One has to refresh the pool to get the correct pool info, this
patch refreshes the pool after creating a volume in code instead.
Pool refreshing failure is fine to ignore with a warning.

I don't want to say NACK just like that, but I think the bug indicates
there's a problem in the storage driver. It should automatically
reflect the changes made to that pool.
That's the thing I mentioned long time ago. Using things like inotify
to update the pool's info (though inotify doesn't work for all pool
types, such as iscsi).
I didn't mean responding to user-created volumes. The user has to do
pool-refresh after that, that's their business as they do something
behind libvirt's back.
Right in principle.
But when the driver does something (with the
pool), it should update its info accordingly without the need to
refresh it.
Right too. This applies to deleteVol/resizeVol too. But as I said, though
calliing refreshPool in these APIs is not the best method, but it's the
generic
thing what current storage driver does. Assuming that we won't
reply on 3rd project/tools, we have to introduce something like event to
let the pool refresh itself. It's just not much better than calling
refreshPool
in the APIs, as it should call refreshPool anyway finally.
What's the structure that gets
updated only with refresh and not after the vol is created?
Can you explain more about this? I guess you mean the vol is
created outside of libvirt? such as a iscsi target create a new
LUN?
Does it do
with all the drivers?
Not sure what do you mean for "drivers". But I guess you mean
"storage backends" here? if so, yes. All the current storage backends
support "refreshPool"/
Yes, backends. I meant what drivers has this issue.
Long story short; I think this bug fixes the symptom, not the problem.
As said above, you have a right opinion. The pool should be notified
asynchronously, but it's thing I don't have enough time to do currently.
Not quite what I meant, corrected myself above.
Martin
I think we are still talking aout two different things, let me explain on code.
This is how I would solve the issue (just for creating the volume, this would
have to be similarly adapted to resize, wipe and delete, but that shouldn't be
more than few lines):
Okay, I know your meaning now.

Though this is only for fs backend, I could see your thought (only
refresh the
pool's capacity, available, and allocation, without collecting the
volumes), right?
This makes sense for fs backend indeed, but not for some of the other
backends, for instance, scsi backend pool, it populates the pool's capacity,
available, allocation while scanning the LUNs...
