------- Comment From christian.r...@de.ibm.com 2019-02-22 05:23 EDT------- Further investigations revealed that no dm-crypt mapper device is needed at all to reproduce the behaviour but just two block devices with different physical block sizes, e.g.
# blockdev --getpbsz /dev/mapper/mpatha-part1 512 # blockdev --getpbsz /dev/dasdc1 4096 Mind to first add the SCSI device/the device with the smaller phys. block size to the volume group when running the 'vgcreate' command. # blockdev --getpbsz /dev/mapper/TEST_VG-LV1 512 Use one SCSI disk partition (multipath devices are recommended but not required) and one DASD partition to recreate the pvmove problem. Run pvs after the move completed, and unmount, mount the fs again. The fsck.ext4 does not detect any problems on the fs which is unexpected.

We see a real usability issue with data destruction as consequence - which is not acceptable. We expect 'pvmove' to fail with error in such situations to prevent fs destruction, which might possibly be overridden by a force flag. Details ======= After a 'pvmove' operation is run to move a physical volume onto an ecrypted device with 4096 bytes logical block size we experience a file system corruption. There is no need for the file system to be mounted, but the problem surfaces differently if so. Either, the 'pvs' command after the pvmove shows /dev/LOOP_VG/LV: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 0: Invalid argument /dev/LOOP_VG/LV: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 314507264: Invalid argument /dev/LOOP_VG/LV: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 314564608: Invalid argument /dev/LOOP_VG/LV: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 4096: Invalid argument or a subsequent mount shows (after umount if the fs had previously been mounted as in our setup) mount: /mnt: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/LOOP_VG-LV, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. A minimal setup of LVM using one volume group with one logical volume defined, based on one physical volume is sufficient to raise the problem. One more physical volume of the same size is needed to run the pvmove operation to. LV | VG: LOOP_VG [ ] | PV: /dev/loop0 --> /dev/mapper/enc-loop ( backed by /dev/mapper/enc-loop ) The physical volumes are backed by loopback devices (losetup) to base the problem report on, but we have seen the error on real SCSI multipath volumes also, with and without cryptsetup mapper devices in use. Further discussion ================== https://www.saout.de/pipermail/dm-crypt/2019-February/006078.html The problem does not occur on block devices with native size of 4k. E.g. DASDs, or file systems with mkfs -b 4096 option. Terminal output =============== See attached file pvmove-error.txt Debug data ========== pvmove was run with -dddddd (maximum debug level) See attached journal file.

Create two image files of 500MB in size and set up two loopback devices with 'losetup -fP FILE' 2.) Create one physical volume and one volume group 'LOOP_VG', and one logical volume 'VG' Run: pvcreate /dev/loop0 vgcreate LOOP_VG /dev/loop0 lvcreate -L 300MB LOOP_VG -n LV /dev/loop0 3.) Create a file system on the logical volume device: mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/LOOP_VG-LV 4.) mount the file system created in the previous step to some empty available directory: mount /dev/mapper/LOOP_VG-LV /mnt 5.) Set up a second physical volume, this time encrypted with LUKS2, and open the volume to make it available: cryptsetup luksFormat --type luks2 --sector-size 4096 /dev/loop1 cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/loop1 enc-loop 6.) Create the second physical volume, and add it to the LOOP_VG pvcreate /dev/mapper/enc-loop vgextend LOOP_VG /dev/mapper/enc-loop 7.) Ensure the new physical volume is part of the volume group: pvs 8.) Move the /dev/loop0 volume onto the encrypted volume with maximum debug option: pvmove -dddddd /dev/loop0 /dev/mapper/enc-loop 9.) The previous step succeeds, but corrupts the file system on the logical volume We expect an error here. There might be a command line flag to override used because corruption does not cause a data loss.
