наб 18edf7a3ba contrib: dracut: fix race with root=zfs:dset when necessities required
This had always worked in my testing, but a user on hardware reported
this to happen 100%, and I reproduced it once with cold VM host caches.

dracut-zfs-generator runs as a systemd generator, i.e. at Some
Relatively Early Time; if root= is a fixed dataset, it tries to
"solve [necessities] statically at generation time".

If by that point zfs-import.target hasn't popped (because the import is
taking a non-negligible amount of time for whatever reason), it'll see
no children for the root datase, and as such generate no mounts.

This has never had any right to work. No-one caught this earlier because
it's just that much more convenient to have root=zfs:AUTO, which orders
itself properly.

To fix this, always run zfs-nonroot-necessities.service;
this additionally simplifies the implementation by:
  * making BOOTFS from zfs-env-bootfs.service be the real, canonical,
    root dataset name, not just "whatever the first bootfs is",
    and only set it if we're ZFS-booting
  * zfs-{rollback,snapshot}-bootfs.service can use this instead of
    re-implementing it
  * having zfs-env-bootfs.service also set BOOTFSFLAGS
  * this means the sysroot.mount drop-in can be fixed text
  * zfs-nonroot-necessities.service can also be constant and always
    enabled, because it's conditioned on BOOTFS being set

There is no longer any code generated at run-time
(the sysroot.mount drop-in is an unavoidable gratuitous cp).

The flow of BOOTFS{,FLAGS} from zfs-env-bootfs.service to sysroot.mount
is not noted explicitly in dracut.zfs(7), because (a) at some point it's
just visual noise and (b) it's already ordered via d-p-m.s from z-i.t.

Akash B 7ac732b8d6 Add options to zfs redundant_metadata property
Currently, additional/extra copies are created for metadata in
addition to the redundancy provided by the pool(mirror/raidz/draid),
due to this 2 times more space is utilized per inode and this decreases
the total number of inodes that can be created in the filesystem. By
setting redundant_metadata to none, no additional copies of metadata
are created, hence can reduce the space consumed by the additional
metadata copies and increase the total number of inodes that can be
created in the filesystem.  Additionally, this can improve file create
performance due to the reduced amount of metadata which needs
to be written.

наб a38e7bc922 zpoolprops.7: document leaked
It's noted very scarcely in the code as it stands, indeed the only
actual comment on this is

  /*
   * We have finished background destroying, but there is still
   * some space left in the dp_free_dir. Transfer this leaked
   * space to the dp_leak_dir.
   */

Introduced in fbeddd60b7 ("Illumos 4390 -
I/O errors can corrupt space map when deleting fs/vol"),
which explains, alongside the references, that this can only happen
with a corrupted pool

Nowhere in the description of the failmode property does it
clearly state how to bring a suspended pool back online.
Add a few words to property description and the zpool-clear(8)
man page.

it is not outright stated that options should be comma-separated, nor is
