
on persistent .cache file and it misses the VGID/LVID indices to check
and warn about incorrect devices used:
$ pvs

It's possible that while a device is already referenced in sysfs, the node
is not yet in /dev directory.
This may happen in some rare cases right after LVs get created - we sync
with udev (or alternatively we create /dev content ourselves) while VG
lock is held. However, dev scan is done without VG lock so devices may
already be in sysfs, but /dev may not be updated yet if we call LVM command
right after LV creation (so the fact that fs_unlock is done within VG
lock is not usable here much). This is not a problem with devtmpfs as
there's at least kernel name for device in /dev as soon as the sysfs
item exists, but we still support environments without devtmpfs or
where different directory for dev nodes is used (e.g. our test suite).
This patch covers these situations by tracking such devices in
_cache.sysfs_only_names helper hash for the vgid/lvid check to work still.
This also resolves commit 6129d2e64d
which was then reverted by commit 109b7e2095
due to performance issues it may have brought (...and it didn't resolve
the problem fully anyway).
UUID for LV is either "LVM-<vg_uuid><lv_uuid>" or "LVM-<vg_uuid><lv_uuid>-<suffix>".
The code before just checked the length of the UUID based on the first
template, not the variant with suffix - so LVs with this suffix were not
processed properly.
For example a thin pool LV (as an example of an LV that contains
sub LVs where UUIDs have suffixes):
[0] fedora/~ # lsblk -s /dev/vg/lvol1

Check if the value we read from sysfs is not blank and replace the '\n'
at the end only when needed ('\n' should usually be there for sysfs values,
but better check this).
It's possible for an LVM LV to use a device during activation which
then differs from device which LVM assumes based on metadata later on.
For example, such device mismatch can occur if LVM doesn't have
complete view of devices during activation or if filters are
misbehaving or they're incorrectly set during activation.
This patch adds code that can detect this mismatch by creating
VG UUID and LV UUID index while scanning devices for device cache.
The VG UUID index maps VG UUID to a device list. Each device in the
list has a device layered above as a holder which is an LVM LV device
and for which we know the VG UUID (and similarly for LV UUID index).
We can acquire VG and LV UUID by reading /sys/block/<dm_dev_name>/dm/uuid.
So these indices represent the actual state of PV device use in
the system by LVs and then we compare that to what LVM assumes
based on metadata.
For example:
[0] fedora/~ # lsblk /dev/sdq /dev/sdr /dev/sds /dev/sdt
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sdq 65:0 0 104M 0 disk
|-vg-lvol0 253:2 0 200M 0 lvm
`-mpath_dev1 253:3 0 104M 0 mpath
sdr 65:16 0 104M 0 disk
`-mpath_dev1 253:3 0 104M 0 mpath
sds 65:32 0 104M 0 disk
|-vg-lvol0 253:2 0 200M 0 lvm
`-mpath_dev2 253:4 0 104M 0 mpath
sdt 65:48 0 104M 0 disk
`-mpath_dev2 253:4 0 104M 0 mpath
In this case the vg-lvol0 is mapped onto sdq and sds becauset this is
what was available and seen during activation. Then later on, sdr and
sdt appeared and mpath devices were created out of sdq+sdr (mpath_dev1)
and sds+sdt (mpath_dev2). Now, LVM assumes (correctly) that mpath_dev1
and mpath_dev2 are the PVs that should be used, not the mpath
components (sdq/sdr, sds/sdt).

Addressing RHBZ:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1313377
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.

$ mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1

$ pvcreate /dev/sda1

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

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...

When pvscan --cache --major --minor command is issued from

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).
