The mount(8) command will helpfully try to resolve any device name
which is passed in. It does this by applying some simple heuristics
before passing it along to the registered mount helper.
Normally this fine. However, one of these heuristics is to prepend
the current working directory to the passed device name. If that
resulting directory name exists mount(8) will perform the mount(2)
system call and never invoke the helper utility.
Since the cwd for systemd when running as the system instance is
the root directory the default mount points created by zfs(8) can
cause a mount failure.
This change avoids the issue by explicitly setting the cwd to
a different path when performing the mount.

Issue #3837
This change modifies the import service to use the default cache file
to perform a verbatim import of pools at boot. This fixes code that
searches all devices and imported all visible pools.
Using the cache file is in keeping with the way ZFS has always worked,
how Solaris, Illumos, FreeBSD, and systemd performs imports, and is how
it is written in the man page (zpool(1M,8)):
All pools in this cache are automatically imported when the
system boots.
Importantly, the cache contains important information for importing
multipath devices, and helps control which pools get imported in more
dynamic environments like SANs, which may have thousands of visible
and constantly changing pools, which the ZFS_POOL_EXCEPTIONS variable
is not equipped to handle. Verbatim imports prevent rogue pools from
being automatically imported and mounted where they shouldn't be.
The change also stops the service from exporting pools at shutdown.
Exporting pools is only meant to be performed explicitly by the
administrator of the system.
The old behavior of searching and importing all visible pools is
preserved and can be switched on by heeding the warning and toggling
the ZPOOL_IMPORT_ALL_VISIBLE variable in /etc/default/zfs.

ZED depends on /var. When /var is a separate dataset, it must be
mounted before starting ZED. This change moves the zfs-zed service
from starting first, to starting after zfs-mount, but before zfs-share.
As discussed in issue #3513, ZED does not need to start first in order
to consume events made during the zfs-import and zfs-mount services.
The events will be queued and can be handled later in the boot process.
ZED may, however, handle sharing in the future, so it should be started
before the zfs-share service.
This commit also stops the zfs-import service from writing temp files
to /var/tmp on shutdown and it corrects the return code for the OpenRC

Use the 'mount' command instead of /proc/mounts to get a list of matching

This because /proc/mounts reports a pool with a space 'rpool 1' as
'rpool\0401'. The space is encoded as 3-digit octal which is legal.
However 'printf "%b"', which we use to filter out other illegal
characters (such as slash, space etc) can't properly interpret this
because it expects 4-digit octal. We get a instead of the space
we expected. The correct value should have been 'rpool\00401' (note
the additional leading zero).
So use 'mount', which interprets all backslash-escapes correctly,

* ZFS_INITRD_PRE_MOUNTROOT_SLEEP

* ZFS_INITRD_POST_MODPROBE_SLEEP
Set a timed sleep in the initrd to after the load of the zfs module.
* ZFS_INITRD_ADDITIONAL_DATASETS
To allow for mounting additional datasets in the initrd. Primarily used
in initrd scripts to allow for when filesystem needed to boot (such as
/usr, /opt, /var etc) isn't directly under the root dataset.
* ZFS_POOL_EXCEPTIONS
Exclude pools from being imported (in the initrd and/or init scripts).
* ZFS_DKMS_ENABLE_DEBUG, ZFS_DKMS_ENABLE_DEBUG_DMU_TX, ZFS_DKMS_DISABLE_STRIP
Set to control how dkms should build the dkms packages.
* ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH
Set path(s) where "zpool import" should import pools from.
This was previously the job of "USE_DISK_BY_ID" (which is still used
for backwards compatibility) but was renamed to allow for better
control of import path(s).
* If old USE_DISK_BY_ID is set, but not new ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH, then we
set ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH to sane defaults just to be on the safe side.
* ZED_ARGS
To allow for local options to zed without having to change the init script.
* The import function, do_import(), imports pools by name instead of '-a'
for better control of pools to import and from where.
* If USE_DISK_BY_ID is set (for backwards compatibility), but isn't 'yes'
then ignore it.
* If pool(s) isn't found with a simple "zpool import" (seen it happen),
try looking for them in /dev/disk/by-id (if it exists). Any duplicates
(pools found with both commands) is filtered out.
* IF we have found extra pool(s) this way, we must force USE_DISK_BY_ID
so that the first, simple "zpool import $pool" is able to find it.
* Fallback on importing the pool using the cache file (if it exists) only
if 'simple' import (either with ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH or the 'built in'
defaults) didn't work.
* The export function, do_export(), will export all pools imported, EXCEPT
the root pool (if there is one).
* ZED script from the Debian GNU/Linux packages added.
* Refreshed ZED init script from behlendorf@5e7a660 to be portable so it
may be used on both LSB and Redhat style systems.
* If there is no pool(s) imported and zed successfully shut down, we will
unload the zfs modules.
* The function library file for the ZoL init script is installed as
/etc/init.d/zfs-functions.
* The four init scripts, the /etc/{defaults,sysconfig,conf.d}/zfs config file
as well as the common function library is tagged as '%config(noreplace)' in
the rpm rules file to make sure they are not replaced automatically if locally
modifed.
* Pitfals and workarounds:
* If we're running from init, remove stale /etc/dfs/sharetab before importing
pools in the zfs-import init script.
* On Debian GNU/Linux, there's a 'sendsigs' script that will kill basically
everything quite early in the shutdown phase and zed is/should be stopped
much later than that. We don't want zed to be among the ones killed, so add
the zed pid to list of pids for 'sendsigs' to ignore.
* CentOS uses echo_success() and echo_failure() to print out status of
command. These in turn uses "echo -n \0xx[etc]" to move cursor and choose
colour etc. This doesn't work with the modified IFS variable we need to
use in zfs-import for some reason, so work around that when we define
zfs_log_{end,failure}_msg() for RedHat and derivative distributions.
* All scripts passes ShellCheck (with one false positive in do_mount()).

While module loading itself is synchronous the creation of the /dev/zfs
device is not. This is because /dev/zfs is typically created by a udev
rule after the module is registered and presented to user space through
sysfs. This small window between module loading and device creation
can result in spurious failures of libzfs_init().
This patch closes that race by extending libzfs_init() so it can detect
that the modules are loaded and only if required wait for the /dev/zfs
device to be created. This allows scripts to reliably use the following
shell construct without the need for additional error handling.
$ /sbin/modprobe zfs && /sbin/zpool import -a
To minimize the potential time waiting in libzfs_init() a strategy
similar to adaptive mutexes is employed. The function will busy-wait
for up to 10ms based on the expectation that the modules were just
loaded and therefore the /dev/zfs will be created imminently. If it
takes longer than this it will fall back to polling for up to 10 seconds.
This behavior can be customized to some degree by setting the following
new environment variables. This functionality is provided for backwards
compatibility with existing scripts which depend on the module auto-load
behavior. By default module auto-loading is now disabled.
* ZFS_MODULE_LOADING="YES|yes|ON|on" - Attempt to load modules.
* ZFS_MODULE_TIMEOUT="<seconds>" - Seconds to wait for /dev/zfs
The zfs-import-* systemd service files have been updated to call
'/sbin/modprobe zfs' so they no longer rely on the legacy auto-loading
behavior.

The vdev_id udev helper currently applies slot renumbering rules to
every channel (JBOD) in the system. This is too inflexible for systems
with non-homogeneous storage topologies. The "slot" keyword now takes
an optional third parameter which names a channel to which the mapping
will apply. If the third parameter is omitted then the rule applies to
all channels. The first-specified rule that can match a slot takes
precedence. Therefore a channel-specific rule for a given slot should
generally appear before a generic rule for the same slot number. In
this way a custom slot mapping can be applied to a particular channel
and a default mapping applied to the rest.

The current zfs OpenRC script's dependencies cause OpenRC to attempt to
unmount ZFS filesystems at shutdown while things were still using them,
which would fail. This is a cosmetic issue, but it should still be
addressed. It probably does not affect systems where the rootfs is a
legacy filesystem, but any system with the rootfs on ZFS needs to run
the ZFS init script after the system is ready to shutdown filesystems.
OpenRC's shutdown process occurs in the reverse order of the startup
process. Therefore running the ZFS shutdown procedure after filesystems
are ready to be unmounted requires running the startup procedure before
fstab. This patch changes the dependencies of the script to expliclty
run before fstab at boot when the rootfs is ZFS and to run after fstab
at boot whenever the rootfs is not ZFS. This should cover most use
cases.
The only cases not covered well by this are systems with legacy
root filesystems where people want to configure fstab to mount a non-ZFS
filesystem off a zvol and possibly also systems whose pools are stored
on network block devices. The former requires that the ZFS script run
before fstab, which could cause ZFS datasets to mount too early and
appear under the fstab mount points. The latter requires that the ZFS
script run after networking starts, which precludes the ability to store
any system information on ZFS. An additional OpenRC script could be
written to handle non-root pools on network block devices, but that will
depend on user demand and developer time.

to 69. With this change, vdev_id now provides functionality analogous
to zpool_id and zpool_layout, paving the way to retire those tools.
A defined alias takes precedence over a topology-derived name, but the
two naming methods can otherwise coexist. For example, one might name
drives in a JBOD with the sas_direct topology while naming an internal
L2ARC device with an alias.
For example, the following lines in vdev_id.conf will result in the
creation of links /dev/disk/by-vdev/{d1,d2}, each pointing to the same
target as the device link specified in the third field.
# by-vdev
# name fully qualified or base name of device link
alias d1 /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x5000c5002de3b9ca
alias d2 wwn-0x5000c5002def789e
Also perform some minor vdev_id cleanup, such as removal of the unused
-s command line option.

Currently, zvols have a discard granularity set to 0, which suggests to
the upper layer that discard requests of arbirarily small size and
alignment can be made efficiently.
In practice however, ZFS does not handle unaligned discard requests
efficiently: indeed, it is unable to free a part of a block. It will
write zeros to the specified range instead, which is both useless and
inefficient (see dnode_free_range).
With this patch, zvol block devices expose volblocksize as their discard
granularity, so the upper layer is aware that it's not supposed to send
discard requests smaller than volblocksize.

The end_writeback() function was changed by moving the call to
inode_sync_wait() earlier in to evict(). This effecitvely changes
the ordering of the sync but it does not impact the details of
the zfs implementation.
However, as part of this change end_writeback() was renamed to
clear_inode() to reflect the new semantics. This change does
impact us and clear_inode() now maps to end_writeback() for
kernels prior to 3.5.
