Originally it was thought it would be useful to split up the kmods
by functionality. This would allow external consumers to only load
what was needed. However, in practice we've never had a case where
this functionality would be needed, and conversely managing multiple
kmods can be awkward. Therefore, this change merges all but the
spl.ko kmod in to a single zfs.ko kmod.

This PR adds two new compression types, based on ZStandard:
- zstd: A basic ZStandard compression algorithm Available compression.
Levels for zstd are zstd-1 through zstd-19, where the compression
increases with every level, but speed decreases.
- zstd-fast: A faster version of the ZStandard compression algorithm
zstd-fast is basically a "negative" level of zstd. The compression
decreases with every level, but speed increases.
Available compression levels for zstd-fast:
- zstd-fast-1 through zstd-fast-10
- zstd-fast-20 through zstd-fast-100 (in increments of 10)
- zstd-fast-500 and zstd-fast-1000
For more information check the man page.
Implementation details:
Rather than treat each level of zstd as a different algorithm (as was
done historically with gzip), the block pointer `enum zio_compress`
value is simply zstd for all levels, including zstd-fast, since they all
use the same decompression function.
The compress= property (a 64bit unsigned integer) uses the lower 7 bits
to store the compression algorithm (matching the number of bits used in
a block pointer, as the 8th bit was borrowed for embedded block
pointers). The upper bits are used to store the compression level.
It is necessary to be able to determine what compression level was used
when later reading a block back, so the concept used in LZ4, where the
first 32bits of the on-disk value are the size of the compressed data
(since the allocation is rounded up to the nearest ashift), was
extended, and we store the version of ZSTD and the level as well as the
compressed size. This value is returned when decompressing a block, so
that if the block needs to be recompressed (L2ARC, nop-write, etc), that
the same parameters will be used to result in the matching checksum.
All of the internal ZFS code ( `arc_buf_hdr_t`, `objset_t`,
`zio_prop_t`, etc.) uses the separated _compress and _complevel
variables. Only the properties ZAP contains the combined/bit-shifted
value. The combined value is split when the compression_changed_cb()
callback is called, and sets both objset members (os_compress and
os_complevel).
The userspace tools all use the combined/bit-shifted value.
Additional notes:
zdb can now also decode the ZSTD compression header (flag -Z) and
inspect the size, version and compression level saved in that header.
For each record, if it is ZSTD compressed, the parameters of the decoded
compression header get printed.
ZSTD is included with all current tests and new tests are added
as-needed.
Per-dataset feature flags now get activated when the property is set.
If a compression algorithm requires a feature flag, zfs activates the
feature when the property is set, rather than waiting for the first
block to be born. This is currently only used by zstd but can be
extended as needed.

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_arc__evict zfs_arc__hit zfs_arc__miss
zfs_l2arc__evict zfs_l2arc__hit zfs_l2arc__iodone

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.

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).

Issue #2
When your kernel is built with kernel stack tracing enabled and you
have the debugfs filesystem mounted. Then the zfs.sh script will clear
the worst observed kernel stack depth on module load and check the worst
case usage on module removal. If the stack depth ever exceeds 7000
bytes the full stack will be printed for debugging. This is dangerously
close to overrunning the default 8k stack.
This additional advisory debugging is particularly valuable when running
the regression tests on a kernel built with 16k stacks. In this case,
almost no matter how bad the stack overrun is you will see be able to
get a clean stack trace for debugging. Since the worst case stack usage
can be highly variable it's helpful to always check the worst case usage.
Before it is safe to unload the zfs module stack all mounted
zfs filesystems must be unmounted. If they are not unmounted,
there will be references held on the modules and the stack cannot
be removed. To handle this have 'zfs.sh -u' which is used by all
of the test scripts umount all zfs filesystem before attempting
to unload the module stack.
Occasional failures were observed in zconfig.sh because udev
could be delayed for a few seconds. To handle this the wait_udev
function has been added to wait for timeout seconds for an
expected device before returning an error. By default callers
currently use a 30 seconds timeout which should be much longer
than udev ever needs but not so long to worry the test suite
is hung.
Add autoconf style build infrastructure to the ZFS tree. This
includes autogen.sh, configure.ac, m4 macros, some scripts/*,
and makefiles for all the core ZFS components.
