Allow zfs datasets to be mounted on Linux without relying on the
invocation of an external processes. This is the same behavior
which is implemented for FreeBSD.
Use of the libmount library was originally considered because it
provides functionality to properly lock and update the /etc/mtab
file. However, these days /etc/mtab is typically a symlink to
/proc/self/mounts so there's nothing to updated. Therefore, we
call mount(2) directly and avoid any additional dependencies.
If required the legacy behavior can be enabled by setting the
ZFS_MOUNT_HELPER environment variable. This may be needed in
environments where SELinux in enabled and the zfs binary does
not have mount permission.

OpenZFS provides a library called tpool which implements thread
pools for user space applications. Porting this library means
the zpool utility no longer needs to borrow the kernel mutex and
taskq interfaces from libzpool. This code was updated to use
the tpool library which behaves in a very similar fashion.
Porting libtpool was relatively straight forward and minimal
modifications were needed. The core changes were:
* Fully convert the library to use pthreads.
* Updated signal handling.
* lmalloc/lfree converted to calloc/free
* Implemented portable pthread_attr_clone() function.
Finally, update the build system such that libzpool.so is no
longer linked in to zfs(8), zpool(8), etc. All that is required
is libzfs to which the zcommon soures were added (which is the way
it always should have been). Removing the libzpool dependency
resulted in several build issues which needed to be resolved.
* Moved zfeature support to module/zcommon/zfeature_common.c
* Moved ratelimiting to to module/zfs/zfs_ratelimit.c
* Moved get_system_hostid() to lib/libspl/gethostid.c

Commit torvalds/linux@9e8925b6 allowed for kernels to be built
without support for mandatory locking (MS_MANDLOCK). This will
result in 'zfs mount' failing when the nbmand=on property is set
if the kernel is built without CONFIG_MANDATORY_FILE_LOCKING.
Unfortunately we can not reliably detect prior to the mount(2) system
call if the kernel was built with this support. The best we can do
is check if the mount failed with EPERM and if we passed 'mand'
as a mount option and then print a more useful error message. e.g.
filesystem 'tank/fs' has the 'nbmand=on' property set, this mount
option may be disabled in your kernel. Use 'zfs set nbmand=off'
to disable this option and try to mount the filesystem again.
Additionally, switch the default error message case to use
strerror() to produce a more human readable message.

Four new dataset properties have been added to support SELinux. They

directly to the context options described in mount(8). When one of
these properties is set to something other than 'none'. That string
will be passed verbatim as a mount option for the given context when
the filesystem is mounted.
For example, if you wanted the rootcontext for a filesystem to be set
to 'system_u:object_r:fs_t' you would set the property as follows:
$ zfs set rootcontext="system_u:object_r:fs_t" storage-pool/media
This will ensure the filesystem is automatically mounted with that
rootcontext. It is equivalent to manually specifying the rootcontext
with the -o option like this:
$ zfs mount -o rootcontext=system_u:object_r:fs_t storage-pool/media
By default all four contexts are set to 'none'. Further information
on SELinux contexts is detailed in mount(8) and selinux(8) man pages.

Libraries that depend on other libraries should list them in ELF's
DT_NEEDED field so that programs linking to them do not need to specify
those libraries unless they depend on them as well. This is not the case
in the current code and the consequence is that anything that needs a
library must know its dependencies. This is fragile and caused GRUB2's
configure script to break when a dependency was added on libblkid in
libzfs.
This resolves that problem by using LIBADD/LDADD to specify libraries in
Makefile.am instead of LDFLAGS. This ensures that proper DT_NEEDED
entries are generated and prevents GRUB2's configure script from
breaking in the presence of a libblkid dependency. This also removes
unneeded dependencies from various files.

When calling mount(), care must be taken to avoid passing in flags
that are used only by the user space utilities. Otherwise we may
stomp on flags that are reserved for other purposes in the kernel.
In particular, openSUSE 12.3 kernels have added a new MS_RICHACL
super-block flag whose value conflicts with our MS_COMMENT flag. This
causes incorrect behavior such as the umask being ignored. The
MS_COMMENT flag essentially serves as a placeholder in the option_map
data structure of zfs_mount.c, but its value is never used. Therefore
we can avoid the conflict by defining it to 0.
The MS_USERS, MS_OWNER, and MS_GROUP flags also conflict with reserved
flags in the kernel. While this is not known to have caused any
problems, it is nevertheless incorrect. For the purposes of the
mount.zfs helper, the "users", "owner", and "group" options just serve
as hints to set additional implied options. Therefore we now define
their associated mount flags in terms of the options that they imply
rather than giving them unique values.

Currently, zpool online -e (dynamic vdev expansion) doesn't work on
whole disks because we're invoking ioctl(BLKRRPART) from userspace
while ZFS still has a partition open on the disk, which results in
EBUSY.
This patch moves the BLKRRPART invocation from the zpool utility to the
module. Specifically, this is done just before opening the device in
vdev_disk_open() which is called inside vdev_reopen(). This requires
jumping through some hoops to get to the disk device from the partition
device, and to make sure we can still open the partition after the
BLKRRPART call.
Note that this new code path is triggered on dynamic vdev expansion
only; other actions, like creating a new pool, are unchanged and still
call BLKRRPART from userspace.
This change also depends on API changes which are available in 2.6.37
and latter kernels. The build system has been updated to detect this,
but there is no compatibility mode for older kernels. This means that
online expansion will NOT be available in older kernels. However, it
will still be possible to expand the vdev offline.

Additionally, ZFS_CONFIG has been added to zfs_config.h for
packages which build against these headers. This is critical
to ensure both zfs and the dependant package are using the same
prototype and structure definitions.

DISCARD (REQ_DISCARD, BLKDISCARD) is useful for thin provisioning.
It allows ZVOL clients to discard (unmap, trim) block ranges from
a ZVOL, thus optimizing disk space usage by allowing a ZVOL to
shrink instead of just grow.
We can't use zfs_space() or zfs_freesp() here, since these functions
only work on regular files, not volumes. Fortunately we can use the
low-level function dmu_free_long_range() which does exactly what we
want.
Currently the discard operation is not added to the log. That's not
a big deal since losing discard requests cannot result in data
corruption. It would however result in disk space usage higher than
it should be. Thus adding log support to zvol_discard() is probably
a good idea for a future improvement.
