OK, let me show you. I created an LV with:
lvcreate --name testlv0 --size 100m --mirror 1 testvg

lvs -o +devices
  LV              VG     Attr   LSize   Origin Snap%  Move Log          Copy%  Devices
  testlv0         testvg mwi-a- 100.00M                    testlv0_mlog 100.00 testlv0_mimage_0(0),testlv0_mimage_1(0)

Any other suggestion for a -o option? I tried stripes, segtype, seg_start,
seg_size, seg_tags, regionsize, mirror_log and lvs --segments.

I can't find an option for pvs that prints the allocation map, nor for
vgs. Any suggestions?
