By the time we're tearing down our superblock the VFS has started releasing
all our inodes/znodes. Some of this work may have been handed off to our
iput taskq so we need to wait for that work to complete. However the iput
from the taskq can itself result in additional work being added to the
taskq:
dsl_pool_iput_taskq
iput
iput_final
evict
destroy_inode
zpl_inode_destroy
zfs_inode_destroy
zfs_iput_async(ZTOI(zp->z_xattr_parent))
taskq_dispatch(dsl_pool_iput_taskq..., iput, ...)
Let's wait until all our znodes have been released.

It's been reported that threads would loop infinitely inside zfs_zget. The
speculated cause for this is that if an inode is marked for evict, zfs_zget
would see that and loop. However, if the looping thread doesn't yield, the
inode may not have a chance to finish evict, thus causing a infinite loop.
This patch solve this issue by add cond_resched to zfs_zget, making the
looping thread to yield when needed.

In traverse_visitbp(), the input argument dnp is modified in the middle to
point to a temporary buffer. Originally this doesn't matter, because no user
of TRAVERSE_POST dereferences it. However, in fbeddd6 a piece of code is added
dereferencing dnp after the modification, creating a possible bug.
We fix this by creating a new local variable cdnp for the DMU_OT_DNODE case,
so we don't modify the input argument. Also we introduce different local
variables in the DMU_OT_OBJSET case to prevent confusion between the input
argument.

This patch stack begins with cleaning up the existing ZEDLETs,
refactoring common code blocks into zed-functions.sh, adopting a
more consistent coding style, updating exit codes, etc. All scripts
now run cleanly through ShellCheck.
The old "email" ZEDLETs are replaced with new "notify" ZEDLETs. A
notification can now be sent via email and/or Pushbullet. Additional
notification methods will likely be added in the future.
Pushbullet notifications are enabled by setting the
ZED_PUSHBULLET_ACCESS_TOKEN and (optionally) ZED_PUSHBULLET_CHANNEL_TAG
in zed.rc. The Pushbullet implementation requires awk, curl, and sed
executables to be installed in the standard PATH.

The data-notify.sh ZEDLET serves a very similar purpose to
io-notify.sh, namely, to generate a notification in response to a
particular error event. Initially, data-notify.sh was separated from
io-notify.sh since the "data" zevent does not (as I understand it)
pertain to a specific vdev device. This stands in contrast to the
"checksum" and "io" zevents (both handled by io-notify.sh) that can
be attributed to a specific vdev. At the time, it seemed simpler to
handle these two cases in separate scripts.
This commit adds support for the "data" zevent to io-notify.sh, and
symlinks io-notify.sh to data-notify.sh. It also adds the counts
for vdev_read_errors, vdev_write_errors, and vdev_cksum_errors to
the notification message.

The io-spare.sh ZEDLET does not generate a notification when a failing

replaced with a hot spare after encountering a checksum or io error.

This commit adds the zed_notify_pushbullet() function and hooks
it into zed_notify(), thereby integrating it with the existing
"notify" ZEDLETs. This enables ZED to push notifications to your
desktop computer and/or mobile device(s). It is configured with the
ZED_PUSHBULLET_ACCESS_TOKEN and ZED_PUSHBULLET_CHANNEL_TAG variables
in zed.rc.
https://www.pushbullet.com/
The Makefile install-data-local target has been replaced with
install-data-hook. With the "-local" target, there is no particular
guarantee of execution order. But with the zed.rc now potentially
containing sensitive information (i.e., the Pushbullet access token),
the recommended permissions have changed to 0600. The "-hook" target
is always executed after the main rule's work is done; thus, the
chmod will always take place after the zed.rc file has been installed.

Several ZEDLETs already exist for sending email in reponse to a
particular zevent. While email is ubiquitous, alternative methods may
be better suited for some configurations. Instead of duplicating the
"email" ZEDLETs for every future notification method, it is preferable
to abstract the notification method into a function. This has the
added benefit of reducing the amount of code duplicated between
ZEDLETs, and allowing related bugs to be fixed in a single location.
This commit replaces the existing "email" ZEDLETs with corresponding
"notify" ZEDLETs. In addition, the ZEDLET code for sending an
email message has been moved into the zed_notify_email() function.
And this zed_notify_email() has been added to a generic zed_notify()
function for sending notifications via all available methods that
have been configured.
This commit also changes a couple of related zed.rc variables.
ZED_EMAIL_INTERVAL_SECS is changed to ZED_NOTIFY_INTERVAL_SECS,
and ZED_EMAIL_VERBOSE is changed to ZED_NOTIFY_VERBOSE. Note that
ZED_EMAIL remains unchanged as its use is solely for the email
notification method.

This commit factors out several common ZEDLET code blocks into

In addition, this commit revamps the coding style used by the
scripts to be more consistent and (again, hopefully) maintainable.
It now mostly follows the Google Shell Style Guide. I've tried to

The culprit is that ZFS_EXIT(zsb) would call tsd_exit() every time, which
would purge all tsd data for the thread. However, ZFS_ENTER is designed to be
reentrant, so we cannot allow ZFS_EXIT to blindly purge tsd data.
Instead, we rely on the new behavior of tsd_set. When NULL is passed as the
new value to tsd_set, it will automatically remove the tsd entry specified the
the key for the current thread.
rrw_tsd_key and zfs_allow_log_key already calls tsd_set(key, NULL) when
they're done. The zfs_fsyncer_key relied on ZFS_EXIT(zsb) to call tsd_exit() to
do clean up. Now we explicitly call tsd_set(key, NULL) on them.

As of this commit, volumes do not possess the version property in
any existing OpenZFS implementation. The zpool upgrade code, however,
uses zfs_prop_get_int() to fetch the version property of all children in
a pool. The semantics of the function, however, demand that it only be
used for known valid properties so it returns a garbage value for volumes.
This patch causes the version of a volume to appear to callers using
the zfs_prop_get_int() API to be that of the default ZPL version for
the implementation. In the future, should volumes gain the property,
its actual value will be used.

The "zpool status" output shows the full pathname for file-type vdevs,
but only the basename component for disk-type vdevs. In commit
bee6665, the "basename" command was dropped from altering the vdev
name used when searching the "zpool status" output. Consequently,
hot-disk sparing for disk vdevs broke since "zpool status" output
was now being searched for the full pathname to the disk vdev.
Parsing the "zpool status" output in this manner is rather brittle.
It would be preferable to search for the vdev based on its guid.
But until that happens, this commit adds back the "basename" command
to fix the vdev name breakage.

The Linux slab, in general, performs better than the SPl slab in cases
where a lot of objects are allocated and fragmentation is likely present.
This patch fixes pathologically bad behavior in cases where the ARC is
filled with mostly metadata and a user program needs to allocate and
dirty enough memory which would require an insignificant amount of the
ARC to be reclaimed.
If zfs_znode_cache is on the SPL slab, the system may spin for a very
long time trying to reclaim sufficient memory. If it is on the Linux
slab, the behavior has been observed to be much more predictible; the
memory is reclaimed more efficiently.
