1. With various (debug and/or tracing?) kernel options enabled it's
possible for 'struct inode' and 'struct super_block' to exceed the
default frame size, leaving errors like this in config.log:
build/conftest.c:116:1: error: the frame size of 1048 bytes is larger
than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
Fix this by removing the frame size warning for config checks
2. Without the correct headers included, it's possible for declarations
to be missed, leaving errors like this in the config.log:
build/conftest.c:131:14: error: ‘struct nameidata’ declared inside
parameter list [-Werror]
Fix this by adding appropriate headers.
Note: Both these issues can result in silent config failures because
the compile failure is taken to mean "this option is not supported by
this kernel" rather than "there's something wrong with the config
test". This can lead to something merely annoying (compile failures) to
something potentially serious (miscompiled or misused kernel primitives
or functions). E.g. the fixes included here resulted in these
additional defines in zfs_config.h with linux v4.14.19:
Also, drive-by whitespace fixes in config/* files which don't mention

Linux has read-ahead logic designed to accelerate sequential workloads.
ZFS has its own read-ahead logic called zprefetch that operates on both
ZVOLs and datasets. Having two prefetchers active at the same time can
cause overprefetching, which unnecessarily reduces IOPS performance on
CoW filesystems like ZFS.
Testing shows that entirely disabling the Linux prefetch results in
a significant performance penalty for reads while commensurate benefits
are seen in random writes. It appears that read-ahead benefits are
inversely proportional to random write benefits, and so a single page
of Linux-layer read-ahead appears to offer the middle ground for both
workloads.

In torvalds/linux@a528d35, there are changes to the getattr family of functions,
struct kstat, and the interface of inode_operations .getattr.
The inode_operations .getattr and simple_getattr() interface changed to:
int (*getattr) (const struct path *, struct dentry *, struct kstat *,
u32 request_mask, unsigned int query_flags)
The request_mask argument indicates which field(s) the caller intends to use.
Fields the caller has not specified via request_mask may be set in the returned
struct anyway, but their values may be approximate.
The query_flags argument indicates whether the filesystem must update
the attributes from the backing store.
Currently both fields are ignored. It is possible that getattr-related
functions within zfs could be optimized based on the request_mask.
struct kstat includes new fields:
u32 result_mask; /* What fields the user got */
u64 attributes; /* See STATX_ATTR_* flags */
struct timespec btime; /* File creation time */
Fields attribute and btime are cleared; the result_mask reflects this. These
appear to be optional based on simple_getattr() and vfs_getattr() within the
kernel, which take the same approach.

Issue #4892
Issue #4899
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

- HAVE_SSE2,
- HAVE_SSE3,
- HAVE_SSSE3,

- HAVE_AVX2.

- zfs_sse_available()
- zfs_sse2_available()
- zfs_sse3_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.

- kfpu_begin()
- kfpu_end()

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.
