Previously, the SPL tried to maintain Solaris semantics by freeing all available (empty) slabs from its slab caches when the shrinker was called. This is not desirable when running on Linux. To make the SPL shrinker more Linux friendly, the actual number of freed slabs from each of the slab caches is now derived from nr_to_scan and skc_slab_objs. Additionally, an accounting bug was fixed in spl_slab_reclaim() which could cause us to reclaim one more slab than requested.

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
