Update udev helper scripts to deal with device-mapper devices created
by multipathd. These enhancements are targeted at a particular
storage network topology under evaluation at LLNL consisting of two
SAS switches providing redundant connectivity between multiple server
nodes and disk enclosures.
The key to making these systems manageable is to create shortnames for
each disk that conveys its physical location in a drawer. In a
direct-attached topology we infer a disk's enclosure from the PCI bus
number and HBA port number in the by-path name provided by udev. In a
switched topology, however, multiple drawers are accessed via a single
HBA port. We therefore resort to assigning drawer identifiers based
on which switch port a drive's enclosure is connected to. This
information is available from sysfs.
Add options to zpool_layout to generate an /etc/zfs/zdev.conf using
symbolic links in /dev/disk/by-id of the form
<label>-<UUID>-switch-port:<X>-slot:<Y>. <label> is a string that
depends on the subsystem that created the link and defaults to
"dm-uuid-mpath" (this prefix is used by multipathd). <UUID> is a
unique identifier for the disk typically obtained from the scsi_id
program, and <X> and <Y> denote the switch port and disk slot numbers,
respectively.
Add a callout script sas_switch_id for use by multipathd to help
create symlinks of the form described above. Update zpool_id and the
udev zpool rules file to handle both multipath devices and
conventional drives.
Change the variable substitution in the udev rule templates
according to the method described in the Autoconf manual;
Chapter 4.7.2: Installation Directory Variables.
The udev rules are improperly generated if the bindir parameter
overrides the prefix parameter during configure. For example:
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --bindir=/opt/zfs/bin
The udev helper is installed as /opt/zfs/bin/zpool_id, but the
corresponding udev rule has a different path:
# /usr/local/etc/udev/rules.d/60-zpool.rules
ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", IMPORT{program}="/usr/local/bin/zpool_id -d %p"
The @bindir@ variable expands to "${exec_prefix}/bin", so it cannot
be used instead of @prefix@ directly.
This also applies to the zvol_id helper.
Closes#283.
The udev/rules.d scripts must use absolute paths to their support
binaries. However, where those binaries get installed depends
on what --prefix was set to when the package was configured.
This change makes the udev/rules.d helpers to *.in files which
are processed by configure. This allows them to be dynamically
updated to include the specified --prefix.
Additionally, this change updates 60-zvol.rules to handle both
the 'add' and 'change' actions. This ensures that that all
valid zvol devices are correctly linked.
To simplify the process of using zfs as your root filesystem a
zfs-drucat sub-package has been added. This sub-package adds a zfs
dracut module which allows your initramfs to be rebuilt with zfs
support. The process for doing this is still complicated but there
is clearly interest from the community about getting this working
well and documented. This should help lay some of the groundwork.
Longer term these changes should be pushed in the upstream dracut
package. Once that occurs this subpackage will no longer be
required for new systems, however we may want to conditionally
build this package in the future for systems running older
dracut versions.

To support automatically mounting your zfs on filesystem on boot
a basic init script is needed. Unfortunately, every distribution
has their own idea of the _right_ way to do things. Rather than
write one very complicated portable init script, which would be
invariably replaced by the distributions own anyway. I have
instead added support to provide multiple distribution specific
init scripts.
The correct init script for your distribution will be selected
by ZFS_AC_DEFAULT_PACKAGE which will set DEFAULT_INIT_SCRIPT.
During 'make install' the correct script for your system will
be installed from zfs/etc/init.d/zfs.DEFAULT_INIT_SCRIPT to the
usual /etc/init.d/zfs location.
Currently, there is zfs.fedora and a more generic zfs.lsb init
script. Hopefully, the distribution maintainers who know best
how they want their init scripts to function will feedback their
approved versions to be included in the project.
This change does not consider upstart jobs but I'm not at all
opposed to add that sort of thing.
Several issues related to strange mount/umount behavior were reported
and this commit should address most of them. The original idea was
to put in place a zfs mount helper (mount.zfs). This helper is used
to enforce 'legacy' mount behavior, and perform any extra mount argument
processing (selinux, zfsutil, etc). This helper wasn't ready for the
0.6.0-rc1 release but with this change it's functional but needs to
extensively tested.
This change addresses the following open issues.

This commit allows zvols with names longer than 32 characters, which
fixes issue on https://github.com/behlendorf/zfs/issues/#issue/102.
Changes include:
- use /dev/zd* device names for zvol, where * is the device minor
(include/sys/fs/zfs.h, module/zfs/zvol.c).
- add BLKZNAME ioctl to get dataset name from userland
(include/sys/fs/zfs.h, module/zfs/zvol.c, cmd/zvol_id).
- add udev rule to create /dev/zvol/[dataset_name] and the legacy
/dev/[dataset_name] symlink. For partitions on zvol, it will create
/dev/zvol/[dataset_name]-part* (etc/udev/rules.d/60-zvol.rules,
cmd/zvol_id).

Lay the initial ground work for a include/linux/ compatibility
directory. This was less critical in the past because the bulk
of the ZFS code consumes the Solaris API via the SPL. This API
was stable and the bulk Linux API differences were handled in
the SPL.
However, with the addition of a full Posix layer written directly
against the Linux APIs we are going to need more compatibility
code. It makes sense that all this code should be cleanly located
in one place. Subsequent patches should move the existing zvol
and vdev_disk compatibility code in to this directory.
By default the zpool_layout command would always use the slot
number assigned by Linux when generating the zdev.conf file.
This is a reasonable default there are cases when it makes
sense to remap the slot id assigned by Linux using your own
custom mapping.
This commit adds support to zpool_layout to provide a custom
slot mapping file. The file contains in the first column the
Linux slot it and in the second column the custom slot mapping.
By passing this map file with '-m map' to zpool_config the
mapping will be applied when generating zdev.conf.
Additionally, two sample mapping have been added which reflect
different ways to map the slots in the dragon drawers.
One of the neat tricks an autoconf style project is capable of
is allow configurion/building in a directory other than the
source directory. The major advantage to this is that you can
build the project various different ways while making changes
in a single source tree.
For example, this project is designed to work on various different
Linux distributions each of which work slightly differently. This
means that changes need to verified on each of those supported
distributions perferably before the change is committed to the
public git repo.
Using nfs and custom build directories makes this much easier.
I now have a single source tree in nfs mounted on several different
systems each running a supported distribution. When I make a
change to the source base I suspect may break things I can
concurrently build from the same source on all the systems each
in their own subdirectory.
wget -c http://github.com/downloads/behlendorf/zfs/zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz
tar -xzf zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd zfs-x-y-z
------------------------- run concurrently ----------------------

mkdir ubuntu mkdir fedora mkdir debian mkdir rhel6
cd ubuntu cd fedora cd debian cd rhel6
../configure ../configure ../configure ../configure
make make make make
make check make check make check make check
This change also moves many of the include headers from individual
incude/sys directories under the modules directory in to a single
top level include directory. This has the advantage of making
the build rules cleaner and logically it makes a bit more sense.
All changes needed for the libspl layer. This includes modifications
to files directly copied from OpenSolaris and the addition of new
files needed to fill in the gaps.

Add autoconf style build infrastructure to the ZFS tree. This
includes autogen.sh, configure.ac, m4 macros, some scripts/*,
and makefiles for all the core ZFS components.
of the kernel specific build info in to config/kernel,
likewise and user specific build flags should go in
config/user. This seems like a reasonable way to go.
