25b733809a Merge with text format branch.
Lots of changes/very little testing so far => there'll be bugs!

Use 'vgcreate -M text' to create a volume group with its metadata stored
in text files.  Text format metadata changes should be reasonably atomic,
with a (basic) automatic recovery mechanism if the system crashes while a
change is in progress.

Add a metadata section to lvm.conf to specify multiple directories if
you want (recommended) to keep multiple copies of the metadata (eg on
different filesystems).

e.g. metadata {
        dirs = ["/etc/lvm/metadata1","/usr/local/lvm/metadata2"]
}

Plenty of refinements still in the pipeline.

15c325f06a o Use new LCK_HOLD flag to indicate whether lock should be held on return
from lock_vol() - otherwise it now attempts to acquire the lock and then
  immediately releases it.
o Extend the id field in struct logical_volume to hold VG uuid + LV uuid
  for format1. This unique lvid can be used directly when calling lock_vol().
o Add the VG uuid to vgcache to make VG uuid lookups possible.  (Another
  step towards using them instead of VG names internally.)

9db196e6c5 o Break creating a snapshot down into:
i)   create cow
   ii)  activate cow
   iii) zero cow
   iv)  deactivate
   v)   add snapshot info
   vi)  reactivate

f4cbeaf0ac o Lock mechanism for LV activation
o #defines for common lock flag combinations
o Try out hyphens instead of colons in device-mapper names - does this
  make messages containing filenames easier to read?

187cf4c97d o Convert lv->id back to lv_number when writing back to disk

o Reset all parameters before use in lvcreate.

812c699c8d Basic support for persistent minor numbers;
slightly different from the current LVM1 method.

  lvcreate --persistent y  --minor 10   (to specify when created)
  lvchange --persistent n  (to turn off)
  lvchange --persistent y  --minor 11   (to change)

--persistent uses a new LV status flag stored on disk
minor number is stored on disk the same way as LVM1 does
(but major number stored is 0; any LVM1 major/minor setting gets lost)

  lvchange -ay --minor 12 (to activate using minor 12, regardless of the
                           on-disk setting, which doesn't get changed)

--minor == -m
--persistent == -M

12a6fcd3a8 Propagate volume group read-only setting down to its logical volumes.
(Might sometimes be safe to relax this restriction.)

4af6dc9663 Allow compilation against a device-mapper that was installed into $DESTDIR
Always check for negative (error) return code from lv_active()
2002-01-18 16:43:19 +00:00

4a624ca055 o ACTIVE is no longer a status flag - lv_active() used to check if an LV
is active in the device-mapper.
o Many operations can be carried out regardless of whether the VG is
  active or not.
o vgscan does not activate anything - use vgchange.
o Change lvrename to support renaming of active LVs.
o Remove '//' appearing in some pathnames.
o Dummy lv_check_segments() for compilation.
