Brian Behlendorf 7d90f569b3 Check all vdev labels in 'zpool import'
When using 'zpool import' to scan for available pools prefer vdev names
which reference vdevs with more valid labels.  There should be two labels
at the start of the device and two labels at the end of the device.  If
labels are missing then the device has been damaged or is in some other
way incomplete.  Preferring names with fully intact labels helps weed out
bad paths and improves the likelihood of being able to import the pool.

This behavior only applies when scanning /dev/ for valid pools.  If a
cache file exists the pools described by the cache file will be used.

Chunwei Chen 53698a453d Read spl_hostid module parameter before gethostid()
If spl_hostid is set via module parameter, it's likely different from
gethostid(). Therefore, the userspace tool should read it first before
falling back to gethostid().

For compatibility with the fastpath code the zio_done() function

not require DVAs to be allocated the associated vdevs will not

Chris Dunlap 8c7aa0cfc4 Replace zpool_events_next() "block" parm w/ "flags"
zpool_events_next() can be called in blocking mode by specifying a
non-zero value for the "block" parameter.  However, the design of
the ZFS Event Daemon (zed) requires additional functionality from
zpool_events_next().  Instead of adding additional arguments to the
function, it makes more sense to use flags that can be bitwise-or'd
together.

This commit replaces the zpool_events_next() int "block" parameter with
an unsigned bitwise "flags" parameter.  It also defines ZEVENT_NONE
to specify the default behavior.  Since non-blocking mode can be
specified with the existing ZEVENT_NONBLOCK flag, the default behavior
becomes blocking mode.  This, in effect, inverts the previous use
of the "block" parameter.  Existing callers of zpool_events_next()
have been modified to check for the ZEVENT_NONBLOCK flag.

Brian Behlendorf ffe9d38275 Add generic errata infrastructure
From time to time it may be necessary to inform the pool administrator
about an errata which impacts their pool.  These errata will by shown
to the administrator through the 'zpool status' and 'zpool import'
output as appropriate.  The errata must clearly describe the issue
detected, how the pool is impacted, and what action should be taken
to resolve the situation.  Additional information for each errata will
be provided at http://zfsonlinux.org/msg/ZFS-8000-ER.

To accomplish the above this patch adds the required infrastructure to
allow the kernel modules to notify the utilities that an errata has
been detected.  This is done through the ZPOOL_CONFIG_ERRATA uint64_t
which has been added to the pool configuration nvlist.

To add a new errata the following changes must be made:

* A new errata identifier must be assigned by adding a new enum value
  to the zpool_errata_t type.  New enums must be added to the end to
  preserve the existing ordering.

* Code must be added to detect the issue.  This does not strictly
  need to be done at pool import time but doing so will make the
  errata visible in 'zpool import' as well as 'zpool status'.  Once
  detected the spa->spa_errata member should be set to the new enum.

* If possible code should be added to clear the spa->spa_errata member
  once the errata has been resolved.

* The show_import() and status_callback() functions must be updated
  to include an informational message describing the errata.  This
  should include an action message describing what an administrator
  should do to address the errata.

* The documentation at http://zfsonlinux.org/msg/ZFS-8000-ER must be
  updated to describe the errata.  This space can be used to provide
  as much additional information as needed to fully describe the errata.
  A link to this documentation will be automatically generated in the
  output of 'zpool import' and 'zpool status'.

Porting notes:

1. 13fe019870 introduced a merge conflict
   in dsl_dataset_user_release_tmp where some variables were moved
   outside of the preprocessor directive.

2. dea9dfefdd747534b3846845629d2200f0616dad made the previous merge
   conflict worse by switching KM_SLEEP to KM_PUSHPAGE. This is notable
   because this commit refactors the code, adding a new KM_SLEEP
   allocation. It is not clear to me whether this should be converted
   to KM_PUSHPAGE.

3. We had a merge conflict in libzfs_sendrecv.c because of copyright
   notices.

4. Several small C99 compatibility fixed were made.

Brian Behlendorf 11cb9d773f Increase default udev wait time
When creating a new pool, or adding/replacing a disk in an existing
pool, partition tables will be automatically created on the devices.
Under normal circumstances it will take less than a second for udev
to create the expected device files under /dev/.  However, it has
been observed that if the system is doing heavy IO concurrently udev
may take far longer.  If you also throw in some cheap dodgy hardware
it may take even longer.

To prevent zpool commands from failing due to this the default wait
time for udev is being increased to 30 seconds.  This will have no
impact on normal usage, the increase timeout should only be noticed
if your udev rules are incorrectly configured.

Porting notes:

WARNING: This patch changes the user/kernel ABI.  That means that
the zfs/zpool utilities built from master are NOT compatible with
the 0.6.2 kernel modules.  Ensure you load the matching kernel
modules from master after updating the utilities.  Otherwise the
zfs/zpool commands will be unable to interact with your pool and
you will see errors similar to the following:

  $ zpool list
  failed to read pool configuration: bad address
  no pools available

  $ zfs list
  no datasets available

Add zvol minor device creation to the new zfs_snapshot_nvl function.

Remove the logging of the "release" operation in
dsl_dataset_user_release_sync().  The logging caused a null dereference
because ds->ds_dir is zeroed in dsl_dataset_destroy_sync() and the
logging functions try to get the ds name via the dsl_dataset_name()
function. I've got no idea why this particular code would have worked
in Illumos.  This code has subsequently been completely reworked in
Illumos commit 3b2aab1 (3464 zfs synctask code needs restructuring).

Squash some "may be used uninitialized" warning/erorrs.

Fix some printf format warnings for %lld and %llu.

Apply a few spa_writeable() changes that were made to Illumos in
illumos/illumos-gate.git@cd1c8b8 as part of the 3112, 3113, 3114 and
3115 fixes.

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.

Brian Behlendorf 2cf7f52bc4 Linux compat 2.6.39: mount_nodev()
The .get_sb callback has been replaced by a .mount callback
in the file_system_type structure.  When using the new
interface the caller must now use the mount_nodev() helper.

Unfortunately, the new interface no longer passes the vfsmount
down to the zfs layers.  This poses a problem for the existing
implementation because we currently save this pointer in the
super block for latter use.  It provides our only entry point
in to the namespace layer for manipulating certain mount options.

This needed to be done originally to allow commands like
'zfs set atime=off tank' to work properly.  It also allowed me
to keep more of the original Solaris code unmodified.  Under
Solaris there is a 1-to-1 mapping between a mount point and a
file system so this is a fairly natural thing to do.  However,
under Linux they many be multiple entries in the namespace
which reference the same filesystem.  Thus keeping a back
reference from the filesystem to the namespace is complicated.

Rather than introduce some ugly hack to get the vfsmount and
continue as before.  I'm leveraging this API change to update
the ZFS code to do things in a more natural way for Linux.
This has the upside that is resolves the compatibility issue
for the long term and fixes several other minor bugs which
have been reported.

This commit updates the code to remove this vfsmount back
reference entirely.  All modifications to filesystem mount
options are now passed in to the kernel via a '-o remount'.
This is the expected Linux mechanism and allows the namespace
to properly handle any options which apply to it before passing
them on to the file system itself.

Aside from fixing the compatibility issue, removing the
vfsmount has had the benefit of simplifying the code.  This
change which fairly involved has turned out nicely.

Brian Behlendorf 9ac97c2a93 Print mount/umount errors
Because we are dependent of the system mount/umount utilities to
ensure correct mtab locking, we should not suppress their error
output.  During a successful mount/umount they will be silent,
but during a failure the error message they print is the only sure
way to know why a mount failed.  This is because the (u)mount(8)
return code does not contain the result of the system call issued.
The only way to clearly idenify why thing failed is to rely on
the error message printed by the tool.

Longer term once libmount is available we can issue the mount/umount
system calls within the tool and still be ensured correct mtab locking.

Brian Behlendorf feb46b92a7 Open up libzfs_run_process/libzfs_load_module
Recently helper functions were added to libzfs_util to load a kernel
module or execute a process.  Initially this functionality was limited
to libzfs but it has become clear there will be other consumers.  This
change opens up the interface so it may be used where appropriate.

Ned Bass 79e7242a91 Add helper functions for manipulating device names
This change adds two helper functions for working with vdev names and paths.
zfs_resolve_shortname() resolves a shorthand vdev name to an absolute path
of a file in /dev, /dev/disk/by-id, /dev/disk/by-label, /dev/disk/by-path,
/dev/disk/by-uuid, /dev/disk/zpool.  This was previously done only in the
function is_shorthand_path(), but we need a general helper function to
implement shorthand names for additional zpool subcommands like remove.
is_shorthand_path() is accordingly updated to call the helper function.

There is a minor change in the way zfs_resolve_shortname() tests if a file
exists.  is_shorthand_path() effectively used open() and stat64() to test for
file existence, since its scope includes testing if a device is a whole disk
and collecting file status information.  zfs_resolve_shortname(), on the other
hand, only uses access() to test for existence and leaves it to the caller to
perform any additional file operations.  This seemed like the most general and
lightweight approach, and still preserves the semantics of is_shorthand_path().

zfs_append_partition() appends a partition suffix to a device path.  This
should be used to generate the name of a whole disk as it is stored in the vdev
label. The user-visible names of whole disks do not contain the partition
information, while the name in the vdev label does.   The code was lifted from
the function make_disks(), which now just calls the helper function.  Again,
having a helper function to do this supports general handling of shorthand
names in the user interface.

Brian Behlendorf 6283f55ea1 Support custom build directories and move includes
One of the neat tricks an autoconf style project is capable of
is allow configurion/building in a directory other than the
source directory.  The major advantage to this is that you can
build the project various different ways while making changes
in a single source tree.

For example, this project is designed to work on various different
Linux distributions each of which work slightly differently.  This
means that changes need to verified on each of those supported
distributions perferably before the change is committed to the
public git repo.

Using nfs and custom build directories makes this much easier.
I now have a single source tree in nfs mounted on several different
systems each running a supported distribution.  When I make a
change to the source base I suspect may break things I can
concurrently build from the same source on all the systems each
in their own subdirectory.

wget -c http://github.com/downloads/behlendorf/zfs/zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz
tar -xzf zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd zfs-x-y-z

------------------------- run concurrently ----------------------
<ubuntu system>  <fedora system>  <debian system>  <rhel6 system>
mkdir ubuntu     mkdir fedora     mkdir debian     mkdir rhel6
cd ubuntu        cd fedora        cd debian        cd rhel6
../configure     ../configure     ../configure     ../configure
make             make             make             make
make check       make check       make check       make check

This change also moves many of the include headers from individual
incude/sys directories under the modules directory in to a single
top level include directory.  This has the advantage of making
the build rules cleaner and logically it makes a bit more sense.
