Brian Behlendorf 31f2b5abdf Remove TSD zfs_fsyncer_key
It's my understanding that the zfs_fsyncer_key TSD was added as
a performance omtimization to reduce contention on the zl_lock
from zil_commit().  This issue manifested itself as very long
(100+ms) fsync() system call times for fsync() heavy workloads.

However, under Linux I'm not seeing the same contention that
was originally described.  Therefore, I'm removing this code
in order to ween ourselves off any dependence on TSD.  If the
original performance issue reappears on Linux we can revisit
fixing it without resorting to TSD.

This just leaves one small ZFS TSD consumer.  If it can be
cleanly removed from the code we'll be able to shed the SPL
TSD implementation entirely.

Jorgen Lundman 6c2856726f Fix using zvol as slog device
During the original ZoL port the vdev_uses_zvols() function was
disabled until it could be properly implemented.  This prevented
a zpool from use a zvol for its slog device.

This patch implements that missing functionality by adding a
zvol_is_zvol() function to zvol.c.  Given the full path to a
device it will lookup the device and verify its major number
against the registered zvol major number for the system.  If
they match we know the device is a zvol.

Brian Behlendorf 8780c53961 Update SAs when an inode is dirtied
Revert the portion of commit d3aa3ea which always resulted in the
SAs being update when an mmap()'ed file was closed.  That change
accidentally resulted in unexpected ctime updates which upset tools
like git.  That was always a horrible hack and I'm happy it will
never make it in to a tagged release.

The right fix is something I initially resisted doing because I
was worried about the additional overhead.  However, in hindsight
the overhead isn't as bad as I feared.

This patch implemented the sops->dirty_inode() callback which is
unsurprisingly called when an inode is dirtied.  We leverage this
callback to keep the znode SAs strictly in sync with the inode.

However, for now we're going to go slowly to avoid introducing
any new unexpected issues by only updating the atime, mtime, and
ctime.  This will cover the callpath of most concern to us.

Brian Behlendorf 2ae1031962 Linux 3.7 compat, schedule_delayed_work()
Linux kernel commit d8e794d accidentally broke the delayed work
APIs for non-GPL callers.   While the APIs to schedule a delayed
work item are still available to all callers, it is no longer
possible to initialize the delayed work item.

I'm cautiously optimistic we could get the delayed_work_timer_fn
exported for all callers in the upstream kernel.  But frankly
the compatibility code to use this kernel interface has always
been problematic.

Therefore, this patch abandons direct use the of the Linux
kernel interface in favor of the new delayed taskq interface.
It provides roughly the same functionality as delayed work queues
but it's a stable interface under our control.

Brian Behlendorf e89260a1c8 Directory xattr znodes hold a reference on their parent
Unlike normal file or directory znodes, an xattr znode is
guaranteed to only have a single parent.  Therefore, we can
take a refernce on that parent if it is provided at create
time and cache it.  Additionally, we take care to cache it
on any subsequent zfs_zaccess() where the parent is provided
as an optimization.

This allows us to avoid needing to do a zfs_zget() when
setting up the SELinux security xattr in the create path.
This is critical because a hash lookup on the directory
will deadlock since it is locked.

The zpl_xattr_security_init() call has also been moved up
to the zpl layer to ensure TXs to create the required
xattrs are performed after the create TX.  Otherwise we
run the risk of deadlocking on the open create TX.

Ideally the security xattr should be fully constructed
before the new inode is unlocked.  However, doing so would
require far more extensive changes to ZFS.

This change may also have the benefitial side effect of
ensuring xattr directory znodes are evicted from the cache
before normal file or directory znodes due to the extra
reference.

Increasing this limit costs us 6144 bytes of memory per mounted

* Allows for up to 256-way concurreny when performing lookups

* Minimizes the likelyhood of encountering the deadlock

Brian Behlendorf 2404b01499 Improve AF hard disk detection
Use the bdev_physical_block_size() interface to determine the
minimize write size which can be issued without incurring a
read-modify-write operation.  This is used to set the ashift
correctly to prevent a performance penalty when using AF hard
disks.

Unfortunately, this interface isn't entirely reliable because
it's not uncommon for disks to misreport this value.  For this
reason you may still need to manually set your ashift with:

  zpool create -o ashift=12 ...

The solution to this in the upstream Illumos source was to add
a white list of known offending drives.  Maintaining such a list
will be a burden, but it still may be worth doing if we can
detect a large number of these drives.  This should be considered
as future work.

Refererces to Illumos issue:
      https://www.illumos.org/issues/2671

This patch has been slightly modified from the upstream Illumos
version.  In the upstream implementation a warning message is
logged to the console.  To prevent pointless console noise this
notification is now posted as a "ereport.fs.zfs.vdev.bad_ashift"
event.

The event indicates a non-optimial (but entirely safe) ashift
value was used to create the pool.  Depending on your workload
this may impact pool performance.  Unfortunately, the only way
to correct the issue is to recreate the pool with a new ashift.

NOTE: The unrelated fix to the comment in zpool_main.c appears
in the upstream commit and was preserved for consistnecy.

Brian Behlendorf 9dcb971983 Log I/Os longer than zio_delay_max (30s default)
There have been reports of ZFS deadlocking due to what appears to
be a lost IO.  This patch addes some debugging to determine the
exact state of the IO which neither 1) completed, 2) failed, or
3) timed out after zio_delay_max (30) seconds.

This information will be logged using the ZFS FMA infrastructure
as a 'delay' event and posted to the internal zevent log.  By
default the last 64 events will be kept in the log but the limit
is configurable via the zfs_zevent_len_max module option.

To dump the contents of the log use the 'zpool events -v' command
and look for the resource.fs.zfs.delay event.  It will include
various information about the pool, vdev, and zio which may shed
some light on the issue.

In the context of this change the 120 second kernel blocked thread
watchdog has been disabled for synchronous IOs.

Brian Behlendorf e8fd45a0f9 Add ddt_object_count() error handling
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
caught and returned to the caller.  This allows a pool which has
be damaged in this way to be safely rewound for import.

Brian Behlendorf eac4720465 Allow 'zpool replace' to use short device names
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.

These changes are the logical conclusion of the previos work to
adjust the 'zpool import' search behavior, see commit 44867b6a.

Etienne Dechamps 920dd524fb Add FASTWRITE algorithm for synchronous writes.
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.

Richard Yao 7df05a4266 Fix zfs_write_limit_max integer size mismatch on 32-bit systems
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.

Etienne Dechamps 0aebd4f9e3 Create threads in detached state in userspace.
Currently, thread_create(), when called in userspace, creates a
joinable (i.e. not detached thread). This is the pthread default.

Unfortunately, this does not reproduce kthreads behavior (kthreads
are always detached). In addition, this contradicts the original
Solaris code which creates userspace threads in detached mode.

These joinable threads are never joined, which leads to a leakage of
pthread thread objects ("zombie threads"). This in turn results in
excessive ressource consumption, and possible ressource exhaustion in
extreme cases (e.g. long ztest runs).

This patch fixes the issue by creating userspace threads in detached
mode. The only exception is ztest worker threads which are meant to be
joinable.

Brian Behlendorf cda4db408c Revert "Improve AF hard disk detection"
This reverts commit 395350c85d which
accidentally introduced issue #955.

Pools using AF drives which were originally created with a sector
size of 512 bytes will now be correctly detected to have physical
sector size of 4096.  This is desirable for a new pool, however for
an existing pool abruptly changing the sector size causes problems.

For this reason, this change is being reverted until the additional
logic can be added to detect the existing pool case.  Existing
pools must use the ashift size stored in the label regardless of
what the disk reports.  This is critical for compatibility.

Brian Behlendorf 395350c85d Improve AF hard disk detection
Use the bdev_physical_block_size() interface to determine the
minimize write size which can be issued without incurring a
read-modify-write operation.  This is used to set the ashift
correctly to prevent a performance penalty when using AF hard
disks.

Unfortunately, this interface isn't entirely reliable because
it's not uncommon for disks to misreport this value.  For this
reason you may still need to manually set your ashift with:

  zpool create -o ashift=12 ...

The solution to this in the upstream Illumos source was to add
a while list of known offending drives.  Maintaining such a list
will be a burden, but it still may be worth doing if we can
detect a large number of these drives.  This should be considered
as future work.

Richard Yao b8d06fca08 Switch KM_SLEEP to KM_PUSHPAGE
Differences between how paging is done on Solaris and Linux can cause
deadlocks if KM_SLEEP is used in any the following contexts.

  * The txg_sync thread
  * The zvol write/discard threads
  * The zpl_putpage() VFS callback

This is because KM_SLEEP will allow for direct reclaim which may result
in the VM calling back in to the filesystem or block layer to write out
pages.  If a lock is held over this operation the potential exists to
deadlock the system.  To ensure forward progress all memory allocations
in these contexts must us KM_PUSHPAGE which disables performing any I/O
to accomplish the memory allocation.

Previously, this behavior was acheived by setting PF_MEMALLOC on the
thread.  However, that resulted in unexpected side effects such as the
exhaustion of pages in ZONE_DMA.  This approach touchs more of the zfs
code, but it is more consistent with the right way to handle these cases
under Linux.

This is patch lays the ground work for being able to safely revert the
following commits which used PF_MEMALLOC:

  21ade34 Disable direct reclaim for z_wr_* threads
  cfc9a5c Fix zpl_writepage() deadlock
  eec8164 Fix ASSERTION(!dsl_pool_sync_context(tx->tx_pool))

Brian Behlendorf 86dd0fd922 Pre-allocate vdev I/O buffers
The vdev queue layer may require a small number of buffers
when attempting to create aggregate I/O requests.  Rather than
attempting to allocate them from the global zio buffers, which
is slow under memory pressure, it makes sense to pre-allocate
them because...

1) These buffers are short lived.  They are only required for
the life of a single I/O at which point they can be used by
the next I/O.

2) The maximum number of concurrent buffers needed by a vdev is
small.  It's roughly limited by the zfs_vdev_max_pending tunable
which defaults to 10.

By keeping a small list of these buffer per-vdev we can ensure
one is always available when we need it.  This significantly
reduces contention on the vq->vq_lock, because we no longer
need to perform a slow allocation under this lock.  This is
particularly important when memory is already low on the system.

It would probably be wise to extend the use of these buffers beyond
aggregate I/O and in to the raidz implementation.  The inability
to quickly allocate buffer for the parity stripes could result in
similiar problems.

Richard Yao 44f21da41c Revert Disable direct reclaim for z_wr_* threads
This commit used PF_MEMALLOC to prevent a memory reclaim deadlock.
However, commit 49be0ccf1f eliminated
the invocation of __cv_init(), which was the cause of the deadlock.
PF_MEMALLOC has the side effect of permitting pages from ZONE_DMA
to be allocated.  The use of PF_MEMALLOC was found to cause stability
problems when doing swap on zvols. Since this technique is known to
cause problems and no longer fixes anything, we revert it.

Etienne Dechamps ee5fd0bb80 Set zvol discard_granularity to the volblocksize.
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.

Richard Yao 0a6b03d3b8 Fix build failures on PaX/GRSecurity patched kernels
Gentoo Hardened kernels include the PaX/GRSecurity patches. They use a
dialect of C that relies on a GCC plugin. In particular, struct
file_operations has been marked do_const in the PaX/GRSecurity dialect,
which causes GCC to consider all instances of it as const. This caused
failures in the autotools checks and the ZFS source code.

To address this, we modify the autotools checks to take into account
differences between the PaX C dialect and the regular C dialect. We also
modify struct zfs_acl's z_ops member to be a pointer to a function
pointer table. Lastly, we modify zpl_put_link() to address a PaX change
to the function prototype of nd_get_link().  This avoids compiler errors
in the PaX/GRSecurity dialect.

Note that the change in zpl_put_link() causes a warning that becomes a
build failure when debugging is enabled. Fixing that warning requires
ryao/spl@5ca50ef459.

Etienne Dechamps b5a28807cd Move partition scanning from userspace to module.
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.
