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.)
This reverts commit fa69ed0bc8.
This code sometimes expects to be presented with a read-only filesystem
(during some boot sequences for example) and copes appropriately with
this and it should not lead to expected error messages that might cause
unnecessary alarm.
lv_name arg is only used without known LV for resolving '*lv'.
Once we know *lv, never use lv_name ever again.
So setting it when passing *lv has not needed.
Use common API design and pass just LV pointer to lv_manip.c functions.
Read cmd struct via lv->vg->cmd when needed.
Also do not try to return EINVALID_CMD_LINE error when we
have already openned VG - this error code can only be returned before
locking VG.
If 'vgcreate --shared' finds both sanlock and dlm are running,
print a more accurate error message:
"Found multiple lock managers, select one with --lock-type."
When neither is running, we still print:
"Failed to detect a running lock manager to select lock type."
vgchange --lock-type iterates through LVs to ensure
no LVs are active before changing the lock type of
the VG, but the loop was not checking that an LV
actually has a lock before trying it, so it would
fail if the VG had any LVs that don't use locks,
e.g it would fail on a tmeta LV from a pool.
This applies the same rule/logic to dlm VGs that has always
existed for sanlock VGs. Allowing a dlm VG to be removed
while its lockspace was still running on other hosts largely
worked, but there were difficult problems if another VG with
the same name was recreated. Forcing the VG lockspace to
be stopped, gives both sanlock and dlm VGs the same behavior.
Add a new arg to lockd_start_vg() that indicates
it is being called for a new lockd VG, so that
lvmlockd knows the lockspace being started is new.
(Will be used by a following commit.)
This was only used to return two flags indicating specific
reasons for a lock failure so that a more specific error
message could be printed by the command (lockspace had been
stopped, or lockspace had an error starting.)
Remove the list, given its limited usefulness, the fact it
would easily become inaccurate, and the fact it was causing
misleading error messages. The error conditions it was meant
to help could be reported differently.
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.
This makes lvmlockd removal steps for dlm VGs closely match
sanlock VGs. Because dlm lockspaces are not required to be
stopped on all hosts before vgremove, there is an extra bit
for dlm lockspaces, where a flag is set in the VG lock lvb
indicating that the VG was removed. If other hosts happen
to use the VG lock they will see this flag and stop their
lockspace.
Remove the existing lock type using the same functions
used to remove the lockd components during vgremove.
This results in a "clean" VG and lvmlockd state after
the vgchange, i.e. no bits left over from previous
lock type.
When vgremove is used to remove multiple VGs in one command,
e.g. vgremove foo bar, the first VG (foo) that is removed
may have held the sanlock global lock. In this case,
do not continue removing further VGs (bar) without the
global lock.
This adds the infrastructure, code paths, error reporting,
etc. to handle storage errors, or storage loss, under the
sanlock leases in a VG that is being used. The loss of
storage means sanlock cannot renew its leases, which means
that the host needs to stop using the shared VG before its
leases expire.
This still requires manually shutting down a VG that has
lost lease storage, e.g. unmounting file systems,
deactivating LVs in the VG. The next step is to
automatically use a command like blkdeactivate to do that.
When a command is flagged with NO_METADATA_PROCESSING flag, it means
such command does not process any metadata and hence it doens't require
lvmetad, lvmpolld and it can get away with no locking too. These are
mostly simple commands (like lvmconfig/dumpconfig, version, types,
segtypes and other builtin commands that do not process metadata
in any way).
At first, when lvm command is executed, create toolcontext without
initializing connections (lvmetad,lvmpolld) and without initializing
filters (which depend on connections init). Instead, delay this
initialization until we know we need this. That is, until the
lvm_run_command fn is called in which we know what the actual
command to run is and hence we can avoid any connection, filter
or locking initiliazation for commands that would not make use
of it anyway.
For all the other create_toolcontext calls, we keep the original
behaviour - the filters and connections are initialized together
with the toolcontext.
This tries harder to avoid creating duplicate global locks in
sanlock VGs by refusing to create a new sanlock VG with a
global lock if other sanlock VGs exist that may have a gl.
There is no longer an "enable" option for the global lock,
so remove the bit of code that was checking for it. It
was an optional variation anyway, and not one that was likely
to be used.
Also update the corresponding comment describing global lock
creation.
When lvmlockd is compiled without support for one of the
lock managers (sanlock or dlm), and a command tries to use
one of them, explain that in the error message.
When lvm is built without lvmlockd support, vgcreate using a
shared lock type would succeed and create a local VG (the
--shared option was effectively ignored). Make it fail.
Fix the same issue when using vgchange to change a VG to a
shared lock type.
Make the error messages consistent.
When --nolocking is used (by vgs, lvs, pvs):
. don't use lvmlockd at all (set use_lvmlockd to 0)
. allow lockd VGs to be read
When --readonly is used (by vgs, lvs, pvs, vgdisplay, lvdisplay,
pvdisplay, lvmdiskscan, lvscan, pvscan, vgcfgbackup):
. skip actual lvmlockd locking calls
. allow lockd VGs to be read
. check that only shared gl/vg locks are being requested
(even though the actually locking is being skipped)
. check that no LV locks are requested, because no LVs
should be activated or used in readonly mode
. disable using lvmetad so VGs are read from disk
It is important to note the limited commands that accept
the --nolocking and --readonly options, i.e. no commands
that change/write a VG or change/activate LVs accept these
options, only commands that read VGs.
There are at least a couple instances where
the lock_args check does not work correctly,
(listed in the comment), so disable the
NULL check for lock_args until those are
resolved.
including the allow_override_lock_modes setting.
It was not possible to override default lock modes any longer,
since the command line options had already been removed.
A mechanism will probably be required later that puts part of
this back.
