Brian Behlendorf 1814251453 Require gawk the usermode helper fails with awk
For some reason when awk invoked by the usermode helper the command
always fails.  Interestingly gawk does not suffer from this problem
which is why I never observed this failure since the distro I tested
with all had gawk installed instead of awk.  Anyway, the simplest
thing to do here is to just make gawk mandatory.  I've added a
configure check for gawk specifically and have updated the command
to call gawk not awk.

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and dont want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.

Documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://wiki.github.com/behlendorf/spl/
