Brian Behlendorf 58bc86c5cb Linux 5.10 compat: use iov_iter in uio structure
As of the 5.10 kernel the generic splice compatibility code has been
removed.  All filesystems are now responsible for registering a
->splice_read and ->splice_write callback to support this operation.

The good news is the VFS provided generic_file_splice_read() and
iter_file_splice_write() callbacks can be used provided the ->iter_read
and ->iter_write callback support pipes.  However, this is currently
not the case and only iovecs and bvecs (not pipes) are ever attached
to the uio structure.

This commit changes that by allowing full iov_iter structures to be
attached to uios.  Ever since the 4.9 kernel the iov_iter structure
has supported iovecs, kvecs, bvevs, and pipes so it's desirable to
pass the entire thing when possible.  In conjunction with this the
uio helper functions (i.e uiomove(), uiocopy(), etc) have been
updated to understand the new UIO_ITER type.

Note that using the kernel provided uio_iter interfaces allowed the
existing Linux specific uio handling code to be simplified.  When
there's no longer a need to support kernel's older than 4.9, then
it will be possible to remove the iovec and bvec members from the
uio structure and always use a uio_iter.  Until then we need to
maintain all of the existing types for older kernels.

Some additional refactoring and cleanup was included in this change:

- Added checks to configure to detect available iov_iter interfaces.
  Some are available all the way back to the 3.10 kernel and are used
  when available.  In particular, uio_prefaultpages() now always uses
  iov_iter_fault_in_readable() which is available for all supported
  kernels.

- The unused UIO_USERISPACE type has been removed.  It is no longer
  needed now that the uio_seg enum is platform specific.

- Moved zfs_uio.c from the zcommon.ko module to the Linux specific
  platform code for the zfs.ko module.  This gets it out of libzfs
  where it was never needed and keeps this Linux specific code out
  of the common sources.

- Removed unnecessary O_APPEND handling from zfs_iter_write(), this
  is redundant and O_APPEND is already handled in zfs_write();

NOTE: Cleanly applying this kernel compatibility change required
applying the following commits.  This makes the change larger than
it absolutely needs to be, but the resulting code matches what's in
the branch branch.  This is both more tested and makes it easier to
apply any future backports in this area.

Use percpu_counter for obj_alloc counter of Linux-backed caches
A previous commit enabled the tracking of object allocations
in Linux-backed caches from the SPL layer for debuggability.
The commit is: 9a170fc6fe

Unfortunately, it also introduced minor performance regressions
that were highlighted by the ZFS perf test-suite. Within Delphix
we found that the regression would be from -1%, all the way up
to -8% for some workloads.

This commit brings performance back up to par by creating a
separate counter for those caches and making it a percpu in
order to avoid lock-contention.

The initial performance testing was done by myself, and the
final round was conducted by @tonynguien who was also the one
that discovered the regression and highlighted the culprit.

may increase performance if the allocator is able to allocate physical
memory, if kvmalloc is available as a public kernel interface (since
v4.12). Otherwise it will simply fall back to virtual memory (vmalloc).

Also fix vmem_alloc implementation which can lead to slow allocations
since the first attempt with kmalloc does not make use of the noretry
flag but tells the linux kernel to retry several times before it fails.

Linux compat: Minimum kernel version 3.10
Increase the minimum supported kernel version from 2.6.32 to 3.10.
This removes support for the following Linux enterprise distributions.

    Distribution     | Kernel | End of Life
    ---------------- | ------ | -------------
    Ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 3.2    | Apr 28, 2017
    SLES 11          | 3.0    | Mar 32, 2019
    RHEL / CentOS 6  | 2.6.32 | Nov 30, 2020

The following changes were made as part of removing support.

* Updated `configure` to enforce a minimum kernel version as
  specified in the META file (Linux-Minimum: 3.10).

    configure: error:
        *** Cannot build against kernel version 2.6.32.
        *** The minimum supported kernel version is 3.10.

* Removed all `configure` kABI checks and matching C code for
  interfaces which solely predate the Linux 3.10 kernel.

* Updated all `configure` kABI checks to fail when an interface is
  missing which was in the 3.10 kernel up to the latest 5.1 kernel.
  Removed the HAVE_* preprocessor defines for these checks and
  updated the code to unconditionally use the verified interface.

* Inverted the detection logic in several kABI checks to match
  the new interface as it appears in 3.10 and newer and not the
  legacy interface.

* Consolidated the following checks in to individual files. Due
  the large number of changes in the checks it made sense to handle
  this now.  It would be desirable to group other related checks in
  the same fashion, but this as left as future work.

  - config/kernel-blkdev.m4 - Block device kABI checks
  - config/kernel-blk-queue.m4 - Block queue kABI checks
  - config/kernel-bio.m4 - Bio interface kABI checks

* Removed the kABI checks for sops->nr_cached_objects() and
  sops->free_cached_objects().  These interfaces are currently unused.

Brian Behlendorf 608f8749a1
Perform KABI checks in parallel
Reduce the time required for ./configure to perform the needed
KABI checks by allowing kbuild to compile multiple test cases in
parallel.  This was accomplished by splitting each test's source
code from the logic handling whether that code could be compiled
or not.

By introducing this split it's possible to minimize the number of
times kbuild needs to be invoked.  As importantly, it means all of
the tests can be built in parallel.  This does require a little extra
care since we expect some tests to fail, so the --keep-going (-k)
option must be provided otherwise some tests may not get compiled.
Furthermore, since a failure during the kbuild modpost phase will
result in an early exit; the final linking phase is limited to tests
which passed the initial compilation and produced an object file.

Once everything has been built the configure script proceeds as
previously.  The only significant difference is that it now merely
needs to test for the existence of a .ko file to determine the
result of a given test.  This vastly speeds up the entire process.

New test cases should use ZFS_LINUX_TEST_SRC to declare their test
source code and ZFS_LINUX_TEST_RESULT to check the result.  All of
the existing kernel-*.m4 files have been updated accordingly, see
config/kernel-current-time.m4 for a basic example.  The legacy
ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE macro has been kept to handle special cases
but it's use is not encouraged.

Per suggestion from @behlendorf in #8777, remove vn_set_fs_pwd() and
vn_set_pwd() which are only used in zfs_ioctl.c:_init() while loading
zfs.ko.

The rest of initialization functions being called here after cwd set
to / don't depend on cwd of the process except for spa_config_load().
spa_config_load() uses a relative path ".//etc/zfs/zpool.cache" when
`rootdir` is non-NULL, which is "/etc/zfs/zpool.cache" given cwd is /,
so just unconditionally use the absolute path without "./", so that
`vn_set_pwd("/")` as well as the entire functions can be removed.
This is also what FreeBSD does.

Rafael Kitover 8b8b44d06f kernel timer API rework
In `config/kernel-timer.m4` refactor slightly to check more generally
for the new `timer_setup()` APIs, but also check the callback signature
because some kernels (notably 4.14) have the new `timer_setup()` API but
use the old callback signature. Also add a check for a `flags` member in
`struct timer_list`, which was added in 4.1-rc8.

Add compatibility shims to `include/spl/sys/timer.h` to allow using the
new timer APIs with the only two caveats being that the callback
argument type must be declared as `spl_timer_list_t` and an explicit
assignment is required to get the timer variable for the `timer_of()`
macro. So the callback would look like this:

```c
__cv_wakeup(spl_timer_list_t t)
{
        struct timer_list *tmr = (struct timer_list *)t;
	struct thing *parent = from_timer(parent, tmr,
		parent_timer_field);
	... /* do stuff with parent */
```

Make some minor changes to `spl-condvar.c` and `spl-taskq.c` to use the
new timer APIs instead of conditional code.

Brian Behlendorf 1b939560be
Add TRIM support
UNMAP/TRIM support is a frequently-requested feature to help
prevent performance from degrading on SSDs and on various other
SAN-like storage back-ends.  By issuing UNMAP/TRIM commands for
sectors which are no longer allocated the underlying device can
often more efficiently manage itself.

This TRIM implementation is modeled on the `zpool initialize`
feature which writes a pattern to all unallocated space in the
pool.  The new `zpool trim` command uses the same vdev_xlate()
code to calculate what sectors are unallocated, the same per-
vdev TRIM thread model and locking, and the same basic CLI for
a consistent user experience.  The core difference is that
instead of writing a pattern it will issue UNMAP/TRIM commands
for those extents.

The zio pipeline was updated to accommodate this by adding a new
ZIO_TYPE_TRIM type and associated spa taskq.  This new type makes
is straight forward to add the platform specific TRIM/UNMAP calls
to vdev_disk.c and vdev_file.c.  These new ZIO_TYPE_TRIM zios are
handled largely the same way as ZIO_TYPE_READs or ZIO_TYPE_WRITEs.
This makes it possible to largely avoid changing the pipieline,
one exception is that TRIM zio's may exceed the 16M block size
limit since they contain no data.

In addition to the manual `zpool trim` command, a background
automatic TRIM was added and is controlled by the 'autotrim'
property.  It relies on the exact same infrastructure as the
manual TRIM.  However, instead of relying on the extents in a
metaslab's ms_allocatable range tree, a ms_trim tree is kept
per metaslab.  When 'autotrim=on', ranges added back to the
ms_allocatable tree are also added to the ms_free tree.  The
ms_free tree is then periodically consumed by an autotrim
thread which systematically walks a top level vdev's metaslabs.

Since the automatic TRIM will skip ranges it considers too small
there is value in occasionally running a full `zpool trim`.  This
may occur when the freed blocks are small and not enough time
was allowed to aggregate them.  An automatic TRIM and a manual
`zpool trim` may be run concurrently, in which case the automatic
TRIM will yield to the manual TRIM.

Fix statfs(2) for 32-bit user space
When handling a 32-bit statfs() system call the returned fields,
although 64-bit in the kernel, must be limited to 32-bits or an
EOVERFLOW error will be returned.

This is less of an issue for block counts since the default
reported block size in 128KiB. But since it is possible to
set a smaller block size, these values will be scaled as
needed to fit in a 32-bit unsigned long.

Unlike most other filesystems the total possible file counts
are more likely to overflow because they are calculated based
on the available free space in the pool. In order to prevent
this the reported value must be capped at 2^32-1. This is
only for statfs(2) reporting, there are no changes to the
internal ZFS limits.

Direct IO support
Direct IO via the O_DIRECT flag was originally introduced in XFS by
IRIX for database workloads. Its purpose was to allow the database
to bypass the page and buffer caches to prevent unnecessary IO
operations (e.g.  readahead) while preventing contention for system
memory between the database and kernel caches.

On Illumos, there is a library function called directio(3C) that
allows user space to provide a hint to the file system that Direct IO
is useful, but the file system is free to ignore it. The semantics
are also entirely a file system decision. Those that do not
implement it return ENOTTY.

Since the semantics were never defined in any standard, O_DIRECT is
implemented such that it conforms to the behavior described in the
Linux open(2) man page as follows.

    1.  Minimize cache effects of the I/O.

    By design the ARC is already scan-resistant which helps mitigate
    the need for special O_DIRECT handling.  Data which is only
    accessed once will be the first to be evicted from the cache.
    This behavior is in consistent with Illumos and FreeBSD.

    Future performance work may wish to investigate the benefits of
    immediately evicting data from the cache which has been read or
    written with the O_DIRECT flag.  Functionally this behavior is
    very similar to applying the 'primarycache=metadata' property
    per open file.

    2. O_DIRECT _MAY_ impose restrictions on IO alignment and length.

    No additional alignment or length restrictions are imposed.

    3. O_DIRECT _MAY_ perform unbuffered IO operations directly
       between user memory and block device.

    No unbuffered IO operations are currently supported.  In order
    to support features such as transparent compression, encryption,
    and checksumming a copy must be made to transform the data.

    4. O_DIRECT _MAY_ imply O_DSYNC (XFS).

    O_DIRECT does not imply O_DSYNC for ZFS.  Callers must provide
    O_DSYNC to request synchronous semantics.

    5. O_DIRECT _MAY_ disable file locking that serializes IO
       operations.  Applications should avoid mixing O_DIRECT
       and normal IO or mmap(2) IO to the same file.  This is
       particularly true for overlapping regions.

    All I/O in ZFS is locked for correctness and this locking is not
    disabled by O_DIRECT.  However, concurrently mixing O_DIRECT,
    mmap(2), and normal I/O on the same file is not recommended.

This change is implemented by layering the aops->direct_IO operations
on the existing AIO operations.  Code already existed in ZFS on Linux
for bypassing the page cache when O_DIRECT is specified.

Add support for autoexpand property
While the autoexpand property may seem like a small feature it
depends on a significant amount of system infrastructure.  Enough
of that infrastructure is now in place that with a few modifications
for Linux it can be supported.

Auto-expand works as follows; when a block device is modified
(re-sized, closed after being open r/w, etc) a change uevent is
generated for udev.  The ZED, which is monitoring udev events,
passes the change event along to zfs_deliver_dle() if the disk
or partition contains a zfs_member as identified by blkid.

From here the device is matched against all imported pool vdevs
using the vdev_guid which was read from the label by blkid.  If
a match is found the ZED reopens the pool vdev.  This re-opening
is important because it allows the vdev to be briefly closed so
the disk partition table can be re-read.  Otherwise, it wouldn't
be possible to report the maximum possible expansion size.

Finally, if the property autoexpand=on a vdev expansion will be
attempted.  After performing some sanity checks on the disk to
verify that it is safe to expand,  the primary partition (-part1)
will be expanded and the partition table updated.  The partition
is then re-opened (again) to detect the updated size which allows
the new capacity to be used.

In order to make all of the above possible the following changes
were required:

* Updated the zpool_expand_001_pos and zpool_expand_003_pos tests.
  These tests now create a pool which is layered on a loopback,
  scsi_debug, and file vdev.  This allows for testing of non-
  partitioned block device (loopback), a partition block device
  (scsi_debug), and a file which does not receive udev change
  events.  This provided for better test coverage, and by removing
  the layering on ZFS volumes there issues surrounding layering
  one pool on another are avoided.

* zpool_find_vdev_by_physpath() updated to accept a vdev guid.
  This allows for matching by guid rather than path which is a
  more reliable way for the ZED to reference a vdev.

* Fixed zfs_zevent_wait() signal handling which could result
  in the ZED spinning when a signal was not handled.

* Removed vdev_disk_rrpart() functionality which can be abandoned
  in favor of kernel provided blkdev_reread_part() function.

* Added a rwlock which is held as a writer while a disk is being
  reopened.  This is important to prevent errors from occurring
  for any configuration related IOs which bypass the SCL_ZIO lock.
  The zpool_reopen_007_pos.ksh test case was added to verify IO
  error are never observed when reopening.  This is not expected
  to impact IO performance.

Additional fixes which aren't critical but were discovered and
resolved in the course of developing this functionality.

* Added PHYS_PATH="/dev/zvol/dataset" to the vdev configuration for
  ZFS volumes.  This is as good as a unique physical path, while the
  volumes are not used in the test cases anymore for other reasons
  this improvement was included.

Linux 4.18 compat: inode timespec -> timespec64
Commit torvalds/linux@95582b0 changes the inode i_atime, i_mtime,
and i_ctime members form timespec's to timespec64's to make them
2038 safe.  As part of this change the current_time() function was
also updated to return the timespec64 type.

Resolve this issue by introducing a new inode_timespec_t type which
is defined to match the timespec type used by the inode.  It should
be used when working with inode timestamps to ensure matching types.

The timestruc_t type under Illumos was used in a similar fashion but
was specified to always be a timespec_t.  Rather than incorrectly
define this type all timespec_t types have been replaced by the new
inode_timespec_t type.

Finally, the kernel and user space 'sys/time.h' headers were aligned
with each other.  They define as appropriate for the context several
constants as macros and include static inline implementation of
gethrestime(), gethrestime_sec(), and gethrtime().

Linux compat 4.18: check_disk_size_change()
Added support for the bops->check_events() interface which was
added in the 2.6.38 kernel to replace bops->media_changed().
Fully implementing this functionality allows the volume resize
code to rely on revalidate_disk(), which is the preferred
mechanism, and removes the need to use check_disk_size_change().

In order for bops->check_events() to lookup the zvol_state_t
stored in the disk->private_data the zvol_state_lock needs to
be held.  Since the check events interface may poll the mutex
has been converted to a rwlock for better concurrently.  The
rwlock need only be taken as a writer in the zvol_free() path
when disk->private_data is set to NULL.

The configure checks for the block_device_operations structure
were consolidated in a single kernel-block-device-operations.m4
file.

The ZFS_AC_KERNEL_BDEV_BLOCK_DEVICE_OPERATIONS configure checks
and assoicated dead code was removed.  This interface was added
to the 2.6.28 kernel which predates the oldest supported 2.6.32
kernel and will therefore always be available.

Updated maximum Linux version in META file.  The 4.17 kernel
was released on 2018-06-03 and ZoL is compatible with the

Seth Forshee 93b43af10d Allow mounting datasets more than once
Currently mounting an already mounted zfs dataset results in an
error, whereas it is typically allowed with other filesystems.
This causes some bad interactions with mount namespaces. Take
this sequence for example:

- Create a dataset
- Create a snapshot of the dataset
- Create a clone of the snapshot
- Create a new mount namespace
- Rename the original dataset

The rename results in unmounting and remounting the clone in the
original mount namespace, however the remount fails because the
dataset is still mounted in the new mount namespace. (Note that
this means the mount in the new mount namespace is never being
unmounted, so perhaps the unmount/remount of the clone isn't
actually necessary.)

The problem here is a result of the way mounting is implemented
in the kernel module. Since it is not mounting block devices it
uses mount_nodev() instead of the usual mount_bdev(). However,
mount_nodev() is written for filesystems for which each mount is
a new instance (i.e. a new super block), and zfs should be able
to detect when a mount request can be satisfied using an existing
super block.

Change zpl_mount() to call sget() directly with it's own test
callback. Passing the objset_t object as the fs data allows
checking if a superblock already exists for the dataset, and in
that case we just need to return a new reference for the sb's
root dentry.

Add kernel module auto-loading
Historically a dynamic misc minor number was registered for the
/dev/zfs device in order to prevent minor number collisions.  This
was fine but it prevented us from being able to use the kernel
module auto-loaded which requires a known reserved value.

Resolve this issue by adding a configure test to find an available
misc minor number which can then be used in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV at
build time.  By adding this alias the zfs kmod is added to the list
of known static-nodes and the systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev service
will create a /dev/zfs character device at boot time.

This in turn allows us to update the 90-zfs.rules file to make it
aware this is a static node.  The upshot of this is that whenever
a process (zpool, zfs, zed) opens the /dev/zfs the kmods will be
automatic loaded.  This even works for unprivileged users so there
is no longer a need to manually load the modules at boot time.

As an additional bonus the zed now no longer needs to start after
the zfs-import.service since it will trigger the module load.

In the unlikely event the minor number we selected conflicts with
another out of tree unregistered minor number the code falls back
to dynamically allocating it.  In this case the modules again
must be manually loaded.

Note that due to the change in the method of registering the minor
number the zimport.sh test case may incorrectly fail when the
static node for the installed packages is created instead of the
dynamic one.  This issue will only transiently impact zimport.sh
for this single commit when we transition and are mixing and
matching methods.

chrisrd e9a7729008 Fix free memory calculation on v3.14+
Provide infrastructure to auto-configure to enum and API changes in the
global page stats used for our free memory calculations.

arc_free_memory has been broken since an API change in Linux v3.14:

2016-07-28 v4.8 599d0c95 mm, vmscan: move LRU lists to node
2016-07-28 v4.8 75ef7184 mm, vmstat: add infrastructure for per-node
  vmstats

These commits moved some of global_page_state() into
global_node_page_state(). The API change was particularly egregious as,
instead of breaking the old code, it silently did the wrong thing and we
continued using global_page_state() where we should have been using
global_node_page_state(), thus indexing into the wrong array via
NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE et al.

There have been further API changes along the way:

2017-07-06 v4.13 385386cf mm: vmstat: move slab statistics from zone to
  node counters
2017-09-06 v4.14 c41f012a mm: rename global_page_state to
  global_zone_page_state

...and various (incomplete, as it turns out) attempts to accomodate
these changes in ZoL:

2017-08-24 2209e409 Linux 4.8+ compatibility fix for vm stats
2017-09-16 787acae0 Linux 3.14 compat: IO acct, global_page_state, etc
2017-09-19 661907e6 Linux 4.14 compat: IO acct, global_page_state, etc

The config infrastructure provided here resolves these issues going back
to the original API change in v3.14 and is robust against further Linux
changes in this area.

1. With various (debug and/or tracing?) kernel options enabled it's

default frame size, leaving errors like this in config.log:

build/conftest.c:116:1: error: the frame size of 1048 bytes is larger
than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

Fix this by removing the frame size warning for config checks

2. Without the correct headers included, it's possible for declarations
to be missed, leaving errors like this in the config.log:

build/conftest.c:131:14: error: ‘struct nameidata’ declared inside

Fix this by adding appropriate headers.

Note: Both these issues can result in silent config failures because
the compile failure is taken to mean "this option is not supported by
this kernel" rather than "there's something wrong with the config
test". This can lead to something merely annoying (compile failures) to
something potentially serious (miscompiled or misused kernel primitives
or functions). E.g. the fixes included here resulted in these
additional defines in zfs_config.h with linux v4.14.19:

Chunwei Chen 1d8da99171 config: allow --with-linux without --with-linux-obj
Don't use `uname -r` to determine kernel build directory when the user
specified kernel source with --with-linux. Otherwise, the user is forced
to use --with-linux-obj even if they are the same directory, which is
very counterintuitive.

Brian Behlendorf 2946a1a15a Linux 4.12 compat: CURRENT_TIME removed
Linux 4.9 added current_time() as the preferred interface to get
the filesystem time.  CURRENT_TIME was retired in Linux 4.12.

Richard Yao bc17f1047a Enable Linux read-ahead for a single page on ZVOLs
Linux has read-ahead logic designed to accelerate sequential workloads.
ZFS has its own read-ahead logic called zprefetch that operates on both
ZVOLs and datasets. Having two prefetchers active at the same time can
cause overprefetching, which unnecessarily reduces IOPS performance on
CoW filesystems like ZFS.

Testing shows that entirely disabling the Linux prefetch results in
a significant performance penalty for reads while commensurate benefits
are seen in random writes. It appears that read-ahead benefits are
inversely proportional to random write benefits, and so a single page
of Linux-layer read-ahead appears to offer the middle ground for both
workloads.

Brian Behlendorf 7dae2c81e7 Linux 4.12 compat: super_setup_bdi_name()
All filesystems were converted to dynamically allocated BDIs.  The
destruction of backing_dev_info structures is handled as part of
super block destruction.  Refactor the code to abstract away the
details of creating and destroying a BDI.

wli5 6a9d635998 GZIP compression offloading with QAT accelerator
This patch implement the hardware accelerator method in GZIP compression
in ZFS. When the ZFS pool is enabled GZIP compression, the compression
API will be automatically transferred to the hardware accelerator to
free up CPU resource and speed up the compression time.

* To enable Intel QAT hardware acceleration in ZOL you need to have QAT
  hardware and the driver installed:
  * QAT hardware DH8950:
  http://ark.intel.com/products/79483/Intel-QuickAssist-Adapter-8950
  * QAT driver:
  https://01.org/intel-quickassist-technology
* Start QAT driver in your system:
  service qat_service start
* Enable QAT in ZFS, e.g.:
  ./configure --with-qat=<qat-driver-path>/QAT1.6
  make
* Set GZIP compression in ZFS dataset:
  zfs set compression = gzip <dataset>
* Get QAT hardware statistics by:
  cat /proc/spl/kstat/zfs/qat
* To disable QAT in ZFS:
  insmod zfs.ko zfs_qat_disable=1
