Description of problem:
Red Hat Issue Tracker number:   IT# 35830
Bug Reported by:                Glen Johnson (IBM LTC)
IBM Technical Account Manager:  Mike Gahagan
HardWare Environment:           ppc64

The "pvmove" command uses the PE_LOCKED_COPY (0x4004fe51) ioctl to
finish the move from one physical extent to another. Unfortunately,
this ioctl has not been handled at all on ppc64 kernel and always
return -EINVAL. 

If we add (hack) COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(PE_LOCKED_COPY) as:

--- arch/ppc64/kernel.orig/ioctl32.c	2004-03-05 10:32:56.000000000 +0530

then then "pvmove" completes without error.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL3 (kernel-2.4.21-x.EL)

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
On a ppc64 machine:

1. Create two physical volume, and then create a volume group on them.
   e.g. shell> parted #create 2 spare disk partitions - each 800MB. 
        shell> vgscan #if first run of LVM
        shell> pvcreate /dev/sda5 /dev/sda6
        shell> vgcreate vg001 /dev/sda5 /dev/sda6
2. Create a logical volume, then create and mount a file system on it.
   e.g. shell> lvcreate -L 200M -n lv001 vg001
        shell> mkfs.ext3 /dev/vg001/lv001
        shell> mkdir /lvmtst
        shell> mount /dev/vg001/lv001 /lvmtst
3. Move the physical extent from one physical volume to another
   e.g. shell> pvdisplay -v /dev/sda5
        shell> pvdisplay -v /dev/sda6
        shell> pvmove -v /dev/sdc5

pvmove -- ERROR reading input physical volume "/dev/sdc5" (still
4194304 bytes
to read)
pvmove -- ERROR "pv_move_pe(): read input PV" moving physical extents
    

Actual Results:  The "pvmove" command fails with the following error
messages:

pvmove -- ERROR reading input physical volume "/dev/sdc5" (still
4194304 bytes to read)
pvmove -- ERROR "pv_move_pe(): read input PV" moving physical extents



Expected Results:  The command (pvmove) finished successfully

Additional info:

1. The x86 doesn't have this problem. 
2. Experiments were done on p655.test.redhat.com (192.168.33.46).
