It was written to identify the file affected by a bad block (so it goes
the opposite direction), but the getpvmap() function obtains pe_start and
pe_size plus the list of segments. findlv() goes through the segments to
find the one an absolute sector is in. That should tell you what you want
to know.

I know that it is possible to find where a given logical volume's extents
start on a PVs thanks to the information printed by lvdisplay --maps.
I was also able to experimentally establish that the actual data of an LV
starts one megabyte after that location. Is that offset documented anywhere,
or can I somehow discover it at runtime for a given LV?
