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 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.

Preferentially use the /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/source and

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
dependent application is completely understood and intergrade
as appropriate with Linux.
|
|
|
|
|

Dependent packages require the following missing headers to
simplify compilation. The headers are basically just stubbed
out with minimal content required.

The following flags are use to get the proper mask when getting
and setting ACLs. I'm hopeful this can all largely go away at
some point.
We also add a define for the maximum number of ACL entries.
MAX_ACL_ENTRIES is used as the maximum number of entries for
each type.

For Linux the maximum uid can vary depending on how your kernel
is built. The Linux kernel still can be compiled with 16 but uids
and gids, although I'm not aware of a major distribution which does
this (maybe an embedded one?). Given that caviot it is reasonably
safe to define the MAXUID as 2147483647.

Previously these were defined to noops but rather than give
the misleading impression that these are actually implemented

Both of these caches were previously allowed to be either a

Since we know the object won't be to large and performce is
much better for a kmem cache for them to be kmem backed.

The cv_timedwait() function by definition must wait unconditionally
for cv_signal()/cv_broadcast() before waking. This causes processes
to go in the D state which increases the load average. The load
average is the summation of processes in D state and run queue.
To avoid this it can be desirable to sleep interruptibly. These
processes do not count against the load average but may be woken by
a signal. It is up to the caller to determine why the process
was woken it may be for one of three reasons.
1) cv_signal()/cv_broadcast()
2) the timeout expired
3) a signal was received

Create spl_inode_lock/spl_inode_unlock compability macros to simply
access to the inode mutex/sem. This avoids the need to have to ugly
up the code with the required #define's at every call site. At the
moment the SPL only uses this in one place but higher layers can
benefit from the macro.

To validate the correct behavior of the TSD interfaces it's
important that we add a regression test. This test is designed
to minimally exercise the fundamental TSD behavior, it does not
attempt to validate all potential corner cases.
The test will first create 32 keys via tsd_create() and register
a common destructor. Next 16 wait threads will be created each
of which set/verify a random value for all 32 keys, then block
waiting to be released by the control thread. Meanwhile the
control thread verifies that none of the destructors have been
run prematurely.
The next phase of the test is to create 16 exit threads which
set/verify a random value for all 32 keys. They then immediately
exit. This is is designed to verify tsd_exit() which will be
called via thread_exit(). This must result in all registered
destructors being run and the memory for the tsd being free'd.
After this tsd_destroy() is verified by destroying all 32 keys.
Once again we must see the expected number of destructors run
and the tsd memory free'd. At this point the blocked threads
are released and they exit calling tsd_exit() which should do
very little since all the tsd has already been destroyed.
If this all goes off without a hitch the test passes. To ensure
no memory has been leaked, I have manually verified that after
spl module unload no memory is reported leaked.

Thread specific data has implemented using a hash table, this avoids
the need to add a member to the task structure and allows maximum
portability between kernels. This implementation has been optimized
to keep the tsd_set() and tsd_get() times as small as possible.
The majority of the entries in the hash table are for specific tsd
entries. These entries are hashed by the product of their key and
pid because by design the key and pid are guaranteed to be unique.
Their product also has the desirable properly that it will be uniformly
distributed over the hash bins providing neither the pid nor key is zero.
Under linux the zero pid is always the init process and thus won't be
used, and this implementation is careful to never to assign a zero key.
By default the hash table is sized to 512 bins which is expected to
be sufficient for light to moderate usage of thread specific data.
The hash table contains two additional type of entries. They first
type is entry is called a 'key' entry and it is added to the hash during
tsd_create(). It is used to store the address of the destructor function
and it is used as an anchor point. All tsd entries which use the same
key will be linked to this entry. This is used during tsd_destory() to
quickly call the destructor function for all tsd associated with the key.
The 'key' entry may be looked up with tsd_hash_search() by passing the
key you wish to lookup and DTOR_PID constant as the pid.
The second type of entry is called a 'pid' entry and it is added to the
hash the first time a process set a key. The 'pid' entry is also used
as an anchor and all tsd for the process will be linked to it. This
list is using during tsd_exit() to ensure all registered destructors
are run for the process. The 'pid' entry may be looked up with
tsd_hash_search() by passing the PID_KEY constant as the key, and
the process pid. Note that tsd_exit() is called by thread_exit()
so if your using the Solaris thread API you should not need to call
tsd_exit() directly.

When HAVE_MUTEX_OWNER and CONFIG_SMP are defined, kmutex_t is just
a typedef for struct mutex.
This is generally OK but has the downside that it can make mistakes
such as mutex_lock(&kmutex_var) to pass by unnoticed until someone
compiles the code without HAVE_MUTEX_OWNER or CONFIG_SMP (in which
case kmutex_t is a real struct). Note that the correct API to call
should have been mutex_enter() rather than mutex_lock().
We prevent these kind of mistakes by making kmutex_t a real structure
with only one field. This makes kmutex_t typesafe and it shouldn't
have any impact on the generated assembly code.

For debugging purposes the condition varaibles keep track of the
mutex used during a wait. The idea is to validate that all callers
always use the same mutex. Unfortunately, we have seen cases where
the caller reuses the condition variable with a different mutex but
in a way which is known to be safe. My reading of the man pages
suggests you should not do this and always cv_destroy()/cv_init()
a new mutex. However, there is overhead in doing this and it does
appear to be allowed under Solaris.
To accomidate this behavior cv_wait_common() and __cv_timedwait()
have been modified to clear the associated mutex when the last
waiter is dropped. This ensures that while the condition variable
is in use the incorrect mutex case is detected. It also allows the
condition variable to be safely recycled without requiring the
overhead of a cv_destroy()/cv_init() as long as it isn't currently
in use.
Finally, spin lock cv->cv_lock was removed because it is not required.
When the condition variable is used properly the caller will always
be holding the mutex so the spin lock is redundant. The lock was
originally added because I expected to need to protect more than
just the cv->cv_mutex. It turns out that was not the case.

The ZFS module returns ENOTSUP for several error conditions where an operation
is not (yet) supported. The SPL defined ENOTSUP in terms of ENOTSUPP, but that
is an internal Linux kernel error code that should not be seen by user
programs. As a result the zfs utilities print a confusing error message if an
unsupported operation is attempted:
internal error: Unknown error 524
Aborted
This change defines ENOTSUP in terms of EOPNOTSUPP which is consistent with
user space.

As of linux-2.6.36 the last in-tree consumer of fops->ioctl() has
been removed and thus fops()->ioctl() has also been removed. The
replacement hook is fops->unlocked_ioctl() which has existed in
kernel since 2.6.12. Since the SPL only contains support back
to 2.6.18 vintage kernels, I'm not adding an autoconf check for
this and simply moving everything to use fops->unlocked_ioctl().
