In the interest of maintaining only one udev helper to give vdevs
user friendly names, the zpool_id and zpool_layout infrastructure
is being retired. They are superseded by vdev_id which incorporates
all the previous functionality.
Documentation for the new vdev_id(8) helper and its configuration
file, vdev_id.conf(5), can be found in their respective man pages.
Several useful example files are installed under /etc/zfs/.
/etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf.alias.example
/etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf.multipath.example
/etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf.sas_direct.example
/etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf.sas_switch.example

During 'zpool import' all ZPOOL_CONFIG_PATH names are supposed
to be updated by fix_paths(). This was not happening for spare
and cache devices because the proper names were getting filtered
out of the pool_list_t->names. Interestingly, the names were
being filtered because the spare and cache devices do not
contain the pool name in their vdev label.
The fix is to exclude the device path from the list only if:
1) has a valid ZPOOL_CONFIG_POOL_NAME key in the label, and
2) that pool name does not match the specified pool name.
Since the label is valid and because it does properly store the
vdev guid it will be correctly assembled without the pool name.

Closes#725
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.

The goal of this change is to make 'zpool import' prefer to use
the peristent /dev/mapper or /dev/disk/by-* paths. These are far
preferable to the devices in /dev/ whos names are not persistent
and are determined by the order in which a device is detected.
This patch improves things by changing the default search path from
just to the top level /dev/ directory to (in order):
/dev/disk/by-vdev - Custom rules, use first if they exist
/dev/disk/zpool - Custom rules, use first if they exist
/dev/mapper - Use multipath devices before components
/dev/disk/by-uuid - Single unique entry and persistent
/dev/disk/by-id - May be multiple entries and persistent
/dev/disk/by-path - Encodes physical location and persistent
/dev/disk/by-label - Custom persistent labels
/dev - UNSAFE device names will change
The default search path can be overriden by setting the
ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH environment variable. This must be a colon
delimited list of paths which are searched for vdevs. If the
'zpool import -d' option is specified only those listed paths
will be searched.
Finally, when multiple paths to the same device are found. If one
of the paths is an exact match for the path used last time to import
the pool it will be used. When there are no exact matches the
prefered path will be determined by the provided search order.
This means you can still import a pool and force specific names by
providing the -d <path> option. And the prefered names will persist
as long as those paths exist on your system.

There are three improvements here to 'zpool import' proposed by Fajar
in Github issue #98. They are all good so I'm commiting all three.
1) Add descriptions for "hpet" and "core" blacklist entries.
2) Add "core" to the blacklist, as described in the issue accessing
this device will crash Xen dom0.
3) Refine probing behavior to use fstatat64(). This allows us to
determine if a device is a block device or a regular file without
having to open it. This is the safest appraoch when probing /dev/
because the simple act of opening a device may have unexpected
consequences.
Closes#98
If libblkid does not contain ZFS support, then 'zpool import' will scan
all block devices in /dev/ to determine which ones are components of a
ZFS filesystem. It does this by opening all the devices and stat'ing
them to determine which ones are block devices. If the device turns
out not to be a block device it is skipped.
Usually, this whole process is pretty harmless (although slow). But
there are certain devices in /dev/ which must be handled in a very
specific way or your system may crash. For example, if /dev/watchdog
is simply opened the watchdog timer will be started and your system
will panic when the timer expires.
It turns out the /dev/hpet causes similiar problems although only when
accessed under a virtual machine. For some reason accessing /dev/hpet
causes qemu to crash. To address this issue this commit adds /dev/hpet
to the device blacklist, it will be skipped solely based on its name.
This topic branch contains all the changes needed to integrate the user
side zfs tools with Linux style devices. Primarily this includes fixing
up the Solaris libefi library to be Linux friendly, and integrating with
the libblkid library which is provided by e2fsprogs.

Fix non-c90 compliant code, for the most part these changes
simply deal with where a particular variable is declared.
Under c90 it must alway be done at the very start of a block.
