* Add zstd support to zfsMichael Niewöhner2020-08-201-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This PR adds two new compression types, based on ZStandard: - zstd: A basic ZStandard compression algorithm Available compression. Levels for zstd are zstd-1 through zstd-19, where the compression increases with every level, but speed decreases. - zstd-fast: A faster version of the ZStandard compression algorithm zstd-fast is basically a "negative" level of zstd. The compression decreases with every level, but speed increases. Available compression levels for zstd-fast: - zstd-fast-1 through zstd-fast-10 - zstd-fast-20 through zstd-fast-100 (in increments of 10) - zstd-fast-500 and zstd-fast-1000 For more information check the man page. Implementation details: Rather than treat each level of zstd as a different algorithm (as was done historically with gzip), the block pointer `enum zio_compress` value is simply zstd for all levels, including zstd-fast, since they all use the same decompression function. The compress= property (a 64bit unsigned integer) uses the lower 7 bits to store the compression algorithm (matching the number of bits used in a block pointer, as the 8th bit was borrowed for embedded block pointers). The upper bits are used to store the compression level. It is necessary to be able to determine what compression level was used when later reading a block back, so the concept used in LZ4, where the first 32bits of the on-disk value are the size of the compressed data (since the allocation is rounded up to the nearest ashift), was extended, and we store the version of ZSTD and the level as well as the compressed size. This value is returned when decompressing a block, so that if the block needs to be recompressed (L2ARC, nop-write, etc), that the same parameters will be used to result in the matching checksum. All of the internal ZFS code ( `arc_buf_hdr_t`, `objset_t`, `zio_prop_t`, etc.) uses the separated _compress and _complevel variables. Only the properties ZAP contains the combined/bit-shifted value. The combined value is split when the compression_changed_cb() callback is called, and sets both objset members (os_compress and os_complevel). The userspace tools all use the combined/bit-shifted value. Additional notes: zdb can now also decode the ZSTD compression header (flag -Z) and inspect the size, version and compression level saved in that header. For each record, if it is ZSTD compressed, the parameters of the decoded compression header get printed. ZSTD is included with all current tests and new tests are added as-needed. Per-dataset feature flags now get activated when the property is set. If a compression algorithm requires a feature flag, zfs activates the feature when the property is set, rather than waiting for the first block to be born. This is currently only used by zstd but can be extended as needed.

* Linux 5.9 compat: add linux/blkdev.h includeColeman Kane2020-08-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Many of the block device operations (often functions with bdev in the name) were moved into linux/blkdev.h from linux/fs.h. Seems that this header is already included where needed in the code, but in the autoconf tests it was missing causing false negatives. This commit has those tests include linux/fs.h (old location) and now also linux/blkdev.h (new locations).

* Update build system and packagingBrian Behlendorf2018-05-291-90/+299
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Minimal changes required to integrate the SPL sources in to the ZFS repository build infrastructure and packaging. Build system and packaging: * Renamed SPL_* autoconf m4 macros to ZFS_*. * Removed redundant SPL_* autoconf m4 macros. * Updated the RPM spec files to remove SPL package dependency. * The zfs package obsoletes the spl package, and the zfs-kmod package obsoletes the spl-kmod package. * The zfs-kmod-devel* packages were updated to add compatibility symlinks under /usr/src/spl-x.y.z until all dependent packages can be updated. They will be removed in a future release. * Updated copy-builtin script for in-kernel builds. * Updated DKMS package to include the spl.ko. * Updated stale AUTHORS file to include all contributors. * Updated stale COPYRIGHT and included the SPL as an exception. * Renamed README.markdown to README.md * Renamed OPENSOLARIS.LICENSE to LICENSE. * Renamed DISCLAIMER to NOTICE. Required code changes: * Removed redundant HAVE_SPL macro. * Removed _BOOT from nvpairs since it doesn't apply for Linux. * Initial header cleanup (removal of empty headers, refactoring). * Remove SPL repository clone/build from zimport.sh. * Use of DEFINE_RATELIMIT_STATE and DEFINE_SPINLOCK removed due to build issues when forcing C99 compilation. * Replaced legacy ACCESS_ONCE with READ_ONCE. * Include needed headers for `current` and `EXPORT_SYMBOL`.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Correct spelling mistakes in the AUTHORS and DISCLAIMER files, and update the README.markdown file to credit Illumos and mention that the ZPL is finished. The README.markdown file is also the first impression for a handful of new users that discover ZoL through a web search because it doubles as the splash page for the Github repository. The build blurbs are therefore removed because these people should be encouraged to visit the regular home page before installing the product.

* Add "ashift" property to zpool createChristian Kohlschütter2011-06-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some disks with internal sectors larger than 512 bytes (e.g., 4k) can suffer from bad write performance when ashift is not configured correctly. This is caused by the disk not reporting its actual sector size, but a sector size of 512 bytes. The drive may behave this way for compatibility reasons. For example, the WDC WD20EARS disks are known to exhibit this behavior. When creating a zpool, ZFS takes that wrong sector size and sets the "ashift" property accordingly (to 9: 1<<9=512), whereas it should be set to 12 for 4k sectors (1<<12=4096). This patch allows an adminstrator to manual specify the known correct ashift size at 'zpool create' time. This can significantly improve performance in certain cases. However, it will have an impact on your total pool capacity. See the updated ashift property description in the zpool.8 man page for additional details. Valid values for the ashift property range from 9 to 17 (512B-128KB). Additionally, you may set the ashift to 0 if you wish to auto-detect the sector size based on what the disk reports, this is the default behavior. The most common ashift values are 9 and 12. Example: zpool create -o ashift=12 tank raidz2 sda sdb sdc sdd Closes #280 Original-patch-by: Richard Laager <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>

* Add dracut supportManuel Amador (Rudd-O)2011-03-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To simplify the process of using zfs as your root filesystem a zfs-drucat sub-package has been added. This sub-package adds a zfs dracut module which allows your initramfs to be rebuilt with zfs support. The process for doing this is still complicated but there is clearly interest from the community about getting this working well and documented. This should help lay some of the groundwork. Longer term these changes should be pushed in the upstream dracut package. Once that occurs this subpackage will no longer be required for new systems, however we may want to conditionally build this package in the future for systems running older dracut versions.
