I don't know /why/ it is failing... and I don't even know exactly where the problem gets started, but here is what I've found so far... >From the core dump: Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault. #0 persistent_filter_wipe (f=0x0) at filters/filter-persistent.c:54 54 struct pfilter *pf = (struct pfilter *) f->private; (gdb) bt #0 persistent_filter_wipe (f=0x0) at filters/filter-persistent.c:54 #1 0x000000000041d83a in dev_iter_create (f=0x0, dev_scan=1) at device/dev-cache.c:740 #2 0x0000000000416b85 in lvmcache_label_scan (cmd=0x112aacd0, full_scan=2) at cache/lvmcache.c:463 #3 0x0000000000410ad0 in do_refresh_cache () at lvm-functions.c:606 #4 0x000000000040d3ea in do_command (client=0x11441fd0, msg=<value optimized out>, msglen=30, buf=0x4296a0c0, buflen=1481, retlen=0x4296a0cc) at clvmd-command.c:127 #5 0x000000000040e973 in lvm_thread_fn (arg=<value optimized out>) at clvmd.c:1554 #6 0x0000003992a064a7 in start_thread () from /lib64/libpthread.so.0 #7 0x00000039922d3c2d in clone () from /lib64/libc.so.6 'f' is being dereferenced in persistent_filter_wipe - initially provided by lvmcache_label_scan, here: 463 if (!(iter = dev_iter_create(cmd->filter, (full_scan == 2) ? 1 : 0))) { 464 log_error("dev_iter creation failed"); 465 goto out; 466 } 'cmd->filter' isn't set because 'refresh_toolcontext' failed in do_refresh_cache: 604 ret = refresh_toolcontext(cmd); 605 init_full_scan_done(0); 606 lvmcache_label_scan(cmd, 2); (gdb) p ret $2 = 0 'refresh_toolcontext' failed at _init_lvm_conf->_load_config_file->read_config_file->read_config_fd' client=0x114f6090, msg=(nil), len=0, csid=(nil), xid=10574 /etc/lvm/lvm.conf: mmap failed: Bad file descriptor /etc/lvm/lvm.conf: munmap failed: Invalid argument /etc/lvm/lvm.conf: close failed: Bad file descriptor Failed to load config file /etc/lvm/lvm.conf Is the file descriptor being lost, corrupted, etc?
