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.

Comment 1 benscott 2012-10-07 23:12:16 UTC 
When using the lvm2app library get property function:

        value = lvm_lv_get_property(lvmLV, "origin");
        if (value.is_valid) {
            m_origin = value.value.string;

the origin of non-thin snapshots is returned as expected
but the origin of thin snapshots of thin volumes is "".

Fixed upstream with commit:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/lvm-devel/2012-October/msg00099.html


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, "origin");

	lvm_vg_close(vg);
	lvm_quit(handle);

	return (v.is_valid && (strcmp(v.value.string, "thin") == 0)) ? 0 : 1;
}
