When lvm commands are executed in lvm shell, we cover the whole lvm
command execution within this shell now. That means, all messages logged
and status caught during each command execution is now recorded in the
log report, including overall command's return code.
We may call arg_count/grouped_arg_count/arg_value soon enough that
cmd->arg_values is not set yet.
Normally, when running a command, we execute lvm_run_command which in
turn calls _process_command_line to allocate and parse the command line
values and stores them in cmd->arg_values.
However, if we run lvm shell, this one doesn't accept any command line
options and we parse the command line for each command that is executed
within the lvm shell then. If we used any code that tries to access
cmd->arg_values through any of the the arg handling functions too
early, we could end up with a segfault due to uninitialized (NULL)
cmd->arg_values.
This patch just saves extra checks in all the code where arg handling
may be called too early so that the cmd->arg_values is not set up yet.
This does not apply to any of existing code, but subsequent patches
will need that.
With patches that will follow, this will make it possible to widen log
report coverage when commands are executed from lvm shell so the amount
of messages that may end up in stderr/stdout instead of log report are
minimized.
Add new log_context=shell and with log_object_type=cmd and
log_object_name=<command_name> for command log report to collect
overall return code from last command (this is reported under
log_type=status).
Currently, the output is separated in 3 parts and each part can go into
a separate and user-defined file descriptor:
- common output (stdout by default, customizable by LVM_OUT_FD environment variable)
- error output (stderr by default, customizable by LVM_ERR_FD environment variable)
- report output (stdout by default, customizable by LVM_REPORT_FD environment variable)
For example, each type of output goes to different output file:
[0] fedora/~ # export LVM_REPORT_FD=3
[0] fedora/~ # lvs fedora vg/abc 1>out 2>err 3>report
[0] fedora/~ # cat out
[0] fedora/~ # cat err
Volume group "vg" not found
Cannot process volume group vg

Another example in LVM shell where the report goes to "report" file:

The MD raid6 personality being used to drive lvm raid6 LVs does
read-modify-write updates to any stripes and thus relies on correct
P and Q Syndromes being written during initial synchronization or
it may fail reconstructing proper user data in case of SubLVs failing.
We may not allow the '--nosync' option on
creation of raid6 LVs for that reason.
Update/fix 'man lvcreate' in that regard.
add lvcreate-raid-nosync.sh test script.
- Resolves rhbz1358532
We don't need to refresh whole cmd context if we drop profile after
processing LVM command - just like we don't refresh cmd context when
we're applying the profile. It's because profiles contain only safe
subset of settings which do not require complete cmd context refresh.
This patch calls process_profilable_config instead of
refresh_toolcontext if there was profile applied for the LVM
command only, not --config which requires toolcontext refresh.
The process_profilable_config just sets proper values based on
values of profilable settings, but it does not do complete
reinitialization of various parts (e.g. filters, logging etc.).
'lvchange --resync LV' or 'lvchange --syncaction repair LV' request the
RAID layout specific parity blocks in raid4/5/6 to be recreated or the
mirrored blocks to be copied again from the master leg/copy for raid1/10,
thus not allowing a rebuild of a particular PV.
Introduce repeatable option '--[raid]rebuild PV' to allow to request
rebuilds of specific PVs in a RaidLV which are known to contain corrupt
data (e.g. rebuild a raid1 master leg).
Add test lvchange-rebuild-raid.sh to test/shell doing rebuild
variations on raid1/10 and 5; add aux function check_status_chars
to support the new test.

Prepare for new segment type conversion functionality in cases that
currently fail. In the short-term, we need to do this while limiting
the changes to the code paths for the conversions that are already
supported.
on any thin snap external origin LV which caused a segfault
when none existed as exposed by the vgsplit-thin.sh test.
Only call lv_is_on_pvs() if an external origin LV actually
exists and correct the related splitting logic.
General RAID and RAID segment type specific checks are added
to merge.c. New static _check_raid_seg() is called on each segment
of a RaidLV (which have just one) from check_lv_segments().
New checks caught some unititialized segment members
which are addressed here as well:
- initialize seg->region_size to 0 in lvcreate.c for raid0/raid0_meta
- initialize list seg->origin_list in lv_manip.c
Add matching support for -Z option also we doing full conversion
to cache-pool.
Extending coversion message to show which pool type is created
and whether the metadata will be wiped or remain unmodified.
Follow-up to 27a767d5e8.
Tunning behavior in a way we always prompt when option --zero is NOT specified.
Without -Z lvm expects user wants to 'reset' cache-pool metadata
(they could have been splitted from some cached LV)
If user doesn't want to zero metadata he needs to specify -Zn.
User may also avoid prompting for zeroing by using -Zy for
cache-pool (basically equals using --yes without -Z being given)
(unlike full convert case, there is no cache-pool being converted,
so there is not 'uncoditional' prompt in this case).
When volume was lvconvert-ed to a thin-volume with external origin,
then in case thin-pool was in non-zeroing mode
it's been printing WARNING about not zeroing thin volume - but
this is wanted and expected - so nothing to warn about.
So in this particular use case WARNING needs to be suppressed.
Adding parameter support for lvcreate_params.
So now lvconvert creates 'normal thin LV' in read-only mode
(so any read will 'return 0' for a moment)
then deactivate regular thin LV and reacreate in 'final R/RW' mode
thin LV with external origin and activate again.
When cache pool is reused for a new cached volume, there is
normally no need to 'keep' old cache-pool metadata as this
could cause major data lose.
Unlike with 'lvcreate -H -LX --cachepool' conversion, this lvconvert
path left the metadata unzeroed - partly for making easier some
debugging, but this was rather a bug.
So to keep possible reattach of 'unzeroed' metadata, user
now has to use 'lvconvert -Zn' for such conversion. In this case
the prompt will appear about possibe data loss and to proceed,
user has to confirm such operation. Without -Zn metadata are wiped.
Commit 3928c96a37 introduced
new defaults for raid number of stripes, which may cause
backwards compatibility issues with customer scripts.
Adding configurable option 'raid_stripe_all_devices' defaulting
to '0' (i.e. off = new behaviour) to select the old behaviour
of using all PVs in the VG or those provided on the command line.
In case any scripts rely on the old behaviour, just set
'raid_strip_all_devices = 1'.
- resolves rhbz1354650
The --uuid, --major and --alldevices arguments were incorrectly tested
after confirming argc is > 0, in a branch that only executes if argc
== 0 (i.e. they were unreachable).
Move all device checks before the test for argc and log an appropriate
error before returning.
raid0/raid0_meta type LVs don't have a default number of stripes when
created without '-i/--stripes Stripes' whereas other raid types have one.
Patch sets the default for raid0/raid0_meta to 2 stripes.
The default amount of stripes for raid4/5/10 is changed to 2 and for raid6 to 3
rather than using all PVs in the VG or those provided on the command line.
This is to avoid unintended high number of stripes in case of many PVs.
To select a different amount of stripes from the default,
use 'lvcreate -i/--stripes Stripes'.
- resolves rhbz1354650
Resync attempts on raid0/raid0_meta via 'lvchange --resync ...'
cause segfaults.
'lvchange --syncaction ...' doesn't get rejected either.
Prohibit both on raid0/raid0_meta LVs.
- resolves rhbz1354656
4420d41fea introduced recursive split of lvs which
splits a top-level LV together with it's sub LVs.
This lead to invalid temporary list pointers
causing hangs/OOM situations.
Patch updates the temporary list pointer
referencing a moved sub LV.
- resolves rhbz1354686
Make the --filemap switch take no arguments and instead accept one
or more files on the command line to be mapped and placed into
groups.
This allows --filemap to be used with a glob:
# dmstats create --filemap *
rhel5.10-1.qcow2: Created new group with 87 region(s) as group ID 1564.
rhel5.10.qcow2: Created new group with 8 region(s) as group ID 1651.
rhel7.0-1.qcow2: Created new group with 11 region(s) as group ID 1659.
rhel7.0.qcow2: Created new group with 1454 region(s) as group ID 1670.
vm.img: Created new group with 2 region(s) as group ID 3124.
lvconvert --splitcache VG/CachePool_corig
Allow the split via the hidden/used cache pool for the time being,
since the new lvconvert code did intend to allow it, but was just
missing the exception in the list of hidden LVs that were allowed.
The preferred method for splitcache is to run it on the visible
cache LV, not the hidden cache pool. That may eventually become
the only method since we try to avoid running commands on
hidden LVs.
When a 'dmstats create --filemap' operation fails (e.g. during
open(2), close(2), or dm_stats_create_regions_from_fd()), use the
canonical version of the path. This avoids cryptic/confusing error
messages when symbolic links exist in the path argument given:
# findmnt /var/lib/libvirt/images -otarget,source
TARGET SOURCE
/var/lib/libvirt/images /dev/mapper/vg_hex-lv_images
# readlink /var/lib/libvirt/images/my.img
/boot/my.img
# dmstats create --filemap /var/lib/libvirt/images/my.img
Cannot map file: not a device-mapper device.
Could not create regions from file /var/lib/libvirt/images/my.img
Command failed
Using the canonical path the error is immediately obvious:
# dmstats create --filemap /var/lib/libvirt/images/my.img
Cannot map file: not a device-mapper device.
Could not create regions from file /boot/my.img
Command failed
Grouping is also useful in combination with --segments: creating a
group allows both individual segment data and data for the device
as a whole to be presented in the same report.
Support grouping for 'create --segments' in the same manner as for
'create --filemap'; group regions by default, applying an optional
alias specified with --alias, unless the user specifies --nogroup.
Add a new option to the create command to create regions that map the
extents of a file:
# dmstats create --filemap /path/to/file
/path/to/file: Created new group with 10 region(s) as group ID 0.
When performing a --filemap no device argument is required (and
supplying one results in error) since the device to bind to is implied
by the file path and is obtained directly from an fstat().
Grouping may be optionally disabled by the --nogroup switch: in this
case the command will report each region individually:
# dmstats create --nogroup --filemap /path/to/file
/path/to/file: Created new region with 1 area as region ID 0.
/path/to/file: Created new region with 1 area as region ID 1.
/path/to/file: Created new region with 1 area as region ID 2.
When grouping regions the group alias is automatically set to the
basename (as returned by dm_basename()) of the provided file.
This can be overridden to a user-defined value at the command line by
use of the --alias option.
If grouping is disabled no alias can be set.
Use of offset and subdivision options (--start, --length, --segments,
--areas, --areasize).
Setting aux_data and histograms for groups is possible but is not
currently implemented.
The code could perform this conversion but ironically
did not recognize the standard command form, only the
the unpreferred "implication-based" command form.
"lvconvert --type linear VG/RaidLV" would fail, but
"lvconvert --mirrors 0 VG/RaidLV" would succeed.

"lvconvert --type linear VG/MirrorLV" would fail, but
"lvconvert --mirrors 0 VG/MirrorLV" would succeed.
Make it clear that the "aux data" presented in reports is the user
data stored in the field (and does not include any library-internal
state such as group descriptors) by renaming the field to user_data
and changing the heading to "UserData".
Replace --statstype=area,region,group with a separate switch for
each object type: --area, --region, --group. Omitting any object
type switch will use the defaults for the current command (regions
and groups for list, and regions, groups and areas for verbose list).
Replace the 'name' field with 'statsname' in order to report alias
names for groups, and include the 'group_id' field between statsname
and the 'region_id' field to make it clear to the user when groups
are in use.
Walk avaiable groups and regions (in addition to areas) and report
aggregate statistics and properties.
A new switch is added to filter the type of obects inclued in the
report:
--statstype={all,area,region,group}
The type of the current row is also available in a new
DR_STATS_META field 'type'.
To allow the names used to describe statistics report objects to
change (for e.g to support groups and region and group aliases)
introduce a new "stats_name" field that evaluates to the correct
name for the object being reported.
Add a pair of commands to create and delete stats groups:
dmstats group --regions REGIONS
dmstats ungroup --groupid ID
REGIONS specifies a list of regions to be included in the group.
Regions are specified as a comma separated list in order of
increasing region ID. Ranges may be specified as a hypen separated
pair of values giving the first and last member of the range.
With a single report (--count=1) no timerfd is set up and the cycle
and current timestamps should be freed during the single call to
_update_interval_times().
Add new logic to identify each unique operation and route
it to the correct function to perform it. The functions
that perform the conversions remain unchanged.
This new code checks every allowed combination of LV type
and requested operation, and for each valid combination
calls the function that performs that conversion.
The first stage of option validation which checks for
incompatible combinations of command line options, is done
done before process_each is called. This is unchanged.
(This new code will allow that first stage validation to
be simplified in a future commit.)
The second stage of checking options against the specific
LV type is done by this new code. For each valid combination
of operation + LV type, the new code calls an existing
function that implements it.
With this in place, the ad hoc checks for valid combinations
of LV types and operations can be removed from the existing
code in a future commit.
(The #if 0 is used to keep the patch clean, and the
disabled code will be removed by a following patch.)
Previously, a command sent lvmetad new VG metadata in vg_commit().
In vg_commit(), devices are suspended, so any memory allocation
done by the command while sending to lvmetad, or by lvmetad while
updating its cache could deadlock if memory reclaim was triggered.
Now lvmetad is updated in unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed.
The new method for updating VG metadata in lvmetad is in two phases:
1. In vg_write(), before devices are suspended, the command sends
lvmetad a short message ("set_vg_info") telling it what the new
VG seqno will be. lvmetad sees that the seqno is newer than
the seqno of its cached VG, so it sets the INVALID flag for the
cached VG. If sending the message to lvmetad fails, the command
fails before the metadata is committed and the change is not made.
If sending the message succeeds, vg_commit() is called.
2. In unlock_vg(), after devices are resumed, the command sends
lvmetad the standard vg_update message with the new metadata.
lvmetad sees that the seqno in the new metadata matches the
seqno it saved from set_vg_info, and knows it has the latest
copy, so it clears the INVALID flag for the cached VG.
If a command fails between 1 and 2 (after committing the VG on disk,
but before sending lvmetad the new metadata), the cached VG retains
the INVALID flag in lvmetad. A subsequent command will read the
cached VG from lvmetad, see the INVALID flag, ignore the cached
copy, read the VG from disk instead, update the lvmetad copy
with the latest copy from disk, (this clears the INVALID flag
in lvmetad), and use the correct VG metadata for the command.
(This INVALID mechanism already existed for use by lvmlockd.)
Simplify code around _do_get_report_selection - remove "expected_idxs[]"
argument which is superfluous and add "allow_single" switch instead to
allow for recognition of "--configreport <report_name> -S" as well as
single "-S" if needed.

Also do not try to return EINVALID_CMD_LINE error when we

locking VG.
In commit 6ae22125, vgcfgrestore began disabling lvmetad
while running, and rescanned to enable it again at the end,
but missed the rescanning/enabling in the error case.
Previously, vgcfgrestore would attempt to vg_remove the
existing VG from lvmetad and then vg_update to add the
restored VG. But, if there was a failure in the command
or with vg_update, the lvmetad cache would be left incorrect.
Now, disable lvmetad before the restore begins, and then
rescan to populate lvmetad from disk after restore has
written the new VG to disk.
Reporting commands can be of different types (even if the command name
is the same):
- pvs command can be either of PVS, PVSEGS or LABEL report type,
- vgs command is of VGS report type,
- lvs command is of LVS or SEGS report type.
Use basic report type when looking for report prefix used for
--configreport option.
This means that:
- 'pvs --configreport pv' applies to PVS, PVSEGS or LABEL report type
- 'vgs --configreport vg' applies to VGS report type
- 'lvs --configreport lv' applies to LVS and SEGS report type
This patch adds structures and functions to reroute error and warning
logs to log report, if it's set.
There are 5 new functions:
- log_set_report
Set log report where logging will be rerouted.
- log_set_report_context
Set context globally so any report_cmdlog call will use it.
- log_set_report_object_type
Set object type globally so any report_cmdlog call will use it.
- log_set_report_object_name_and_id
Set object ID and name globally so any report_cmdlog call will use it.
- log_set_report_object_group_and_group_id
Set object group ID and name globally so any report_cmdlog call will use it.
These functions will be called during LVM command processing so any logs
which are rerouted to log report contain proper information about current
processing state.
The lvm fullreport works per VG and as such, the vg, lv, pv, seg and
pvseg subreport is done for each VG. However, if the PV is not part of
any VG yet, we still want to display pv and pvseg subreports for these
"orphan" PVs - so enable this for lvm fullreport's process_each_vg call.
If we have fullreport, make sure that the options/sort keys used for
each report doesn't change its type - we want to preserve the original
type so it's always 5 different subreports within fullreport (vg, lv, pv,
seg, pvseg). Since we have all report types within fullreport, users
should add fields under proper subreport type - this minimizes
duplication of info displayed on output.
Groupable args (the ones marked with ARG_GROUPABLE flag) start a new
group of args if:
- this is the first time we hit such a groupable arg,
- or if non-countable arg is repeated.
However, there may be cases where we want to give priorities when
forming groups and hence force new group creation if we hit an arg
with higher grouping priority.
For example, let's assume (for now) hypothetical sequence of args used:
lvs -o lv_name --configreport log -o log_type --configreport lv -o +vg_name
Without giving any priorites, we end up with:
lvs -o lv_name --configreport log -o log_type --configreport lv -o +vg_name
| | | | | |
\__________GROUP1___________/ \________GROUP2___________/ \_GROUP3_/
This is because we hit "-o" as the first groupable arg. The --configreport,
even though it's groupable too, it falls into the previous "-o" group.
While we may need to give priority to the --configreport arg that should
always start a new group in this scenario instead:
lvs -o lv_name --configreport log -o log_type --configreport lv -o +vg_name
| | | | | |
\_GROUP1_/ \_________GROUP2___________/ \_________GROUP3__________/
So here "-o" started a new group but since "--configreport" has higher
priority than "-o", it starts fresh new group now and hence the rest of
the command line's args are grouped by --configreport now.
lvm fullreport executes 5 subreports (vg, pv, lv, pvseg, seg) per each VG
(and so taking one VG lock each time) within one command which makes it
easier to produce full report about LVM entities.
Since all 5 subreports for a VG are done under a VG lock, the output is
more consistent mainly in cases where LVM entities may be changed in
parallel.
Add any report (pvs/vgs/lvs) currently processed to current report group
which is part of processing handle and which already contains log
report. This way both log report and pvs/vgs/lvs report will be
reported as a whole within a group, thus having same output format as
selected by --reportformat option.
If there's parent processing handle, we don't need to create completely
new report group and status report - we'll just reuse the one already
initialized for the parent.
Currently, the situation where this matter is when doing internal report
to do the selection for processing commands where we have parent processing
handle for the command itself and processing handle for the selection
part (that is selection for non-reporting tools).
Wire up report group creation with log report in struct
processing_handle and call report_format_init during processing handle
initialization (init_processing_handle fn) and destroy it while
destroing processing handle (destroy_processing_handle fn).
This way, all the LVM command processing using processing handle
has access to log report via which the current command log
can be reported as items are processed.
Separating common report and per-report arguments prepares the code for
handling several reports per one command (for example, the command log
report and LVM command report itself).
Each report can have sort keys, options (fields), list of fields to
compact and selection criteria set individually. Hooks for setting these
per report within one command will be a part of subsequent patches, this
patch only separates new struct single_report_args out of existing
struct report_args.
New report/output_format configuration sets the output format used
for all LVM commands globally. Currently, there are 2 formats
recognized:
- basic (the classical basic output with columns and rows, used by default)
- json (output is in json format)
Add new --reportformat option and new report_format_init function that
checks this option and creates new report group accordingly, also
preparing log report handle and adding it to the report group just
created.
This is a preparation for new CMDLOG report type which is going to be
used for reporting LVM command log.
The new report type introduces several new fields (log_seq_num, log_type,
log_context, log_object_type, log_object_group, log_object_id, object_name,
log_message, log_errno, log_ret_code) as well as new configuration settings
to set this report type (report/command_log_sort and report/command_log_cols
lvm.conf settings).
This patch also introduces internal report_cmdlog helper function
which is a wrapper over dm_report_object to report command log via
CMDLOG report type and which is going to be used throughout the code
to report the log items.
commit 15da467b was meant to address the case where
use_lvmetad=1 in lvm.conf, and lvmetad is not available,
in which case, pvscan --cache -aay should activate LVs.
But the commit unintentionally also changed the case
where use_lvmetad=0 in lvm.conf, in which case
pvscan --cache -aay should not activate LVs, so fix
that here.
When pvscan --cache -aay fails to connect to lvmetad it will
simply exit and do nothing. Change this so that it will
skip the lvmetad cache step and do the activation step from
disk.
A number of places are working on a specific dev when they
call lvmcache_info_from_pvid() to look up an info struct
based on a pvid. In those cases, pass the dev being used
to lvmcache_info_from_pvid(). When a dev is specified,
lvmcache_info_from_pvid() will verify that the cached
info it's using matches the dev being processed before
returning the info. Calling code will not mistakenly
get info for the wrong dev when duplicate devs exist.
This confusion was happening when scanning labels when
duplicate devs existed. label_read for the first dev
would add an info struct to lvmcache for that dev/pvid.
label_read for the second dev would see the pvid in
lvmcache from first dev, and mistakenly conclude that
the label_read from the second dev can be skipped
because it's already been done. By verifying that the
dev for the cached pvid matches the dev being read,
this mismatch is avoided and the label is actually read
from the second duplicate.
pvmove began processing tags unintentionally from commit,
6d7dc87cb pvmove: use toollib
pvmove works on a single PV, but tags can match multiple PVs.
If we allowed tags, but processed only the first matching PV,
then the resulting PV would be unpredictable.
Also, the current processing code does not allow us to simply
report an error and do nothing if more than one PV matches the tag,
because the command starts processing PVs as they are found,
so it's too late to do nothing if a second PV matches.
If configuration consists of several sources in config cascade
("config cascade" defined in man lvmconfig(8)), lvmconfig displayed
only difference from defaults of the topmost config in the cascade.
Fix lvmconfig to display complete difference, considering all
the configuration in the cascade.
For example, before this patch:
(use_lvmetad=0 set in lvm.conf which differs from defaults)
$ lvmconfig --type diff
global {
use_lvmetad=0

difference from defaults in configuration):

report {
compact_output=1

global {
use_lvmetad=0

In the same way that process_each_vg() can be passed
a single VG name to process, also allow process_each_lv()
to be passed a single VG name and LV name to process.
This refactors the code for autoactivation. Previously,
as each PV was found, it would be sent to lvmetad, and
the VG would be autoactivated using a non-standard VG
processing function (the "activation_handler") called via
a function pointer from within the lvmetad notification path.
Now, any scanning that the command needs to do (scanning
only the named device args, or scanning all devices when
there are no args), is done first, before any activation
is attempted. During the scans, the VG names are saved.
After scanning is complete, process_each_vg is used to do
autoactivation of the saved VG names. This makes pvscan
activation much more similar to activation done with
vgchange or lvchange.
The separate autoactivate phase also means that if lvmetad
is disabled (either before or during the scan), the command
can continue with the activation step by simply not using
lvmetad and reverting to disk scanning to do the
activation.
Add support for active cache LV.
Handle --cachemode args validation during command line processing.
Rework some lvm2 internal to use lvm2 defined CACHE_MODE enums
indepently on libdm defines and use enum around the code instead
of passing and comparing strings.
The _report fn is getting big - separate it in two:
- _report fn to get all the options and arguments
- _do_report fn for reporting itself
Also, place all the variables/arguments in one structure for easier
handling of the variables around.
Previously, duplicate PVs were processed as a side effect
of processing the "chosen" PV in lvmcache. The duplicate
PV would be hacked into lvmcache temporarily in place of
the chosen PV.
In the old way, we had to always process the "chosen" PV
device, even if a duplicate of it was named on the command
line. This meant we were processing a different device than
was asked for. This could be worked around by naming
multiple duplicate devs on the command line in which case
they were swapped in and out of lvmcache for processing.
Now, the duplicate devs are processed directly in their
own processing loop. This means we can remove the old
hacks related to processing dups as a side effect of
processing the chosen device. We can now simply process
the device that was named on the command line.
When the same PVID exists on two or more devices, one device
is preferred and used in the VG, and the others are duplicates
and are not used in the VG. The preferred device exists in
lvmcache as usual. The duplicates exist in a specical list
of unused duplicate devices.
The duplicate devs have the "d" attribute and the "duplicate"
reporting field displays "duplicate" for them.
'pvs' warns about duplicates, but the formal output only
includes the single preferred PV.
'pvs -a' has the same warnings, and the duplicate devs are
included in the output.
'pvs <path>' has the same warnings, and displays the named
device, whether it is preferred or a duplicate.
Wait to compare and choose alternate duplicate devices until
after all devices are scanned. During scanning, the first
duplicate dev is kept in lvmcache, and others are kept in a
new list (_found_duplicate_devs).
After all devices are scanned, compare all the duplicates
available for a given PVID and decide which is best.
If the dev used in lvmcache is changed, drop the old dev
from lvmcache entirely and rescan the replacement dev.
Previously the VG metadata from the old dev was kept in
lvmcache and only the dev was replaced.
A new config setting devices/allow_changes_with_duplicate_pvs
can be set to 0 which disallows modifying a VG or activating
LVs in it when the VG contains PVs with duplicate devices.
Set to 1 is the old behavior which allowed the VG to be
changed.
The logic for which of two devs is preferred has changed.
The primary goal is to choose a device that is currently
in use if the other isn't, e.g. by an active LV.
. prefer dev with fs mounted if the other doesn't, else
. prefer dev that is dm if the other isn't, else
. prefer dev in subsystem if the other isn't
If neither device is preferred by these rules, then don't
change devices in lvmcache, leaving the one that was found
first.
The previous logic for preferring a device was:
. prefer dev in subsystem if the other isn't, else
. prefer dev without holders if the other has holders, else
. prefer dev that is dm if the other isn't
Rather than doing repeated translations from name to
device when comparing args to existing PVs, do one
translation of the arg names and saving the device,
before checking existing PVs.
pvscan autoactivation has its own VG processing implementation,
so it can't properly handle things like foreign or shared VGs,
so make it ignore those VG types (or errors from them) as best
as possible.
Add a FIXME stating that pvscan autoactivation must really be
moved to the standard VG processing by calling process_each_vg
to do activation once the scanning / cache update is finished.
