[lvm-devel] [PATCH] Introduce MDA_IGNORABLE metadata status flag to differentiate ignorable mdas from other mdas

Wed Oct 6 11:32:43 UTC 2010
We don't necessarily have disk-only mdas present and when counting number of
mdas used while making decisions in metadata balance code, we have to count
only the mdas that are ignorable. Otherwise we could end up in an inconsistent
state. For example when using pvchange:
- setting metadata/dirs in lvm.conf
- pvcreate /dev/abc
- vgcreate vg /dev/abc
- pvchange --metadataignore y /dev/adc
...pvchange shoud not allow disabling the mda since the one that is on /dev/abc
is the only one used on that PV (though we have live copy of that mda in
filesystem's directory).
So we need to make a difference between mdas that are IGNORABLE and the ones
that are not. After a short discussion with Dave, we decided to store this flag
in the metadata_area's status field (previously the "flags" field).
Dave, please double-check me whether this is OK, just for sure...
...
<personal note>
Anyway, this is just one example of the situation where we need to make a
difference for mda based on its type (raw, fs dir, ...). There may be other
situations like this one throughout the mda handling code, like in
_text_pv_setup where we use something like:
if (mda2->ops != &_metadata_text_raw_ops) ....
First I thought we could possibly store this "mda type" information in the
mda's status field, but then I realized that it would be a violation of the
abstraction that we impose by using the metadata_area structure which is
kind of polymorphic then. So I think we need some better to solve these
problems... There may be other situations in the code where the knowledge
of the metadata type used is needed. Either the code needs a little inspection
whether we can avoid that or the metadata abstractions/interface used needs
a little improvement... (For example, very similar situation is the use of
mda_metadata_locn_offset function that is part of the abstract mda handling
interface - e.g. the "dirs" metadata type does not have any "offset". It's
metadata type specific functionality that belongs to "raw" metadata type
only.)
</personoal note>
