This will enable additional correctness +checks and all the ASSERTs to help quickly catch potential issues. + +In addition, there are numerous utilities and debugging files which +provide visibility in to the inner workings of ZFS. The most useful +of these tools are discussed in detail on the [debugging ZFS wiki +page](https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Debugging). + +### Where can I ask for help? +The [mailing list](https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Mailing-Lists) +is the best place to ask for help. + +## How Can I Contribute? + +### Reporting Bugs +*Please* contact us via the [mailing +list](https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Mailing-Lists) if you aren't +certain that you are experiencing a bug. + +If you run into an issue, please search our [issue +tracker](https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/issues) *first* to ensure the +issue hasn't been reported before. Open a new issue only if you haven't +found anything similar to your issue. + +You can open a new issue and search existing issues using the public [issue +tracker](https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/issues). + +#### When opening a new issue, please include the following information at the top of the issue: +* What distribution (with version) you are using. +* The spl and zfs versions you are using, installation method (repository +or manual compilation). +* Describe the issue you are experiencing. +* Describe how to reproduce the issue. +* Including any warning/errors/backtraces from the system logs. + +When a new issue is opened, it is not uncommon for developers to request +additional information. + +In general, the more detail you share about a problem the quicker a +developer can resolve it. For example, providing a simple test case is always +exceptionally helpful. + +Be prepared to work with the developers investigating your issue. Your +assistance is crucial in providing a quick solution. They may ask for +information like: + +* Your pool configuration as reported by `zdb` or `zpool status`. +* Your hardware configuration, such as + * Number of CPUs. + * Amount of memory. + * Whether your system has ECC memory. + * Whether it is running under a VMM/Hypervisor. + * Kernel version. + * Values of the spl/zfs module parameters. +* Stack traces which may be logged to `dmesg`. + +### Suggesting Enhancements +ZFS on Linux is a widely deployed production filesystem which is under +active development. The team's primary focus is on fixing known issues, +improving performance, and adding compelling new features. + +You can view the list of proposed features +by filtering the issue tracker by the ["Feature" +label](https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AFeature). +If you have an idea for a feature first check this list. If your idea already +appears then add a +1 to the top most comment, this helps us gauge interest +in that feature. + +Otherwise, open a new issue and describe your proposed feature. Why is this +feature needed? What problem does it solve? + +### Pull Requests +* All pull requests must be based on the current master branch and apply +without conflicts. +* Please attempt to limit pull requests to a single commit which resolves +one specific issue. +* When updating a pull request squash multiple commits by performing a +[rebase](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-rebase) (squash). +* For large pull requests consider structuring your changes as a stack of +logically independent patches which build on each other. This makes large +changes easier to review and approve which speeds up the merging process. +* Try to keep pull requests simple. Simple code with comments is much easier +to review and approve. +* Test cases should be provided when appropriate. +* If your pull request improves performance, please include some benchmarks. +* The pull request must pass all required [ZFS +Buildbot](http://build.zfsonlinux.org/) builders before +being accepted. If you are experiencing intermittent TEST +builder failures, you may be experiencing a [test suite +issue](https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22Test+Suite%22). +* All proposed changes must be approved by a ZFS on Linux organization member. + +### Testing +All help is appreciated! If you're in a position to run the latest code +consider helping us by reporting any functional problems, performance +regressions or other suspected issues. By running the latest code to a wide +range of realistic workloads, configurations and architectures we're better +able quickly identify and resolve potential issues. + +Users can also run the [ZFS Test +Suite](https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/tree/master/tests) on their systems +to verify ZFS is behaving as intended. + +## Style Guides + +### Coding Conventions +We currently use [C Style and Coding Standards for +SunOS](http://www.cis.upenn.edu/%7Elee/06cse480/data/cstyle.ms.pdf) as our +coding convention. diff --git a/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md b/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..b93045731 --- /dev/null +++ b/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md @@ -0,0 +1,37 @@ +<!-- +Thank you for reporting an issue. + +This issue tracker is for bugs and issues only. +If you need general support please use +our mailing list. https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Mailing-Lists + +Please fill in as much of the template as possible. +--> + +### System information +<!-- add version after "|" character --> +Type | Version/Name + --- | --- +Distribution Name | +Distribution Version | +Linux Kernel | +Architecture | +ZFS Version | +SPL Version | +<!-- +Commands to find ZFS/SPL versions: +modinfo zfs | grep -iw version +modinfo spl | grep -iw version +--> + +### Describe the problem you're observing + +### Describe how to reproduce the problem + +### Include any warning/errors/backtraces from the system logs +<!-- +Example: +``` +this is an example how log text should be marked (wrap it with ```) +``` +--> diff --git a/.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md b/.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..7c11a46da --- /dev/null +++ b/.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md @@ -0,0 +1,32 @@ +<!--- Provide a general summary of your changes in the Title above --> + +### Description +<!--- Describe your changes in detail --> + +### Motivation and Context +<!--- Why is this change required?
