thin_rmap works without --region, but outputs nothing
Last modified: 2018-04-10 09:18:07 EDT
Description of problem: It is possible to run thin_rmap without using --region option, but it outputs nothing and the return value is 0. Manpage suggest user must specify region: "thin_rmap outputs the reverse mapping stored in the metadata on a device or file between a region of thin provisioned pool blocks and the associated thin provisioned devices." Specifing region correctly prints out the data: thin_rmap /dev/mapper/vgtest-swapvol --region 0..-1 data 0..3 -> thin(1) 0..3 data 3..19 -> thin(1) 8..24 data 19..20 -> thin(1) 128..129 data 20..21 -> thin(1) 191..192 data 21..24 -> thin(2) 0..3 data 24..40 -> thin(2) 8..24 data 40..41 -> thin(2) 128..129 data 41..42 -> thin(2) 191..192 data 42..45 -> thin(3) 0..3 data 45..61 -> thin(3) 8..24 data 61..62 -> thin(3) 128..129 data 62..63 -> thin(3) 191..192 data 63..66 -> thin(4) 0..3 data 66..82 -> thin(4) 8..24 data 82..83 -> thin(4) 128..129 data 83..84 -> thin(4) 191..192 data 84..87 -> thin(5) 0..3 data 87..103 -> thin(5) 8..24 data 103..104 -> thin(5) 128..129 data 104..105 -> thin(5) 191..192 data 105..108 -> thin(6) 0..3 data 108..124 -> thin(6) 8..24 data 124..125 -> thin(6) 128..129 data 125..126 -> thin(6) 191..192 data 126..129 -> thin(7) 0..3 data 129..145 -> thin(7) 8..24 data 145..146 -> thin(7) 128..129 data 146..147 -> thin(7) 191..192 data 147..150 -> thin(8) 0..3 data 150..166 -> thin(8) 8..24 data 166..167 -> thin(8) 128..129 data 167..168 -> thin(8) 191..192 data 168..171 -> thin(9) 0..3 data 171..187 -> thin(9) 8..24 data 187..188 -> thin(9) 128..129 data 188..189 -> thin(9) 191..192 data 189..192 -> thin(10) 0..3 data 192..208 -> thin(10) 8..24 data 208..209 -> thin(10) 128..129 data 209..210 -> thin(10) 191..192 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.7.0-0.1.rc6.el7 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.thin_rmap /dev/mapper/vgtest-swapvol 2.echo $?
