Brian Behlendorf 66e93f5e4e Fix automatically generated release number
When building from the head of a branch a release number is
automatically generated with `git describe` using the last tag
on that branch as the base.  For this to work the last tag on the
branch needs to be predictable given the current META file.

This logic was accidentally broken when an -rcX tag was added to
the branch.  Update it to search for a VERSION or VERSION-RELEASE
tag.

ZFS Test Suite Performance Regression Tests

This was pulled into OpenZFS via the compressed arc featureand was
separated out in zfsonlinux as a separate pull request from PR-4768.
It originally came in as QA-4903 in Delphix-OS from John Kennedy.

Expected Usage:

$ DISKS="sdb sdc sdd" zfs-tests.sh -r perf-regression.run

Porting Notes:
1. Added assertions in the setup script to make sure required tools
   (fio, mpstat, ...) are present.
2. For the config.json generation in perf.shlib used arcstats and
    other binaries instead of dtrace to query the values.
3. For the perf data collection:
   - use "zpool iostat -lpvyL" instead of the io.d dtrace script
    (currently not collecting zfs_read/write latency stats)
   - mpstat and iostat take different arguments
   - prefetch_io.sh is a placeholder that uses arcstats instead of
     dtrace
4. Build machines require fio, mdadm and sysstat pakage (YMMV).

Future Work:
   - Need a way to measure zfs_read and zfs_write latencies per pool.
   - Need tools to takes two sets of output and display/graph the
     differences
   - Bring over additional regression tests from Delphix

Sydney Vanda 7050a65d5c Real disk partitioning now enabled in test suite for Linux
When using real devices, specify DISKS="sdb sdc sdd" opposed to
/dev/sdb in zfs-tests.sh - otherwise errors with directory names and
disk names registering as "/dev//dev/sdb" for some tests.  The same
goes for mpath: DISK="mpatha mpathad mpathb"

Expected Usage:

$ DISKS="sdb sdc sdd" zfs-tests.sh

SLICE_PREFIX is now set as "p" for a loop device (ie loop0p2) or
"" for a real device (ie sdb2), or either for multipath devices
(ie mpatha1 or mpath1p1) instead of only "p" by default.  Note that
kpartx partitioning is not currently supported in this patch
(ie "partx") and may need to be disabled on Debian distributions.
Functions added for determining test directory (/dev or /dev/mapper)
as well as slice prefix are determined and exported mostly in the cfg
file of each test group directory.

Currently zpools cannot be created on whole mpath devices that have
been partitioned. In order to fix this tests have either been revised
to use a partition instead, or if there is a size constraint and the
pool needs to be created on the whole disk, partitions are then deleted
if the device is a multipath device.  This functionality is added to
default_cleanup() or to individual cleanup scripts if a non-default
cleanup method is used.

The max partitions is currently set at 8 to account for all of the
tests thus far.

Patch changes are generally encompassed in "if is_linux" construct.

Since from Linux 3.14, get_acl already check the cache for us, so we
disable this in zpl_get_acl.

Linux 4.7 also does set_cached_acl for us so we disable it in zpl_get_acl.

Nikolay Borisov 4b9dddf430 Add handling for kernel 4.7's CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
Kernel 4.7 added the option to trim the unused exported symbols. In
my testing this showed to be problematic since the PDE_DATA function
was considered unused and as such was trimmed. This in turn caused the
respective test during spl's configure stage to falsely detect that
PDE_DATA is not defined, which in turn caused build failures later.

Handle this situation by adding detection whether CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
is enabled and refuse to build against a kernel which has it enabled

Tim Chase e6603b7c1f Fix sync behavior for disk vdevs
Prior to b39c22b, which was first generally available in the 0.6.5
release as b39c22b, ZoL never actually submitted synchronous read or write
requests to the Linux block layer.  This means the vdev_disk_dio_is_sync()
function had always returned false and, therefore, the completion in
dio_request_t.dr_comp was never actually used.

In b39c22b, synchronous ZIO operations were translated to synchronous
BIO requests in vdev_disk_io_start().  The follow-on commits 5592404 and
aa159af fixed several problems introduced by b39c22b.  In particular,
5592404 introduced the new flag parameter "wait" to __vdev_disk_physio()
but under ZoL, since vdev_disk_physio() is never actually used, the wait
flag was always zero so the new code had no effect other than to cause
a bug in the use of the dio_request_t.dr_comp which was fixed by aa159af.

The original rationale for introducing synchronous operations in b39c22b
was to hurry certains requests through the BIO layer which would have
otherwise been subject to its unplug timer which would increase the
latency.  This behavior of the unplug timer, however, went away during the
transition of the plug/unplug system between kernels 2.6.32 and 2.6.39.

To handle the unplug timer behavior on 2.6.32-2.6.35 kernels the
BIO_RW_UNPLUG flag is used as a hint to suppress the plugging behavior.

For kernels 2.6.36-2.6.38, the REQ_UNPLUG macro will be available and
ise used for the same purpose.

Tom Caputi 0b04990a5d Illumos Crypto Port module added to enable native encryption in zfs
A port of the Illumos Crypto Framework to a Linux kernel module (found
in module/icp). This is needed to do the actual encryption work. We cannot
use the Linux kernel's built in crypto api because it is only exported to
GPL-licensed modules. Having the ICP also means the crypto code can run on
any of the other kernels under OpenZFS. I ended up porting over most of the
internals of the framework, which means that porting over other API calls (if
we need them) should be fairly easy. Specifically, I have ported over the API
functions related to encryption, digests, macs, and crypto templates. The ICP
is able to use assembly-accelerated encryption on amd64 machines and AES-NI
instructions on Intel chips that support it. There are place-holder
directories for similar assembly optimizations for other architectures
(although they have not been written).

rw_tryupgrade should be atomic and could cause extra contention or even lock

This patch we implement a proper rw_tryupgrade. For rwsem-spinlock, we take
the spinlock to check rwsem->count and rwsem->wait_list. For normal rwsem, we
use cmpxchg on rwsem->count to change the value from single reader to single

Also, we remove the strcmp checks when xattr_handler has name, because
xattr_resolve_name will do the check for us.

Gvozden Neskovic fc0c72b167 Support for vectorized algorithms on x86
This is initial support for x86 vectorized implementations of ZFS parity
and checksum algorithms.

For the compilation phase, configure step checks if toolchain supports relevant
instruction sets. Each implementation must ensure that the code is not passed
to compiler if relevant instruction set is not supported. For this purpose,
following new defines are provided if instruction set is supported:
	- HAVE_SSE,
	- HAVE_SSE2,
	- HAVE_SSE3,
	- HAVE_SSSE3,
	- HAVE_SSE4_1,
	- HAVE_SSE4_2,
	- HAVE_AVX,
	- HAVE_AVX2.

For detecting if an instruction set can be used in runtime, following functions
are provided in (include/linux/simd_x86.h):
	- zfs_sse_available()
	- zfs_sse2_available()
	- zfs_sse3_available()
	- zfs_ssse3_available()
	- zfs_sse4_1_available()
	- zfs_sse4_2_available()
	- zfs_avx_available()
	- zfs_avx2_available()
	- zfs_bmi1_available()
	- zfs_bmi2_available()

These function should be called once, on module load, or initialization.
They are safe to use from user and kernel space.
If an implementation is using more than single instruction set, both compiler
and runtime support for all relevant instruction sets should be checked.

Kernel fpu methods:
	- kfpu_begin()
	- kfpu_end()

Use __get_cpuid_max and __cpuid_count from <cpuid.h>
Both gcc and clang have support for these. They also handle ebx register
in case it is used for PIC code.

Richard Yao e853ba3519 Cleanup linking
I noticed during code review of zfsonlinux/zfs#4385 that the author of a
commit had peppered the various Makefile.am files with `$(TIRPC_LIBS)`
when putting it into `lib/libspl/Makefile.am` should have sufficed. Upon
further examination, it seems that he had copied what we do with
`$(ZLIB)`. We also have a bit of that with `-ldl` too.  Unfortunately,
what we do is wrong, so lets fix it to set a good example for future
contributors.

In addition, we have multiple `-lz` and `-luuid` passed to the compiler
because each `AC_CHECK_LIB` adds it to `$LIBS`. That is somewhat
annoying to see, so we switch to `AC_SEARCH_LIBS` to avoid it.  This is
consistent with the recommendation to use `AC_SEARCH_LIBS` over
`AC_CHECK_LIB` by autotools upstream:

https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.66/html_node/Libraries.html

In an ideal world, this would translate into improvements in ELF's
`DT_NEEDED` entries, but that is not the case because of a couple of
bugs in libtool.

The first bug causes libtool to overlink by using static link
dependencies for dynamic linking:

https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Overlinking_issues_in_packaging#libtool_issues

The workaround for this should be to pass `-Wl,--as-needed` in
`LDFLAGS`. That leads us to the second bug, where libtool passes
`LDFLAGS` after the libraries are specified and `ld` will only honor
`--as-needed` on libraries specified before it:

https://sigquit.wordpress.com/2011/02/16/why-asneeded-doesnt-work-as-expected-for-your-libraries-on-your-autotools-project/

There are a few possible workarounds for the second bug. One is to
either patch the compiler spec file to specify `-Wl,--as-needed` or pass
`-Wl,--as-needed` via `CC` like `CC='gcc -Wl,--as-needed'` so that it is
specified early. Another is to patch ltmain.sh like Gentoo does:

https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/eclass/ELT-patches/as-needed

Without one of those workarounds, this cleanup provides no benefit in
terms of `DT_NEEDED` entry generation. It should still be an improvement
because it nicely simplifies the code while encouraging good habits when
patching autotools scripts.

Brian Behlendorf 6bb24f4dc7 Add the ZFS Test Suite
Add the ZFS Test Suite and test-runner framework from illumos.
This is a continuation of the work done by Turbo Fredriksson to
port the ZFS Test Suite to Linux.  While this work was originally
conceived as a stand alone project integrating it directly with
the ZoL source tree has several advantages:

  * Allows the ZFS Test Suite to be packaged in zfs-test package.
    * Facilitates easy integration with the CI testing.
    * Users can locally run the ZFS Test Suite to validate ZFS.
      This testing should ONLY be done on a dedicated test system
      because the ZFS Test Suite in its current form is destructive.
  * Allows the ZFS Test Suite to be run directly in the ZoL source
    tree enabled developers to iterate quickly during development.
  * Developers can easily add/modify tests in the framework as
    features are added or functionality is changed.  The tests
    will then always be in sync with the implementation.

Full documentation for how to run the ZFS Test Suite is available
in the tests/README.md file.

Warning: This test suite is designed to be run on a dedicated test
system.  It will make modifications to the system including, but
not limited to, the following.

  * Adding new users
  * Adding new groups
  * Modifying the following /proc files:
    * /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
    * /proc/sys/kernel/core_uses_pid
  * Creating directories under /

Notes:
  * Not all of the test cases are expected to pass and by default
    these test cases are disabled.  The failures are primarily due
    to assumption made for illumos which are invalid under Linux.
  * When updating these test cases it should be done in as generic
    a way as possible so the patch can be submitted back upstream.
    Most existing library functions have been updated to be Linux
    aware, and the following functions and variables have been added.
    * Functions:
      * is_linux          - Used to wrap a Linux specific section.
      * block_device_wait - Waits for block devices to be added to /dev/.
    * Variables:            Linux          Illumos
      * ZVOL_DEVDIR         "/dev/zvol"    "/dev/zvol/dsk"
      * ZVOL_RDEVDIR        "/dev/zvol"    "/dev/zvol/rdsk"
      * DEV_DSKDIR          "/dev"         "/dev/dsk"
      * DEV_RDSKDIR         "/dev"         "/dev/rdsk"
      * NEWFS_DEFAULT_FS    "ext2"         "ufs"
  * Many of the disabled test cases fail because 'zfs/zpool destroy'
    returns EBUSY.  This is largely causes by the asynchronous nature
    of device handling on Linux and is expected, the impacted test
    cases will need to be updated to handle this.
  * There are several test cases which have been disabled because
    they can trigger a deadlock.  A primary example of this is to
    recursively create zpools within zpools.  These tests have been
    disabled until the root issue can be addressed.
  * Illumos specific utilities such as (mkfile) should be added to
    the tests/zfs-tests/cmd/ directory.  Custom programs required by
    the test scripts can also be added here.
  * SELinux should be either is permissive mode or disabled when
    running the tests.  The test cases should be updated to conform
    to a standard policy.
  * Redundant test functionality has been removed (zfault.sh).
  * Existing test scripts (zconfig.sh) should be migrated to use
    the framework for consistency and ease of testing.
  * The DISKS environment variable currently only supports loopback
    devices because of how the ZFS Test Suite expects partitions to
    be named (p1, p2, etc).  Support must be added to generate the
    correct partition name based on the device location and name.
  * The ZFS Test Suite is part of the illumos code base at:
    https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/tree/master/usr/src/test

Brian Behlendorf 7d11e37e55 Require libblkid
Historically libblkid support was detected as part of configure
and optionally enabled.  This was done because at the time support
for detecting ZFS pool vdevs had just be added to libblkid and
those updated packages were not yet part of many distributions.
This is no longer the case and any reasonably current distribution
will ship a version of libblkid which can detect ZFS pool vdevs.

This patch makes libblkid mandatory at build time and libblkid
the preferred method of scanning for ZFS pools.  For distributions
which include a modern version of libblkid there is no change in
behavior.  Explicitly scanning the default search paths is still
supported and can be enabled with the '-s' command line option.

Additionally making libblkid mandatory means that the 'zpool create'
command can reliably detect if a specified device has an existing
non-ZFS filesystem (ext4, xfs) and print a warning.

Brian Behlendorf 4967a3eb9d Linux 4.5 compat: xattr list handler
The registered xattr .list handler was simplified in the 4.5 kernel
to only perform a permission check.  Given a dentry for the file it
must return a boolean indicating if the name is visible.  This
differs slightly from the previous APIs which also required the
function to copy the name in to the provided list and return its
size.  That is now all the responsibility of the caller.

This should be straight forward change to make to ZoL since we've
always required the caller to make the copy.  However, this was
slightly complicated by the need to support 3 older APIs.  Yes,
between 2.6.32 and 4.5 there are 4 versions of this interface!

Therefore, while the functional change in this patch is small it
includes significant cleanup to make the code understandable and
maintainable.  These changes include:

- Improved configure checks for .list, .get, and .set interfaces.
  - Interfaces checked from newest to oldest.
  - Strict checking for each possible known interface.
  - Configure fails when no known interface is available.
  - HAVE_*_XATTR_LIST renamed HAVE_XATTR_LIST_* for consistency
    with similar iops and fops configure checks.

- POSIX_ACL_XATTR_{DEFAULT|ACCESS} were removed forcing callers to
  move to their replacements, XATTR_NAME_POSIX_ACL_{DEFAULT|ACCESS}.
  Compatibility wrapper were added for old kernels.

- ZPL_XATTR_LIST_WRAPPER added which behaves the same as the existing
  ZPL_XATTR_{GET|SET} WRAPPERs.  Only the inode is guaranteed to be
  a valid pointer, passing NULL for the 'list' and 'name' variables
  is allowed and must be checked for.  All .list functions were
  updated to use the wrapper to aid readability.

- zpl_xattr_filldir() updated to use the .list function for its
  permission check which is consistent with the updated Linux 4.5
  interface.  If a .list function is registered it should return 0
  to indicate a name should be skipped, if there is no registered
  function the name will be added.

- Additional documentation from xattr(7) describing the correct
  behavior for each namespace was added before the relevant handlers.

Brian Behlendorf b58986eebf Use large stacks when available

8K on x86_64 systems.  However, as of Linux 3.15 the default thread stack
size was increased to 16K.  These kernels are now the default in most non-
enterprise distributions which means we no longer need to assume 8K stacks.

This patch takes advantage of that fact by appropriately reverting stack
conservation changes which were made to ensure stability.  Changes which
may have had a negative impact on performance for certain workloads.  This
also has the side effect of bringing the code slightly more in line with

Brian Behlendorf 5592404784 Fix synchronous behavior in __vdev_disk_physio()
Commit b39c22b set the READ_SYNC and WRITE_SYNC flags for a bio
based on the ZIO_PRIORITY_* flag passed in.  This had the unnoticed
side-effect of making the vdev_disk_io_start() synchronous for
certain I/Os.

This in turn resulted in vdev_disk_io_start() being able to
re-dispatch zio's which would result in a RCU stalls when a disk
was removed from the system.  Additionally, this could negatively
impact performance and explains the performance regressions reported
in both #3829 and #3780.

This patch resolves the issue by making the blocking behavior
dependent on a 'wait' flag being passed rather than overloading
the passed bio flags.

Finally, the WRITE_SYNC and READ_SYNC behavior is restricted to
non-rotational devices where there is no benefit to queuing to
aggregate the I/O.

Richard Yao 37f9dac592 zvol processing should use struct bio
Internally, zvols are files exposed through the block device API. This
is intended to reduce overhead when things require block devices.
However, the ZoL zvol code emulates a traditional block device in that
it has a top half and a bottom half. This is an unnecessary source of
overhead that does not exist on any other OpenZFS platform does this.
This patch removes it. Early users of this patch reported double digit
performance gains in IOPS on zvols in the range of 50% to 80%.

Comments in the code suggest that the current implementation was done to
obtain IO merging from Linux's IO elevator. However, the DMU already
does write merging while arc_read() should implicitly merge read IOs
because only 1 thread is permitted to fetch the buffer into ARC. In
addition, commercial ZFSOnLinux distributions report that regular files
are more performant than zvols under the current implementation, and the
main consumers of zvols are VMs and iSCSI targets, which have their own
elevators to merge IOs.

Some minor refactoring allows us to register zfs_request() as our
->make_request() handler in place of the generic_make_request()
function. This eliminates the layer of code that broke IO requests on
zvols into a top half and a bottom half. This has several benefits:

1. No per zvol spinlocks.
2. No redundant IO elevator processing.
3. Interrupts are disabled only when actually necessary.
4. No redispatching of IOs when all taskq threads are busy.
5. Linux's page out routines will properly block.
6. Many autotools checks become obsolete.

An unfortunate consequence of eliminating the layer that
generic_make_request() is that we no longer calls the instrumentation
hooks for block IO accounting. Those hooks are GPL-exported, so we
cannot call them ourselves and consequently, we lose the ability to do
IO monitoring via iostat.  Since zvols are internally files mapped as
block devices, this should be okay. Anyone who is willing to accept the
performance penalty for the block IO layer's accounting could use the
loop device in between the zvol and its consumer. Alternatively, perf
and ftrace likely could be used. Also, tools like latencytop will still
work. Tools such as latencytop sometimes provide a better view of
performance bottlenecks than the traditional block IO accounting tools
do.

Lastly, if direct reclaim occurs during spacemap loading and swap is on
a zvol, this code will deadlock. That deadlock could already occur with
sync=always on zvols. Given that swap on zvols is not yet production
ready, this is not a blocker.

Brian Behlendorf 278bee9319 Linux 3.18 compat: Snapshot auto-mounting
Re-factor the .zfs/snapshot auto-mouting code to take in to account
changes made to the upstream kernels.  And to lay the groundwork for
enabling access to .zfs snapshots via NFS clients.  This patch makes
the following core improvements.

* All actively auto-mounted snapshots are now tracked in two global
trees which are indexed by snapshot name and objset id respectively.
This allows for fast lookups of any auto-mounted snapshot regardless
without needing access to the parent dataset.

* Snapshot entries are added to the tree in zfsctl_snapshot_mount().
However, they are now removed from the tree in the context of the
unmount process.  This eliminates the need complicated error logic
in zfsctl_snapshot_unmount() to handle unmount failures.

* References are now taken on the snapshot entries in the tree to
ensure they always remain valid while a task is outstanding.

* The MNT_SHRINKABLE flag is set on the snapshot vfsmount_t right
after the auto-mount succeeds.  This allows to kernel to unmount
idle auto-mounted snapshots if needed removing the need for the
zfsctl_unmount_snapshots() function.

* Snapshots in active use will not be automatically unmounted.  As
long as at least one dentry is revalidated every zfs_expire_snapshot/2
seconds the auto-unmount expiration timer will be extended.

* Commit torvalds/linux@bafc9b7 caused snapshots auto-mounted by ZFS
to be immediately unmounted when the dentry was revalidated.  This
was a consequence of ZFS invaliding all snapdir dentries to ensure that
negative dentries didn't mask new snapshots.  This patch modifies the
behavior such that only negative dentries are invalidated.  This solves
the issue and may result in a performance improvement.

Brian Behlendorf bd29109f1a Linux 4.2 compat: follow_link() / put_link()
As of Linux 4.2 the kernel has completely retired the nameidata

This patch adds the required checks to configure to detect the
interface change and updates the functions accordingly.  Migrating
to the simple_follow_link() interface was considered but was decided
against ironically due to the increased complexity.

It also should be noted that the kernel follow_link() and put_link()
interfaces changes several times after 4.1 and but before 4.2.  This
means there is a narrow range of kernel commits which never appear
in an official tag of the Linux kernel which ZoL will not build.

* Supports booting of a ZFS snapshot.
  Do this by cloning the snapshot into a dataset. If this, the resulting
  dataset, already exists, destroy it. Then mount it on root.
  * If snapshot does not exist, use base dataset (the part before '@')
    as boot filesystem instead.
  * If no snapshot is specified on the 'root=' kernel command line, but there
    is an '@', then get a list of snapshots below that filesystem and ask the
    user which to use.
  * Clone with 'mountpoint=none' and 'canmount=noauto' - we mount manually
    and explicitly.
    * For sub-filesystems, that doesn't have a mountpoint property set, we use
      the 'org.zol:mountpoint' to keep track of it's mountpoint.
  * Allow rollback of snapshots instead of clone it and boot from the clone.
* Allow mounting a root- and subfs with mountpoint=legacy set
* Allow mounting a filesystem which is using nativ encryption.
* Support all currently used kernel command line arguments
  All the different distributions have their own standard on what to specify
  on the kernel command line to boot of a ZFS filesystem.
  * Extra options:
    * zfsdebug=(on,yes,1)	Show extra debugging information
    * zfsforce=(on,yes,1)	Force import the pool
    * rollback=(on,yes,1)	Rollback (instead of clone) the snapshot
* Only try to import pool if it haven't already been imported
  * This will negate the need to force import a pool that have not been exported cleanly.
  * Support exclusion of pools to import by setting ZFS_POOL_EXCEPTIONS in /etc/default/zfs.
* Support additional configuration variable ZFS_INITRD_ADDITIONAL_DATASETS
  to mount additional filesystems not located under your root dataset.
* Include /etc/modprobe.d/{zfs,spl}.conf in the initrd if it/they exist.
* Include the udev rule to use by-vdev for pool imports.
* Include the /etc/default/zfs file to the initrd.
* Only try /dev/disk/by-* in the initrd if USE_DISK_BY_ID is set.
  * Use /dev/disk/by-vdev before anything.
  * Add /dev as a last ditch attempt.
  * Fallback to using the cache file if that exist if nothing else worked.

Brian Behlendorf 218b4e0a76 Add zfs_sb_prune_aliases() function
For kernels which do not implement a per-suberblock shrinker,
those older than Linux 3.1, the shrink_dcache_parent() function
was used to attempt to reclaim dentries.  This was found not be
entirely reliable and could lead to performance issues on older
kernels running meta-data heavy workloads.

To address this issue a zfs_sb_prune_aliases() function has been
added to implement this functionality.  It relies on traversing
the list of znodes for a filesystem and adding them to a private
list with a reference held.  The private list can then be safely
walked outside the z_znodes_lock to prune dentires and drop the
last reference so the inode can be freed.

This provides the same synchronous behavior as the per-filesystem
shrinker and has the advantage of depending on only long standing
interfaces.

* Based on the init scripts included with Debian GNU/Linux, then take code
  from the already existing ones, trying to merge them into one set of
  scripts that will work for 'everyone' for better maintainability.
  * Add configurable variables to control the workings of the init scripts:
    * ZFS_INITRD_PRE_MOUNTROOT_SLEEP
      Set a sleep time before we load the module (used primarily by initrd
      scripts to allow for slower media (such as  USB devices etc) to be
      availible before we load the zfs module).
    * ZFS_INITRD_POST_MODPROBE_SLEEP
      Set a timed sleep in the initrd to after the load of the zfs module.
    * ZFS_INITRD_ADDITIONAL_DATASETS
      To allow for mounting additional datasets in the initrd. Primarily used
      in initrd scripts to allow for when filesystem needed to boot (such as
      /usr, /opt, /var etc) isn't directly under the root dataset.
    * ZFS_POOL_EXCEPTIONS
      Exclude pools from being imported (in the initrd and/or init scripts).
    * ZFS_DKMS_ENABLE_DEBUG, ZFS_DKMS_ENABLE_DEBUG_DMU_TX, ZFS_DKMS_DISABLE_STRIP
      Set to control how dkms should build the dkms packages.
    * ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH
      Set path(s) where "zpool import" should import pools from.
      This was previously the job of "USE_DISK_BY_ID" (which is still used
      for backwards compatibility) but was renamed to allow for better
      control of import path(s).
      * If old USE_DISK_BY_ID is set, but not new ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH, then we
        set ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH to sane defaults just to be on the safe side.
    * ZED_ARGS
      To allow for local options to zed without having to change the init script.
  * The import function, do_import(), imports pools by name instead of '-a'
    for better control of pools to import and from where.
    * If USE_DISK_BY_ID is set (for backwards compatibility), but isn't 'yes'
      then ignore it.
    * If pool(s) isn't found with a simple "zpool import" (seen it happen),
      try looking for them in /dev/disk/by-id (if it exists). Any duplicates
      (pools found with both commands) is filtered out.
      * IF we have found extra pool(s) this way, we must force USE_DISK_BY_ID
        so that the first, simple "zpool import $pool" is able to find it.
    * Fallback on importing the pool using the cache file (if it exists) only
      if 'simple' import (either with ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH or the 'built in'
      defaults) didn't work.
  * The export function, do_export(), will export all pools imported, EXCEPT
    the root pool (if there is one).
  * ZED script from the Debian GNU/Linux packages added.
    * Refreshed ZED init script from behlendorf@5e7a660 to be portable so it
      may be used on both LSB and Redhat style systems.
    * If there is no pool(s) imported and zed successfully shut down, we will
      unload the zfs modules.
  * The function library file for the ZoL init script is installed as
    /etc/init.d/zfs-functions.
  * The four init scripts, the /etc/{defaults,sysconfig,conf.d}/zfs config file
    as well as the common function library is tagged as '%config(noreplace)' in
    the rpm rules file to make sure they are not replaced automatically if locally
    modifed.
  * Pitfals and workarounds:
    * If we're running from init, remove stale /etc/dfs/sharetab before importing
      pools in the zfs-import init script.
    * On Debian GNU/Linux, there's a 'sendsigs' script that will kill basically
      everything quite early in the shutdown phase and zed is/should be stopped
      much later than that. We don't want zed to be among the ones killed, so add
      the zed pid to list of pids for 'sendsigs' to ignore.
    * CentOS uses echo_success() and echo_failure() to print out status of
      command. These in turn uses "echo -n \0xx[etc]" to move cursor and choose
      colour etc. This doesn't work with the modified IFS variable we need to
      use in zfs-import for some reason, so work around that when we define
      zfs_log_{end,failure}_msg() for RedHat and derivative distributions.
  * All scripts passes ShellCheck (with one false positive in do_mount()).

which must be handled.  A zpl_bdi_setup_and_register() wrapper function
has been introduced to provide a single interface to the ZPL code.

* 2.6.32 - 2.6.33, bdi_setup_and_register() is not exported.
* 2.6.34 - 3.19, bdi_setup_and_register() takes 3 arguments.
* 4.0 - x.y, bdi_setup_and_register() takes 2 arguments.

I've also taken this opportunity to remove HAVE_BDI because kernels
older then 2.6.32 are no longer supported.  All kernels newer than
this will have one of the above interfaces.

Brian Behlendorf 5f920fbee1 Retire MUTEX_OWNER checks
To minimize the size of a kmutex_t a MUTEX_OWNER check was added.
It allowed the kmutex_t wrapper to leverage the mutex owner which was
already stored in the mutex for certain kernel configurations.

The upside to this was that it reduced the size of the kmutex_t wrapper
structure by the size of a task_struct pointer (4/8 bytes).  The
downside was that two mutex implementations needed to be maintained.
Depending on your exact kernel configuration the correct one would
be selected.

Over the years this solution worked but it could be fragile since it
depending heavily on assumed kernel mutex implementation details.  For
example the SPL_AC_MUTEX_OWNER_TASK_STRUCT configure check needed to
be added when the kernel changed how the owner was stored.  It also
made the code more complicated than it needed to be.

Therefore, in the name of simplicity and portability this optimization
is being retired.  It will slightly increase the memory requirements
for a kmutex_t but only very slightly.

Ned Bass 4e30e68caf Don't use AC_LANG_SOURCE for conftest.h source
Using AC_LANG_SOURCE with some versions of autoconf is problematic if
the given source is to be written to a header file. Such versions assume
the contents are to be written to conftest.c and generate shell code to
that effect. The contents of the test program to detect support for
Linux tracepoints were consequently malformed (containing the source for
conftest.h) so the build system incorrectly disabled tracepoints
support. Fix this in ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_HEADER by passing the header
source directly to ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE.

Brian Behlendorf 8d9a23e82c Retire legacy debugging infrastructure
When the SPL was originally written Linux tracepoints were still
in their infancy.  Therefore, an entire debugging subsystem was
added to facilite tracing which served us well for many years.

Now that Linux tracepoints have matured they provide all the
functionality of the previous tracing subsystem.  Rather than
maintain parallel functionality it makes sense to fully adopt
tracepoints.  Therefore, this patch retires the legacy debugging
infrastructure.

See zfsonlinux/zfs@bc9f413 for the tracepoint changes.

Prakash Surya 0b39b9f96f Swap DTRACE_PROBE* with Linux tracepoints
This patch leverages Linux tracepoints from within the ZFS on Linux
code base. It also refactors the debug code to bring it back in sync
with Illumos.

The information exported via tracepoints can be used for a variety of
reasons (e.g. debugging, tuning, general exploration/understanding,
etc). It is advantageous to use Linux tracepoints as the mechanism to
export this kind of information (as opposed to something else) for a
number of reasons:

    * A number of external tools can make use of our tracepoints
      "automatically" (e.g. perf, systemtap)
    * Tracepoints are designed to be extremely cheap when disabled
    * It's one of the "accepted" ways to export this kind of
      information; many other kernel subsystems use tracepoints too.

Unfortunately, though, there are a few caveats as well:

    * Linux tracepoints appear to only be available to GPL licensed
      modules due to the way certain kernel functions are exported.
      Thus, to actually make use of the tracepoints introduced by this
      patch, one might have to patch and re-compile the kernel;
      exporting the necessary functions to non-GPL modules.

    * Prior to upstream kernel version v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e, Linux
      tracepoints are not available for unsigned kernel modules
      (tracepoints will get disabled due to the module's 'F' taint).
      Thus, one either has to sign the zfs kernel module prior to
      loading it, or use a kernel versioned v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e or
      newer.

Assuming the above two requirements are satisfied, lets look at an
example of how this patch can be used and what information it exposes
(all commands run as 'root'):

    # list all zfs tracepoints available

    $ ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/zfs
    enable              filter              zfs_arc__delete

    zfs_l2arc__miss     zfs_l2arc__read     zfs_l2arc__write
    zfs_new_state__mfu  zfs_new_state__mru

    # enable all zfs tracepoints, clear the tracepoint ring buffer

    $ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/zfs/enable
    $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

    # import zpool called 'tank', inspect tracepoint data (each line was
    # truncated, they're too long for a commit message otherwise)

To highlight the kind of detailed information that is being exported
using this infrastructure, I've taken the first tracepoint line from the
output above and reformatted it such that it fits in 80 columns:

    lt-zpool-30132 [003] .... 91344.200050: zfs_arc__miss:

            object 0
            level -1
            blkid 0
        }

For the specific tracepoint shown here, 'zfs_arc__miss', data is
exported detailing the arc_buf_hdr_t (hdr), blkptr_t (bp), and
zbookmark_t (zb) that caused the ARC miss (down to the exact DVA!).
This kind of precise and detailed information can be extremely valuable
when trying to answer certain kinds of questions.

For anybody unfamiliar but looking to build on this, I found the XFS
source code along with the following three web links to be extremely
helpful:

    * http://lwn.net/Articles/379903/
    * http://lwn.net/Articles/381064/
    * http://lwn.net/Articles/383362/

I should also node the more "boring" aspects of this patch:

    * The ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE autoconf macro was modified to
       support a sixth paramter. This parameter is used to populate the
       contents of the new conftest.h file. If no sixth parameter is
       provided, conftest.h will be empty.

    * The ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_HEADER autoconf macro was introduced.
      This macro is nearly identical to the ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE macro,
      except it has support for a fifth option that is then passed as
      the sixth parameter to ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE.

These autoconf changes were needed to test the availability of the Linux
tracepoint macros. Due to the odd nature of the Linux tracepoint macro
API, a separate ".h" must be created (the path and filename is used
internally by the kernel's define_trace.h file).

    * The HAVE_DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS autoconf macro was introduced. This
      is to determine if we can safely enable the Linux tracepoint
      functionality. We need to selectively disable the tracepoint code
      due to the kernel exporting certain functions as GPL only. Without
      this check, the build process will fail at link time.

In addition, the SET_ERROR macro was modified into a tracepoint as well.
To do this, the 'sdt.h' file was moved into the 'include/sys' directory
and now contains a userspace portion and a kernel space portion. The
dprintf and zfs_dbgmsg* interfaces are now implemented as tracepoint as
well.

Brian Behlendorf 8bbbe46f86 Remove global memory variables
Platforms such as Illumos and FreeBSD have historically provided
global variables which summerize the memory state of a system.
Linux on the otherhand doesn't expose any of this information
to kernel modules and uses entirely different mechanisms for
memory management.

In order to simplify the original ZFS port to Linux these global
variables were emulated by the SPL for the benefit of ZFS.  As ZoL
has matured over the years it has moved steadily away from these
interfaces and now no longer depends on them at all.

Therefore, this patch completely removes the global variables
availrmem, minfree, desfree, lotsfree, needfree, swapfs_minfree,
and swapfs_reserve.  This greatly simplifies the memory management
code and eliminates a common area of confusion.

However, it turns out that the only caller of this function in
ZFS uses it to determine the total virtual address space size.
This can be determined easily without get_vmalloc_info() so
vmem_size() has been updated to take this approach which allows
us to shed the get_vmalloc_info() dependency.

Brian Behlendorf 3a92530563 Update code to use misc_register()/misc_deregister()
When the SPL was originally written it was designed to use the
device_create() and device_destroy() functions.  Unfortunately,
these functions changed considerably over the years making them
difficult to rely on.

As it turns out a better choice would have been to use the
misc_register()/misc_deregister() functions.  This interface
for registering character devices has remained stable, is simple,
and provides everything we need.

Therefore the code has been reworked to use this interface.  The
higher level ZFS code has always depended on these same interfaces
so this is also as a step towards minimizing our kernel dependencies.

The former "wait_on_bit" interface required an 'action' function to

can be satisfied by one of just two functions: one which uses

Turbo Fredriksson c9b5cc8c00 Move the libraries into separate packages
From day one the various ZFS libraries should have been placed in their
own sub-packages.  Primarily this allows for multiple major versions of
the libraries to be concurrently installed.  It also facilitates a
smaller build environment by minimizing the required dependencies.

The specific changes required to split the libraries from the utilities
are as follows:

* libzpool2, libnvpair1, libuutil1, and libzfs2 packages were added
  and contain the versioned shared libraries.  The Fedora packaging
  guidelines discourage providing static libraries so they are not
  included in the packages.

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Packaging_Static_Libraries

* The zfs-devel package was renamed libzfs2-devel and the new package
  obsoletes the old zfs-devel package.   This package includes all
  the required headers for the libzpool2, libnvpair1, libuutil1, and
  libzfs2 libraries and their respective unversioned shared libraries.

  This package should eventually be split in to individual lib*-devel
  packages but it will still take some work to cleanly separate them.
  Therefore the libzfs2-devel package provides the expected lib*-devel
  packages so the all proper dependencies can still be created.

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Devel_Packages

* Moved '/sbin/ldconfig' execution from the zfs packge to each of the
  new library packages as described by the packaging guidelines.

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Shared_Libraries

* The /usr/share/doc/ files were moved in to the libzfs2-devel package.

* Updated config/deb.am to be aware of the packaging changes.  This
  ensures that 'deb-utils' make target converts all the resulting
  packages generated by the 'rpm-utils' target.

Brian Behlendorf a073aeb060 Add KMC_SLAB cache type
For small objects the Linux slab allocator has several advantages
over its counterpart in the SPL.  These include:

1) It is more memory-efficient and packs objects more tightly.
2) It is continually tuned to maximize performance.

Therefore it makes sense to layer the SPLs slab allocator on top
of the Linux slab allocator.  This allows us to leverage the
advantages above while preserving the Illumos semantics we depend
on.  However, there are some things we need to be careful of:

1) The Linux slab allocator was never designed to work well with
   large objects.  Because the SPL slab must still handle this use
   case a cut off limit was added to transition from Linux slab
   backed objects to kmem or vmem backed slabs.

   spl_kmem_cache_slab_limit - Objects less than or equal to this
   size in bytes will be backed by the Linux slab.  By default
   this value is zero which disables the Linux slab functionality.
   Reasonable values for this cut off limit are in the range of
   4096-16386 bytes.

   spl_kmem_cache_kmem_limit - Objects less than or equal to this
   size in bytes will be backed by a kmem slab.  Objects over this
   size will be vmem backed instead.  This value defaults to
   1/8 a page, or 512 bytes on an x86_64 architecture.

2) Be aware that using the Linux slab may inadvertently introduce
   new deadlocks.  Care has been taken previously to ensure that
   all allocations which occur in the write path use GFP_NOIO.
   However, there may be internal allocations performed in the
   Linux slab which do not honor these flags.  If this is the case
   a deadlock may occur.

The path forward is definitely to start relying on the Linux slab.
But for that to happen we need to start building confidence that
there aren't any unexpected surprises lurking for us.  And ideally
need to move completely away from using the SPLs slab for large
memory allocations.  This patch is a first step.

NOTES:
1) The KMC_NOMAGAZINE flag was leveraged to support the Linux slab
   backed caches but it is not supported for kmem/vmem backed caches.

2) Regardless of the spl_kmem_cache_*_limit settings a cache may
   be explicitly set to a given type by passed the KMC_KMEM,
   KMC_VMEM, or KMC_SLAB flags during cache creation.

3) The constructors, destructors, and reclaim callbacks are all
   functional and will be called regardless of the cache type.

4) KMC_SLAB caches will not appear in /proc/spl/kmem/slab due to
   the issues involved in presenting correct object accounting.
   Instead they will appear in /proc/slabinfo under the same names.

5) Several kmem SPLAT tests needed to be fixed because they relied
   incorrectly on internal kmem slab accounting.  With the updated
   test cases all the SPLAT tests pass as expected.

6) An autoconf test was added to ensure that the __GFP_COMP flag
   was correctly added to the default flags used when allocating
   a slab.  This is required to ensure all pages in higher order
   slabs are properly refcounted, see ae16ed9.

7) When using the SLUB allocator there is no need to attempt to
   set the __GFP_COMP flag.  This has been the default behavior
   for the SLUB since Linux 2.6.25.

8) When using the SLUB it may be desirable to set the slub_nomerge
   kernel parameter to prevent caches from being merged.

Chris Dunlap 518eba1492 Replace check for _POSIX_MEMLOCK w/ HAVE_MLOCKALL
zed supports a '-M' cmdline opt to lock all pages in memory via
mlockall().  The _POSIX_MEMLOCK define is checked to determine whether
this function is supported.  The current test assumes mlockall()
is supported if _POSIX_MEMLOCK is non-zero.  However, this test is
insufficient according to mlock(2) and sysconf(3).  If _POSIX_MEMLOCK
is -1, mlockall() is not supported; but if _POSIX_MEMLOCK is 0,
availability must be checked at runtime.

This commit adds an autoconf check for mlockall() to user.m4.  The zed
code block for mlockall() is now guarded with a test for HAVE_MLOCKALL.
If defined, mlockall() will be called and its runtime availability
checked via its return value.

  A corollary is that you should not use these variables except
  in makefiles. For instance, instead of trying to evaluate
  datadir in configure and hard-coding it in makefiles using e.g.,
  'AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([DATADIR], ["$datadir"], [Data directory.])',
  you should add -DDATADIR='$(datadir)' to your makefile's definition
  of CPPFLAGS (AM_CPPFLAGS if you are also using Automake).

The runstatedir directory is for "installing data files which the
programs modify while they run, that pertain to one specific machine,
and which need not persist longer than the execution of the program".

https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Directory-Variables.html

It will be defined by autoconf 2.70 or later, and default to
"$(localstatedir)/run".

Brian Behlendorf 0f62f3f9ab Disable GCCs aggressive loop optimization
GCC >+ 4.8's aggressive loop optimization breaks some of the iterators
over the dn_blkptr[] pseudo-array in dnode_phys. Since dn_blkptr[] is
defined as a single-element array, GCC believes an iterator can only
access index 0 and will unroll the loop into a single iteration.

One way to resolve the issue would be to cast the array to a pointer
and fix all the iterators that might break.  The only loop where it
is known to cause a problem is this loop in dmu_objset_write_ready():

    for (i = 0; i < dnp->dn_nblkptr; i++)
            bp->blk_fill += dnp->dn_blkptr[i].blk_fill;

In the common case where dn_nblkptr is 3, the loop is only executed a
single time and "i" is equal to 1 following the loop.

The specific breakage caused by this problem is that the blk_fill of
root block pointers wouldn't be set properly when more than one blkptr
is in use (when no indrect blocks are needed).

The simple reproducing sequence is:

zpool create tank /tank.img
zdb -ddddd tank 0

Notice that "fill=31", however, there are two L0 indirect blocks with
"F=31" and "F=5". The fill count should be 36 rather than 31. This
problem causes an assert to be hit in a simple "zdb tank" when built
with --enable-debug.

However, this approach was not taken because we need to be absolutely

Matthew Thode 11b9ec23b9 Add full SELinux support
Four new dataset properties have been added to support SELinux.  They
are 'context', 'fscontext', 'defcontext' and 'rootcontext' which map
directly to the context options described in mount(8).  When one of
these properties is set to something other than 'none'.  That string
will be passed verbatim as a mount option for the given context when
the filesystem is mounted.

For example, if you wanted the rootcontext for a filesystem to be set
to 'system_u:object_r:fs_t' you would set the property as follows:

  $ zfs set rootcontext="system_u:object_r:fs_t" storage-pool/media

This will ensure the filesystem is automatically mounted with that
rootcontext.  It is equivalent to manually specifying the rootcontext
with the -o option like this:

  $ zfs mount -o rootcontext=system_u:object_r:fs_t storage-pool/media

By default all four contexts are set to 'none'.  Further information
on SELinux contexts is detailed in mount(8) and selinux(8) man pages.

torvalds/linux@24f7c6 introduced a new shrinker API while

This patch adds support for the new shrinker API by wrapping

This change also reorganizes the autotools checks on the shrinker
API such that the configure script will fail early if an unknown
API is encountered in the future.

Ned Bass 184c687387 Emulate illumos interface cv_timedwait_hires()
Needed for Illumos #3582. This interface is supposed to support
a variable-resolution timeout with nanosecond granularity.  This
implementation rounds up to microsecond resolution, as nanosecond-
precision timing is rarely needed for real-world performance
tuning and may incur unnecessary busy-waiting.  usleep_range() is
used if available, otherwise udelay() or msleep() are used
depending on the length of the delay interval.

Add flags from sys/callo.h as these are used to control the behavior of
cv_timedwait_hires().  Specifically,

CALLOUT_FLAG_ABSOLUTE
    Normally, the expiration passed to the timeout API functions is
    an expiration interval. If this flag is specified, then it is
    interpreted as the expiration time itself.

CALLOUT_FLAG_ROUNDUP
    Roundup the expiration time to the next resolution boundary. If this
    flag is not specified, the expiration time is rounded down.

Massimo Maggi 023699cd62 Posix ACL Support
This change adds support for Posix ACLs by storing them as an xattr
which is common practice for many Linux file systems.  Since the
Posix ACL is stored as an xattr it will not overwrite any existing
ZFS/NFSv4 ACLs which may have been set.  The Posix ACL will also
be non-functional on other platforms although it may be visible
as an xattr if that platform understands SA based xattrs.

By default Posix ACLs are disabled but they may be enabled with
the new 'aclmode=noacl|posixacl' property.  Set the property to
'posixacl' to enable them.  If ZFS/NFSv4 ACL support is ever added
an appropriate acltype will be added.

This change passes the POSIX Test Suite cleanly with the exception
of xacl/00.t test 45 which is incorrect for Linux (Ext4 fails too).

Richard Yao 1db7b9be75 Fix libblkid support
libblkid support is dormant because the autotools check is broken and
liblkid identifies ZFS vdevs as "zfs_member", not "zfs". We fix that
with a few changes:

First, we fix the libblkid autotools check to do a few things:

1. Make a 64MB file, which is the minimum size ZFS permits.
2. Make 4 fake uberblock entries to make libblkid's check succeed.
3. Return 0 upon success to make autotools use the success case.
4. Include stdlib.h to avoid implicit declration of free().
5. Check for "zfs_member", not "zfs"
6. Make --with-blkid disable autotools check (avoids Gentoo sandbox violation)
7. Pass '-lblkid' correctly using LIBS not LDFLAGS.

Second, we change the libblkid support to scan for "zfs_member", not
"zfs".

This makes --with-blkid work on Gentoo.

Richard Yao 0f37d0c8be Linux 3.11 compat: fops->iterate()
Commit torvalds/linux@2233f31aad
replaced ->readdir() with ->iterate() in struct file_operations.
All filesystems must now use the new ->iterate method.

To handle this the code was reworked to use the new ->iterate
interface.  Care was taken to keep the majority of changes
confined to the ZPL layer which is already Linux specific.
However, minor changes were required to the common zfs_readdir()
function.

Compatibility with older kernels was accomplished by adding
versions of the trivial dir_emit* helper functions.  Also the
various *_readdir() functions were reworked in to wrappers
which create a dir_context structure to pass to the new
*_iterate() functions.

Unfortunately, the new dir_emit* functions prevent us from
passing a private pointer to the filldir function.  The xattr
directory code leveraged this ability through zfs_readdir()
to generate the list of xattr names.  Since we can no longer
use zfs_readdir() a simplified zpl_xattr_readdir() function
was added to perform the same task.

When CONFIG_UIDGID_STRICT_TYPE_CHECKS is enabled uid_t/git_t are
replaced by kuid_t/kgid_t, which are structures instead of integral
types. This causes any code that uses an integral type to fail to build.
The User Namespace functionality introduced in Linux 3.8 requires
CONFIG_UIDGID_STRICT_TYPE_CHECKS, so we could not build against any
kernel that supported it.

We resolve this by converting between the new kuid_t/kgid_t structures

Brian Behlendorf dba1d70566 Fix arc_adapt() spinning in iterate_supers_type()
The iterate_supers_type() function which was introduced in the
3.0 kernel was supposed to provide a safe way to call an arbitrary
function on all super blocks of a specific type.  Unfortunately,
because a list_head was used a bug was introduced which made it
possible for iterate_supers_type() to get stuck spinning on a
super block which was just deactivated.

This can occur because when the list head is removed from the
fs_supers list it is reinitialized to point to itself.  If the
iterate_supers_type() function happened to be processing the
removed list_head it will get stuck spinning on that list_head.

The bug was fixed in the 3.3 kernel by converting the list_head
to an hlist_node.  However, to resolve the issue for existing
3.0 - 3.2 kernels we detect when a list_head is used.  Then to
prevent the spinning from occurring the .next pointer is set to
the fs_supers list_head which ensures the iterate_supers_type()
function will always terminate.

The approach taken was the rework zfs_holey() as little as
possible and then just wrap the code as needed to ensure
correct locking and error handling.

Tested with xfstests 285 and 286.  All tests pass except for
7-9 of 285 which try to reserve blocks first via fallocate(2)
and fail because fallocate(2) is not yet supported.

Note that the filp->f_lock spinlock did not exist prior to
Linux 2.6.30, but we avoid the need for autotools check by
virtue of the fact that SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE support was not
added until Linux 3.1.

An autoconf check was added for lseek_execute() which is
currently a private function but the expectation is that it
will be exported perhaps as early as Linux 3.11.

Otherwise the configure script will abort because the spl_config.h

Brian Behlendorf 9b2af9a097 Configure --with-spl{-obj} auto-detect cleanup
Because the install location for the spl/zfs-devel headers was
changed we need to refresh the auto-detect code.  Note that
for packaging which already explicitly calls --with-spl{-obj}
nothing has changed.

The updated code is now structured like that in ZFS_AC_KERNEL
and should be cleaner and easier to maintain.  In addition,
it's stricter about detecting a valid source and object
directory.  It requires:

* The source directory contains the file 'spl.release'
* The object directory contains the file 'spl_config.h'
* The following paths will be checked.  Notice the /var/lib/
  and /usr/src paths require that the spl and zfs version be
  matched.  This is done to prevent accidentally mixing releases.

        dnl # 1) /var/lib/dkms/spl/<version>/build
        dnl # 2) /usr/src/spl-<version>/<kernel-version>
        dnl # 3) /usr/src/spl-<version>

Richard Yao c38367c73f Eliminate runtime function pointer mods in autotools checks
PaX/GrSecurity patched kernels implement a dialect of C that relies on a
GCC plugin for enforcement. A basic idea in this dialect is that
function pointers in structures should not change during runtime.
This causes code that modifies function pointers at runtime to fail to
compile in many instances. The autotools checks rely on whether or
not small test cases compile against a given kernel. Some
autotools checks assume some default case if other cases fail. When one
of these autotools checks tests a PaX/GrSecurity patched kernel by
modifying a function pointer at runtime, the default case will be used.

Early detection of such situations is possible by relying on compiler
warnings, which are compiler errors when --enable-debug is used.
Unfortunately, very few people build ZFS with --enable-debug. The more
common situation is that these issues manifest themselves as runtime
failures in the form of NULL pointer exceptions.

Previous patches that addressed such issues with PaX/GrSecurity
compatibility largely relied on rewriting autotools checks to avoid
runtime function pointer modification or the addition of PaX/GrSecurity
specific checks. This patch takes the previous work to its logical
conclusion by eliminating the use of runtime function pointer
modification. This permits the removal of PaX-specific autotools checks
in favor of ones that work across all supported kernels.

This should resolve issues that were reported to occur with
PaX/GrSecurity-patched Linux 3.7.5 kernels on Gentoo Linux.

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457176

We should be able to prevent future regressions in PaX/GrSecurity
compatibility by ensuring that all changes to ZFSOnLinux avoid runtime
function pointer modification. At the same time, this does not solve the
issue of silent failures triggering default cases in the autotools
check, which is what permitted these regressions to become runtime
failures in the first place. This will need to be addressed in a future
patch.

Etienne Dechamps d9b0ebbe82 Remove the bio_empty_barrier() check.
To determine whether the kernel is capable of handling empty barrier
BIOs, we check for the presence of the bio_empty_barrier() macro,
which was introduced in 2.6.24. If this macro is defined, then we can
flush disk vdevs; if it isn't, then flushing is disabled.

Unfortunately, the bio_empty_barrier() macro was removed in 2.6.37,
even though the kernel is still capable of handling empty barrier BIOs.

As a result, flushing is effectively disabled on kernels >= 2.6.37,
meaning that starting from this kernel version, zfs doesn't use
barriers to guarantee on-disk data consistency. This is quite bad and
can lead to potential data corruption on power failures.

This patch fixes the issue by removing the configure check for
bio_empty_barrier(), as we don't support kernels <= 2.6.24 anymore.

Brian Behlendorf dd3678fc29 Fix atomic64_* autoconf checks
The SPL_AC_ATOMIC_SPINLOCK, SPL_AC_TYPE_ATOMIC64_CMPXCHG, and
SPL_AC_TYPE_ATOMIC64_XCHG were all directly including the
'asm/atomic.h' header.  As of Linux 3.4 this header was removed
which results in a build failure.

The right thing to do is include 'linux/atomic.h' however we
can't safely do this because it doesn't exist in 2.6.26 kernels.
Therefore, we include 'linux/fs.h' which in turn includes the
correct atomic header regardless of the kernel version.

When these incorrect APIs are used in ZFS the following build
failure results.

  arc.c:791:80: warning: '__ret' may be used uninitialized
  in this function [-Wuninitialized]
  arc.c:791:1875: error: call to '__cmpxchg_wrong_size'

Since this is all Linux 2.6.24 compatibility code there's

Brian Behlendorf 2b7ab9d4d9 Linux 2.6.26 compat, lookup_bdev()
It's doubtful many people were impacted by this but commit 6c28567
accidentally broke ZFS builds for 2.6.26 and earlier kernels.  This
commit depends on the lookup_bdev() function which exists in 2.6.26
but wasn't exported until 2.6.27.

The availability of the function isn't critical so a wrapper is
introduced which returns ERR_PTR(-ENOTSUP) when the function isn't
defined.  This will have the effect of causing zvol_is_zvol() to
always fail for 2.6.26 kernels.  This in turn means vdevs will
always get opened concurrently which is good for normal usage.
This will only become an issue if your using a zvol as a vdev in
another pool.  In which case you really should be using a newer
kernel anyway.

Ned Bass f1a05fa114 Fix false ENOENT on snapshot control dentries
Lookups in the snapshot control directory for an existing snapshot
fail with ENOENT if an earlier lookup failed before the snapshot was
created.  This is because the earlier lookup causes a negative dentry
to be cached which is never invalidated.

The bug can be reproduced as follows (the second ls should succeed):

 $ ls /tank/.zfs/snapshot/s
 ls: cannot access /tank/.zfs/snapshot/s: No such file or directory
 $ zfs snap tank@s
 $ ls /tank/.zfs/snapshot/s
 ls: cannot access /tank/.zfs/snapshot/s: No such file or directory

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.

The kern_path_parent() function was removed from Linux 3.6 because
it was observed that all the callers just want the parent dentry.
The simpler kern_path_locked() function replaces kern_path_parent()
and does the lookup while holding the ->i_mutex lock.

This is good news for the vn implementation because it removes the
need for us to handle the locking.  However, it makes it harder to
implement a single readable vn_remove()/vn_rename() function which
is usually what we prefer.

Therefore, we implement a new version of vn_remove()/vn_rename()
for Linux 3.6 and newer kernels.  This allows us to leave the
existing working implementation untouched, and to add a simpler
version for newer kernels.

Long term I would very much like to see all of the vn code removed
since what this code enabled is generally frowned upon in the kernel.

Etienne Dechamps bbdc6ae495 Add interface for file hole punching.
This adds an interface to "punch holes" (deallocate space) in VFS
files. The interface is identical to the Solaris VOP_SPACE interface.
This interface is necessary for TRIM support on file vdevs.

This is implemented using Linux fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE), which
was introduced in 2.6.38. For a brief time before 2.6.38 this was done
using the truncate_range inode operation, which was quickly deprecated.
This patch only supports FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE.

This adds support for the truncate_range() inode operation to
VOP_SPACE() for file hole punching. This API is deprecated and removed
in 3.5, so it's only useful for old kernels.

On tmpfs, the truncate_range() inode operation translates to
shmem_truncate_range(). Unfortunately, this function expects the end
offset to be inclusive and aligned to the end of a page. If it is not,
the kernel will stop with a BUG_ON().

This patch fixes the issue by adapting to the constraints set forth by
shmem_truncate_range().

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.

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.

Etienne Dechamps 723aa3b0c2 When checking for symbol exports, try compiling.
This patch adds a new autoconf function: SPL_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL.
This new function does the following:

 - Call LINUX_TRY_COMPILE with the specified parameters.
 - If unsuccessful, return false.
 - If successful and we're configuring with --enable-linux-builtin,
   return true.
 - Else, call CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT with the specified parameters and
   return the result.

All calls to CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT are converted to
LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL so that the tests work even when configuring
for builtin on a kernel which doesn't have loadable module support, or
hasn't been built yet.

The only exception are:

 - AC_GET_VMALLOC_INFO, because we don't even have a public header to
include in the test case, but that's okay considering this symbol can
be ignored just fine.

- SPL_AC_DEVICE_CREATE, which is legacy API for 2.6.18 kernels.  Since
kernels this old are no longer supported it should arguably just be
removed entirely from the build system.

Note that we're also checking for the correct prototype with an actual
call, which was not the case with CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT. However, for
"complicated" test cases like with multiple symbol versions (e.g.
vfs_fsync), we stick with the original behavior and only check for the
function's existence.

Currently, when building a test case, we're compiling an entire Linux
module from beginning to end. This includes the MODPOST stage, which

This poses a problem when configuring for built-in on kernels which have

referencing disabled code, resulting in a compilation failure, thus
breaking the tests.

This patch fixes the issue by faking the modpost stage when the

modpost command to be /bin/true, and using an empty conftest.mod.c file.
The test module still compiles fine, although the result isn't loadable,

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

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.

Brian Behlendorf 1c5de20ae2 Add --enable-debug-dmu-tx configure option
Allow rigorous (and expensive) tx validation to be enabled/disabled
indepentantly from the standard zfs debugging.  When enabled these
checks ensure that all txs are constructed properly and that a dbuf
is never dirtied without taking the correct tx hold.

This checking is particularly helpful when adding new dmu consumers
like Lustre.  However, for established consumers such as the zpl
with no known outstanding tx construction problems this is just
overhead.

--enable-debug-dmu-tx  - Enable/disable validation of each tx as
--disable-debug-dmu-tx   it is constructed.  By default validation
                         is disabled due to performance concerns.

Brian Behlendorf ebe7e575ea Add .zfs control directory
Add support for the .zfs control directory.  This was accomplished
by leveraging as much of the existing ZFS infrastructure as posible
and updating it for Linux as required.  The bulk of the core
functionality is now all there with the following limitations.

*) The .zfs/snapshot directory automount support requires a 2.6.37
   or newer kernel.  The exception is RHEL6.2 which has backported
   the d_automount patches.

*) Creating/destroying/renaming snapshots with mkdir/rmdir/mv
   in the .zfs/snapshot directory works as expected.  However,
   this functionality is only available to root until zfs
   delegations are finished.

      * mkdir - create a snapshot
      * rmdir - destroy a snapshot
      * mv    - rename a snapshot

The following issues are known defeciences, but we expect them to
be addressed by future commits.

*) Add automount support for kernels older the 2.6.37.  This should
   be possible using follow_link() which is what Linux did before.

*) Accessing the .zfs/snapshot directory via NFS is not yet possible.
   The majority of the ground work for this is complete.  However,
   finishing this work will require resolving some lingering
   integration issues with the Linux NFS kernel server.

*) The .zfs/shares directory exists but no futher smb functionality
   has yet been implemented.

Etienne Dechamps 30930fba21 Add support for DISCARD to ZVOLs.
DISCARD (REQ_DISCARD, BLKDISCARD) is useful for thin provisioning.
It allows ZVOL clients to discard (unmap, trim) block ranges from
a ZVOL, thus optimizing disk space usage by allowing a ZVOL to
shrink instead of just grow.

We can't use zfs_space() or zfs_freesp() here, since these functions
only work on regular files, not volumes. Fortunately we can use the
low-level function dmu_free_long_range() which does exactly what we
want.

Currently the discard operation is not added to the log. That's not
a big deal since losing discard requests cannot result in data
corruption. It would however result in disk space usage higher than
it should be. Thus adding log support to zvol_discard() is probably
a good idea for a future improvement.

Etienne Dechamps 34037afe24 Improve ZVOL queue behavior.
The Linux block device queue subsystem exposes a number of configurable
settings described in Linux block/blk-settings.c. The defaults for these
settings are tuned for hard drives, and are not optimized for ZVOLs. Proper
configuration of these options would allow upper layers (I/O scheduler) to
take better decisions about write merging and ordering.

Detailed rationale:

 - max_hw_sectors is set to unlimited (UINT_MAX). zvol_write() is able to
   handle writes of any size, so there's no reason to impose a limit. Let the
   upper layer decide.

 - max_segments and max_segment_size are set to unlimited. zvol_write() will
   copy the requests' contents into a dbuf anyway, so the number and size of
   the segments are irrelevant. Let the upper layer decide.

 - physical_block_size and io_opt are set to the ZVOL's block size. This
   has the potential to somewhat alleviate issue #361 for ZVOLs, by warning
   the upper layers that writes smaller than the volume's block size will be
   slow.

 - The NONROT flag is set to indicate this isn't a rotational device.
   Although the backing zpool might be composed of rotational devices, the
   resulting ZVOL often doesn't exhibit the same behavior due to the COW
   mechanisms used by ZFS. Setting this flag will prevent upper layers from
   making useless decisions (such as reordering writes) based on incorrect
   assumptions about the behavior of the ZVOL.

Etienne Dechamps b18019d2d8 Fix synchronicity for ZVOLs.
zvol_write() assumes that the write request must be written to stable storage
if rq_is_sync() is true. Unfortunately, this assumption is incorrect. Indeed,
"sync" does *not* mean what we think it means in the context of the Linux
block layer. This is well explained in linux/fs.h:

    WRITE:       A normal async write. Device will be plugged.
    WRITE_SYNC:  Synchronous write. Identical to WRITE, but passes down
                 the hint that someone will be waiting on this IO
                 shortly.
    WRITE_FLUSH: Like WRITE_SYNC but with preceding cache flush.
    WRITE_FUA:   Like WRITE_SYNC but data is guaranteed to be on
                 non-volatile media on completion.

In other words, SYNC does not *mean* that the write must be on stable storage
on completion. It just means that someone is waiting on us to complete the
write request. Thus triggering a ZIL commit for each SYNC write request on a
ZVOL is unnecessary and harmful for performance. To make matters worse, ZVOL
users have no way to express that they actually want data to be written to
stable storage, which means the ZIL is broken for ZVOLs.

The request for stable storage is expressed by the FUA flag, so we must
commit the ZIL after the write if the FUA flag is set. In addition, we must
commit the ZIL before the write if the FLUSH flag is set.

Also, we must inform the block layer that we actually support FLUSH and FUA.

Brian Behlendorf 4b2220f0b9 Add --enable-debug-log configure option
Until now the notion of an internal debug logging infrastructure
was conflated with enabling ASSERT()s.  This patch clarifies things
by cleanly breaking the two subsystem apart.  The result of this
is the following behavior.

--enable-debug      - Enable/disable code wrapped in ASSERT()s.
--disable-debug       ASSERT()s are used to check invariants and
                      are never required for correct operation.
                      They are disabled by default because they
                      may impact performance.

--enable-debug-log  - Enable/disable the debug log infrastructure.
--disable-debug-log   This infrastructure allows the spl code and
                      its consumer to log messages to an in-kernel
                      log.  The granularity of the logging can be
                      controlled by a debug mask.  By default the
                      mask disables most debug messages resulting
                      in a negligible performance impact.  Because

Brian Behlendorf ab26409db7 Linux 3.1 compat, super_block->s_shrink
The Linux 3.1 kernel has introduced the concept of per-filesystem
shrinkers which are directly assoicated with a super block.  Prior
to this change there was one shared global shrinker.

The zfs code relied on being able to call the global shrinker when
the arc_meta_limit was exceeded.  This would cause the VFS to drop
references on a fraction of the dentries in the dcache.  The ARC
could then safely reclaim the memory used by these entries and
honor the arc_meta_limit.  Unfortunately, when per-filesystem
shrinkers were added the old interfaces were made unavailable.

This change adds support to use the new per-filesystem shrinker
interface so we can continue to honor the arc_meta_limit.  The
major benefit of the new interface is that we can now target
only the zfs filesystem for dentry and inode pruning.  Thus we
can minimize any impact on the caching of other filesystems.

In the context of making this change several other important
issues related to managing the ARC were addressed, they include:

* The dnlc_reduce_cache() function which was called by the ARC
to drop dentries for the Posix layer was replaced with a generic
zfs_prune_t callback.  The ZPL layer now registers a callback to
drop these dentries removing a layering violation which dates
back to the Solaris code.  This callback can also be used by
other ARC consumers such as Lustre.

  arc_add_prune_callback()
  arc_remove_prune_callback()

* The arc_reduce_dnlc_percent module option has been changed to
arc_meta_prune for clarity.  The dnlc functions are specific to
Solaris's VFS and have already been largely eliminated already.
The replacement tunable now represents the number of bytes the
prune callback will request when invoked.

* Less aggressively invoke the prune callback.  We used to call
this whenever we exceeded the arc_meta_limit however that's not
strictly correct since it results in over zeleous reclaim of
dentries and inodes.  It is now only called once the arc_meta_limit
is exceeded and every effort has been made to evict other data from
the ARC cache.

* More promptly manage exceeding the arc_meta_limit.  When reading
meta data in to the cache if a buffer was unable to be recycled
notify the arc_reclaim thread to invoke the required prune.

* Added arcstat_prune kstat which is incremented when the ARC
is forced to request that a consumer prune its cache.  Remember
this will only occur when the ARC has no other choice.  If it
can evict buffers safely without invoking the prune callback
it will.

* This change is also expected to resolve the unexpect collapses
of the ARC cache.  This would occur because when exceeded just the
arc_meta_limit reclaim presure would be excerted on the arc_c
value via arc_shrink().  This effectively shrunk the entire cache
when really we just needed to reclaim meta data.

Brian Behlendorf 5547c2f1bf Simplify BDI integration
Update the code to use the bdi_setup_and_register() helper to
simplify the bdi integration code.  The updated code now just
registers the bdi during mount and destroys it during unmount.

The only complication is that for 2.6.32 - 2.6.33 kernels the
helper wasn't available so in these cases the zfs code must
provide it.  Luckily the bdi_setup_and_register() function
is trivial.

Older versions of gcc (gcc-4.1.2) will treat an 'incompatible

in HAVE_FS_STRUCT_SPINLOCK being defined incorrectly.  This

This change moves the default install location for the zfs udev
rules from /etc/udev/ to /lib/udev/.  The correct convention is
for rules provided by a package to be installed in /lib/udev/.
The /etc/udev/ directory is reserved for custom rules or local

Brian Behlendorf 76659dc110 Add backing_device_info per-filesystem
For a long time now the kernel has been moving away from using the
pdflush daemon to write 'old' dirty pages to disk.  The primary reason
for this is because the pdflush daemon is single threaded and can be
a limiting factor for performance.  Since pdflush sequentially walks
the dirty inode list for each super block any delay in processing can
slow down dirty page writeback for all filesystems.

The replacement for pdflush is called bdi (backing device info).  The
bdi system involves creating a per-filesystem control structure each
with its own private sets of queues to manage writeback.  The advantage
is greater parallelism which improves performance and prevents a single
filesystem from slowing writeback to the others.

For a long time both systems co-existed in the kernel so it wasn't
strictly required to implement the bdi scheme.  However, as of
Linux 2.6.36 kernels the pdflush functionality has been retired.

Since ZFS already bypasses the page cache for most I/O this is only
an issue for mmap(2) writes which must go through the page cache.
Even then adding this missing support for newer kernels was overlooked
because there are other mechanisms which can trigger writeback.

However, there is one critical case where not implementing the bdi
functionality can cause problems.  If an application handles a page
fault it can enter the balance_dirty_pages() callpath.  This will
result in the application hanging until the number of dirty pages in
the system drops below the dirty ratio.

Without a registered backing_device_info for the filesystem the
dirty pages will not get written out.  Thus the application will hang.
As mentioned above this was less of an issue with older kernels because
pdflush would eventually write out the dirty pages.

This change adds a backing_device_info structure to the zfs_sb_t
which is already allocated per-super block.  It is then registered
when the filesystem mounted and unregistered on unmount.  It will
not be registered for mounted snapshots which are read-only.  This
change will result in flush-<pool> thread being dynamically created
and destroyed per-mounted filesystem for writeback.

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.

a basic init script is needed.  Unfortunately, every distribution
has their own idea of the _right_ way to do things.  Rather than

The correct init script for your distribution will be selected

During 'make install' the correct script for your system will
be installed from zfs/etc/init.d/zfs.DEFAULT_INIT_SCRIPT to the
usual /etc/init.d/zfs location.

Currently, there is zfs.fedora and a more generic zfs.lsb init
script.  Hopefully, the distribution maintainers who know best
how they want their init scripts to function will feedback their
approved versions to be included in the project.

This change does not consider upstart jobs but I'm not at all

more generic blkdev_get_by_path() function.  Additionally, the
counterpart function close_bdev_exclusive() has been replaced by
blkdev_put().  Because these functions are more generic versions
of the functions they replaced the compatibility macro must add
the FMODE_EXCL mask to ensure they are exclusive.

Closes #114

Brian Behlendorf 2c395def27 Linux 2.6.36 compat, sops->evict_inode()
The new prefered inteface for evicting an inode from the inode cache
is the ->evict_inode() callback.  It replaces both the ->delete_inode()
and ->clear_inode() callbacks which were previously used for this.

Brian Behlendorf f9637c6c8b Linux 2.6.33 compat, get/set xattr callbacks
The xattr handler prototypes were sanitized with the idea being that
the same handlers could be used for multiple methods.  The result of
this was the inode type was changes to a dentry, and both the get()
and set() hooks had a handler_flags argument added.  The list()
callback was similiarly effected but no autoconf check was added
because we do not use the list() callback.

Brian Behlendorf 7268e1bec8 Linux 2.6.35 compat, fops->fsync()
The fsync() callback in the file_operations structure used to take
3 arguments.  The callback now only takes 2 arguments because the
dentry argument was determined to be unused by all consumers.  To
handle this a compatibility prototype was added to ensure the right
prototype is used.  Our implementation never used the dentry argument
either so it's just a matter of using the right prototype.

Brian Behlendorf 777d4af891 Linux 2.6.35 compat, const struct xattr_handler
The const keyword was added to the 'struct xattr_handler' in the
generic Linux super_block structure.  To handle this we define an
appropriate xattr_handler_t typedef which can be used.  This was
the preferred solution because it keeps the code clean and readable.

Preferentially use the /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/source and
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build links.  Only if neither of these
links exist fallback to alternate methods for deducing which
kernel to build with.  This resolves the need to manually
specify --with-linux= and --with-linux-obj= on Debian systems.

Brian Behlendorf c5d915f423 Minimal libshare infrastructure
ZFS even under Solaris does not strictly require libshare to be
available.  The current implementation attempts to dlopen() the
library to access the needed symbols.  If this fails libshare
support is simply disabled.

This means that on Linux we only need the most minimal libshare
implementation.  In fact just enough to prevent the build from
failing.  Longer term we can decide if we want to implement a
libshare library like Solaris.  At best this would be an abstraction
layer between ZFS and NFS/SMB.  Alternately, we can drop libshare
entirely and directly integrate ZFS with Linux's NFS/SMB.

Finally the bare bones user-libshare.m4 test was dropped.  If we
do decide to implement libshare at some point it will surely be
as part of this package so the check is not needed.

Brian Behlendorf b3259b6a2b Autoconf selinux support
If libselinux is detected on your system at configure time link
against it.  This allows us to use a library call to detect if
selinux is enabled and if it is to pass the mount option:

  "context=\"system_u:object_r:file_t:s0"

For now this is required because none of the existing selinux
policies are aware of the zfs filesystem type.  Because of this
they do not properly enable xattr based labeling even though
zfs supports all of the required hooks.

Until distro's add zfs as a known xattr friendly fs type we
must use mntpoint labeling.  Alternately, end users could modify
their existing selinux policy with a little guidance.

Brian Behlendorf 675de5aa37 Linux 2.6.36 compat, synchronous bio flag
The name of the flag used to mark a bio as synchronous has changed
again in the 2.6.36 kernel due to the unification of the BIO_RW_*
and REQ_* flags.  The new flag is called REQ_SYNC.  To simplify
checking this flag I have introduced the vdev_disk_dio_is_sync()
helper function.  Based on the results of several new autoconf
tests it uses the correct mask to check for a synchronous bio.

Preferred interface for flagging a synchronous bio:
  2.6.12-2.6.29: BIO_RW_SYNC
  2.6.30-2.6.35: BIO_RW_SYNCIO
  2.6.36-2.6.xx: REQ_SYNC

Brian Behlendorf f4af6bb783 Linux 2.6.36 compat, use REQ_FAILFAST_MASK
As of linux-2.6.36 the BIO_RW_FAILFAST and REQ_FAILFAST flags
have been unified under the REQ_* names.  These flags always had
to be kept in-sync so this is a nice step forward, unfortunately
it means we need to be careful to only use the new unified flags
when the BIO_RW_* flags are not defined.  Additional autoconf
checks were added for this and if it is ever unclear which method
to use no flags are set.  This is safe but may result in longer
delays before a disk is failed.

Perferred interface for setting FAILFAST on a bio:
  2.6.12-2.6.27: BIO_RW_FAILFAST
  2.6.28-2.6.35: BIO_RW_FAILFAST_{DEV|TRANSPORT|DRIVER}
  2.6.36-2.6.xx: REQ_FAILFAST_{DEV|TRANSPORT|DRIVER}

Brian Behlendorf 9b2048c26b Linux 2.6.36 compat, fs_struct->lock type change
In the linux-2.6.36 kernel the fs_struct lock was changed from a
rwlock_t to a spinlock_t.  If the kernel would export the set_fs_pwd()
symbol by default this would not have caused us any issues, but they
don't.  So we're forced to add a new autoconf check which sets the
HAVE_FS_STRUCT_SPINLOCK define when a spinlock_t is used.  We can
then correctly use either spin_lock or write_lock in our custom
set_fs_pwd() implementation.

Brian Behlendorf 23aa63cbf5 Fix 2.6.35 shrinker callback API change
As of linux-2.6.35 the shrinker callback API now takes an additional
argument.  The shrinker struct is passed to the callback so that users
can embed the shrinker structure in private data and use container_of()
to access it.  This removes the need to always use global state for the
shrinker.

To handle this we add the SPL_AC_3ARGS_SHRINKER_CALLBACK autoconf
check to properly detect the API.  Then we simply setup a callback
function with the correct number of arguments.  For now we do not make
use of the new 3rd argument.

Brian Behlendorf 2959d94a0a Add FAILFAST support
ZFS works best when it is notified as soon as possible when a device
failure occurs.  This allows it to immediately start any recovery
actions which may be needed.  In theory Linux supports a flag which
can be set on bio's called FAILFAST which provides this quick
notification by disabling the retry logic in the lower scsi layers.

That's the theory at least.  In practice is turns out that while the
flag exists you oddly have to set it with the BIO_RW_AHEAD flag.
And even when it's set it you may get retries in the low level
drivers decides that's the right behavior, or if you don't get the
right error codes reported to the scsi midlayer.

Unfortunately, without additional kernels patchs there's not much
which can be done to improve this.  Basically, this just means that
it may take 2-3 minutes before a ZFS is notified properly that a
device has failed.  This can be improved and I suspect I'll be
submitting patches upstream to handle this.

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.
