= Motivation
At Delphix we've seen a lot of customer systems where fragmentation
is over 75% and random writes take a performance hit because a lot
of time is spend on I/Os that update on-disk space accounting metadata.
Specifically, we seen cases where 20% to 40% of sync time is spend
after sync pass 1 and ~30% of the I/Os on the system is spent updating
spacemaps.
The problem is that these pools have existed long enough that we've
touched almost every metaslab at least once, and random writes
scatter frees across all metaslabs every TXG, thus appending to
their spacemaps and resulting in many I/Os. To give an example,
assuming that every VDEV has 200 metaslabs and our writes fit within
a single spacemap block (generally 4K) we have 200 I/Os. Then if we
assume 2 levels of indirection, we need 400 additional I/Os and
since we are talking about metadata for which we keep 2 extra copies
for redundancy we need to triple that number, leading to a total of
1800 I/Os per VDEV every TXG.
We could try and decrease the number of metaslabs so we have less
I/Os per TXG but then each metaslab would cover a wider range on
disk and thus would take more time to be loaded in memory from disk.
In addition, after it's loaded, it's range tree would consume more
memory.
Another idea would be to just increase the spacemap block size
which would allow us to fit more entries within an I/O block
resulting in fewer I/Os per metaslab and a speedup in loading time.
The problem is still that we don't deal with the number of I/Os
going up as the number of metaslabs is increasing and the fact
is that we generally write a lot to a few metaslabs and a little
to the rest of them. Thus, just increasing the block size would
actually waste bandwidth because we won't be utilizing our bigger
block size.
= About this patch
This patch introduces the Log Spacemap project which provides the
solution to the above problem while taking into account all the
aforementioned tradeoffs. The details on how it achieves that can
be found in the references sections below and in the code (see
Big Theory Statement in spa_log_spacemap.c).
Even though the change is fairly constraint within the metaslab
and lower-level SPA codepaths, there is a side-change that is
user-facing. The change is that VDEV IDs from VDEV holes will no
longer be reused. To give some background and reasoning for this,
when a log device is removed and its VDEV structure was replaced
with a hole (or was compacted; if at the end of the vdev array),
its vdev_id could be reused by devices added after that. Now
with the pool-wide space maps recording the vdev ID, this behavior
can cause problems (e.g. is this entry referring to a segment in
the new vdev or the removed log?). Thus, to simplify things the
ID reuse behavior is gone and now vdev IDs for top-level vdevs
are truly unique within a pool.
= Testing
The illumos implementation of this feature has been used internally
for a year and has been in production for ~6 months. For this patch
specifically there don't seem to be any regressions introduced to
ZTS and I have been running zloop for a week without any related
problems.
= Performance Analysis (Linux Specific)
All performance results and analysis for illumos can be found in
the links of the references. Redoing the same experiments in Linux
gave similar results. Below are the specifics of the Linux run.
After the pool reached stable state the percentage of the time
spent in pass 1 per TXG was 64% on average for the stock bits
while the log spacemap bits stayed at 95% during the experiment
(graph: sdimitro.github.io/img/linux-lsm/PercOfSyncInPassOne.png).
Sync times per TXG were 37.6 seconds on average for the stock
bits and 22.7 seconds for the log spacemap bits (related graph:
sdimitro.github.io/img/linux-lsm/SyncTimePerTXG.png). As a result
the log spacemap bits were able to push more TXGs, which is also
the reason why all graphs quantified per TXG have more entries for
the log spacemap bits.
Another interesting aspect in terms of txg syncs is that the stock
bits had 22% of their TXGs reach sync pass 7, 55% reach sync pass 8,
and 20% reach 9. The log space map bits reached sync pass 4 in 79%
of their TXGs, sync pass 7 in 19%, and sync pass 8 at 1%. This
emphasizes the fact that not only we spend less time on metadata
but we also iterate less times to convergence in spa_sync() dirtying
objects.

lsm- sdimitro.github.io/img/linux-lsm/NumberOfPassesPerTXGLSM.png]
Finally, the improvement in IOPs that the userland gains from the
change is approximately 40%. There is a consistent win in IOPS as
you can see from the graphs below but the absolute amount of
improvement that the log spacemap gives varies within each minute
interval.

Redacted send/receive allows users to send subsets of their data to
a target system. One possible use case for this feature is to not
transmit sensitive information to a data warehousing, test/dev, or
analytics environment. Another is to save space by not replicating
unimportant data within a given dataset, for example in backup tools
like zrepl.
Redacted send/receive is a three-stage process. First, a clone (or
clones) is made of the snapshot to be sent to the target. In this
clone (or clones), all unnecessary or unwanted data is removed or
modified. This clone is then snapshotted to create the "redaction
snapshot" (or snapshots). Second, the new zfs redact command is used
to create a redaction bookmark. The redaction bookmark stores the
list of blocks in a snapshot that were modified by the redaction
snapshot(s). Finally, the redaction bookmark is passed as a parameter
to zfs send. When sending to the snapshot that was redacted, the
redaction bookmark is used to filter out blocks that contain sensitive
or unwanted information, and those blocks are not included in the send
stream. When sending from the redaction bookmark, the blocks it
contains are considered as candidate blocks in addition to those
blocks in the destination snapshot that were modified since the
creation_txg of the redaction bookmark. This step is necessary to
allow the target to rehydrate data in the case where some blocks are
accidentally or unnecessarily modified in the redaction snapshot.
The changes to bookmarks to enable fast space estimation involve
adding deadlists to bookmarks. There is also logic to manage the
life cycles of these deadlists.
The new size estimation process operates in cases where previously
an accurate estimate could not be provided. In those cases, a send
is performed where no data blocks are read, reducing the runtime
significantly and providing a byte-accurate size estimate.

Closes#7958
If the zfs_remove_max_segment tunable is changed to be not a multiple of
the sector size, then the device removal code will malfunction and try
to create mappings that are smaller than one sector, leading to a panic.
On debug bits this assertion will fail in spa_vdev_copy_segment():
ASSERT3U(DVA_GET_ASIZE(&dst), ==, size);
On nondebug, the system panics with a stack like:
metaslab_free_concrete()
metaslab_free_impl()
metaslab_free_impl_cb()
vdev_indirect_remap()
free_from_removing_vdev()
metaslab_free_impl()
metaslab_free_dva()
metaslab_free()
Fortunately, the default for zfs_remove_max_segment is 1MB, so this
can't occur by default. We hit it during this test because
removal_remap.ksh changes zfs_remove_max_segment to 1KB. When testing on
4KB-sector disks, we hit the bug.
This change makes the zfs_remove_max_segment tunable more robust,
automatically rounding it up to a multiple of the sector size. We also
turn some key assertions into VERIFY's so that similar bugs would be
caught before they are encoded on disk (and thus avoid a
panic-reboot-loop).

Starting in sync pass 5 (zfs_sync_pass_dont_compress), we disable
compression (including of metadata). Ostensibly this helps the sync
passes to converge (i.e. for a sync pass to not need to allocate
anything because it is 100% overwrites).
However, in practice it increases the average number of sync passes,
because when we turn compression off, a lot of block's size will change
and thus we have to re-allocate (not overwrite) them. It also increases
the number of 128KB allocations (e.g. for indirect blocks and spacemaps)
because these will not be compressed. The 128K allocations are
especially detrimental to performance on highly fragmented systems,
which may have very few free segments of this size, and may need to load
new metaslabs to satisfy 128K allocations.
We should increase zfs_sync_pass_dont_compress. In practice on a highly
fragmented system we see a few 5-pass txg's, a tiny number of 6-pass
txg's, and no txg's with more than 6 passes.

Closes#8892
On fragmented pools with high-performance storage, the looping in
metaslab_block_picker() can become the performance-limiting bottleneck.
When looking for a larger block (e.g. a 128K block for the ZIL), we may
search through many free segments (up to hundreds of thousands) to find
one that is large enough to satisfy the allocation. This can take a long
time (up to dozens of ms), and is done while holding the ms_lock, which
other threads may spin waiting for.
When this performance problem is encountered, profiling will show
high CPU time in metaslab_block_picker, as well as in mutex_enter from
various callers.
The problem is very evident on a test system with a sync write workload
with 8K writes to a recordsize=8k filesystem, with 4TB of SSD storage,
84% full and 88% fragmented. It has also been observed on production
systems with 90TB of storage, 76% full and 87% fragmented.
The fix is to change metaslab_df_alloc() to search only up to 16MB from
the previous allocation (of this alignment). After that, we will pick a
segment that is of the exact size requested (or larger). This reduces
the number of iterations to a few hundred on fragmented pools (a ~100x
improvement).

When iterating over a ZAP object, we're almost always certain to iterate
over the entire object. If there are multiple leaf blocks, we can
realize a performance win by issuing reads for all the leaf blocks in
parallel when the iteration begins.
For example, if we have 10,000 snapshots, "zfs destroy -nv
pool/fs@1%9999" can take 30 minutes when the cache is cold. This change
provides a >3x performance improvement, by issuing the reads for all ~64
blocks of each ZAP object in parallel.

We've observed that on some highly fragmented pools, most metaslab
allocations are small (~2-8KB), but there are some large, 128K
allocations. The large allocations are for ZIL blocks. If there is a
lot of fragmentation, the large allocations can be hard to satisfy.
The most common impact of this is that we need to check (and thus load)
lots of metaslabs from the ZIL allocation code path, causing sync writes
to wait for metaslabs to load, which can take a second or more. In the
worst case, we may not be able to satisfy the allocation, in which case
the ZIL will resort to txg_wait_synced() to ensure the change is on
disk.
To provide a workaround for this, this change adds a tunable that can
reduce the size of ZIL blocks.

Historically while doing performance testing we've noticed that IOPS
can be significantly reduced when all vdevs in the pool are hitting
the zfs_mg_fragmentation_threshold percentage. Specifically in a
hypothetical pool with two vdevs, what can happen is the following:
Vdev A would go above that threshold and only vdev B would be used.
Then vdev B would pass that threshold but vdev A would go below it
(we've been freeing from A to allocate to B). The allocations would
go back and forth utilizing one vdev at a time with IOPS taking a hit.
Empirically, we've seen that our vdev selection for allocations is
good enough that fragmentation increases uniformly across all vdevs
the majority of the time. Thus we set the threshold percentage high
enough to avoid hitting the speed bump on pools that are being pushed
to the edge. We effectively disable its effect in the majority of the
cases but we don't remove (at least for now) just in case we hit any
weird behavior in the future.

When receiving a DRR_OBJECT record the receive_object() function
needs to determine how to handle a spill block associated with the
object. It may need to be removed or kept depending on how the
object was modified at the source.
This determination is currently accomplished using a heuristic which
takes in to account the DRR_OBJECT record and the existing object
properties. This is a problem because there isn't quite enough
information available to do the right thing under all circumstances.
For example, when only the block size changes the spill block is
removed when it should be kept.
What's needed to resolve this is an additional flag in the DRR_OBJECT
which indicates if the object being received references a spill block.
The DRR_OBJECT_SPILL flag was added for this purpose. When set then
the object references a spill block and it must be kept. Either
it is update to date, or it will be replaced by a subsequent DRR_SPILL
record. Conversely, if the object being received doesn't reference
a spill block then any existing spill block should always be removed.
Since previous versions of ZFS do not understand this new flag
additional DRR_SPILL records will be inserted in to the stream.
This has the advantage of being fully backward compatible. Existing
ZFS systems receiving this stream will recreate the spill block if
it was incorrectly removed. Updated ZFS versions will correctly
ignore the additional spill blocks which can be identified by
checking for the DRR_SPILL_UNMODIFIED flag.
The small downside to this approach is that is may increase the size
of the stream and of the received snapshot on previous versions of
ZFS. Additionally, when receiving streams generated by previous
unpatched versions of ZFS spill blocks may still be lost.

UNMAP/TRIM support is a frequently-requested feature to help
prevent performance from degrading on SSDs and on various other
SAN-like storage back-ends. By issuing UNMAP/TRIM commands for
sectors which are no longer allocated the underlying device can
often more efficiently manage itself.
This TRIM implementation is modeled on the `zpool initialize`
feature which writes a pattern to all unallocated space in the
pool. The new `zpool trim` command uses the same vdev_xlate()
code to calculate what sectors are unallocated, the same per-
vdev TRIM thread model and locking, and the same basic CLI for
a consistent user experience. The core difference is that
instead of writing a pattern it will issue UNMAP/TRIM commands
for those extents.
The zio pipeline was updated to accommodate this by adding a new
ZIO_TYPE_TRIM type and associated spa taskq. This new type makes
is straight forward to add the platform specific TRIM/UNMAP calls
to vdev_disk.c and vdev_file.c. These new ZIO_TYPE_TRIM zios are
handled largely the same way as ZIO_TYPE_READs or ZIO_TYPE_WRITEs.
This makes it possible to largely avoid changing the pipieline,
one exception is that TRIM zio's may exceed the 16M block size
limit since they contain no data.
In addition to the manual `zpool trim` command, a background
automatic TRIM was added and is controlled by the 'autotrim'
property. It relies on the exact same infrastructure as the
manual TRIM. However, instead of relying on the extents in a
metaslab's ms_allocatable range tree, a ms_trim tree is kept
per metaslab. When 'autotrim=on', ranges added back to the
ms_allocatable tree are also added to the ms_free tree. The
ms_free tree is then periodically consumed by an autotrim
thread which systematically walks a top level vdev's metaslabs.
Since the automatic TRIM will skip ranges it considers too small
there is value in occasionally running a full `zpool trim`. This
may occur when the freed blocks are small and not enough time
was allowed to aggregate them. An automatic TRIM and a manual
`zpool trim` may be run concurrently, in which case the automatic
TRIM will yield to the manual TRIM.

When Multihost is enabled, and a pool is imported, uberblock writes
include ub_mmp_delay to allow an importing node to calculate the
duration of an activity test. This value, is not enough information.
If zfs_multihost_fail_intervals > 0 on the node with the pool imported,
the safe minimum duration of the activity test is well defined, but does
not depend on ub_mmp_delay:
zfs_multihost_fail_intervals * zfs_multihost_interval
and if zfs_multihost_fail_intervals == 0 on that node, there is no such
well defined safe duration, but the importing host cannot tell whether
mmp_delay is high due to I/O delays, or due to a very large
zfs_multihost_interval setting on the host which last imported the pool.
As a result, it may use a far longer period for the activity test than
is necessary.
This patch renames ub_mmp_sequence to ub_mmp_config and uses it to
record the zfs_multihost_interval and zfs_multihost_fail_intervals
values, as well as the mmp sequence. This allows a shorter activity
test duration to be calculated by the importing host in most situations.
These values are also added to the multihost_history kstat records.
It calculates the activity test duration differently depending on
whether the new fields are present or not; for importing pools with
only ub_mmp_delay, it uses
(zfs_multihost_interval + ub_mmp_delay) * zfs_multihost_import_intervals
Which results in an activity test duration less sensitive to the leaf
count.
In addition, it makes a few other improvements:
* It updates the "sequence" part of ub_mmp_config when MMP writes
in between syncs occur. This allows an importing host to detect MMP
on the remote host sooner, when the pool is idle, as it is not limited
to the granularity of ub_timestamp (1 second).
* It issues writes immediately when zfs_multihost_interval is changed
so remote hosts see the updated value as soon as possible.
* It fixes a bug where setting zfs_multihost_fail_intervals = 1 results
in immediate pool suspension.
* Update tests to verify activity check duration is based on recorded
tunable values, not tunable values on importing host.
* Update tests to verify the expected number of uberblocks have valid
MMP fields - fail_intervals, mmp_interval, mmp_seq (sequence number),
that sequence number is incrementing, and that uberblock values match
tunable settings.

By default, when multihost is enabled for a pool, the pool is
suspended if (zfs_multihost_fail_intervals*zfs_multihost_interval) ms
pass without a successful MMP write. This is the recommended
configuration.
The default value for zfs_multihost_fail_intervals has been 5, and the
default value for zfs_multihost_interval has been 1000, so pool
suspension occurred at 5 seconds.
There have been multiple cases where a single misbehaving device in a
pool triggered a SCSI reset, and all I/O paused for 5-6 seconds. This
in turn caused MMP to suspend the pool.
In the cases observed, the rest of the devices were healthy and the
pool was otherwise correctly performing I/O. The reset was handled
correctly by ZFS, and by suspending the pool MMP made replacing the
device more difficult as well as forcing the host to be rebooted.
Increase the default value of zfs_multihost_fail_intervals to 10, so
that MMP tolerates up to 10 seconds of failed MMP writes before
suspending the pool.
Increase the default value of zfs_multihost_import_intervals to 20, to
maintain the 2:1 safety factor. This results in a force import taking
approximately 20 seconds when MMP is enabled, with default values.

pages, which are faster to allocate and free, and don't suffer from
internal fragmentation (and the inability to reclaim memory because some
buffers in the slab are still allocated).
However, the current code does linear allocations for 4KB and smaller
allocations, defeating the purpose of ABD.
Scatter ABD's use at least one page each, so sub-page allocations waste
some space when allocated as scatter (e.g. 2KB scatter allocation wastes
half of each page). Using linear ABD's for small allocations means that
they will be put on slabs which contain many allocations. This can
improve memory efficiency, but it also makes it much harder for ARC
evictions to actually free pages, because all the buffers on one slab
need to be freed in order for the slab (and underlying pages) to be
freed. Typically, 512B and 1KB kmem caches have 16 buffers per slab, so
it's possible for them to actually waste more memory than scatter (one
page per buf = wasting 3/4 or 7/8th; one buf per slab = wasting
15/16th).
Spill blocks are typically 512B and are heavily used on systems running
selinux with the default dnode size and the `xattr=sa` property set.
By default we will use linear allocations for 512B and 1KB, and scatter
allocations for larger (1.5KB and up).

This patch is an async implementation of the existing sync

is responsible for freeing znodes that we didn't get to freeing before.
We don't have to hold mounting of the dataset until the unlinked list is
fully drained as is done now. Since we can process the unlinked set
asynchronously this results in a better user experience when mounting a
dataset with entries in the unlinked set.

= Old behavior
For vdev sizes 100GB to 50TB we keep ~200 metaslabs per
vdev and the metaslab size grows from 512MB to 256GB.
For vdev's bigger than that we start increasing the
number of metaslabs until we hit the 128K limit.
= New Behavior
For vdev sizes 100GB to 3TB we keep ~200 metaslabs per
vdev and the metaslab size grows from 512MB to 16GB.
For vdev's bigger than that we start increasing the
number of metaslabs until we hit the 128K limit.
= Reasoning
The old behavior makes metaslabs grow in size when
the vdev range is between 3TB (ms_size 16GB) and
32PB (ms_size 256GB). Even though keeping the number
of metaslabs is good in terms of potential number of
I/Os per TXG, these bigger metaslabs take longer
to be loaded and after they are loaded they can
take up a lot of memory because of their range trees.
This change tries to put a boundary in memory and
loading time for the specific range of vdev sizes.

Increase the default allowed number of reconstruction attempts.
There's not an exact right number for this setting. It needs
to be set large enough to cover any realistic failure scenarios
and small enough to avoid stalling the IO pipeline and invoking
the dead man detection.
The current value of 256 was empirically determined to be too
low based on multi-day runs of ztest. The fault injection code
would inject more damage than could be reconstructed given the
relatively small number of attempts. However, in all observed
cases the block could be reconstructed using a slightly higher
limit.
Based on local testing increasing the default value to 4096 was
determined to strike the best balance. Checking all combinations
takes less than 10s in the worst case, and has so far eliminated
the vast majority of false positives detected by ztest. This
delay is roughly on par with how long retries may be performed
to a misbehaving HDD and was deemed to be reasonable. Better to
err on the side of a brief delay rather than fail to reconstruct
the data.
Lastly, the -Y flag has been added to zdb to make it easy to try all
possible combinations when performing split block reconstruction.
For badly damaged blocks with 18 splits, they can be fully enumerated
within a few minutes. This has been done to ensure permanent errors
are never incorrectly reported when ztest verifies the pool with zdb.

PROBLEM
========
The first access to a block incurs a performance penalty on some platforms
(e.g. AWS's EBS, VMware VMDKs). Therefore we recommend that volumes are
"thick provisioned", where supported by the platform (VMware). This can
create a large delay in getting a new virtual machines up and running (or
adding storage to an existing Engine). If the thick provision step is
omitted, write performance will be suboptimal until all blocks on the LUN
have been written.
SOLUTION
=========
This feature introduces a way to 'initialize' the disks at install or in the
background to make sure we don't incur this first read penalty.
When an entire LUN is added to ZFS, we make all space available immediately,
and allow ZFS to find unallocated space and zero it out. This works with
concurrent writes to arbitrary offsets, ensuring that we don't zero out
something that has been (or is in the middle of being) written. This scheme
can also be applied to existing pools (affecting only free regions on the
vdev). Detailed design:
- new subcommand:zpool initialize [-cs] <pool> [<vdev> ...]
- start, suspend, or cancel initialization
- Creates new open-context thread for each vdev
- Thread iterates through all metaslabs in this vdev
- Each metaslab:
- select a metaslab
- load the metaslab
- mark the metaslab as being zeroed
- walk all free ranges within that metaslab and translate
them to ranges on the leaf vdev
- issue a "zeroing" I/O on the leaf vdev that corresponds to
a free range on the metaslab we're working on
- continue until all free ranges for this metaslab have been
"zeroed"
- reset/unmark the metaslab being zeroed
- if more metaslabs exist, then repeat above tasks.
- if no more metaslabs, then we're done.
- progress for the initialization is stored on-disk in the vdev’s
leaf zap object. The following information is stored:
- the last offset that has been initialized
- the state of the initialization process (i.e. active,
suspended, or canceled)
- the start time for the initialization
- progress is reported via the zpool status command and shows
information for each of the vdevs that are initializing
Porting notes:
- Added zfs_initialize_value module parameter to set the pattern
written by "zpool initialize".
- Added zfs_vdev_{initializing,removal}_{min,max}_active module options.

* Detect IO errors during device removal
While device removal cannot verify the checksums of individual
blocks during device removal, it can reasonably detect hard IO
errors from the leaf vdevs. Failure to perform this error
checking can result in device removal completing successfully,
but moving no data which will permanently corrupt the pool.
Situation 1: faulted/degraded vdevs
In the configuration shown below, the removal of mirror-0 will
permanently corrupt the pool. Device removal will preferentially
copy data from 'vdev1 -> vdev3' and from 'vdev2 -> vdev4'. Which
in this case will result in nothing being copied since one vdev
in each of those groups in unavailable. However, device removal
will complete successfully since all IO errors are ignored.
tank DEGRADED 0 0 0
mirror-0 DEGRADED 0 0 0
/var/tmp/vdev1 FAULTED 0 0 0 external fault
/var/tmp/vdev2 ONLINE 0 0 0
mirror-1 DEGRADED 0 0 0
/var/tmp/vdev3 ONLINE 0 0 0
/var/tmp/vdev4 FAULTED 0 0 0 external fault
This issue is resolved by updating the source child selection
logic to exclude unreadable leaf vdevs. Additionally, unwritable
destination child vdevs which can never succeed are skipped to
prevent generating a large number of write IO errors.
Situation 2: individual hard IO errors
During removal if an unexpected hard IO error is encountered when
either reading or writing the child vdev the entire removal
operation is cancelled. While it may be possible to reconstruct
the data after removal that cannot be guaranteed. The only
strictly safe thing to do is to cancel the removal.
As a future improvement we may want to instead suspend the removal
process and allow the damaged region to be retried. But that work
is left for another time, hard IO errors during the removal process
are expected to be exceptionally rare.

This project's goal is to make read-heavy channel programs and zfs(1m)
administrative commands faster by caching all the metadata that they will
need in the dbuf layer. This will prevent the data from being evicted, so
that any future call to i.e. zfs get all won't have to go to disk (very
much). There are two parts:
The dbuf_metadata_cache. We identify what to put into the cache based on
the object type of each dbuf. Caching objset properties os
{version,normalization,utf8only,casesensitivity} in the objset_t. The reason
these needed to be cached is that although they are queried frequently,
they aren't stored in a dbuf type which we can easily recognize and cache in
the dbuf layer; instead, we have to explicitly store them. There's already
existing infrastructure for maintaining cached properties in the objset
setup code, so I simply used that.
Performance Testing:
- Disabled kmem_flags
- Tuned dbuf_cache_max_bytes very low (128K)
- Tuned zfs_arc_max very low (64M)
Created test pool with 400 filesystems, and 100 snapshots per filesystem.
Later on in testing, added 600 more filesystems (with no snapshots) to make
sure scaling didn't look different between snapshots and filesystems.
Results:
| Test | Time (trunk / diff) | I/Os (trunk / diff) |
+------------------------+---------------------+---------------------+
| zpool import | 0:05 / 0:06 | 12.9k / 12.9k |

maps that we allocate through the DMU use a global tunable
(space_map_blksz) which defauls to 4KB. This is ok for metaslab
space maps in terms of bandwirdth since they are scattered all
over the disk. But for other space maps this default is probably
not what we want. Examples are device removal's vdev_obsolete_sm
or vdev_chedkpoint_sm from this review. Both of these have a
1:1 relationship with each vdev and could benefit from a bigger

Closes#7618
Device removal allocates a new location for each allocated segment on
the disk that's being removed. Each allocation results in one entry in
the mapping table, which maps from old location + length to new
location. When a fragmented disk is removed, this can result in a large
number of mapping entries, and thus a large amount of memory consumed by
the mapping table. In the worst real-world cases, we've seen around 1GB
of RAM per 1TB of storage removed.
We can improve on this situation by allocating larger segments, which
span across both allocated and free regions of the device being removed.
By including free regions in the allocation (and thus mapping), we
reduce the number of mapping entries. For example, if we have a 4K
allocation followed by 1K free and then 4K allocated, we would allocate
4+1+4 = 9KB, and then move the entire region (including allocated and
free parts). In this case we used one mapping where previously we would
have used two, but often the ratio is much higher (up to 20:1 in
real-world use). We then need to mark the regions that were free on the
removing device as free in the new locations, and also obsolete in the
mapping entry.
This method preserves the fragmentation of the removing device, rather
than consolidating its allocated space into a small number of chunks
where possible. But it results in drastic reduction of memory used by
the mapping table - around 20x in the most-fragmented cases.
In the most fragmented real-world cases, this reduces memory used by the
mapping from ~1GB to ~50MB of RAM per 1TB of storage removed. Less
fragmented cases will typically also see around 50-100MB of RAM per 1TB
of storage.

External-issue: DLPX-57962
Closes#7536
Some work has been done lately to improve the debugability of the ZFS pool
load (and import) process. This includes:
7638 Refactor spa_load_impl into several functions
8961 SPA load/import should tell us why it failed
7277 zdb should be able to print zfs_dbgmsg's
To iterate on top of that, there's a few changes that were made to make the
import process more resilient and crash free. One of the first tasks during the
pool load process is to parse a config provided from userland that describes
what devices the pool is composed of. A vdev tree is generated from that config,
and then all the vdevs are opened.
The Meta Object Set (MOS) of the pool is accessed, and several metadata objects
that are necessary to load the pool are read. The exact configuration of the
pool is also stored inside the MOS. Since the configuration provided from
userland is external and might not accurately describe the vdev tree
of the pool at the txg that is being loaded, it cannot be relied upon to safely
operate the pool. For that reason, the configuration in the MOS is read early
on. In the past, the two configurations were compared together and if there was
a mismatch then the load process was aborted and an error was returned.
The latter was a good way to ensure a pool does not get corrupted, however it
made the pool load process needlessly fragile in cases where the vdev
configuration changed or the userland configuration was outdated. Since the MOS
is stored in 3 copies, the configuration provided by userland doesn't have to be
perfect in order to read its contents. Hence, a new approach has been adopted:
The pool is first opened with the untrusted userland configuration just so that
the real configuration can be read from the MOS. The trusted MOS configuration
is then used to generate a new vdev tree and the pool is re-opened.
When the pool is opened with an untrusted configuration, writes are disabled
to avoid accidentally damaging it. During reads, some sanity checks are
performed on block pointers to see if each DVA points to a known vdev;
when the configuration is untrusted, instead of panicking the system if those
checks fail we simply avoid issuing reads to the invalid DVAs.
This new two-step pool load process now allows rewinding pools accross
vdev tree changes such as device replacement, addition, etc. Loading a pool
from an external config file in a clustering environment also becomes much
safer now since the pool will import even if the config is outdated and didn't,
for instance, register a recent device addition.
With this code in place, it became relatively easy to implement a
long-sought-after feature: the ability to import a pool with missing top level
(i.e. non-redundant) devices. Note that since this almost guarantees some loss
of data, this feature is for now restricted to a read-only import.
Porting notes (ZTS):
* Fix 'make dist' target in zpool_import
* The maximum path length allowed by tar is 99 characters. Several
of the new test cases exceeded this limit resulting in them not
being included in the tarball. Shorten the names slightly.
* Set/get tunables using accessor functions.
* Get last synced txg via the "zfs_txg_history" mechanism.
* Clear zinject handlers in cleanup for import_cache_device_replaced
and import_rewind_device_replaced in order that the zpool can be
exported if there is an error.
* Increase FILESIZE to 8G in zfs-test.sh to allow for a larger
ext4 file system to be created on ZFS_DISK2. Also, there's
no need to partition ZFS_DISK2 at all. The partitioning had
already been disabled for multipath devices. Among other things,
the partitioning steals some space from the ext4 file system,
makes it difficult to accurately calculate the paramters to
parted and can make some of the tests fail.
* Increase FS_SIZE and FILE_SIZE in the zpool_import test
configuration now that FILESIZE is larger.
* Write more data in order that device evacuation take lonnger in
a couple tests.
* Use mkdir -p to avoid errors when the directory already exists.
* Remove use of sudo in import_rewind_config_changed.

We should use zfs_dbgmsg instead of spa_dbgmsg. Or at least,
metaslab_condense() should call zfs_dbgmsg because it's important and
rare enough to always log. It's possible that the message in
zio_dva_allocate() would be too high-frequency for zfs_dbgmsg.

Mirrors are supposed to provide redundancy in the face of whole-disk
failure and silent damage (e.g. some data on disk is not right, but ZFS
hasn't detected the whole device as being broken). However, the current
device removal implementation bypasses some of the mirror's redundancy.
Note that in no case is incorrect data returned, but we might get a
checksum error when we should have been able to find the right data.
There are two underlying problems:
1. When we remove a mirror device, we only read one side of the mirror.
Since we can't verify the checksum, this side may be silently bad, but
the good data is on the other side of the mirror (which we didn't read).
This can cause the removal to "bake in" the busted data – all copies of
the data in the new location are the same, busted version, while we left
the good version behind.
The fix for this is to read and copy both sides of the mirror. If the
old and new vdevs are mirrors, we will read both sides of the old
mirror, and write each copy to the corresponding side of the new mirror.
(If the old and new vdevs have a different number of children, we will
do this as best as possible.) Even though we aren't verifying checksums,
this ensures that as long as there's a good copy of the data, we'll have
a good copy after the removal, even if there's silent damage to one side
of the mirror. If we're removing a mirror that has some silent damage,
we'll have exactly the same damage in the new location (assuming that
the new location is also a mirror).
2. When we read from an indirect vdev that points to a mirror vdev, we
only consider one copy of the data. This can lead to reduced effective
redundancy, because we might read a bad copy of the data from one side
of the mirror, and not retry the other, good side of the mirror.
Note that the problem is not with the removal process, but rather after
the removal has completed (having copied correct data to both sides of
the mirror), if one side of the new mirror is silently damaged, we
encounter the problem when reading the relocated data via the indirect
vdev. Also note that the problem doesn't occur when ZFS knows that one
side of the mirror is bad, e.g. when a disk entirely fails or is
offlined.
The impact is that reads (from indirect vdevs that point to mirrors) may
return a checksum error even though the good data exists on one side of
the mirror, and scrub doesn't repair all data on the mirror (if some of
it is pointed to via an indirect vdev).
The fix for this is complicated by "split blocks" - one logical block
may be split into two (or more) pieces with each piece moved to a
different new location. In this case we need to read all versions of
each split (one from each side of the mirror), and figure out which
combination of versions results in the correct checksum, and then repair
the incorrect versions.
This ensures that we supply the same redundancy whether you use device
removal or not. For example, if a mirror has small silent errors on all
of its children, we can still reconstruct the correct data, as long as
those errors are at sufficiently-separated offsets (specifically,
separated by the largest block size - default of 128KB, but up to 16MB).
Porting notes:
* A new indirect vdev check was moved from dsl_scan_needs_resilver_cb()
to dsl_scan_needs_resilver(), which was added to ZoL as part of the
sequential scrub work.
* Passed NULL for zfs_ereport_post_checksum()'s zbookmark_phys_t
parameter. The extra parameter is unique to ZoL.
* When posting indirect checksum errors the ABD can be passed directly,
zfs_ereport_post_checksum() is not yet ABD-aware in OpenZFS.

OpenZFS 7614 - zfs device evacuation/removal
OpenZFS 9064 - remove_mirror should wait for device removal to complete
This project allows top-level vdevs to be removed from the storage pool
with "zpool remove", reducing the total amount of storage in the pool.
This operation copies all allocated regions of the device to be removed
onto other devices, recording the mapping from old to new location.
After the removal is complete, read and free operations to the removed
(now "indirect") vdev must be remapped and performed at the new location
on disk. The indirect mapping table is kept in memory whenever the pool
is loaded, so there is minimal performance overhead when doing operations
on the indirect vdev.
The size of the in-memory mapping table will be reduced when its entries
become "obsolete" because they are no longer used by any block pointers
in the pool. An entry becomes obsolete when all the blocks that use
it are freed. An entry can also become obsolete when all the snapshots
that reference it are deleted, and the block pointers that reference it
have been "remapped" in all filesystems/zvols (and clones). Whenever an
indirect block is written, all the block pointers in it will be "remapped"
to their new (concrete) locations if possible. This process can be
accelerated by using the "zfs remap" command to proactively rewrite all
indirect blocks that reference indirect (removed) vdevs.
Note that when a device is removed, we do not verify the checksum of
the data that is copied. This makes the process much faster, but if it
were used on redundant vdevs (i.e. mirror or raidz vdevs), it would be
possible to copy the wrong data, when we have the correct data on e.g.
the other side of the mirror.
At the moment, only mirrors and simple top-level vdevs can be removed
and no removal is allowed if any of the top-level vdevs are raidz.
Porting Notes:
* Avoid zero-sized kmem_alloc() in vdev_compact_children().
The device evacuation code adds a dependency that
vdev_compact_children() be able to properly empty the vdev_child
array by setting it to NULL and zeroing vdev_children. Under Linux,
kmem_alloc() and related functions return a sentinel pointer rather
than NULL for zero-sized allocations.
* Remove comment regarding "mpt" driver where zfs_remove_max_segment
is initialized to SPA_MAXBLOCKSIZE.
Change zfs_condense_indirect_commit_entry_delay_ticks to
zfs_condense_indirect_commit_entry_delay_ms for consistency with
most other tunables in which delays are specified in ms.
* ZTS changes:
Use set_tunable rather than mdb
Use zpool sync as appropriate
Use sync_pool instead of sync
Kill jobs during test_removal_with_operation to allow unmount/export
Don't add non-disk names such as "mirror" or "raidz" to $DISKS
Use $TEST_BASE_DIR instead of /tmp
Increase HZ from 100 to 1000 which is more common on Linux
removal_multiple_indirection.ksh
Reduce iterations in order to not time out on the code
coverage builders.
removal_resume_export:
Functionally, the test case is correct but there exists a race
where the kernel thread hasn't been fully started yet and is
not visible. Wait for up to 1 second for the removal thread
to be started before giving up on it. Also, increase the
amount of data copied in order that the removal not finish
before the export has a chance to fail.
* MMP compatibility, the concept of concrete versus non-concrete devices
has slightly changed the semantics of vdev_writeable(). Update
mmp_random_leaf_impl() accordingly.
* Updated dbuf_remap() to handle the org.zfsonlinux:large_dnode pool
feature which is not supported by OpenZFS.
* Added support for new vdev removal tracepoints.
* Test cases removal_with_zdb and removal_condense_export have been
intentionally disabled. When run manually they pass as intended,
but when running in the automated test environment they produce
unreliable results on the latest Fedora release.
They may work better once the upstream pool import refectoring is
merged into ZoL at which point they will be re-enabled.

With compressed ARC (bug 6950) we use up to 25% of our CPU to decompress
indirect blocks, under a workload of random cached reads. To reduce this
decompression cost, we would like to increase the size of the dbuf cache so
that more indirect blocks can be stored uncompressed.
If we are caching entire large files of recordsize=8K, the indirect blocks
use 1/64th as much memory as the data blocks (assuming they have the same
compression ratio). We suggest making the dbuf cache be 1/32nd of all memory,
so that in this scenario we should be able to keep all the indirect blocks
decompressed in the dbuf cache. (We want it to be more than the 1/64th that
the indirect blocks would use because we need to cache other stuff in the dbuf
cache as well.)
In real world workloads, this won't help as dramatically as the example above,
but we think it's still worth it because the risk of decreasing performance is
low. The potential negative performance impact is that we will be slightly
reducing the size of the ARC (by ~3%).
Porting Notes:
* Added modules options to zfs-module-parameters.5 man page.
* Preserved scaling based on target ARC size rather than max ARC size.
