RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Zdenek Kabelac 2020-11-19 15:20:04 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1778977 +++

Description of problem:
This is the issue requested to be tested in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1722860#c9

And shown not to work in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1722860#c11


lvm2-2.02.186-2.el7.x86_64

# cat /sys/block/sd{a..b}/queue/read_ahead_kb
256
128

not using any 'preset' RA value for lv (reference to second sentence in Comment 9):
# lvcreate -n mylv -L100M vg /dev/sda
  Logical volume "mylv" created.

# ls -la /dev/mapper/vg-mylv
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 7 Oct 10 11:25 /dev/mapper/vg-mylv -> ../dm-2

# lvs -o lv_name,devices vg
  LV   Devices
  mylv /dev/sdb(0)

# cat /sys/block/dm-2/queue/read_ahead_kb
128

# pvmove /dev/sdb /dev/sda
  /dev/sdb: Moved: 20.00%
  /dev/sdb: Moved: 100.00%


lv should have deduced RA of 256kb from /dev/sda but remained unchanged:
# cat /sys/block/dm-2/queue/read_ahead_kb
128

Cloned for further investigation if this can by improved.
