Richard Yao 6576a1a70d Fix incorrect type in spl_kmem_cache_set_move() parameter
A preprocessor definition renders this harmless. However, it is a good

Etienne Dechamps a9f2397ee9 Determine the hostid on demand.
Currently, the SPL tries to determine the hostid at module load. The
hostid is usually determined by running the userland program "hostid"
during module initialization.

Unfortunately, when the module initializes, it may be way too soon to be
able to run any userland programs. This is especially true when the
module is compiled directly inside the kernel (built-in); in that case,
the SPL would try to run hostid when the kernel is still initializing,
which of course is doomed to fail.

This patch fixes the issue by deferring hostid generation until
something actually needs the hostid (that is, when zone_get_hostid() is
called), thus switching to a "on-initialization" model to a "on-demand"
(lazy loading) model. ZFS only needs the hostid when some pool
operations are requested, and this always happens way after the kernel
has finished initialization, thus solving the problem.

Etienne Dechamps c167aadb27 Add script for builtin module building.
This commit introduces a "copy-builtin" script designed to prepare a
kernel source tree for building SPL as a builtin module. The script
makes a full copy of all needed files, thus making the kernel source
tree fully independent of the spl source package.

To achieve that, some compilation flags (-include, -I) have been moved
to module/Makefile. This Makefile is only used when compiling external
modules; when compiling builtin modules, a Kbuild file generated by the
configure-builtin script is used instead. This makes sure Makefiles
inside the kernel source tree does not contain references to the spl
source package.

Etienne Dechamps 38b5ff4d07 Fix undefined reference on spl_mutex_spin_max().
Commit 3160d4f56b changed the set of
conditions under which spl_mutex_spin_max would be implemented as a
function by changing an #if in sys/mutex.h. The corresponding
implementation file spl-mutex.c, however, has not been updated to
reflect the change. This results in undefined reference errors on
spl_mutex_spin_max under the following condition:

((!CONFIG_SMP || CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES) && HAVE_MUTEX_OWNER && HAVE_TASK_CURR)

This patch fixes the issue by using the same #if in sys/mutex.h and
spl-mutex.c.

Richard Yao 36811b4430 Detect kernels that honor gfp flags passed to vmalloc()
zfsonlinux/spl@2092cf68d8 used
PF_MEMALLOC to workaround a bug in the Linux kernel where
allocations did not honor the gfp flags passed to vmalloc().
Unfortunately, PF_MEMALLOC has the side effect of permitting
allocations to allocate pages outside of ZONE_NORMAL. This
has been observed to result in the depletion of ZONE_DMA32.

A kernel patch is available in the Gentoo bug tracker for
this issue.

  https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416685

This negates any benefit PF_MEMALLOC provides, so we introduce
an autotools check to disable the use of PF_MEMALLOC on
systems with patched kernels.

Brian Behlendorf b78d4b9d98 Ensure a minimum of one slab is reclaimed
To minimize the chance of triggering an OOM during direct reclaim.
The kmem caches have been improved to make a best effort to reclaim
at least one slab when a reclaim function is registered.  This helps
avoid the case where objects are released but they are spread over
multiple slabs so no memory gets reclaimed.

Care has been taken to avoid deadlocking if the reclaim function
is unable to make forward progress.  Additionally, the reclaim
function may be skipped entirely if there are already free slabs
which can be safely reaped.

Brian Behlendorf 06089b9e19 Ensure direct reclaim forward progress
The Linux direct reclaim path uses this out of band value to
determine if forward progress is being made.  Normally this is
incremented by kmem_freepages() which is part of the various
Linux slab implementations.  However, since we are using none
of that infrastructure we're responsible for incrementing this
count.

If no forward progress is detected and a subsequent allocation
fails the OOM killer will be invoked.  If there was forward
progress additional reclaim will be attempted via the page
cache and registerd shrinker until the allocation succeeds.

                      log.  The granularity of the logging can be
                      controlled by a debug mask.  By default the

Ned Bass 3c6ed5410b Taskq locking optimizations
Testing has shown that tq->tq_lock can be highly contended when a
large number of small work items are dispatched.  The lock hold time
is reduced by the following changes:

1) Use exclusive threads in the work_waitq

When a single work item is dispatched we only need to wake a single
thread to service it.  The current implementation uses non-exclusive
threads so all threads are woken when the dispatcher calls wake_up().
If a large number of threads are in the queue this overhead can become
non-negligible.

2) Conditionally add/remove threads from work waitq

Taskq threads need only add themselves to the work wait queue if
there are no pending work items.

Ned Bass 0bb43ca282 Revert "Taskq locking optimizations"
This reverts commit ec2b41049f.

A race condition was introduced by which a wake_up() call can be lost
after the taskq thread determines there is no pending work items,
leading to deadlock:

1. taksq thread enables interrupts
2. dispatcher thread runs, queues work item, call wake_up()
3. taskq thread runs, adds self to waitq, sleeps

This could easily happen if an interrupt for an IO completion was
outstanding at the point where the taskq thread reenables interrupts,
just before the call to add_wait_queue_exclusive().  The handler would
run immediately within the race window.

If a large number of threads are in the queue this overhead can become

2) Conditionally add/remove threads from work waitq outside of tq_lock

Taskq threads need only add themselves to the work wait queue if there
are no pending work items.  Furthermore, the add and remove function
calls can be made outside of the taskq lock since the wait queues are
protected from concurrent access by their own spinlocks.

3) Call wake_up() outside of tq->tq_lock

Again, the wait queues are protected by their own spinlock, so the
dispatcher functions can drop tq->tq_lock before calling wake_up().

A new splat test taskq:contention was added in a prior commit to measure
the impact of these changes.  The following table summarizes the
results using data from the kernel lock profiler.

                        tq_lock time    %diff   Wall clock (s)  %diff
original:               39117614.10     0       41.72           0

unlocked wake_up():     1589172.08      95.9    16.61           60.2

Each row reflects the average result over 5 test runs.
/proc/lock_stats was zeroed out before and collected after each run.
Column 1 is the cumulative hold time in microseconds for tq->tq_lock.
The tests are cumulative; each row reflects the code changes of the
previous rows.  %diff is calculated with respect to "original" as
100*(orig-new)/orig.

Although calling wake_up() outside of the taskq lock dramatically
reduced the taskq lock hold time, the test actually took slightly more
wall clock time.  This is because the point of contention shifts from
the taskq lock to the wait queue lock.  But the change still seems
worthwhile since it removes our taskq implementation as a bottleneck,
assuming the small increase in wall clock time to be statistical
noise.

Prakash Surya 8f2503e0af Store copy of tqent_flags prior to servicing task
A preallocated taskq_ent_t's tqent_flags must be checked prior to
servicing the taskq_ent_t. Once a preallocated taskq entry is serviced,
the ownership of the entry is handed back to the caller of
taskq_dispatch, thus the entry's contents can potentially be mangled.

In particular, this is a problem in the case where a preallocated taskq
entry is serviced, and the caller clears it's tqent_flags field. Thus,
when the function returns and task_done is called, it looks as though
the entry is **not** a preallocated task (when in fact it **is** a
preallocated task).

In this situation, task_done will place the preallocated taskq_ent_t
structure onto the taskq_t's free list. This is a **huge** mistake. If
the taskq_ent_t is then freed by the caller of taskq_dispatch, the
taskq_t's free list will hold a pointer to garbage data. Even worse, if
nothing has over written the freed memory before the pointer is
dereferenced, it may still look as though it points to a valid list_head
belonging to a taskq_ent_t structure.

Thus, the task entry's flags are now copied prior to servicing the task.
This copy is then checked to see if it is a preallocated task, and
determine if the entry needs to be passed down to the task_done
function.

Prakash Surya e7e5f78e7b Swap taskq_ent_t with taskqid_t in taskq_thread_t
The taskq_t's active thread list is sorted based on its
tqt_ent->tqent_id field. The list is kept sorted solely by inserting
new taskq_thread_t's in their correct sorted location; no other
means is used. This means that once inserted, if a taskq_thread_t's
tqt_ent->tqent_id field changes, the list runs the risk of no
longer being sorted.

Prior to the introduction of the taskq_dispatch_prealloc() interface,
this was not a problem as a taskq_ent_t actively being serviced under
the old interface should always have a static tqent_id field. Thus,
once the taskq_thread_t is added to the taskq_t's active thread list,
the taskq_thread_t's tqt_ent->tqent_id field would remain constant.

Now, this is no longer the case. Currently, if using the
taskq_dispatch_prealloc() interface, any given taskq_ent_t actively
being serviced _may_ have its tqent_id value incremented. This happens
when the preallocated taskq_ent_t structure is recursively dispatched.
Thus, a taskq_thread_t could potentially have its tqt_ent->tqent_id
field silently modified from under its feet. If this were to happen
to a taskq_thread_t on a taskq_t's active thread list, this would
compromise the integrity of the order of the list (as the list
_may_ no longer be sorted).

To get around this, the taskq_thread_t's taskq_ent_t pointer was
replaced with its own static copy of the tqent_id. So, as a taskq_ent_t
is pulled off of the taskq_t's pending list, a static copy of its
tqent_id is made and this copy is used to sort the active thread
list. Using a static copy is key in ensuring the integrity of the
order of the active thread list. Even if the underlying taskq_ent_t
is recursively dispatched (as has its tqent_id modified), this
static copy stored inside the taskq_thread_t will remain constant.

keeping a list of taskq_ent_t's which are currently being serviced, a
list of taskq_threads currently servicing a taskq_ent_t is kept. This
frees up the taskq_ent_t's tqent_list field when it is being serviced

will be empty).

Brian Behlendorf fe71c0e567 Linux 3.1 compat, shrink_*cache_memory
As of Linux 3.1 the shrink_dcache_memory and shrink_icache_memory
functions have been removed.  This same task is now accomplished
more cleanly with per super block shrinkers.  This unfortunately
leaves us no easy way to support the dnlc_reduce_cache() function.

This support has always been entirely optional.  So when no
reasonable interface is available allow the dnlc_reduce_cache()
function to effectively become a no-op.

The downside of this change is that it will prevent the zfs arc
meta data limts from being enforced.  However, the current zfs
implementation in this regard is already flawed and needs to
be reworked.  If the arc needs to enfore a meta data limit it
will need to be extended to coordinate directly with the zpl.
This will allow us to drop all this compatibility code and get
more fine grained control over the cache management.

Brian Behlendorf 12ff95ff57 Linux 3.1 compat, kern_path_parent()
Prior to Linux 3.1 the kern_path_parent symbol was exported for
use by kernel modules.  As of Linux 3.1 it is now longer easily
available.  To handle this case the spl will now dynamically
look up address of the missing symbol at module load time.

Brian Behlendorf b8b6e4c453 Fix NULL deref in balance_pgdat()
Be careful not to unconditionally clear the PF_MEMALLOC bit in
the task structure.  It may have already been set when entering
kv_alloc() in which case it must remain set on exit.  In
particular the kswapd thread will have PF_MEMALLOC set in
order to prevent it from entering direct reclaim.  By clearing
it we allow the following NULL deref to potentially occur.

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)

Gunnar Beutner f3989ed322 vn_rdwr() didn't properly advance the file position
This would cause problems when using 'zfs send' with a file as the
target (rather than a pipe or a socket as is usually the case) as
for each write the destination offset in the file would be 0.

Gunnar Beutner 8d177c181f Fixed typo in spl_slab_alloc()
The typo did not have any effect (apart from a negligible performance
impact) because skc->skc_flags * KMC_OFFSLAB is always non-null when
at least one bit in skc->skc_flags is set.

Gunnar Beutner 64c075c3f4 Properly destroy work items in spl_kmem_cache_destroy()
In a non-debug build the ASSERT() would be optimized away
which could cause pending work items to not be cancelled.

We must also use cancel_delayed_work_sync() rather than just
cancel_delayed_work() to actually wait until work items have
completed.  Otherwise they might accidentally access free'd
memory.

No longer print the following warning to the console when the

Keeping the hostid in sync with the initramfs is now accomplished
by creating the /etc/hostid in the initramfs not on the system.

Darik Horn 0d54dcb566 Read the /etc/hostid file directly.
Deprecate the /usr/bin/hostid call by reading the /etc/hostid file
directly. Add the spl_hostid_path parameter to override the default
/etc/hostid path.

Rename the set_hostid() function to hostid_exec() to better reflect
actual behavior and complement the new hostid_read() function.

Use HW_INVALID_HOSTID as the spl_hostid sentinel value because
zero seems to be a valid gethostid() result on Linux.

Darik Horn ad35b6a6e9 Remove the gawk dependency.
This reverts commit 1814251453.

Demote the gawk call back to awk and ensure that stderr is attached.  GNU gawk
tolerates a missing stderr handle, but many utilities do not, which could be
why a regular awk call was unexplainably failing on some systems.

Use argv[0] instead of sh_path for consistency internally and with other Linux

Provide a call_usermodehelper() alternative by letting the hostid be passed as
a module parameter like this:

Internally change the spl_hostid variable to unsigned long because that is the
type that the coreutils /usr/bin/hostid returns.

Brian Behlendorf 3dfc591ac4 Linux 2.6.39 compat, zlib_deflate_workspacesize()
The function zlib_deflate_workspacesize() now take 2 arguments.
This was done to avoid always having to allocate the maximum size
workspace (268K).  The caller can now specific the windowBits and
memLevel compression parameters to get a smaller workspace.

For our purposes we introduce a spl_zlib_deflate_workspacesize()
wrapper which accepts both arguments.  When the two argument
version of zlib_deflate_workspacesize() is available the arguments
are passed through.  When it's not we assume the worst case and
a maximally sized workspace is used.
