Hi,
1. The metadata locations (raw_locn::offset) are not properly aligned.
Function _aligned_io() requires the IO to be logical-block aligned,
but metadata locations returned by next_rlocn_offset() are 512-byte
aligned.
If a device's logical block size is greater than 512b, then LVM need to use
bounce buffer to do the IO.
How about setting raw_locn::offset to logical-block boundary?
(or max(logical_block_size, physical_block_size) for 512-byte logical-/4KB
physical-block drives?)
This looks like a bug - lvm2 should start to write metadata always on physical
block aligned position.
Hi
I've opened RFE BZ for this one - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1329234
It's not completely trivial to fix this in a backward compatible way - but I'm
mostly 100% sure it's not cause your 10s delay unless.
