The page fault occurs because vgonel() will call VOP_CLOSE() for active

This is caused by a race condition that can occur when allocating a new
vnode and adding that vnode to the vfs hash. If the newly created vnode
loses the race when being inserted into the vfs hash, it will not be
recycled as its usecount is greater than zero, hitting the above
assertion.
Fix this by dropping the assertion.

We've had cases where we trigger an OOM despite having memory freely
available on the system. For example, here, we had about 21GB free:
kernel: Node 0 Normal: 2418758*4kB (UME) 1549533*8kB (UE) 0*16kB
0*32kB 0*64kB 0*128kB 0*256kB 0*512kB 0*1024kB 0*2048kB 0*4096kB =
22071296kB
The problem being, all the memory is in 4K and 8K contiguous regions,
but the allocation request was for a 16K contiguous region:
kernel: SafeExecutors-4 invoked oom-killer:
gfp_mask=0x42dc0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_NOWARN|__GFP_COMP|__GFP_ZERO),
order=2, oom_score_adj=0
The offending allocation came from this call trace:

The problem is, for each ioctl that ZFS makes, it has to allocate a
zfs_cmd_t structure, which is 13744 bytes in size (on my system):
sdb> sizeof zfs_cmd
(size_t)13744
This size, coupled with the fact that we currently allocate it with
kmem_zalloc, means we need a 16K contiguous region of memory to satisfy
the request.
The solution taken by this change, is to use "vmem" instead of "kmem" to
do the allocation, such that we don't necessarily need a contiguous 16K
memory region to satisfy the allocation.
Arguably, a better solution would be not to require such a large
allocation to begin with (e.g. reduce the size of the zfs_cmd_t
structure), but that'd be a much larger change than this "one liner".
Thus, I've opted for this approach for now; we can always circle back
and attempt to reduce the size of the structure in the future.

I recently gained the ability to run Clang's static analyzer on the
linux kernel modules via a few hacks. This extended coverage to code
that was previously missed since Clang's static analyzer only looked at
code that we built in userspace. Running it against the Linux kernel
modules built from my local branch produced a total of 72 reports
against my local branch. Of those, 50 were reports of logic errors and
22 were reports of dead code. Since we already had cleaned up all of
the previous dead code reports, I felt it would be a good next step to
clean up these dead code reports. Clang did a further breakdown of the
dead code reports into:
Dead assignment 15
Dead increment 2
Dead nested assignment 5
The benefit of cleaning these up, especially in the case of dead nested
assignment, is that they can expose places where our error handling is
incorrect. A number of them were fairly straight forward. However
several were not:
In vdev_disk_physio_completion(), not only were we not using the return
value from the static function vdev_disk_dio_put(), but nothing used it,
so I changed it to return void and removed the existing (void) cast in
the other area where we call it in addition to no longer storing it to a
stack value.
In FSE_createDTable(), the function is dead code. Its helper function
FSE_freeDTable() is also dead code, as are the CPP definitions in
`module/zstd/include/zstd_compat_wrapper.h`. We just delete it all.
In zfs_zevent_wait(), we have an optimization opportunity. cv_wait_sig()
returns 0 if there are waiting signals and 1 if there are none. The
Linux SPL version literally returns `signal_pending(current) ? 0 : 1)`
and FreeBSD implements the same semantics, we can just do
`!cv_wait_sig()` in place of `signal_pending(current)` to avoid
unnecessarily calling it again.
zfs_setattr() on FreeBSD version did not have error handling issue
because the code was removed entirely from FreeBSD version. The error is
from updating the attribute directory's files. After some thought, I
decided to propapage errors on it to userspace.
In zfs_secpolicy_tmp_snapshot(), we ignore a lack of permission from the
first check in favor of checking three other permissions. I assume this
is intentional.
In zfs_create_fs(), the return value of zap_update() was not checked
despite setting an important version number. I see no backward
compatibility reason to permit failures, so we add an assertion to catch
failures. Interestingly, Linux is still using ASSERT(error == 0) from
OpenSolaris while FreeBSD has switched to the improved ASSERT0(error)
from illumos, although illumos has yet to adopt it here. ASSERT(error ==
0) was used on Linux while ASSERT0(error) was used on FreeBSD since the
entire file needs conversion and that should be the subject of
another patch.
dnode_move()'s issue was caused by us not having implemented
POINTER_IS_VALID() on Linux. We have a stub in
`include/os/linux/spl/sys/kmem_cache.h` for it, when it really should be
in `include/os/linux/spl/sys/kmem.h` to be consistent with
Illumos/OpenSolaris. FreeBSD put both `POINTER_IS_VALID()` and
`POINTER_INVALIDATE()` in `include/os/freebsd/spl/sys/kmem.h`, so we
copy what it did.
Whenever a report was in platform-specific code, I checked the FreeBSD
version to see if it also applied to FreeBSD, but it was only relevant a
few times.
Lastly, the patch that enabled Clang's static analyzer to be run on the
Linux kernel modules needs more work before it can be put into a PR. I
plan to do that in the future as part of the on-going static analysis
work that I am doing.

The Linux 5.16.14 kernel's coccicheck caught this. The semantic
patch that caught it was:
./scripts/coccinelle/misc/flexible_array.cocci
However, unlike the cases where the GNU zero length array extension had
been used, coccicheck would not suggest patches for the older style
single member arrays. That was good because blindly changing them would
break size calculations in most cases.
Therefore, this required care to make sure that we did not break size
calculations. In the case of `indirect_split_t`, we use
`offsetof(indirect_split_t, is_child[is->is_children])` to calculate
size. This might be subtly wrong according to an old mailing list
thread:
https://inbox.sourceware.org/gcc-prs/20021226123454.27019.qmail@sources.redhat.com/T/
That is because the C99 specification should consider the flexible array
members to start at the end of a structure, but compilers prefer to put
padding at the end. A suggestion was made to allow compilers to allocate
padding after the VLA like compilers already did:
http://std.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC22/WG14/www/docs/n983.htm
However, upon thinking about it, whether or not we allocate end of
structure padding does not matter, so using offsetof() to calculate the
size of the structure is fine, so long as we do not mix it with sizeof()
on structures with no array members.
In the case that we mix them and padding causes offsetof(struct_t,
vla_member[0]) to differ from sizeof(struct_t), we would be doing unsafe
operations if we underallocate via `offsetof()` and then overcopy via
sizeof().

Previously the primarycache property was handled only in the dbuf
layer. Since the speculative prefetcher is implemented in the ARC,
it had to be disabled for uncacheable buffers.
This change gives the ARC knowledge about uncacheable buffers
via arc_read() and arc_write(). So when remove_reference() drops
the last reference on the ARC header, it can either immediately destroy
it, or if it is marked as prefetch, put it into a new arc_uncached state.
That state is scanned every second, evicting stale buffers that were
not demand read.
This change also tracks dbufs that were read from the beginning,
but not to the end. It is assumed that such buffers may receive further
reads, and so they are stored in dbuf cache. If a following
reads reaches the end of the buffer, it is immediately evicted.
Otherwise it will follow regular dbuf cache eviction. Since the dbuf
layer does not know actual file sizes, this logic is not applied to
the final buffer of a dnode.
Since uncacheable buffers should no longer stay in the ARC for long,
this patch also tries to optimize I/O by allocating ARC physical
buffers as linear to allow buffer sharing.

found one that matched the description of the first one:
V593 Consider reviewing the expression of the 'A = B != C' kind. The
expression is calculated as following: 'A = (B != C)'. zfs_vfsops.c 498
The consequence of this is that the error value is replaced with `1`
when there is an error. When there is no error, 0 is correctly passed.
This is a very minor issue that is unlikely to cause any real problems.
The incorrect error code would either be returned to the mount command
on a failure or any of `zfs receive`, `zfs recv`, `zfs rollback` or `zfs

`snprintf()` is meant to protect against buffer overflows, but operating
on the buffer using its return value, possibly by calling it again, can
cause a buffer overflow, because it will return how many characters it
would have written if it had enough space even when it did not. In a
number of places, we repeatedly call snprintf() by successively
incrementing a buffer offset and decrementing a buffer length, by its
return value. This is a potentially unsafe usage of `snprintf()`
whenever the buffer length is reached. CodeQL complained about this.
To fix this, we introduce `kmem_scnprintf()`, which will return 0 when
the buffer is zero or the number of written characters, minus 1 to
exclude the NULL character, when the buffer was too small. In all other
cases, it behaves like snprintf(). The name is inspired by the Linux and
XNU kernels' `scnprintf()`. The implementation was written before I
thought to look at `scnprintf()` and had a good name for it, but it
turned out to have identical semantics to the Linux kernel version.
That lead to the name, `kmem_scnprintf()`.
CodeQL only catches this issue in loops, so repeated use of snprintf()
outside of a loop was not caught. As a result, a thorough audit of the
codebase was done to examine all instances of `snprintf()` usage for
potential problems and a few were caught. Fixes for them are included in
this patch.
Unfortunately, ZED is one of the places where `snprintf()` is
potentially used incorrectly. Since using `kmem_scnprintf()` in it would
require changing how it is linked, we modify its usage to make it safe,
no matter what buffer length is used. In addition, there was a bug in
the use of the return value where the NULL format character was not
being written by pwrite(). That has been fixed.

Implement support for Linux's RENAME_* flags (for renameat2). Aside from
being quite useful for userspace (providing race-free ways to exchange
paths and implement mv --no-clobber), they are used by overlayfs and are
thus required in order to use overlayfs-on-ZFS.
In order for us to represent the new renameat2(2) flags in the ZIL, we
create two new transaction types for the two flags which need
transactional-level support (RENAME_EXCHANGE and RENAME_WHITEOUT).
RENAME_NOREPLACE does not need any ZIL support because we know that if
the operation succeeded before creating the ZIL entry, there was no file
to be clobbered and thus it can be treated as a regular TX_RENAME.

These were categorized as the following:
* Dead assignment 23
* Dead increment 4
* Dead initialization 6
* Dead nested assignment 18
Most of these are harmless, but since actual issues can hide among them,
we correct them.
That said, there were a few return values that were being ignored that
appeared to merit some correction:
* `destroy_callback()` in `cmd/zfs/zfs_main.c` ignored the error from
`destroy_batched()`. We handle it by returning -1 if there is an
error.
* `zfs_do_upgrade()` in `cmd/zfs/zfs_main.c` ignored the error from
`zfs_for_each()`. We handle it by doing a binary OR of the error
value from the subsequent `zfs_for_each()` call to the existing
value. This is how errors are mostly handled inside `zfs_for_each()`.
The error value here is passed to exit from the zfs command, so doing
a binary or on it is better than what we did previously.
* `get_zap_prop()` in `module/zfs/zcp_get.c` ignored the error from
`dsl_prop_get_ds()` when the property is not of type string. We
return an error when it does. There is a small concern that the
`zfs_get_temporary_prop()` call would handle things, but in the case
that it does not, we would be pushing an uninitialized numval onto
the lua stack. It is expected that `dsl_prop_get_ds()` will succeed
anytime that `zfs_get_temporary_prop()` does, so that not giving it a
chance to fix things is not a problem.
* `draid_merge_impl()` in `tests/zfs-tests/cmd/draid.c` used
`nvlist_add_nvlist()` twice in ways in which errors are expected to
be impossible, so we switch to `fnvlist_add_nvlist()`.
A few notable ones did not merit use of the return value, so we
suppressed it with `(void)`:
* `write_free_diffs()` in `lib/libzfs/libzfs_diff.c` ignored the error
value from `describe_free()`. A look through the commit history
revealed that this was intentional.
* `arc_evict_hdr()` in `module/zfs/arc.c` did not need to use the
returned handle from `arc_hdr_realloc()` because it is already
referenced in lists.
* `spa_vdev_detach()` in `module/zfs/spa.c` has a comment explicitly
saying not to use the error from `vdev_label_init()` because whatever
causes the error could be the reason why a detach is being done.
Unfortunately, I am not presently able to analyze the kernel modules
with Clang's static analyzer, so I could have missed some cases of this.
In cases where reports were present in code that is duplicated between
Linux and FreeBSD, I made a conscious effort to fix the FreeBSD version
too.
After this commit is merged, regressions like dee8934 should become
extremely obvious with Clang's static analyzer since a regression would
appear in the results as the only instance of unused code. That assumes
that Coverity does not catch the issue first.
My local branch with fixes from all of my outstanding non-draft pull

Closes#13986
Various module parameters such as `zfs_arc_max` were originally
`uint64_t` on OpenSolaris/Illumos, but were changed to `unsigned long`
for Linux compatibility because Linux's kernel default module parameter
implementation did not support 64-bit types on 32-bit platforms. This
caused problems when porting OpenZFS to Windows because its LLP64 memory
model made `unsigned long` a 32-bit type on 64-bit, which created the
undesireable situation that parameters that should accept 64-bit values
could not on 64-bit Windows.
Upon inspection, it turns out that the Linux kernel module parameter
interface is extensible, such that we are allowed to define our own
types. Rather than maintaining the original type change via hacks to to
continue shrinking module parameters on 32-bit Linux, we implement
support for 64-bit module parameters on Linux.
After doing a review of all 64-bit kernel parameters (found via the man
page and also proposed changes by Andrew Innes), the kernel module
parameters fell into a few groups:
Parameters that were originally 64-bit on Illumos:
* dbuf_cache_max_bytes
* dbuf_metadata_cache_max_bytes
* l2arc_feed_min_ms
* l2arc_feed_secs
* l2arc_headroom
* l2arc_headroom_boost
* l2arc_write_boost
* l2arc_write_max
* metaslab_aliquot
* metaslab_force_ganging
* zfetch_array_rd_sz
* zfs_arc_max
* zfs_arc_meta_limit
* zfs_arc_meta_min
* zfs_arc_min
* zfs_async_block_max_blocks
* zfs_condense_max_obsolete_bytes
* zfs_condense_min_mapping_bytes
* zfs_deadman_checktime_ms
* zfs_deadman_synctime_ms
* zfs_initialize_chunk_size
* zfs_initialize_value
* zfs_lua_max_instrlimit
* zfs_lua_max_memlimit
* zil_slog_bulk
Parameters that were originally 32-bit on Illumos:
* zfs_per_txg_dirty_frees_percent
Parameters that were originally `ssize_t` on Illumos:
* zfs_immediate_write_sz
Note that `ssize_t` is `int32_t` on 32-bit and `int64_t` on 64-bit. It
has been upgraded to 64-bit.
Parameters that were `long`/`unsigned long` because of Linux/FreeBSD
influence:
* l2arc_rebuild_blocks_min_l2size
* zfs_key_max_salt_uses
* zfs_max_log_walking
* zfs_max_logsm_summary_length
* zfs_metaslab_max_size_cache_sec
* zfs_min_metaslabs_to_flush
* zfs_multihost_interval
* zfs_unflushed_log_block_max
* zfs_unflushed_log_block_min
* zfs_unflushed_log_block_pct
* zfs_unflushed_max_mem_amt
* zfs_unflushed_max_mem_ppm
New parameters that do not exist in Illumos:
* l2arc_trim_ahead
* vdev_file_logical_ashift
* vdev_file_physical_ashift
* zfs_arc_dnode_limit
* zfs_arc_dnode_limit_percent
* zfs_arc_dnode_reduce_percent
* zfs_arc_meta_limit_percent
* zfs_arc_sys_free
* zfs_deadman_ziotime_ms
* zfs_delete_blocks
* zfs_history_output_max
* zfs_livelist_max_entries
* zfs_max_async_dedup_frees
* zfs_max_nvlist_src_size
* zfs_rebuild_max_segment
* zfs_rebuild_vdev_limit
* zfs_unflushed_log_txg_max
* zfs_vdev_max_auto_ashift
* zfs_vdev_min_auto_ashift
* zfs_vnops_read_chunk_size
* zvol_max_discard_blocks
Rather than clutter the lists with commentary, the module parameters
that need comments are repeated below.
A few parameters were defined in Linux/FreeBSD specific code, where the
use of ulong/long is not an issue for portability, so we leave them
alone:
* zfs_delete_blocks
* zfs_key_max_salt_uses
* zvol_max_discard_blocks
The documentation for a few parameters was found to be incorrect:
* zfs_deadman_checktime_ms - incorrectly documented as int
* zfs_delete_blocks - not documented as Linux only
* zfs_history_output_max - incorrectly documented as int
* zfs_vnops_read_chunk_size - incorrectly documented as long
* zvol_max_discard_blocks - incorrectly documented as ulong
The documentation for these has been fixed, alongside the changes to
document the switch to fixed width types.
In addition, several kernel module parameters were percentages or held
ashift values, so being 64-bit never made sense for them. They have been
downgraded to 32-bit:
* vdev_file_logical_ashift
* vdev_file_physical_ashift
* zfs_arc_dnode_limit_percent
* zfs_arc_dnode_reduce_percent
* zfs_arc_meta_limit_percent
* zfs_per_txg_dirty_frees_percent
* zfs_unflushed_log_block_pct
* zfs_vdev_max_auto_ashift
* zfs_vdev_min_auto_ashift
Of special note are `zfs_vdev_max_auto_ashift` and
`zfs_vdev_min_auto_ashift`, which were already defined as `uint64_t`,
and passed to the kernel as `ulong`. This is inherently buggy on big
endian 32-bit Linux, since the values would not be written to the
correct locations. 32-bit FreeBSD was unaffected because its sysctl code
correctly treated this as a `uint64_t`.
Lastly, a code comment suggests that `zfs_arc_sys_free` is
Linux-specific, but there is nothing to indicate to me that it is
Linux-specific. Nothing was done about that.

Coverity complains about possible bugs involving referencing NULL return
values and division by zero. The division by zero bugs require that a
block pointer be corrupt, either from in-memory corruption, or on-disk
corruption. The NULL return value complaints are only bugs if
assumptions that we make about the state of data structures are wrong.
Some seem impossible to be wrong and thus are false positives, while
others are hard to analyze.
Rather than dismiss these as false positives by assuming we know better,
we add defensive assertions to let us know when our assumptions are

Both Clang's Static Analyzer and Synopsys' Coverity would ignore
assertions. Following Clang's advice, we annotate our assertions:
https://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/annotations.html#custom_assertions
This makes both Clang's Static Analyzer and Coverity properly identify
assertions. This change reduced Clang's reported defects from 246 to
180. It also reduced the false positives reported by Coverityi by 10,
while enabling Coverity to find 9 more defects that previously were
false negatives.
A couple examples of this would be CID-1524417 and CID-1524423. After
submitting a build to coverity with the modified assertions, CID-1524417
disappeared while the report for CID-1524423 no longer claimed that the
assertion tripped.
Coincidentally, it turns out that it is possible to more accurately
annotate our headers than the Coverity modelling file permits in the
case of format strings. Since we can do that and this patch annotates
headers whenever `__coverity_panic__()` would have been used in the
model file, we drop all models that use `__coverity_panic__()` from the
model file.
Upon seeing the success in eliminating false positives involving
assertions, it occurred to me that we could also modify our headers to
eliminate coverity's false positives involving byte swaps. We now have
coverity specific byteswap macros, that do nothing, to disable
Coverity's false positives when we do byte swaps. This allowed us to
also drop the byteswap definitions from the model file.
Lastly, a model file update has been done beyond the mentioned
deletions:
* The definitions of `umem_alloc_aligned()`, `umem_alloc()` andi
`umem_zalloc()` were originally implemented in a way that was
intended to inform coverity that when KM_SLEEP has been passed these
functions, they do not return NULL. A small error in how this was
done was found, so we correct it.
* Definitions for umem_cache_alloc() and umem_cache_free() have been
added.
In practice, no false positives were avoided by making these changes,
but in the interest of correctness from future coverity builds, we make
them anyway.

In #13871, zfs_vdev_aggregation_limit_non_rotating and
zfs_vdev_aggregation_limit being signed was pointed out as a possible
reason not to eliminate an unnecessary MAX(unsigned, 0) since the
unsigned value was assigned from them.
There is no reason for these module parameters to be signed and upon
inspection, it was found that there are a number of other module
parameters that are signed, but should not be, so we make them unsigned.
Making them unsigned made it clear that some other variables in the code
should also be unsigned, so we also make those unsigned. This prevents
users from setting negative values that could potentially cause bad
behaviors. It also makes the code slightly easier to understand.
Mostly module parameters that deal with timeouts, limits, bitshifts and
percentages are made unsigned by this. Any that are boolean are left
signed, since whether booleans should be considered signed or unsigned
does not matter.
Making zfs_arc_lotsfree_percent unsigned caused a
`zfs_arc_lotsfree_percent >= 0` check to become redundant, so it was
removed. Removing the check was also necessary to prevent a compiler
error from -Werror=type-limits.
Several end of line comments had to be moved to their own lines because
replacing int with uint_t caused us to exceed the 80 character limit
enforced by cstyle.pl.
The following were kept signed because they are passed to
taskq_create(), which expects signed values and modifying the
OpenSolaris/Illumos DDI is out of scope of this patch:
* metaslab_load_pct
* zfs_sync_taskq_batch_pct
* zfs_zil_clean_taskq_nthr_pct
* zfs_zil_clean_taskq_minalloc
* zfs_zil_clean_taskq_maxalloc
* zfs_arc_prune_task_threads
Also, negative values in those parameters was found to be harmless.
The following were left signed because either negative values make
sense, or more analysis was needed to determine whether negative values
should be disallowed:
* zfs_metaslab_switch_threshold
* zfs_pd_bytes_max
* zfs_livelist_min_percent_shared
zfs_multihost_history was made static to be consistent with other
parameters.
A number of module parameters were marked as signed, but in reality
referenced unsigned variables. upgrade_errlog_limit is one of the
numerous examples. In the case of zfs_vdev_async_read_max_active, it was
already uint32_t, but zdb had an extern int declaration for it.
Interestingly, the documentation in zfs.4 was right for
upgrade_errlog_limit despite the module parameter being wrongly marked,
while the documentation for zfs_vdev_async_read_max_active (and friends)
was wrong. It was also wrong for zstd_abort_size, which was unsigned,
but was documented as signed.
Also, the documentation in zfs.4 incorrectly described the following
parameters as ulong when they were int:
* zfs_arc_meta_adjust_restarts
* zfs_override_estimate_recordsize
They are now uint_t as of this patch and thus the man page has been
updated to describe them as uint.
dbuf_state_index was left alone since it does nothing and perhaps should
be removed in another patch.
If any module parameters were missed, they were not found by `grep -r
'ZFS_MODULE_PARAM' | grep ', INT'`. I did find a few that grep missed,
but only because they were in files that had hits.
This patch intentionally did not attempt to address whether some of
these module parameters should be elevated to 64-bit parameters, because
the length of a long on 32-bit is 32-bit.
Lastly, it was pointed out during review that uint_t is a better match
for these variables than uint32_t because FreeBSD kernel parameter
definitions are designed for uint_t, whose bit width can change in
future memory models. As a result, we change the existing parameters
that are uint32_t to use uint_t.

Coverity found a bug in `zfs_secpolicy_create_clone()` where it is
possible for us to pass an unterminated string when `zfs_get_parent()`
returns an error. Upon inspection, it is clear that using `strlcpy()`
would have avoided this issue.
Looking at the codebase, there are a number of other uses of `strncpy()`
that are unsafe and even when it is used safely, switching to
`strlcpy()` would make the code more readable. Therefore, we switch all
instances where we use `strncpy()` to use `strlcpy()`.
Unfortunately, we do not portably have access to `strlcpy()` in
tests/zfs-tests/cmd/zfs_diff-socket.c because it does not link to
libspl. Modifying the appropriate Makefile.am to try to link to it
resulted in an error from the naming choice used in the file. Trying to
disable the check on the file did not work on FreeBSD because Clang
ignores `#undef` when a definition is provided by `-Dstrncpy(...)=...`.
We workaround that by explictly including the C file from libspl into
the test. This makes things build correctly everywhere.
We add a deprecation warning to `config/Rules.am` and suppress it on the
remaining `strncpy()` usage. `strlcpy()` is not portably avaliable in
tests/zfs-tests/cmd/zfs_diff-socket.c, so we use `snprintf()` there as a
substitute.
This patch does not tackle the related problem of `strcpy()`, which is
even less safe. Thankfully, a quick inspection found that it is used far
more correctly than strncpy() was used. A quick inspection did not find
any problems with `strcpy()` usage outside of zhack, but it should be
said that I only checked around 90% of them.
Lastly, some of the fields in kstat_t varied in size by 1 depending on
whether they were in userspace or in the kernel. The origin of this
discrepancy appears to be 04a479f706 where
it was made for no apparent reason. It conflicts with the comment on
KSTAT_STRLEN, so we shrink the kernel field sizes to match the userspace
field sizes.

When iterating through children physical ashifts for vdev, prefer
ones above the maximum logical ashift, that we can actually use,
but within the administrator defined maximum.
When selecting top-level vdev ashift, do not set it to the defined
maximum in case physical ashift is even higher, but just ignore one.
Using the maximum does not prevent misaligned writes, but reduces
space efficiency. Since ZFS tries to write data sequentially and
aggregates the writes, in many cases large misanigned writes may be
not as bad as the space penalty otherwise.
Allow internal physical ashifts for vdevs higher than SHIFT_MAX.
May be one day allocator or aggregation could benefit from that.
Reduce zfs_vdev_max_auto_ashift default from 16 (64KB) to 14 (16KB),
so that ZFS may still use bigger ashifts up to SHIFT_MAX (64KB),
but only if it really has to or explicitly told to, but not as an
"optimization".
There are some read-intensive NVMe SSDs that report Preferred Write
Alignment of 64KB, and attempt to build RAIDZ2 of those leads to a
space inefficiency that can't be justified. Instead these changes
make ZFS fall back to logical ashift of 12 (4KB) by default and
only warn user that it may be suboptimal for performance.
