There is always at least one back-up copy, to be able to do commit - first
write new metadata - and when they are fully written mark them as valid. So in
case of any write problem there is always previous last valid version
available - see pvcreate --metadatasize --metadatasize  and some other options
in manpage)

Major part of parser is located in lib/config/config.c.

As for your previous question about some detailed  LVM architecture document -
well mostly only the source code itself...

It would probably be better to specify what are you trying to achieve to get
help with that ?
