[libvirt] [PATCH] Ignore thin pool LVM devices

For BZ 924672 the problem stems from the fact that thin pool logical volume devices show up in /sbin/lvs output just like normal logical volumes do. Since the thin pool devices show up libvirt assumes they are just normal logical volumes and assumes there will be a corresponding /dev/vgname/lvname device that has been created. This is not the case and you will receive the following error when starting the storage pool: error: cannot stat file '/dev/vgvirt/thinpool': No such file or directory This patch modifies virStorageBackendLogicalMakeVol() to ignore thin pool backing devices. --- src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c b/src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c index a1a37a1..74d26bd 100644 --- a/src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c +++ b/src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c @@ -85,6 +85,10 @@ virStorageBackendLogicalMakeVol(virStoragePoolObjPtr pool, if (attrs[4] != 'a') return 0; + /* BZ 924672 - Skip thin pools(t) and thin pool data(T) */ + if (attrs[0] == 't' || attrs[0] == 'T') + return 0; + /* See if we're only looking for a specific volume */ if (data != NULL) { vol = data; -- 1.8.3.1
