The udev data directory was hard coded in 60-vdev.rules.in. That causes
a problem when a distribution changes the location of the directory.
This was not an issue in the past because virtually all distributions
used the same path, but that is beginning to change following a decision
by the systemd developers to change the directory location to reflect
their take-over of udev maintainership. The testing branch of Gentoo
Linux adopted this change, which enabled the hardcoded directory
location to trigger a regression.

Gunnar Beutner did all the hard work on this one by correctly
identifying that this issue is a race between dmu_sync() and
dbuf_dirty().
Now in all cases the caller is responsible for preventing this
race by making sure the zfs_range_lock() is held when dirtying
a buffer which may be referenced in a log record. The mmap
case which relies on zfs_putpage() was not taking the range
lock. This code was accidentally dropped when the function
was rewritten for the Linux VFS.
This patch adds the required range locking to zfs_putpage().
It also adds the missing ZFS_ENTER()/ZFS_EXIT() macros which
aren't strictly required due to the VFS holding a reference.
However, this makes the code more consistent with the upsteam
code and there's no harm in being extra careful here.

When using a zvol to back a btrfs filesystem the btrfs mount
would hang. This was due to the bio completion callback used
in btrfs assuming that lower level drivers would never modify
the bio->bi_io_vecs after they were submitted via bio_submit().
If they are modified btrfs will miscalculate which pages need
to be unlocked resulting in a hang.
It's worth mentioning that other file systems such as ext[234]
and xfs work fine because they do not make the same assumption
in the bio completion callback.
The most straight forward way to fix the issue is to present
the semantics expected by btrfs. This is done by cloning the
bios attached to each request and then using the clones bvecs
to perform the required accounting. The clones are freed after
each read/write and the original unmodified bios are linked back
in to the request.

The interface for the ddt_zap_count() function assumes it can
never fail. However, internally ddt_zap_count() is implemented
with zap_count() which can potentially fail. Now because there
was no way to return the error to the caller a VERIFY was used
to ensure this case never happens.
Unfortunately, it has been observed that pools can be damaged in
such a way that zap_count() fails. The result is that the pool can
not be imported without hitting the VERIFY and crashing the system.
This patch reworks ddt_object_count() so the error can be safely

During 'zpool import' all ZPOOL_CONFIG_PATH names are supposed
to be updated by fix_paths(). This was not happening for spare
and cache devices because the proper names were getting filtered
out of the pool_list_t->names. Interestingly, the names were
being filtered because the spare and cache devices do not
contain the pool name in their vdev label.
The fix is to exclude the device path from the list only if:
1) has a valid ZPOOL_CONFIG_POOL_NAME key in the label, and
2) that pool name does not match the specified pool name.
Since the label is valid and because it does properly store the
vdev guid it will be correctly assembled without the pool name.

The 'zpool replace' command would fail when given a short name
because unlike on other platforms the short name cannot be
deterministically expanded to a single path. Multiple path
prefixes must be checked and in addition the partition suffix
for whole disks is determined by the prefix.
To handle this complexity a zfs_strcmp_pathname() function was
added which takes either a short or fully qualified device name.
Short names will be expanded using the prefixes in the default
import search path, or the ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH environment variable
if it's defined. All posible expansions are then compared against
the comparison path. Care is taken to strip redundant slashes to
ensure legitimate matches are not missed.
In the context of this work the existing zfs_resolve_shortname()
function was extended to consider the ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH when set.
The zfs_append_partition() interface was also simplified to take
only a single buffer.
The vast majority of these changes rework existing Linux specific
code which was originally written to accomidate udev. However,
there is some minimal cleanup which removes Illumos specific code.
This was done to improve readability but the basic flow and intent
of the upstream code was maintained.

In the current code, logbias=throughput implies the following:
1) All synchronous writes are logged in indirect mode.
2) The slog is not used.
(1) makes sense because it avoids writing the data twice, which is
obviously a good thing when the user wants maximum pool throughput.
(2), however, is a surprising decision. Considering all writes are
indirect, the log record doesn't contain the actual data, only pointers
to DMU blocks. As a result, log records written in logbias=throughput
mode are quite small, and as such, it doesn't make any sense to write
them to the main pool since slogs are usually optimized for small
synchronous writes.
In fact, the current behavior is actually harmful for performance,
because log blocks and data blocks from dmu_sync() seldom have the same
allocation size and as a result are usually allocated from different
metaslabs. This means that if a spindle has to write both log blocks and
DMU blocks (which is likely to happen under heavy load), it will have to
seek between the two. Allocating the log blocks from the slog pool
instead of the main pool avoids these unnecessary seeks.
This commit makes ZFS use the slog on datasets with logbias=throughput.
Real-life performance testing shows a 50% synchronous write performance
increase with some large commit sizes, and no negative effect in other
cases.

Issue #1013
Currently, ZIL blocks are spread over vdevs using hint block pointers
managed by the ZIL commit code and passed to metaslab_alloc(). Spreading
log blocks accross vdevs is important for performance: indeed, using
mutliple disks in parallel decreases the ZIL commit latency, which is
the main performance metric for synchronous writes. However, the current
implementation suffers from the following issues:
1) It would be best if the ZIL module was not aware of such low-level
details. They should be handled by the ZIO and metaslab modules;
2) Because the hint block pointer is managed per log, simultaneous
commits from multiple logs might use the same vdevs at the same time,
which is inefficient;
3) Because dmu_write() does not honor the block pointer hint, indirect
writes are not spread.
The naive solution of rotating the metaslab rotor each time a block is
allocated for the ZIL or dmu_sync() doesn't work in practice because the
first ZIL block to be written is actually allocated during the previous
commit. Consequently, when metaslab_alloc() decides the vdev for this
block, it will do so while a bunch of other allocations are happening at
the same time (from dmu_sync() and other ZILs). This means the vdev for
this block is chosen more or less at random. When the next commit
happens, there is a high chance (especially when the number of blocks
per commit is slightly less than the number of the disks) that one disk
will have to write two blocks (with a potential seek) while other disks
are sitting idle, which defeats spreading and increases the commit
latency.
This commit introduces a new concept in the metaslab allocator:
fastwrites. Basically, each top-level vdev maintains a counter
indicating the number of synchronous writes (from dmu_sync() and the
ZIL) which have been allocated but not yet completed. When the metaslab
is called with the FASTWRITE flag, it will choose the vdev with the
least amount of pending synchronous writes. If there are multiple vdevs
with the same value, the first matching vdev (starting from the rotor)
is used. Once metaslab_alloc() has decided which vdev the block is
allocated to, it updates the fastwrite counter for this vdev.
The rationale goes like this: when an allocation is done with
FASTWRITE, it "reserves" the vdev until the data is written. Until then,
all future allocations will naturally avoid this vdev, even after a full
rotation of the rotor. As a result, pending synchronous writes at a
given point in time will be nicely spread over all vdevs. This contrasts
with the previous algorithm, which is based on the implicit assumption
that blocks are written instantaneously after they're allocated.
metaslab_fastwrite_mark() and metaslab_fastwrite_unmark() are used to
manually increase or decrease fastwrite counters, respectively. They
should be used with caution, as there is no per-BP tracking of fastwrite
information, so leaks and "double-unmarks" are possible. There is,
however, an assert in the vdev teardown code which will fire if the
fastwrite counters are not zero when the pool is exported or the vdev
removed. Note that as stated above, marking is also done implictly by
metaslab_alloc().
ZIO also got a new FASTWRITE flag; when it is used, ZIO will pass it to
the metaslab when allocating (assuming ZIO does the allocation, which is
only true in the case of dmu_sync). This flag will also trigger an
unmark when zio_done() fires.
A side-effect of the new algorithm is that when a ZIL stops being used,
its last block can stay in the pending state (allocated but not yet
written) for a long time, polluting the fastwrite counters. To avoid
that, I've implemented a somewhat crude but working solution which
unmarks these pending blocks in zil_sync(), thus guaranteeing that
linguering fastwrites will get pruned at each sync event.
The best performance improvements are observed with pools using a large
number of top-level vdevs and heavy synchronous write workflows
(especially indirect writes and concurrent writes from multiple ZILs).
Real-life testing shows a 200% to 300% performance increase with
indirect writes and various commit sizes.

Currently, the size of read and write requests on vdevs is aligned
according to the vdev's ashift, allocating a new ZIO buffer and padding
if need be.
This makes sense for write requests to prevent read/modify/write if the
write happens to be smaller than the device's internal block size.
For reads however, the rationale is less clear. It seems that the
original code aligns reads because, on Solaris, device drivers will
outright refuse unaligned requests.
We don't have that issue on Linux. Indeed, Linux block devices are able
to accept requests of any size, and take care of alignment issues
themselves.
As a result, there's no point in enforcing alignment for read requests
on Linux. This is a nice optimization opportunity for two reasons:
- We remove a memory allocation in a heavily-used code path;
- The request gets aligned in the lowest layer possible, which shrinks
the path that the additional, useless padding data has to travel.
For example, when using 4k-sector drives that lie about their sector
size, using 512b read requests instead of 4k means that there will
be less data traveling down the ATA/SCSI interface, even though the
drive actually reads 4k from the platter.
The only exception is raidz, because raidz needs to read the whole
allocated block for parity.
This patch removes alignment enforcement for read requests, except on
raidz. Note that we also remove an assertion that checks that we're
aligning a top-level vdev I/O, because that's not the case anymore for
repair writes that results from failed reads.

There are currently three vmem_size() consumers all of which are
part of the ARC implemention. However, since the expected behavior
of the Linux and Solaris virtual memory subsystems are so different
the behavior in each of these instances needs to be reevaluated.
* arc_evict_needed() - This is actually dead code. Arena support
was never added to the SPL and zio_arena is always NULL. This
support isn't needed so we simply remove this dead code.
* arc_memory_throttle() - On Solaris where virtual memory constitutes
almost all of the address space we can reasonably expect there to be
a fairly large amount free. However, on Linux by default we only
have about 100MB total and that's heavily used by the ARC. So the
expectation on Linux is that this will usually be a small value.
Therefore we remove the vmem_size() check for i386 systems because
the expectation is that it will be less than the zfs_write_limit_max.
* arc_init() - Here vmem_size() is used to initially size the ARC.
Since the ARC is currently backed by the virtual address space it
makes sense to use this as a limit on the ARC for 32-bit systems.
This code can be removed when the ARC is backed by the page cache.

Commit c409e4647f introduced a
number of module parameters. This required several types to be
changed to accomidate the required module parameters Linux macros.
Unfortunately, arc.c contained its own extern definition of the
zfs_write_limit_max variable and its type was not updated to be
consistent with its dsl_pool.c counterpart. If the variable had
been properly marked extern in a common header, then gcc would
have generated a warning and this would not have slipped through.
The result of this was that the ARC unconditionally expected
zfs_write_limit_max to be 64-bit. Unfortunately, the largest size
integer module parameter that Linux supports is unsigned long, which
varies in size depending on the host system's native word size. The
effect was that on 32-bit systems, ARC incorrectly performed 64-bit
operations on a 32-bit value by reading the neighboring 32 bits as
the upper 32 bits of the 64-bit value.
We correct that by changing the extern declaration to use the unsigned
long type and move these extern definitions in to the common arc.h
header. This should make ARC correctly treat zfs_write_limit_max as a
32-bit value on 32-bit systems.

Currently, ztest expects to get 3 and 4 as the file descriptors for

This patch fixes the issue by removing the assumptions on the file

For the random file (/dev/urandom), the new code doesn't rely on a

For the data file, the new code writes the file descriptor number into
