Deprecate the /usr/bin/hostid call by reading the /etc/hostid file
directly. Add the spl_hostid_path parameter to override the default
/etc/hostid path.
Rename the set_hostid() function to hostid_exec() to better reflect
actual behavior and complement the new hostid_read() function.
Use HW_INVALID_HOSTID as the spl_hostid sentinel value because
zero seems to be a valid gethostid() result on Linux.

While the splat tests were originally designed to stress test
the Solaris primatives. I am extending them to include some kernel
compatibility tests. Certain linux APIs have changed frequently.
These tests ensure that added compatibility is working properly
and no unnoticed regression have slipped in.
Test 1 and 2 add basic regression tests for shrink_icache_memory
and shrink_dcache_memory. These are simply functional tests to
ensure we can call these functions safely. Checking for correct
behavior is more difficult since other running processes will
influence the behavior. However, these functions are provided
by the kernel so if we can successfully call them we assume they
are working correctly.
Test 3 checks that shrinker functions are being registered and
called correctly. As of Linux 3.0 the shrinker API has changed
four different times so I felt the need to add a trivial test
case to ensure each variant works as expected.

Update the the wrapper macros for the memory shrinker to handle
this 4th API change. The callback function now takes a
shrink_control structure. This is certainly a step in the
right direction but it's annoying to have to accomidate yet
another version of the API.

RPM version 4.9.0 has been observed to generate extra debug
messages in certain cases. These debug messages prevent us
from cleanly acquiring the architecture. This is clearly
an upstream RPM bug which will get fixed. But until then
a safe solution is to pipe the result through 'tail -1'
to just grab the architecture bit we care about.
Example 'rpm -qp spl-0.6.0-rc4.src.rpm --qf %{arch}' output:
Freeing read locks for locker 0x166: 28031/47480843735008
Freeing read locks for locker 0x168: 28031/47480843735008

It has become necessary to be able to optionally disable
direct memory reclaim for certain taskqs. To support
this the TASKQ_NORECLAIM flags has been added which sets

The uid_t on most systems is in fact and unsigned 32-bit value.
This is almost always correct, however you could compile your
kernel to use an unsigned 16-bit value for uid_t. In practice
I've never encountered a distribution which does this so I'm
willing to overlook this corner case for now.

Renamed 'struct fid' because its name conflicts with another

The correct definition of MAXOFFSET_T under Solaris is in reality
tied to the maximum size of a 'long long' type. With this in mind
MAXOFFSET_T is now defined as LLONG_MAX which ensures the correct
value is used on both 32-bit and 64-bit systems.

This reverts commit 1814251453c8140f50170ad29d9105c1273d7e08.
Demote the gawk call back to awk and ensure that stderr is attached. GNU gawk
tolerates a missing stderr handle, but many utilities do not, which could be
why a regular awk call was unexplainably failing on some systems.
Use argv[0] instead of sh_path for consistency internally and with other Linux

Provide a call_usermodehelper() alternative by letting the hostid be passed as
a module parameter like this:
$ modprobe spl spl_hostid=0x12345678
Internally change the spl_hostid variable to unsigned long because that is the
type that the coreutils /usr/bin/hostid returns.
Move the hostid command into GET_HOSTID_CMD for consistency with the similar
GET_KALLSYMS_ADDR_CMD invocation.

The function zlib_deflate_workspacesize() now take 2 arguments.
This was done to avoid always having to allocate the maximum size
workspace (268K). The caller can now specific the windowBits and
memLevel compression parameters to get a smaller workspace.
For our purposes we introduce a spl_zlib_deflate_workspacesize()
wrapper which accepts both arguments. When the two argument
version of zlib_deflate_workspacesize() is available the arguments
are passed through. When it's not we assume the worst case and
a maximally sized workspace is used.

The path_lookup() function has been renamed to kern_path_parent()
and the flags argument has been removed. The only behavior now
offered is that of LOOKUP_PARENT. The spl already always passed
this flag so dropping the flag does not impact us.

This is a long over due compatibility change. Way, way, way back
in 2007 there was a push to remove all consumers of SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED.
Finally, in 2011 with 2.6.39 all the consumers have been updated
and SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED was removed. It's about time we use the
new API as well, this change does exactly that. DEFINE_SPINLOCK()
was available as far back as 2.6.12 so there doesn't need to be
any additional autoconf-foo for this change.

Flagged by the default -Wunused-but-set-variable gcc option when

Newer versions of gcc are getting smart enough to detect the sloppy
syntax used for the autoconf tests. It is now generating warnings
for unused/undeclared variables. Newer version of gcc even have
the -Wunused-but-set-variable option set by default. This isn't a
problem except when -Werror is set and they get promoted to an error.
In this case the autoconf test will return an incorrect result which
will result in a build failure latter on.
To handle this I'm tightening up many of the autoconf tests to
explicitly mark variables as unused to suppress the gcc warning.
Remember, all of the autoconf code can never actually be run we
just want to get a clean build error to detect which APIs are
available. Never using a variable is absolutely fine for this.

To resolve a potiential filesystem corruption issue a second
argument was added to invalidate_inodes(). This argument controls
whether dirty inodes are dropped or treated as busy when invalidating
a super block. When only the legacy API is available the second
argument will be dropped for compatibility.

When rebuilding the source RPM under el5 you need to append the
target_cpu. However, under el6/ch5 things are packaged correctly
and the arch is already part of kver. For this reason it also
needs to be stripped from kver when setting kverpkg.

Provide the dnlc_reduce_cache() function which attempts to prune
cached entries from the dcache and icache. After the entries are
pruned any slabs which they may have been using are reaped.
Note the API takes a reclaim percentage but we don't have easy
access to the total number of cache entries to calculate the
reclaim count. However, in practice this doesn't need to be
exactly correct. We simply need to reclaim some useful fraction
(but not all) of the cache. The caller can determine if more
needs to be done.

By decreasing the number of target objects per slab we increase
the likelyhood that a slab can be freed. This reduces the level
of fragmentation in the slab which has been observed to be a
problem for certain workloads. The penalty for this is that we
also decrease the speed which need objects can be allocated.

One of the most common things you want to know when looking at
the slab is how much memory is being used. This information was
available in /proc/spl/kmem/slab but only on a per-slab basis.
This commit adds the following /proc/sys/kernel/spl/kmem/slab*
entries to make total slab usage easily available at a glance.
slab_kmem_total - Total kmem slab size
slab_kmem_avail - Alloc'd kmem slab size
slab_kmem_max - Max observed kmem slab size
slab_vmem_total - Total vmem slab size
slab_vmem_avail - Alloc'd vmem slab size
slab_vmem_max - Max observed vmem slab size
NOTE: The slab_*_max values are expected to over report because
they show maximum values since boot, not current values.

The 'slab_fail', 'slab_create', and 'slab_destroy' columns in the slab
output have been removed because they are virtually always zero and
not very useful.
The much more useful 'size' and 'alloc' columns have been added which
show the total slab size and how much of the total size has been
allocated to objects.
Finally, the formatting has been updated to be much more human
readable while still being friendly for tool like awk to parse.

The Linux shrinker has gone through three API changes since 2.6.22.
Rather than force every caller to understand all three APIs this
change consolidates the compatibility code in to the mm-compat.h
header. The caller then can then use a single spl provided
shrinker API which does the right thing for your kernel.
SPL_SHRINKER_CALLBACK_PROTO(shrinker_callback, cb, nr_to_scan, gfp_mask);
SPL_SHRINKER_DECLARE(shrinker_struct, shrinker_callback, seeks);
spl_register_shrinker(&shrinker_struct);
spl_unregister_shrinker(&&shrinker_struct);
spl_exec_shrinker(&shrinker_struct, nr_to_scan, gfp_mask);

While this extra structure memory does not exist under Solaris
it is needed under Linux to pass the dentry. This allows the
dentry to be easily instantiated before the inode is unlocked.

Solaris credentials don't have an fsuid/fsguid field but Linux
credentials do. To handle this case the Solaris API is being
modestly extended to include the crgetfsuid()/crgetfsgid()
helper functions.
Addititionally, because the crget*() helpers are implemented
identically regardless of HAVE_CRED_STRUCT they have been
moved outside the #ifdef to common code. This simplification
means we only have one version of the helper to keep to to date.

Certain stock kernels (Debian Lenny) are built with zlib_inflate.ko
as a kernel module. To ensure 'make check' works in-tree load this
module before loading the spl module. This is now required for the

As part of vmalloc() a __pte_alloc_kernel() allocation may occur. This
internal allocation does not honor the gfp flags passed to vmalloc().
This means even when vmalloc(GFP_NOFS) is called it is possible that a
synchronous reclaim will occur. This reclaim can trigger file IO which
can result in a deadlock. This issue can be avoided by explicitly
setting PF_MEMALLOC on the process to subvert synchronous reclaim when
vmalloc() is called with !__GFP_FS.
An example stack of the deadlock can be found here (1), along with the
upstream kernel bug (2), and the original bug discussion on the
linux-mm mailing list (3). This code can be properly autoconf'ed
when the upstream bug is fixed.

As originally described in commit 82b8c8fa64737edfb203156b245b48840139d2c1
this was done to prevent certain deadlocks from occuring in the system.
However, as suspected the price for doing this proved to be too high.
The VM is having a hard time effectively reclaiming memory thus we are
reverting this change.
However, we still need to fundamentally handle the issue. Under
Solaris the KM_PUSHPAGE mask is used commonly in I/O paths to ensure
a memory allocations will succeed. We leverage this fact and redefine
KM_PUSHPAGE to include GFP_NOFS. This ensures that in these common
I/O path we don't trigger additional reclaim. This minimizes the
change to the Solaris code.

Detect early on in configure if the Modules.symvers file is missing.
Without this file there will be build failures later and it's best
to catch this early and provide a useful error. In this case the
most likely problem is the kernel-devel packages are not installed.
It may also be possible that they are using an unbuilt custom kernel
in which case they must build the kernel first.
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Until support is added for preemptible kernels detect this at
configure time and make it fatal. Otherwise, it is possible to
have a successful build and kernel modules with flakey behavior.

The xvattr support in the spl has always simply consisted of
defining a couple structures and a few #defines. This was enough
to enable compilation of code which just passed xvattr types
around but not enough to effectively manipulate them.
This change removes even this minimal support leaving it up
to packages which leverage the spl to prove the full xvattr
support. By removing it from the spl we ensure not conflict
with the higher level packages.
This just leaves minimal vnode support for basical manipulation
of files. This code is does have the proper support functions
in the spl and a set of regression tests.
Additionally, this change removed the unused 'caller_context_t *'
type and replaces it with a 'void *'.

A zlib regression test has been added to verify the correct behavior
of z_compress_level() and z_uncompress. The test case simply takes
a 128k buffer, it compresses the buffer, it them uncompresses the
buffer, and finally it compares the buffers after the transform.
If the buffers match then everything is fine and no data was lost.
It performs this test for all 9 zlib compression levels.

While portions of the code needed to support z_compress_level() and
z_uncompress() where in place. In reality the current implementation
was non-functional, it just was compilable.
The critical missing component was to setup a workspace for the
compress/uncompress stream structures to use. A kmem_cache was
added for the workspace area because we require a large chunk
of memory. This avoids to need to continually alloc/free this
memory and vmap() the pages which is very slow. Several objects
will reside in the per-cpu kmem_cache making them quick to acquire
and release. A further optimization would be to adjust the
implementation to additional ensure the memory is local to the cpu.
Currently that may not be the case.

In the 2.6.37 kernel the function invalidate_inodes() is no longer
exported for use by modules. This memory management functionality
is needed to invalidate the inodes attached to a super block without
unmounting the filesystem.
Because this function still exists in the kernel and the prototype
is available is a common header all we strictly need is the symbol
address. The address is obtained using spl_kallsyms_lookup_name()
and assigned to the variable invalidate_inodes_fn. Then a #define
is used to replace all instances of invalidate_inodes() with a
call to the acquired address. All the complexity is hidden behind
HAVE_INVALIDATE_INODES and invalidate_inodes() can be used as usual.
Long term we should try to get this, or another, interface made
available to modules again.

Previously we would ASSERT in cv_destroy() if it was ever called
with active waiters. However, I've now seen several instances in
OpenSolaris code where they do the following:
cv_broadcast();
cv_destroy();
This leaves no time for active waiters to be woken up and scheduled
and we trip the ASSERT. This has not been observed to be an issue
on OpenSolaris because their cv_destroy() basically does nothing.
They still do run the risk of the memory being free'd after the
cv_destroy() and hitting a bad paging request. But in practice
this race is so small and unlikely it either doesn't happen, or
is so unlikely when it does happen the root cause has not yet been
identified.
Rather than risk the same issue in our code this change updates
cv_destroy() to block until all waiters have been woken and
scheduled. This may take some time because each waiter must
acquire the mutex.
This change may have an impact on performance for frequently
created and destroyed condition variables. That however is a price
worth paying it avoid crashing your system. If performance issues
are observed they can be addressed by the caller.

Simply add the policy function wrappers. They are completely
non-functional and always return that everything is OK, but once
again they simplify compilation of dependent packages for now.
These can/should be removed once the security policy of the

each type.
