* system_id: new appmachineid optionDavid Teigland2021-10-071-0/+17
| | | | | | | The new system_id_source="appmachineid" will cause lvm to use an lvm-specific derivation of the machine-id, instead of the machine-id directly. This is now recommended in place of using machineid.
* libdm: dmsetup measure support for IMAAlasdair G Kergon2021-09-231-0/+15
| | | | | | | Add support for DM_IMA_MEASUREMENT_FLAG with DM_TABLE_STATUS_CMD. This feature requires DM version 4.45 (5.15+ kernels)

|
* vgsplit: add support for option --poolmetadataspareZdenek Kabelac2021-07-211-0/+9
| | | | | | | When splitting VG with thin/cache pool volume, handle pmspare during such split and allocate new pmspare in new VG or extend existing pmspare there and eventually drop pmspare in original VG if is no longer needed there.
* man: vdoimport pageZdenek Kabelac2021-07-091-0/+92
|
* vdo: add vdoimport supportZdenek Kabelac2021-07-091-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add tool 'vdoimport' to support easy conversion of an existing VDO manager managed VDO volumes into lvm2 managed VDO LV. When physical converted volume is already a logical volume, conversion happens with the VG itself, just with validation for extent_size, so the virtually sized logical VDO volume size can be expressed in extents. Example of basic simple usage: vdoimport --name vg/vdolv /dev/mapper/vdophysicalvolume

* lvmdevices: add deviceidtype optionDavid Teigland2021-06-111-14/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | When adding a device to the devices file with --adddev, lvm by default chooses the best device ID type for the new device. The new --deviceidtype option allows the user to override the built in preference. This is useful if there's a problem with the default type, or if a secondary type is preferrable. If the specified deviceidtype does not produce a device ID, then lvm falls back to the preference it would otherwise use.

| | | | | | | Missed -l option in man page, although users should prefer lvresize -r when the also want to do a volume management, as there they can specify i.e. extents for allocation. Also mention dm-crypt support in command description.

| | | | | | | | Correcting some usage of Bold and Italics (files). Adding some missing SEE ALSO. Fixing missed replaceable paths that are configurable. Be careful about .P in .TP sections - need to use .sp for space line. Use .UR/.UE for URL references.
* man: with internal build install cache, thin, vdoZdenek Kabelac2021-04-191-2/+20
| | | | | Do not install .7 man pages when building --without internal segtype support for types: cache, thin, vdo.
* man: use editline referenceZdenek Kabelac2021-04-192-6/+16
| | | | | When compiled with editline, refer this in man page as well instead of readline.
* makefiles: generate only needed textZdenek Kabelac2021-04-191-6/+8
| | | | | Avoid storing see_also & _end parts in generated doc, since these we can easily 'cat' while making man pages.
* makefiles: improved hyphenation replacementZdenek Kabelac2021-04-191-32/+48
| | | | | | | | Sed replacements script missed to properly replace several '-' to '\-'. Replace it with simpler set of regexes. Also add new target 'make checksed' for testing with examples, where the replacement should or should not occure for easier testing.
* man: typographyZdenek Kabelac2021-04-1422-2063/+1972
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With to use .TP where it's easy and doesn't change layout (since .HP is marked as deprecated) - but .TP is not always perfetc match. Avoid submitting empty lines to troff and replace them mostly with .P and use '.' at line start to preserve 'visual' presence of empty line while editing man page manually when there is no extra space needed. Fix some markup. Add some missing SEE ALSO section. Drop some white-space at end-of-lines. Improve hyphenation logic so we do not split options. Use '.IP numbers' only with first one the row (others in row automatically derive this value) Use automatic enumeration for .SH titles.
