In order for cppcheck to perform a proper analysis it needs to be
aware of how the sources are compiled (source files, include
paths/files, extra defines, etc). All the needed information is
available from the Makefiles and can be leveraged with a generic
cppcheck Makefile target. So let's add one.
Additional minor changes:
* Removing the cppcheck-suppressions.txt file. With cppcheck 2.3
and these changes it appears to no longer be needed. Some inline
suppressions were also removed since they appear not to be
needed. We can add them back if it turns out they're needed
for older versions of cppcheck.
* Added the ax_count_cpus m4 macro to detect at configure time how
many processors are available in order to run multiple cppcheck
jobs. This value is also now used as a replacement for nproc
when executing the kernel interface checks.
* "PHONY =" line moved in to the Rules.am file which is included
at the top of all Makefile.am's. This is just convenient becase
it allows us to use the += syntax to add phony targets.
* One upside of this integration worth mentioning is it now allows
`make cppcheck` to be run in any directory to check that subtree.
* For the moment, cppcheck is not run against the FreeBSD specific
kernel sources. The cppcheck-FreeBSD target will need to be
implemented and testing on FreeBSD to support this.

The SPL kmem_cache implementation provides a mechanism, `skc_reclaim`,
whereby individual caches can register a callback to be invoked when
there is memory pressure. This mechanism is used in only one place: the
ARC registers the `hdr_recl()` reclaim function. This function wakes up
the `arc_reap_zthr`, whose job is to call `kmem_cache_reap()` and
`arc_reduce_target_size()`.
The `skc_reclaim` callbacks are invoked only by shrinker callbacks and
`arc_reap_zthr`, and only callback only wakes up `arc_reap_zthr`. When
called from `arc_reap_zthr`, waking `arc_reap_zthr` is a no-op. When
called from shrinker callbacks, we are already aware of memory pressure
and responding to it. Therefore there is little benefit to ever calling
the `hdr_recl()` `skc_reclaim` callback.
The `arc_reap_zthr` also wakes once a second, and if memory is low when
allocating an ARC buffer. Therefore, additionally waking it from the
shrinker calbacks has little benefit.
The shrinker callbacks can be invoked very frequently, e.g. 10,000 times
per second. Additionally, for invocation of the shrinker callback,
skc_reclaim is invoked many times. Therefore, this mechanism consumes
significant amounts of CPU time.
The kmem_cache shrinker calls `spl_kmem_cache_reap_now()`, which,
in addition to invoking `skc_reclaim()`, does two things to attempt to
free pages for use by the system:
1. Return free objects from the magazine layer to the slab layer
2. Return entirely-free slabs to the page layer (i.e. free pages)
These actions apply only to caches implemented by the SPL, not those
that use the underlying kernel SLAB/SLUB caches. The SPL caches are
used for objects >=32KB, which are primarily linear ABD's cached in the
DBUF cache.
These actions (freeing objects from the magazine layer and returning
entirely-free slabs) are also taken whenever a `kmem_cache_free()` call
finds a full magazine. So there would typically be zero entirely-free
slabs, and the number of objects in magazines is limited (typically no
more than 64 objects per magazine, and there's one magazine per CPU).
Therefore the benefit of `spl_kmem_cache_reap_now()`, while nonzero, is
modest.
We also call `spl_kmem_cache_reap_now()` from the `arc_reap_zthr`, when
memory pressure is detected. Therefore, calling
`spl_kmem_cache_reap_now()` from the kmem_cache shrinker is not needed.
This commit removes the `skc_reclaim` mechanism, its only callback
`hdr_recl()`, and the kmem_cache shrinker callback.

The SPL provides a wrapper for the kernel's shrinker callbacks, which
enables the ZFS code to interface with multiple versions of the shrinker
API's from different kernel versions. Specifically, Linux kernels 3.0 -
3.11 has a single "combined" callback, and Linux kernels 3.12 and later
have two "split" callbacks. The SPL provides a wrapper function so that
the ZFS code only needs to implement one version of the callbacks.
Currently the SPL's wrappers are designed such that the ZFS code
implements the older, "combined" callback. There are a few downsides to
this approach:
* The general design within ZFS is for the latest Linux kernel to be
considered the "first class" API.
* The newer, "split" callback API is easier to understand, because each
callback has one purpose.
* The current wrappers do not completely abstract out the differing
API's, so ZFS code needs `#ifdef` code to handle the differing return
values required for different kernel versions.
This commit addresses these drawbacks by having the ZFS code provide the
latest, "split" callbacks, and the SPL provides a wrapping function for
the older, "combined" API.

On Illumos callers of cv_timedwait and cv_timedwait_hires
can't distinguish between whether or not the cv was signaled
or the call timed out. Illumos handles this (for some definition
of handles) by calling cv_signal in the return path if we were
signaled but the return value indicates instead that we timed
out. This would make sense if it were possible to query the the
cv for its net signal disposition. However, this isn't possible
and, in spite of the fact that there are places in the code that
clearly take a different and incompatible path if a timeout value
is indicated, this distinction appears to be rather subtle to most
developers. This problem is further compounded by the fact that on
Linux, calling cv_signal in the return path wouldn't even do the
right thing unless there are other waiters.
Since it is possible for the caller to independently determine how
much time is remaining but it is not possible to query if the cv
was in fact signaled, prioritizing signalling over timeout seems
like a cleaner solution. In addition, judging from usage patterns
within the code itself, it is also less error prone.

__zio_execute() calls zio_taskq_member() to determine if we are running
in a zio interrupt taskq, in which case we may need to switch to
processing this zio in a zio issue taskq. The call to
zio_taskq_member() can become a performance bottleneck when we are
processing a high rate of zio's.
zio_taskq_member() calls taskq_member() on each of the zio interrupt
taskqs, of which there are 21. This is slow because each call to
taskq_member() does tsd_get(taskq_tsd), which on Linux is relatively
slow.
This commit improves the performance of zio_taskq_member() by having it
cache the value of tsd_get(taskq_tsd), reducing the number of those
calls to 1/21th of the current behavior.
In a test case running `zfs send -c >/dev/null` of a filesystem with
small blocks (average 2.5KB/block), zio_taskq_member() was using 6.7% of
one CPU, and with this change it is reduced to 1.3%. Overall time to
perform the `zfs send` reduced by 10% (~150,000 block/sec to ~165,000
blocks/sec).

When growing the size of a (VMEM or KVMEM) kmem cache, spl_cache_grow()
always does taskq_dispatch(spl_cache_grow_work), and then waits for the
KMC_BIT_GROWING to be cleared by the taskq thread.
The taskq thread (spl_cache_grow_work()) does:
1. allocate new slab and add to list
2. wake_up_all(skc_waitq)
3. clear_bit(KMC_BIT_GROWING)
Therefore, the waiting thread can wake up before GROWING has been
cleared. It will see that the growing has not yet completed, and go
back to sleep until it hits the 100ms timeout.
This can have an extreme performance impact on workloads that alloc/free
more than fits in the (statically-sized) magazines. These workloads
allocate and free slabs with high frequency.
The problem can be observed with `funclatency spl_cache_grow`, which on
some workloads shows that 99.5% of the time it takes <64us to allocate
slabs, but we spend ~70% of our time in outliers, waiting for the 100ms
timeout.
The fix is to do `clear_bit(KMC_BIT_GROWING)` before
`wake_up_all(skc_waitq)`.
A future investigation should evaluate if we still actually need to
taskq_dispatch() at all, and if so on which kernel versions.

*** 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.

Closes#9566
This change modifies some of the infrastructure for enabling the use of
the DTRACE_PROBE* macros, such that we can use tehm in the "spl" module.
Currently, when the DTRACE_PROBE* macros are used, they get expanded to
create new functions, and these dynamically generated functions become
part of the "zfs" module.
Since the "spl" module does not depend on the "zfs" module, the use of
DTRACE_PROBE* in the "spl" module would result in undefined symbols
being used in the "spl" module. Specifically, DTRACE_PROBE* would turn
into a function call, and the function being called would be a symbol
only contained in the "zfs" module; which results in a linker and/or
runtime error.
Thus, this change adds the necessary logic to the "spl" module, to
mirror the tracing functionality available to the "zfs" module. After
this change, we'll have a "trace_zfs.h" header file which defines the
probes available only to the "zfs" module, and a "trace_spl.h" header
file which defines the probes available only to the "spl" module.

Contrary to initial testing we cannot rely on these kernels to
invalidate the per-cpu FPU state and restore the FPU registers.
Nor can we guarantee that the kernel won't modify the FPU state
which we saved in the task struck.
Therefore, the kfpu_begin() and kfpu_end() functions have been
updated to save and restore the FPU state using our own dedicated
per-cpu FPU state variables.
This has the additional advantage of allowing us to use the FPU
again in user threads. So we remove the code which was added to
use task queues to ensure some functions ran in kernel threads.

Issue #9346Closes#9403
Currently, for certain sizes and classes of allocations we use
SPL caches that are backed by caches in the Linux Slab allocator
to reduce fragmentation and increase utilization of memory. The
way things are implemented for these caches as of now though is
that we don't keep any statistics of the allocations that we
make from these caches.
This patch enables the tracking of allocated objects in those
SPL caches by making the trade-off of grabbing the cache lock
at every object allocation and free to update the respective
counter.
Additionally, this patch makes those caches visible in the
/proc/spl/kmem/slab special file.
As a side note, enabling the specific counter for those caches
enables SDB to create a more user-friendly interface than
/proc/spl/kmem/slab that can also cross-reference data from
slabinfo. Here is for example the output of one of those
caches in SDB that outputs the name of the underlying Linux
cache, the memory of SPL objects allocated in that cache,
and the percentage of those objects compared to all the
objects in it:
```
> spl_kmem_caches | filter obj.skc_name == "zio_buf_512" | pp
name ... source total_memory util
----------- ... ----------------- ------------ ----
zio_buf_512 ... kmalloc-512[SLUB] 16.9MB 8

In the FreeBSD kernel the strdup signature is:

It's unfortunate that the developers have chosen to change
the signature of libc functions - but it's what I have to
