[linux-lvm] LVM2 commands sometimes were hanged after upgrade to v2.02.180 from v2.02.120

[linux-lvm] LVM2 commands sometimes were hanged after upgrade to v2.02.180 from v2.02.120

[Gang He]

Hello List,

I am using LVM2 v2.02.180 in a clvmd based cluster (three nodes), but sometimes I encountered lvm2 command hang problem.
When the comand is hanged, all lvm2 related commands from each node will be hanged.
For example,
First command was hanged at node 2,
sle12sp4b2-nd2:/ # pvmove -i 5 -v /dev/vdb /dev/vdc
    Archiving volume group "cluster-vg2" metadata (seqno 34).
    Creating logical volume pvmove1
    Moving 2560 extents of logical volume cluster-vg2/test-lv.

sle12sp4b2-nd2:/ # cat /proc/15074/stack
[<ffffffffb4662f4b>] unix_stream_read_generic+0x66b/0x870
[<ffffffffb4663215>] unix_stream_recvmsg+0x45/0x50
[<ffffffffb459ad66>] sock_read_iter+0x86/0xd0
[<ffffffffb4240239>] __vfs_read+0xd9/0x140
[<ffffffffb4240fe7>] vfs_read+0x87/0x130
[<ffffffffb42424a2>] SyS_read+0x42/0x90
[<ffffffffb4003924>] do_syscall_64+0x74/0x150
[<ffffffffb480009a>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x3d/0xa2
[<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

Then, I run "lvs command on each node, the command was hanged, like
sle12sp4b2-nd2:/ # lvs

sle12sp4b2-nd2:/ # cat /proc/15553/stack
[<ffffffffc059b638>] dm_consult_userspace+0x1e8/0x490 [dm_log_userspace]

[<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff


Since I am trying to upgrade LVM2 from vv2.02.120 to v2.02.180, 
I do not know what is the real cause to this problem? 
maybe it is related to /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file? since the item raid_region_size = 2048 in the new conf, but in the past conf raid_region_size = 512,
or any other configuration items? 

To fix this problem, I have to make the configuration file is consistent on each node, and reboot all the nodes.

Thanks
Gang
