Parts of the Linux kernel build system struggle with _Noreturn. This
results in the following warnings when building on RHEL 8.5, and likely
other environments. Switch to using the __attribute__((noreturn)).
warning: objtool: dbuf_free_range()+0x2b8:
return with modified stack frame
warning: objtool: dbuf_free_range()+0x0:
stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+40 cfa2=7+8
...
WARNING: EXPORT symbol "arc_buf_size" [zfs.ko] version generation
failed, symbol will not be versioned.
WARNING: EXPORT symbol "spa_open" [zfs.ko] version generation
failed, symbol will not be versioned.
...
Additionally, __thread_exit() has been renamed spl_thread_exit() and
made a static inline function. This was needed because the kernel
will generate a warning for symbols which are __attribute__((noreturn))
and then exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL.
While we could continue to use _Noreturn in user space I've also
switched it to __attribute__((noreturn)) purely for consistency
throughout the code base.

A function that returns with no value is a different thing from a
function that doesn't return at all. Those are two orthogonal
concepts, commonly confused.
pthread_create(3) expects a pointer to a start routine that has a
very precise prototype:
void *(*start_routine)(void *);
However, other thread functions, such as kernel ones, expect:
void (*start_routine)(void *);
Providing a different one is incorrect, and has only been working
because the ABIs happen to produce a compatible function.
We should use '_Noreturn void', since it's the natural type, and
then provide a '_Noreturn void *' wrapper for pthread functions.
For consistency, replace most cases of __NORETURN or
__attribute__((noreturn)) by _Noreturn. _Noreturn is understood
by -std=gnu89, so it should be safe to use everywhere.

As of the 5.10 kernel the generic splice compatibility code has been
removed. All filesystems are now responsible for registering a
->splice_read and ->splice_write callback to support this operation.
The good news is the VFS provided generic_file_splice_read() and
iter_file_splice_write() callbacks can be used provided the ->iter_read
and ->iter_write callback support pipes. However, this is currently
not the case and only iovecs and bvecs (not pipes) are ever attached
to the uio structure.
This commit changes that by allowing full iov_iter structures to be
attached to uios. Ever since the 4.9 kernel the iov_iter structure
has supported iovecs, kvecs, bvevs, and pipes so it's desirable to
pass the entire thing when possible. In conjunction with this the
uio helper functions (i.e uiomove(), uiocopy(), etc) have been
updated to understand the new UIO_ITER type.
Note that using the kernel provided uio_iter interfaces allowed the
existing Linux specific uio handling code to be simplified. When
there's no longer a need to support kernel's older than 4.9, then
it will be possible to remove the iovec and bvec members from the
uio structure and always use a uio_iter. Until then we need to
maintain all of the existing types for older kernels.
Some additional refactoring and cleanup was included in this change:
- Added checks to configure to detect available iov_iter interfaces.
Some are available all the way back to the 3.10 kernel and are used
when available. In particular, uio_prefaultpages() now always uses
iov_iter_fault_in_readable() which is available for all supported
kernels.
- The unused UIO_USERISPACE type has been removed. It is no longer
needed now that the uio_seg enum is platform specific.
- Moved zfs_uio.c from the zcommon.ko module to the Linux specific
platform code for the zfs.ko module. This gets it out of libzfs
where it was never needed and keeps this Linux specific code out
of the common sources.
- Removed unnecessary O_APPEND handling from zfs_iter_write(), this
is redundant and O_APPEND is already handled in zfs_write();

Closes#10650
The ARC shrinker callback `arc_shrinker_count/_scan()` is invoked by the
kernel's shrinker mechanism when the system is running low on free
pages. This happens via 2 code paths:
1. "direct reclaim": The system is attempting to allocate a page, but we
are low on memory. The ARC shrinker callback is invoked from the
page-allocation code path.
2. "indirect reclaim": kswapd notices that there aren't many free pages,
so it invokes the ARC shrinker callback.
In both cases, the kernel's shrinker code requests that the ARC shrinker
callback release some of its cache, and then it measures how many pages
were released. However, it's measurement of released pages does not
include pages that are freed via `__free_pages()`, which is how the ARC
releases memory (via `abd_free_chunks()`). Rather, the kernel shrinker
code is looking for pages to be placed on the lists of reclaimable pages
(which is separate from actually-free pages).
Because the kernel shrinker code doesn't detect that the ARC has
released pages, it may call the ARC shrinker callback many times,
resulting in the ARC "collapsing" down to `arc_c_min`. This has several
negative impacts:
1. ZFS doesn't use RAM to cache data effectively.
2. In the direct reclaim case, a single page allocation may wait a long
time (e.g. more than a minute) while we evict the entire ARC.
3. Even with the improvements made in 67c0f0dedc ("ARC shrinking blocks
reads/writes"), occasionally `arc_size` may stay above `arc_c` for the
entire time of the ARC collapse, thus blocking ZFS read/write operations
in `arc_get_data_impl()`.
To address these issues, this commit limits the ways that the ARC
shrinker callback can be used by the kernel shrinker code, and mitigates
the impact of arc_is_overflowing() on ZFS read/write operations.
With this commit:
1. We limit the amount of data that can be reclaimed from the ARC via
the "direct reclaim" shrinker. This limits the amount of time it takes
to allocate a single page.
2. We do not allow the ARC to shrink via kswapd (indirect reclaim).
Instead we rely on `arc_evict_zthr` to monitor free memory and reduce
the ARC target size to keep sufficient free memory in the system. Note
that we can't simply rely on limiting the amount that we reclaim at once
(as for the direct reclaim case), because kswapd's "boosted" logic can
invoke the callback an unlimited number of times (see
`balance_pgdat()`).
3. When `arc_is_overflowing()` and we want to allocate memory,
`arc_get_data_impl()` will wait only for a multiple of the requested
amount of data to be evicted, rather than waiting for the ARC to no
longer be overflowing. This allows ZFS reads/writes to make progress
even while the ARC is overflowing, while also ensuring that the eviction
thread makes progress towards reducing the total amount of memory used
by the ARC.
4. The amount of memory that the ARC always tries to keep free for the
rest of the system, `arc_sys_free` is increased.
5. Now that the shrinker callback is able to provide feedback to the
kernel's shrinker code about our progress, we can safely enable
the kswapd hook. This will allow the arc to receive notifications
when memory pressure is first detected by the kernel. We also
re-enable the appropriate kstats to track these callbacks.

FreeBSD defines _BIG_ENDIAN BIG_ENDIAN _LITTLE_ENDIAN
LITTLE_ENDIAN on every architecture. Trying to do
cross builds whilst hiding this from ZFS has proven
extremely cumbersome.

Closes#10621
By default, `spl_kmem_cache_expire` is `KMC_EXPIRE_MEM`, meaning that
objects will be removed from kmem cache magazines by
`spl_kmem_cache_reap_now()`.
There is also a module parameter to change this to `KMC_EXPIRE_AGE`,
which establishes a maximum lifetime for objects to stay in the
magazine. This setting has rarely, if ever, been used, and is not
regularly tested.
This commit removes the code for `KMC_EXPIRE_AGE`, and associated module
parameters.
Additionally, the unused module parameter
`spl_kmem_cache_obj_per_slab_min` is removed.

Closes#10608
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.
