To minimize the chance of triggering an OOM during direct reclaim. The kmem caches have been improved to make a best effort to reclaim at least one slab when a reclaim function is registered. This helps avoid the case where objects are released but they are spread over multiple slabs so no memory gets reclaimed. Care has been taken to avoid deadlocking if the reclaim function is unable to make forward progress. Additionally, the reclaim function may be skipped entirely if there are already free slabs which can be safely reaped.

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 don’t want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.
To build packages for your distribution:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
