[cc'ing lvm-devel too] Thanks for the pointer; that was part of the fix. But it wasn't sufficient because lib/activate/dev_manager.c:_percent_run() was not properly returning TARGET_STATUS_ERROR. I've updated the 2 relevant patches with the following inter-diffs; these changes fix things for me. I've uploaded the updated patches as usual, see: http://people.redhat.com/msnitzer/patches/snapshot-merge/lvm2/LVM2-2.02.52-cvs/ updated lvm-report-state-in-return-value-of-target_percent.patch contains: diff --git a/lib/activate/activate.c b/lib/activate/activate.c index aa75e5b..a55bf2f 100644 --- a/lib/activate/activate.c +++ b/lib/activate/activate.c @@ -493,7 +493,8 @@ int lv_info_by_lvid(struct cmd_context *cmd, const char *lvid_s, } /* - * Returns 1 if percent set, else 0 on failure. + * Returns TARGET_STATUS_PROCESSING or TARGET_STATUS_FINISHED if percent set; + * else TARGET_STATUS_ERROR or TARGET_STATUS_INVALIDATED on failure. */ int lv_snapshot_percent(const struct logical_volume *lv, float *percent) { diff --git a/lib/activate/dev_manager.c b/lib/activate/dev_manager.c index 6495b8c..d701c71 100644 --- a/lib/activate/dev_manager.c +++ b/lib/activate/dev_manager.c @@ -333,7 +333,7 @@ static int _percent_run(struct dev_manager *dm, const char *name, struct logical_volume *lv, float *percent, uint32_t *event_nr) { - int r = TARGET_STATUS_FINISHED; + int r = TARGET_STATUS_ERROR; struct dm_task *dmt; struct dm_info info; void *next = NULL; @@ -364,6 +364,7 @@ static int _percent_run(struct dev_manager *dm, const char *name, if (event_nr) *event_nr = info.event_nr; + r = TARGET_STATUS_FINISHED; do { next = dm_get_next_target(dmt, next, &start, &length, &type, ¶ms); @@ -396,6 +397,7 @@ static int _percent_run(struct dev_manager *dm, const char *name, } while (next); if (lv && (segh = dm_list_next(&lv->segments, segh))) { + r = TARGET_STATUS_ERROR; log_error("Number of segments in active LV %s does not " "match metadata", lv->name); goto out; updated lvm-merge-background-poll.patch contains: diff --git a/tools/lvconvert.c b/tools/lvconvert.c index d5afca4..3b46e11 100644 --- a/tools/lvconvert.c +++ b/tools/lvconvert.c @@ -360,15 +360,18 @@ static int _poll_merge_progress(struct cmd_context *cmd, { int r; float percent; - if (!(r = lv_snapshot_percent(lv, &percent))) { - log_error("Failed to query for merging percentage of lv %s.", lv->name); + + r = lv_snapshot_percent(lv, &percent); + if (r == TARGET_STATUS_ERROR) { + log_error("Failed query for merging percentage of lv %s.", lv->name); /* returning zero terminates the polling process */ return 0; } - if (r == TARGET_STATUS_INVALIDATED) { + else if (r == TARGET_STATUS_INVALIDATED) { log_print("%s: Snapshot invalidated, aborting merging", lv->name); return PROGRESS_FINISHED; } + if (parms->progress_display) log_print("%s: %s: %.1f%%", lv->name, parms->progress_title, percent); else -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
