Shift the cache and magazine ageing functionality over to the new
delayed taskq interfaces. This allows us to abandon the kernels
delayed work queue interface and all the compatibility code it
requires.
However, the delayed taskq interface does not allow us to schedule
a task for a specfic cpu so the ageing code was slightly reworked.
The magazine ageing delay has been directly linked to the cache
ageing function. The spl_cache_age() function invokes on_each_cpu()
in order to run spl_magazine_age() on each cpu. It then blocks
waiting for them to complete and promptly reclaims any free slabs.
When restructing the code wasn't the primary goal I think the
new code is far more understable and maintainable. It also should
help minimize magazine thrashing because free slabs are immediately
released after the magazine is aged.

When this code was originally written I went overboard and allowed
for the possibility of creating a cache in an atomic context. In
practice there are no callers which ever do this. This makes sense
since a cache is by design a long lived data structure.
To prevent abuse of this function going forward I'm removing the
code which is supported to handle an atomic context. All allocators
have been updated to use KM_SLEEP and the might_sleep() debug macro
has been added to immediately detect atomic callers.

The slightly increased size of the taskq_ent_t when debugging is
enabled has pushed the taskq:front splat test over frame size
limit. To resolve this dynamically allocate the taskq_ent_t
structures so they are part of the heap instead of the stack.

Add a test case for taskq_cancel_id() to verify it is working
properly. Just like taskq:delay we start by dispatching 100
tasks. However this time 1/3 of the tasks use taskq_dispatch()
and will be run immediately, and 2/3 use taskq_dispatch_delay().
The idea is to create a busy taskq with both active, pending,
and delayed tasks.
After all the items have been successfully dispatched the test
begins randomly canceling known task ids. It will do this for
5 seconds randomly canceling a task id and then sleeping for a
few milliseconds. The task being canceled may have already run,
still be on the pending list, or may be currently being executed
by a worker thread. The idea is to ensure we catch any subtle
race conditions.
Once all the non-canceled tasks have completed we cross check
the number of tasks which ran with the number of tasks which
were successfully canceled. Additionally, we verify that the
taskq_cancel_id() function never blocks longer than needed.
This time is bounded by the longest run time of the task which
was dispatched.

Add a test case for taskq_dispatch_delay() to verify it is working
properly. The test dispatchs 100 tasks to a taskq with random
expiration times spread over 5 seconds. As each task expires and
gets executed by a worker thread it verifies that it was run at
the correct time. Once all the delayed tasks have been executed
we double check that all the dispatched tasks were successful.

Add the ability to dispatch a delayed task to a taskq. The desired
behavior is for the task to be queued but not executed by a worker
thread until the expiration time is reached. To achieve this two
new functions were added.
* taskq_dispatch_delay() -
This function behaves exactly like taskq_dispatch() however it
takes a third 'expire_time' argument. The caller should pass the
desired time the task should be executed as an absolute value in
jiffies. The task is guarenteed not to run before this time, it
may run slightly latter if all the worker threads are busy.
* taskq_cancel_id() -
Given a task id attempt to cancel the task before it gets executed.
This is primarily useful for canceling delay tasks but can be used for
canceling any previously dispatched task. There are three possible
return values.
0 - The task was found and canceled before it was executed.
ENOENT - The task was not found, either it was already run or an
invalid task id was supplied by the caller.
EBUSY - The task is currently executing any may not be canceled.
This function will block until the task has been completed.
* taskq_wait_all() -
The taskq_wait_id() function was renamed taskq_wait_all() to more
clearly reflect its actual behavior. It is only curreny used by
the splat taskq regression tests.
* taskq_wait_id() -
Historically, the only difference between this function and
taskq_wait() was that you passed the task id. In both functions you
would block until ALL lower task ids which executed. This was
semantically correct but could be very slow particularly if there
were delay tasks submitted.
To better accomidate the delay tasks this function was reimplemnted.
It will now only block until the passed task id has been completed.
This is actually a fairly low risk change for a few reasons.
* Only new ZFS callers will make use of the new interfaces and
very little common code was changed to support the new functions.
* The existing taskq_wait() implementation was not changed just
slightly refactored.
* The newly optimized taskq_wait_id() implementation was never
used by ZFS we can't accidentally introduce a new bug there.
NOTE: This functionality does not exist in the Illumos taskqs.

When the taskq implementation was originally written I wrapped all
the API functions in #define's. This was done as a preventative
measure to ensure that a taskq symbol never conflicted with an
existing kernel symbol.
However, in practice the taskq symbols never conflicted. The only
major conflicts occured with the kmem cache API. Since this added
layer of obfuscation never bought us anything for the taskq's I'm
removing it.

The splat command takes a verbose option which when set prints
the internal debug log for every test. This is helpful when
tracking down a common failure, but for a rare failure the
volume of log data is distracting.
Therefore, the verbose option has been adjusted to allow only
printing the debug log on failure. The legacy behavior is still
available by specifying the verbose option twice. For example:
$ splat -t all:all # Never print the debug log
$ splat -v -t all:all # Only print debug log on failure
$ splat -vv -t all:all # Always print the debug log

The taskq:front test has a race condition where task 4 and 8
race to complete, due to an incorrectly calculated set of delay
"factors" (T). If task 4 wins and actually finishes first, the
verification of the order of completion will fail.
The delays calculated to order task completion do not take into
account the terminal line in the table, and so are all off by
a factor of 1. This causes all the tasks in all queues to finish
sooner than expected and the accumulated error is the root cause
of tasks 4 and 8 racing to complete first. Before the change the
"actual" table looks like I commented in #130.
I changed:
* the table in the comment to correctly reflect the test and the
factor timings needed.
* the individual task delay factors of T so that ONLY 1 task will
every 2T. (on average)
* 1T was reduced from 100ms to 50ms. This halves the duration of
the test and makes any remaining raciness more likely to cause
failures, but it did not cause the test to fail.
* simplified the delay factor logic by using a table look-up
instead of a switch.
* Added a "task started" message so that with -v it is possible
to see the order tasks are started.
* Moved the "task completed" message inside the spinlock so that
with -v the message truly reflects the absolute order of
completion as guaranteed by the spinlock.

Allowing the spl_cache_grow_work() function to reclaim inodes
allows for two unlikely deadlocks. Therefore, we clear __GFP_FS
for these allocations. The two deadlocks are:
* While holding the ZFS_OBJ_HOLD_ENTER(zsb, obj1) lock a function
calls kmem_cache_alloc() which happens to need to allocate a
new slab. To allocate the new slab we enter FS level reclaim
and attempt to evict several inodes. To evict these inodes we
need to take the ZFS_OBJ_HOLD_ENTER(zsb, obj2) lock and it
just happens that obj1 and obj2 use the same hashed lock.
* Similar to the first case however instead of getting blocked
on the hash lock we block in txg_wait_open() which is waiting
for the next txg which isn't coming because the txg_sync
thread is blocked in kmem_cache_alloc().
Note this isn't a 100% fix because vmalloc() won't strictly
honor __GFP_FS. However, it practice this is sufficient because
several very unlikely things must all occur concurrently.

the lockups reported in zfsonlinux/zfs#922. The lockups were
largely the result of spin lock contention in the slab under low
memory conditions. Fundamentally, these changes are all designed
to minimize that contention though a variety of methods.
* Improved vmem cached deadlock detection
* Track emergency objects in rbtree
* Optimize spl_kmem_cache_free()

If we are reaping from the cache and a concurrent allocation
occurs then the caller must block until the reaping is complete.
This is signaled by the clearing of the KMC_BIT_REAPING bit.
Otherwise the caller will be in a tight loop which takes and
releases the skc->skc_cache lock. When there are multiple
concurrent callers the system will thrash on the lock and
appear to lock up.

Because only virtual slabs may have emergency objects and these
objects are guaranteed to have physical addresses. It can be
easily determined if the passed object is a virtual slab object
or an emergency object. This allows us to completely optimize
the emergency object free case out of the common free path.

In the initial implementation emergency objects were tracked on a
per-cache list. The assumption was that under normal operation we
would never allocate more than a handful of these objects. So the
cost of walking the list during free was expected to be negligible.
However real world usage has shown that emergency objects tend to
be allocated in batches. A deadlock will be detected and several
thousand emergency objects will be allocated before the original
blocked slab allocation can complete.
Therefore the original list has been replaced by a red black tree
which is sorted by the memory address of each allocated object.
This bounds the worst case insertion and removal time to O(log n)
which minimize contention on the assoicated spin lock.

The entire goal of performing the slab allocations asynchronously
is to be able to detect when a vmalloc() deadlocks. In this case,
and only this case, do we want to start allocating emergency objects.
The trick here is to minimize false positives because the overhead
of tracking emergency objects is far higher than normal slab objects.
With that goal in mind the code was reworked to be less sensitive
to slow allocations by increasing the wait time. Once a cache is
is marked deadlocked all subsequent allocations which can not be
satisfied with existing cache objects will immediately allocate new
emergency objects. This behavior persists until the asynchronous
allocation completes and clears the deadlocked flag.
The result of these tweaks is that far fewer emergency objects
get created which is important because this minimizes the cost of
releasing them latter in kmem_cache_free().

This allows us to safely block in cv_destroy() until all consumers

Move the kstat ks_update() callback under the ks_lock. This
enables dynamically sized kstats without modification to the
kstat API.
* Create a kstat with the KSTAT_FLAG_VIRTUAL flag.
* Register a ->ks_update() callback which does:
o Frees any existing ks_data buffer.
o Set ks_data_size to the kstat array size.
o Set ks_data to an allocated buffer of size ks_data_size
o Populate the array of buffers with the required data.
The buffer allocated in the ks_update() callback is guaranteed
to remain allocated and valid while the proc sequence handler
iterates over the buffer. The lock will not be dropped until
kstat_seq_stop() function is run making it safe for concurrent
access. To allow the ks_update() callback to perform memory
allocations the lock was changed to a mutex.

Commit torvalds/linux@b8318b0 moved the __clear_close_on_exec()
function out of include/linux/fdtable.h and in to fs/file.c
making it unavailable to the SPL.
Now as it turns out we only used this function to tear down
some test infrastructure for the vn_getf()/vn_releasef() SPLAT
regression tests. Rather than implement even more autoconf
compatibilty code to handle this we just remove the test case.
This also allows us to drop three existing autoconf tests.
This does mean the SPLAT tests will no longer verify these
functions but historically they have never been a problem.
And if we feel we absolutely need this test coverage I'm
sure a more portable version of the test case could be added.

The kern_path_parent() function was removed from Linux 3.6 because
it was observed that all the callers just want the parent dentry.
The simpler kern_path_locked() function replaces kern_path_parent()
and does the lookup while holding the ->i_mutex lock.
This is good news for the vn implementation because it removes the
need for us to handle the locking. However, it makes it harder to
implement a single readable vn_remove()/vn_rename() function which
is usually what we prefer.
Therefore, we implement a new version of vn_remove()/vn_rename()
for Linux 3.6 and newer kernels. This allows us to leave the
existing working implementation untouched, and to add a simpler
version for newer kernels.
Long term I would very much like to see all of the vn code removed
since what this code enabled is generally frowned upon in the kernel.
But that can't happen util we either abondon the zpool.cache file
or implement alternate infrastructure to update is correctly in
user space.

This adds an interface to "punch holes" (deallocate space) in VFS
files. The interface is identical to the Solaris VOP_SPACE interface.
This interface is necessary for TRIM support on file vdevs.
This is implemented using Linux fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE), which
was introduced in 2.6.38. For a brief time before 2.6.38 this was done
using the truncate_range inode operation, which was quickly deprecated.
This patch only supports FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE.
This adds support for the truncate_range() inode operation to
VOP_SPACE() for file hole punching. This API is deprecated and removed
in 3.5, so it's only useful for old kernels.
On tmpfs, the truncate_range() inode operation translates to
shmem_truncate_range(). Unfortunately, this function expects the end
offset to be inclusive and aligned to the end of a page. If it is not,
the kernel will stop with a BUG_ON().
This patch fixes the issue by adapting to the constraints set forth by
shmem_truncate_range().

When the taskq code was originally written it seemed like a good
idea to simply map TQ_SLEEP to KM_SLEEP. Unfortunately, this
assumed that the TQ_* flags would never confict with any of the
Linux GFP_* flags. When adding the TQ_PUSHPAGE support in commit
cd5ca4b this invariant was accidentally broken.
Therefore to support TQ_PUSHPAGE, which is needed for Linux, and
prevent any further confusion I have removed this direct mapping.
The TQ_SLEEP, TQ_NOSLEEP, and TQ_PUSHPAGE are no longer defined
in terms of their KM_* counterparts. Instead a simple mapping
function is introduce to convert TQ_* -> KM_* where needed.

There still appears to be a race in the condition variables where
->cv_mutex is set after we are woken from the cv_destroy wait queue.
This might be possible when cv_destroy() is called immediately after
cv_broadcast(). We had some troubles with this previously but
there may still be a small race, see commit d599e4f.
The following patch closes one small race and improves the ASSERTs
such that they log the offending value.

The workspace required by zlib to perform compression is roughly
512MB (order-7). These allocations are so large that we should
never attempt to directly kmalloc an emergency object for them.
It is far preferable to asynchronously vmalloc an additional slab
in case it's needed. Then simply block waiting for an existing
object to be released or for the new slab to be allocated.
This can be accomplished by disabling emergency slab objects by
passing the KMC_NOEMERGENCY flag at slab creation time.

Provide a flag to disable the use of emergency objects for a
specific kmem cache. There may be instances where under no
circumstances should you kmalloc() an emergency object. For
example, when you cache contains very large objects (>128k).

When various kernel debuging options are enabled this allocation
may be larger than usual as shown by the following warning. It
is in no way harmful so we suppress the warning.

After the emergency slab objects were merged I started observing
timeout failures in the kmem:slab_overcommit test. These were
due to the ineffecient way the slab_overcommit reclaim function
was implemented. And due to the additional cost of potentially
allocating ten of thousands of emergency objects and tracking
them on a single list.
This patch addresses the first concern by enhansing the test
case to trace all of the allocations objects as a linked list.
This allows for a cleaner version of the reclaim function to
simply release SPLAT_KMEM_OBJ_RECLAIM objects.
Since this touches some common code all the tests which share
these data structions were also updated. After making these
changes slab_overcommit is reliably passing. However, there
is certainly additional cleanup which could be done here.

Under certain circumstances the following functions may be called
in a context where KM_SLEEP is unsafe and can result in a deadlocked
system. To avoid this problem the unconditional KM_SLEEPs are
converted to KM_PUSHPAGEs. This will prevent them from attempting
to initiate any I/O during direct reclaim.

Generate an assertion if we're going to deadlock the system by
attempting to acquire a mutex the process is already holding.
There are currently no known instances of this under normal
operation, but it _might_ be possible when using a ZVOL as a
swap device. I want to ensure we catch this immediately if it
were to occur.

PF_NOFS is a per-process debug flag which is set in current->flags to
detect when a process is performing an unsafe allocation. All tasks
with PF_NOFS set must strictly use KM_PUSHPAGE for allocations because
if they enter direct reclaim and initiate I/O they may deadlock.
When debugging is disabled, any incorrect usage will be detected and
a call stack with a warning will be printed to the console. The flags
will then be automatically corrected to allow for safe execution. If
debugging is enabled this will be treated as a fatal condition.
To avoid any risk of conflicting with the existing PF_ flags. The
PF_NOFS bit shadows the rarely used PF_MUTEX_TESTER bit. Only when
CONFIG_RT_MUTEX_TESTER is not set, and we know this bit is unused,
will the PF_NOFS bit be valid. Happily, most existing distributions
ship a kernel with CONFIG_RT_MUTEX_TESTER disabled.
