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.

Fixed In Version: lvm2-2.02.98-1.el6
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Feature: The lvm2app library now reports the data_percent field which indicates how full snapshots, thin pools and volumes are. (The Logical Volume needs to be active to obtain this information.) Reason: Thin snapshots have a new different way of reporting its usage.

Description benscott 2012-10-01 05:40:23 UTC
Description of problem:

When using liblvm2app on a thin snapshot
the following code causes a segfault:

value = lvm_lv_get_property(lvmLV, "snap_percent"); 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  LVM version:     2.02.98(2)-git (2012-08-24)
  Library version: 1.02.77-git (2012-08-24)
  Driver version:  4.22.0

Comment 2 Zdenek Kabelac 2012-10-08 11:58:06 UTC
Fix upstream  (avoid detecting snap_percent on non-snap volume)

https://www.redhat.com/archives/lvm-devel/2012-October/msg00026.html


NB:  thin snapshot doesn't have  'snap_percent' property - only 'data_percent' since thin_pool shares all the space between all its volume. Thus you could only obtain value of 'mapped' spaces (just like with any other thin volume).

Comment 4 Zdenek Kabelac 2012-10-12 09:24:34 UTC
Here is simple    lvm2api test program which should pass now:

----
# Create pool & thin & snap LVs

lvcreate -L5M -T vg/pool
lvcreate -V1M -T vg/pool -n thin
lvcreate -s vg/thin -n snap

----
#include "lvm2app.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	lvm_t handle;
	vg_t vg;
	lv_t lv;
	struct lvm_property_value v;

	handle = lvm_init(NULL);
	vg = lvm_vg_open(handle, argv[1], "r", 0);
	lv = lvm_lv_from_name(vg, "snap");
	v = lvm_lv_get_property(lv, "snap_percent");

	lvm_vg_close(vg);
	lvm_quit(handle);

	return 0;
}

Comment 7 Corey Marthaler 2013-01-03 00:09:13 UTC
Marking verified (Sanity Only), as snapshot testing of thin volumes is pretty solid in the latest rpms.
