Richard Yao a5778ea242 zdb: Introduce -V for verbatim import
When given a pool name via -e, zdb would attempt an import. If it
failed, then it would attempt a verbatim import. This behavior is
not always desirable so a -V switch is added to zdb to control the
behavior. When specified, a verbatim import is done. Otherwise,
the behavior is as it was previously, except no verbatim import
is done on failure.

Chris Dunlap 9e246ac3d8 Initial implementation of zed (ZFS Event Daemon)
zed monitors ZFS events.  When a zevent is posted, zed will run any
scripts that have been enabled for the corresponding zevent class.
Multiple scripts may be invoked for a given zevent.  The zevent
nvpairs are passed to the scripts as environment variables.

Events are processed synchronously by the single thread, and there is
no maximum timeout for script execution.  Consequently, a misbehaving
script can delay (or forever block) the processing of subsequent
zevents.  Plans are to address this in future commits.

Initial scripts have been developed to log events to syslog
and send email in response to checksum/data/io errors and
resilver.finish/scrub.finish events.  By default, email will only
be sent if the ZED_EMAIL variable is configured in zed.rc (which is
serving as a config file of sorts until a proper configuration file
is implemented).

Richard Yao 26b42f3f9d Implement -t option to zpool import for temporary pool names
Originally, users had to handle spa namespace collisions by either
exporting the already imported pool or by specifying a new name for the
pool with a conflicting name. In the case of root pools from virtual
guests, neither approach to collision resolution is reasonable. This is
addressed by extending the new name syntax with a -t option to specify
that the new name is temporary. When specified, this sets an internal
flag that is passed into the kernel to tell it that all label updates
should refer to the name used in the original label. Consequently, the
original pool name will be retained on export.

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.

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).

Porting notes:

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

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

  $ zfs list
  no datasets available

Add zvol minor device creation to the new zfs_snapshot_nvl function.

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

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

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

Apply a few spa_writeable() changes that were made to Illumos in

The vdev_file.c implementation in this patch diverges significantly
from the upstream version.  For consistenty with the vdev_disk.c
code the upstream version leverages the Illumos bio interfaces.
This makes sense for Illumos but not for ZoL for two reasons.

1) The vdev_disk.c code in ZoL has been rewritten to use the
   Linux block device interfaces which differ significantly
   from those in Illumos.  Therefore, updating the vdev_file.c
   to use the Illumos interfaces doesn't get you consistency
   with vdev_disk.c.

2) Using the upstream patch as is would requiring implementing
   compatibility code for those Solaris block device interfaces
   in user and kernel space.  That additional complexity could
   lead to confusion and doesn't buy us anything.

For these reasons I've opted to simply move the existing vn_rdwr()
as is in to the taskq function.  This has the advantage of being
low risk and easy to understand.  Moving the vn_rdwr() function
in to its own taskq thread also neatly avoids the possibility of
a stack overflow.

Finally, because of the additional work which is being handled by
the free taskq the number of threads has been increased.  The
thread count under Illumos defaults to 100 but was decreased to 2
in commit 08d08e due to contention.  We increase it to 8 until
the contention can be address by porting Illumos #3581.

Eric Dillmann 0b4d1b5853 Add snapdev=[hidden|visible] dataset property
The new snapdev dataset property may be set to control the
visibility of zvol snapshot devices.  By default this value
is set to 'hidden' which will prevent zvol snapshots from
appearing under /dev/zvol/ and /dev/<dataset>/.  When set to
'visible' all zvol snapshots for the dataset will be visible.

This functionality was largely added because when automatic
snapshoting is enabled large numbers of read-only zvol snapshots
will be created.  When creating these devices the kernel will
attempt to read their partition tables, and blkid will attempt
to identify any filesystems on those partitions.  This leads
to a variety of issues:

1) The zvol partition tables will be read in the context of
   the `modprobe zfs` for automatically imported pools.  This
   is undesirable and should be done asynchronously, but for
   now reducing the number of visible devices helps.

2) Udev expects to be able to complete its work for a new
   block devices fairly quickly.  When many zvol devices are
   added at the same time this is no longer be true.  It can
   lead to udev timeouts and missing /dev/zvol links.

3) Simply having lots of devices in /dev/ can be aukward from
   a management standpoint.  Hidding the devices your unlikely
   to ever use helps with this.  Any snapshot device which is
   needed can be made visible by changing the snapdev property.

NOTE: This patch changes the default behavior for zvols which
      was effectively 'snapdev=visible'.

  http://wiki.illumos.org/display/illumos/LZ4+Compression+In+ZFS

This patch has been slightly modified from the upstream Illumos
version to be compatible with Linux.  Due to the very limited
stack space in the kernel a lz4 workspace kmem cache is used.
Since we are using gcc we are also able to take advantage of the
gcc optimized __builtin_ctz functions.

Support for GRUB has been dropped from this patch.  That code
is available but those changes will need to made to the upstream
GRUB package.

Lastly, several hunks of dead code were dropped for clarity.  They
include the functions real_LZ4_uncompress(), LZ4_compressBound()
and the Visual Studio specific hunks wrapped in _MSC_VER.

Ned Bass 2957f38d78 vdev_id support for device link aliases
Add a vdev_id feature to map device names based on already defined
udev device links.  To increase the odds that vdev_id will run after
the rules it depends on, increase the vdev.rules rule number from 60
to 69.  With this change, vdev_id now provides functionality analogous
to zpool_id and zpool_layout, paving the way to retire those tools.

A defined alias takes precedence over a topology-derived name, but the
two naming methods can otherwise coexist. For example, one might name
drives in a JBOD with the sas_direct topology while naming an internal
L2ARC device with an alias.

For example, the following lines in vdev_id.conf will result in the
creation of links /dev/disk/by-vdev/{d1,d2}, each pointing to the same
target as the device link specified in the third field.

  #     by-vdev
  #     name     fully qualified or base name of device link
  alias d1       /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x5000c5002de3b9ca
  alias d2       wwn-0x5000c5002def789e

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 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.

Ned A. Bass 821b683436 Add vdev_id for JBOD-friendly udev aliases
vdev_id parses the file /etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf to map a physical path
in a storage topology to a channel name.  The channel name is combined
with a disk enclosure slot number to create an alias that reflects the
physical location of the drive.  This is particularly helpful when it
comes to tasks like replacing failed drives.  Slot numbers may also be
re-mapped in case the default numbering is unsatisfactory.  The drive
aliases will be created as symbolic links in /dev/disk/by-vdev.

The only currently supported topologies are sas_direct and sas_switch:

o  sas_direct - a channel is uniquely identified by a PCI slot and a
   HBA port

o  sas_switch - a channel is uniquely identified by a SAS switch port

A multipath mode is supported in which dm-mpath devices are handled by
examining the first running component disk, as reported by 'multipath
-l'.  In multipath mode the configuration file should contain a
channel definition with the same name for each path to a given
enclosure.

vdev_id can replace the existing zpool_id script on systems where the
storage topology conforms to sas_direct or sas_switch.  The script
could be extended to support other topologies as well.  The advantage
of vdev_id is that it is driven by a single static input file that can
be shared across multiple nodes having a common storage toplogy.
zpool_id, on the other hand, requires a unique /etc/zfs/zdev.conf per
node and a separate slot-mapping file.  However, zpool_id provides the
flexibility of using any device names that show up in
/dev/disk/by-path, so it may still be needed on some systems.

vdev_id's functionality subsumes that of the sas_switch_id script, and
it is unlikely that anyone is using it, so sas_switch_id is removed.

Finally, /dev/disk/by-vdev is added to the list of directories that
'zpool import' will scan.

This checking is particularly helpful when adding new dmu consumers

overhead.

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 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 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.

Christian Kohlschütter df30f56639 Add "ashift" property to zpool create
Some disks with internal sectors larger than 512 bytes (e.g., 4k) can
suffer from bad write performance when ashift is not configured
correctly.  This is caused by the disk not reporting its actual sector
size, but a sector size of 512 bytes.  The drive may behave this way
for compatibility reasons.  For example, the WDC WD20EARS disks are
known to exhibit this behavior.

When creating a zpool, ZFS takes that wrong sector size and sets the
"ashift" property accordingly (to 9: 1<<9=512), whereas it should be
set to 12 for 4k sectors (1<<12=4096).

This patch allows an adminstrator to manual specify the known correct
ashift size at 'zpool create' time.  This can significantly improve
performance in certain cases.  However, it will have an impact on your
total pool capacity.  See the updated ashift property description
in the zpool.8 man page for additional details.

Valid values for the ashift property range from 9 to 17 (512B-128KB).
Additionally, you may set the ashift to 0 if you wish to auto-detect
the sector size based on what the disk reports, this is the default
behavior.  The most common ashift values are 9 and 12.

  Example:
  zpool create -o ashift=12 tank raidz2 sda sdb sdc sdd

Brian Behlendorf bdf4328b04 Linux 2.6.28 compat, insert_inode_locked()
Added insert_inode_locked() helper function, prior to this most callers
used insert_inode_hash().  The older method doesn't check for collisions
in the inode_hashtable but it still acceptible for use.  Fallback to
using insert_inode_hash() when insert_inode_locked() is unavailable.

Brian Behlendorf 01c0e61da0 Add init scripts
To support automatically mounting your zfs on filesystem on boot
a basic init script is needed.  Unfortunately, every distribution
has their own idea of the _right_ way to do things.  Rather than
write one very complicated portable init script, which would be
invariably replaced by the distributions own anyway.  I have
instead added support to provide multiple distribution specific
init scripts.

The correct init script for your distribution will be selected
by ZFS_AC_DEFAULT_PACKAGE which will set DEFAULT_INIT_SCRIPT.
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
opposed to add that sort of thing.

Brian Behlendorf 45066d1f20 Linux 2.6.38 compat, blkdev_get_by_path()
The open_bdev_exclusive() function has been replaced (again) by the
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 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.

The const keyword was added to the 'struct xattr_handler' in the

appropriate xattr_handler_t typedef which can be used.  This was
the preferred solution because it keeps the code clean and readable.

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 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.

The script has been updated to download the latest documentations
packages for Solaris and extract the needed ZFS man pages.  These

Solaris and Linux versions of ZFS.  Howver, they should be pretty
minor I've tried hard to keep the interface the same.

In additional to the script update the zdb, zfs, and zpool man
pages have been added to the repo.
