Subject: lvm2: liblvm2app : warning log for unset cmd
Date: Tue, 04 Jul 2017 13:02:39 +0200
Package: lvm2
Version: 2.02.168-2
Severity: normal
lvmetad spew out warning logs when called by the the liblvm2app library :
Jul 4 12:42:05 myhost lvmetad[339]: WARNING: Ignoring unsupported value for
cmd.
Jul 4 12:42:05 myhost lvmetad[339]: WARNING: Ignoring unsupported value for
cmd.
Jul 4 12:44:05 myhost lvmetad[339]: WARNING: Ignoring unsupported value for
cmd.
Jul 4 12:44:05 myhost lvmetad[339]: WARNING: Ignoring unsupported value for
cmd.
I found this out with the collectd / lvm plugin. Can ben reproduce easily with
python-lvm2:
sudo python -c "import lvm; lvm.listVgNames()"
Look's like liblvm2app sending over lvmetad socket empty cmd parameter is the
issue. Compare this ok strace from vgs command :
read(5, "request=\"vg_list\"\ntoken =\"filter", 32) = 32
read(5, ":3239235440\"\nupdate_timeout =10\npid =32720\ncmd =\"vgs\"\n\n##\n",
1024) = 58
write(5, "response=\"OK\"\nvolume_groups {\n\teGyPif-m1dX-2jId-5eEM-DCrQ-
gDLP-Z4zmp6 {\n\t\tname=\"world\"\n\t}\n}\n\n\n", 94) = 94
write(5, "\n##\n", 4) = 4
To this faulty one (our python 1 liner command) :
read(5, "request=\"vg_list\"\ntoken =\"filter", 32) = 32
read(5, ":3239235440\"\nupdate_timeout =10\npid =374\ncmd =\"\"\n\n##\n", 1024)
= 53
write(2, "WARNING: Ignoring unsupported value for cmd.", 44) = 44
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1
write(5, "response=\"OK\"\nvolume_groups {\n\teGyPif-m1dX-2jId-5eEM-DCrQ-
gDLP-Z4zmp6 {\n\t\tname=\"world\"\n\t}\n}\n\n\n", 94) = 94
write(5, "\n##\n", 4) = 4
