* Support parallel build trees (VPATH builds)Turbo Fredriksson2015-07-171-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Build products from an out of tree build should be written relative to the build directory. Sources should be referred to by their locations in the source directory. This is accomplished by adding the 'src' and 'obj' variables for the module Makefile.am, using relative paths to reference source files, and by setting VPATH when source files are not co-located with the Makefile. This enables the following: $ mkdir build $ cd build $ ../configure \ --with-spl=$HOME/src/git/spl/ \ --with-spl-obj=$HOME/src/git/spl/build $ make -s This change also has the advantage of resolving the following warning which is generated by modern versions of automake.

* Add libzfs_error_init() functionBrian Behlendorf2015-05-221-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | All fprintf() error messages are moved out of the libzfs_init() library function where they never belonged in the first place. A libzfs_error_init() function is added to provide useful error messages for the most common causes of failure. Additionally, in libzfs_run_process() the 'rc' variable was renamed to 'error' for consistency with the rest of the code base.

* Make command line guid parsing more tolerantBrian Behlendorf2014-04-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several of the zfs utilities allow you to pass a vdev's guid rather than the device name. However, the utilities are not consistent in how they parse that guid. For example, 'zinject' expects the guid to be passed as a hex value while 'zpool replace' wants it as a decimal. The user is forced to just know what format to use. This patch improve things by making the parsing more tolerant. When strtol(3) is called using 0 for the base, rather than say 10 or 16, it will then accept hex, decimal, or octal input based on the prefix. From the man page. If base is zero or 16, the string may then include a "0x" prefix, and the number will be read in base 16; otherwise, a zero base is taken as 10 (decimal) unless the next character is '0', in which case it is taken as 8 (octal). NOTE: There may be additional conversions not caught be this patch. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Chris Dunlap <[email protected]> Issue #2

* Generate libraries with correct DT_NEEDED entriesRichard Yao2013-10-101-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Libraries that depend on other libraries should list them in ELF's DT_NEEDED field so that programs linking to them do not need to specify those libraries unless they depend on them as well. This is not the case in the current code and the consequence is that anything that needs a library must know its dependencies. This is fragile and caused GRUB2's configure script to break when a dependency was added on libblkid in libzfs. This resolves that problem by using LIBADD/LDADD to specify libraries in Makefile.am instead of LDFLAGS. This ensures that proper DT_NEEDED entries are generated and prevents GRUB2's configure script from breaking in the presence of a libblkid dependency. This also removes unneeded dependencies from various files. Signed-off-by: Richard Yao <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Issue #1751

* Set zvol discard_granularity to the volblocksize.Etienne Dechamps2012-08-071-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, zvols have a discard granularity set to 0, which suggests to the upper layer that discard requests of arbirarily small size and alignment can be made efficiently. In practice however, ZFS does not handle unaligned discard requests efficiently: indeed, it is unable to free a part of a block. It will write zeros to the specified range instead, which is both useless and inefficient (see dnode_free_range). With this patch, zvol block devices expose volblocksize as their discard granularity, so the upper layer is aware that it's not supposed to send discard requests smaller than volblocksize.

* Move partition scanning from userspace to module.Etienne Dechamps2012-07-171-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, zpool online -e (dynamic vdev expansion) doesn't work on whole disks because we're invoking ioctl(BLKRRPART) from userspace while ZFS still has a partition open on the disk, which results in EBUSY. This patch moves the BLKRRPART invocation from the zpool utility to the module. Specifically, this is done just before opening the device in vdev_disk_open() which is called inside vdev_reopen(). This requires jumping through some hoops to get to the disk device from the partition device, and to make sure we can still open the partition after the BLKRRPART call. Note that this new code path is triggered on dynamic vdev expansion only; other actions, like creating a new pool, are unchanged and still call BLKRRPART from userspace. This change also depends on API changes which are available in 2.6.37 and latter kernels. The build system has been updated to detect this, but there is no compatibility mode for older kernels. This means that online expansion will NOT be available in older kernels. However, it will still be possible to expand the vdev offline. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #808
* Linux 3.4 compat, d_make_root() replaces d_alloc_root()Richard Yao2012-06-111-0/+1

* Add support for DISCARD to ZVOLs.Etienne Dechamps2012-02-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DISCARD (REQ_DISCARD, BLKDISCARD) is useful for thin provisioning. It allows ZVOL clients to discard (unmap, trim) block ranges from a ZVOL, thus optimizing disk space usage by allowing a ZVOL to shrink instead of just grow. We can't use zfs_space() or zfs_freesp() here, since these functions only work on regular files, not volumes. Fortunately we can use the low-level function dmu_free_long_range() which does exactly what we want. Currently the discard operation is not added to the log. That's not a big deal since losing discard requests cannot result in data corruption. It would however result in disk space usage higher than it should be. Thus adding log support to zvol_discard() is probably a good idea for a future improvement. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>

* Improve ZVOL queue behavior.Etienne Dechamps2012-02-071-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Linux block device queue subsystem exposes a number of configurable settings described in Linux block/blk-settings.c. The defaults for these settings are tuned for hard drives, and are not optimized for ZVOLs. Proper configuration of these options would allow upper layers (I/O scheduler) to take better decisions about write merging and ordering. Detailed rationale: - max_hw_sectors is set to unlimited (UINT_MAX). zvol_write() is able to handle writes of any size, so there's no reason to impose a limit. Let the upper layer decide. - max_segments and max_segment_size are set to unlimited. zvol_write() will copy the requests' contents into a dbuf anyway, so the number and size of the segments are irrelevant. Let the upper layer decide. - physical_block_size and io_opt are set to the ZVOL's block size. This has the potential to somewhat alleviate issue #361 for ZVOLs, by warning the upper layers that writes smaller than the volume's block size will be slow. - The NONROT flag is set to indicate this isn't a rotational device. Although the backing zpool might be composed of rotational devices, the resulting ZVOL often doesn't exhibit the same behavior due to the COW mechanisms used by ZFS. Setting this flag will prevent upper layers from making useless decisions (such as reordering writes) based on incorrect assumptions about the behavior of the ZVOL.

* Fix synchronicity for ZVOLs.Etienne Dechamps2012-02-071-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | zvol_write() assumes that the write request must be written to stable storage if rq_is_sync() is true. Unfortunately, this assumption is incorrect. Indeed, "sync" does *not* mean what we think it means in the context of the Linux block layer. This is well explained in linux/fs.h: WRITE: A normal async write. Device will be plugged. WRITE_SYNC: Synchronous write. Identical to WRITE, but passes down the hint that someone will be waiting on this IO shortly. WRITE_FLUSH: Like WRITE_SYNC but with preceding cache flush. WRITE_FUA: Like WRITE_SYNC but data is guaranteed to be on non-volatile media on completion. In other words, SYNC does not *mean* that the write must be on stable storage on completion. It just means that someone is waiting on us to complete the write request. Thus triggering a ZIL commit for each SYNC write request on a ZVOL is unnecessary and harmful for performance. To make matters worse, ZVOL users have no way to express that they actually want data to be written to stable storage, which means the ZIL is broken for ZVOLs. The request for stable storage is expressed by the FUA flag, so we must commit the ZIL after the write if the FUA flag is set. In addition, we must commit the ZIL before the write if the FLUSH flag is set. Also, we must inform the block layer that we actually support FLUSH and FUA.

* Linux 3.1 compat, super_block->s_shrinkBrian Behlendorf2012-01-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Linux 3.1 kernel has introduced the concept of per-filesystem shrinkers which are directly assoicated with a super block. Prior to this change there was one shared global shrinker. The zfs code relied on being able to call the global shrinker when the arc_meta_limit was exceeded. This would cause the VFS to drop references on a fraction of the dentries in the dcache. The ARC could then safely reclaim the memory used by these entries and honor the arc_meta_limit. Unfortunately, when per-filesystem shrinkers were added the old interfaces were made unavailable. This change adds support to use the new per-filesystem shrinker interface so we can continue to honor the arc_meta_limit. The major benefit of the new interface is that we can now target only the zfs filesystem for dentry and inode pruning. Thus we can minimize any impact on the caching of other filesystems. In the context of making this change several other important issues related to managing the ARC were addressed, they include: * The dnlc_reduce_cache() function which was called by the ARC to drop dentries for the Posix layer was replaced with a generic zfs_prune_t callback. The ZPL layer now registers a callback to drop these dentries removing a layering violation which dates back to the Solaris code. This callback can also be used by other ARC consumers such as Lustre. arc_add_prune_callback() arc_remove_prune_callback() * The arc_reduce_dnlc_percent module option has been changed to arc_meta_prune for clarity. The dnlc functions are specific to Solaris's VFS and have already been largely eliminated already. The replacement tunable now represents the number of bytes the prune callback will request when invoked. * Less aggressively invoke the prune callback. We used to call this whenever we exceeded the arc_meta_limit however that's not strictly correct since it results in over zeleous reclaim of dentries and inodes. It is now only called once the arc_meta_limit is exceeded and every effort has been made to evict other data from the ARC cache. * More promptly manage exceeding the arc_meta_limit. When reading meta data in to the cache if a buffer was unable to be recycled notify the arc_reclaim thread to invoke the required prune. * Added arcstat_prune kstat which is incremented when the ARC is forced to request that a consumer prune its cache. Remember this will only occur when the ARC has no other choice. If it can evict buffers safely without invoking the prune callback it will. * This change is also expected to resolve the unexpect collapses of the ARC cache. This would occur because when exceeded just the arc_meta_limit reclaim presure would be excerted on the arc_c value via arc_shrink(). This effectively shrunk the entire cache when really we just needed to reclaim meta data. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #466 Closes #292

* Add backing_device_info per-filesystemBrian Behlendorf2011-08-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a long time now the kernel has been moving away from using the pdflush daemon to write 'old' dirty pages to disk. The primary reason for this is because the pdflush daemon is single threaded and can be a limiting factor for performance. Since pdflush sequentially walks the dirty inode list for each super block any delay in processing can slow down dirty page writeback for all filesystems. The replacement for pdflush is called bdi (backing device info). The bdi system involves creating a per-filesystem control structure each with its own private sets of queues to manage writeback. The advantage is greater parallelism which improves performance and prevents a single filesystem from slowing writeback to the others. For a long time both systems co-existed in the kernel so it wasn't strictly required to implement the bdi scheme. However, as of Linux 2.6.36 kernels the pdflush functionality has been retired. Since ZFS already bypasses the page cache for most I/O this is only an issue for mmap(2) writes which must go through the page cache. Even then adding this missing support for newer kernels was overlooked because there are other mechanisms which can trigger writeback. However, there is one critical case where not implementing the bdi functionality can cause problems. If an application handles a page fault it can enter the balance_dirty_pages() callpath. This will result in the application hanging until the number of dirty pages in the system drops below the dirty ratio. Without a registered backing_device_info for the filesystem the dirty pages will not get written out. Thus the application will hang. As mentioned above this was less of an issue with older kernels because pdflush would eventually write out the dirty pages. This change adds a backing_device_info structure to the zfs_sb_t which is already allocated per-super block. It is then registered when the filesystem mounted and unregistered on unmount. It will not be registered for mounted snapshots which are read-only. This change will result in flush-<pool> thread being dynamically created and destroyed per-mounted filesystem for writeback.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The .get_sb callback has been replaced by a .mount callback in the file_system_type structure. When using the new interface the caller must now use the mount_nodev() helper. Unfortunately, the new interface no longer passes the vfsmount down to the zfs layers. This poses a problem for the existing implementation because we currently save this pointer in the super block for latter use. It provides our only entry point in to the namespace layer for manipulating certain mount options. This needed to be done originally to allow commands like 'zfs set atime=off tank' to work properly. It also allowed me to keep more of the original Solaris code unmodified. Under Solaris there is a 1-to-1 mapping between a mount point and a file system so this is a fairly natural thing to do. However, under Linux they many be multiple entries in the namespace which reference the same filesystem. Thus keeping a back reference from the filesystem to the namespace is complicated. Rather than introduce some ugly hack to get the vfsmount and continue as before. I'm leveraging this API change to update the ZFS code to do things in a more natural way for Linux. This has the upside that is resolves the compatibility issue for the long term and fixes several other minor bugs which have been reported. This commit updates the code to remove this vfsmount back reference entirely. All modifications to filesystem mount options are now passed in to the kernel via a '-o remount'. This is the expected Linux mechanism and allows the namespace to properly handle any options which apply to it before passing them on to the file system itself. Aside from fixing the compatibility issue, removing the vfsmount has had the benefit of simplifying the code. This change which fairly involved has turned out nicely.

* Linux compat 2.6.39: security_inode_init_security()Brian Behlendorf2011-07-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The security_inode_init_security() function now takes an additional qstr argument which must be passed in from the dentry if available. Passing a NULL is safe when no qstr is available the relevant security checks will just be skipped. Closes #246 Closes #217 Closes #187
* Tear down and flush the mmap regionPrasad Joshi2011-06-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The inode eviction should unmap the pages associated with the inode. These pages should also be flushed to disk to avoid the data loss. Therefore, use truncate_setsize() in evict_inode() to release the pagecache. The API truncate_setsize() was added in 2.6.35 kernel. To ensure compatibility with the old kernel, the patch defines its own truncate_setsize function. Signed-off-by: Prasad Joshi <[email protected]> Closes #255
* Always check -Wno-unused-but-set-variable gcc supportBrian Behlendorf2011-06-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The previous commit 8a7e1ceefa430988c8f888ca708ab307333b4464 wasn't quite right. This check applies to both the user and kernel space build and as such we must make sure it runs regardless of what the --with-config option is set too. For example, if --with-config=kernel then the autoconf test does not run and we generate build warnings when compiling the kernel packages.
* Check for -Wno-unused-but-set-variable gcc supportBrian Behlendorf2011-06-141-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Gcc versions 4.3.2 and earlier do not support the compiler flag -Wno-unused-but-set-variable. This can lead to build failures on older Linux platforms such as Debian Lenny. Since this is an optional build argument this changes add a new autoconf check for the option. If it is supported by the installed version of gcc then it is used otherwise it is omited. See commit's 12c1acde76683108441827ae9affba1872f3afe5 and 79713039a2b6e0ed223d141b4a8a8455f282d2f2 for the reason the -Wno-unused-but-set-variable options was originally added.
* Fix 'zfs set volsize=N pool/dataset'Brian Behlendorf2011-05-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change fixes a kernel panic which would occur when resizing a dataset which was not open. The objset_t stored in the zvol_state_t will be set to NULL when the block device is closed. To avoid this issue we pass the correct objset_t as the third arg. The code has also been updated to correctly notify the kernel when the block device capacity changes. For 2.6.28 and newer kernels the capacity change will be immediately detected. For earlier kernels the capacity change will be detected when the device is next opened. This is a known limitation of older kernels. Online ext3 resize test case passes on 2.6.28+ kernels: $ dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/zvol bs=1M count=1 seek=1023 $ zpool create tank /tmp/zvol $ zfs create -V 500M tank/zd0 $ mkfs.ext3 /dev/zd0 $ mkdir /mnt/zd0 $ mount /dev/zd0 /mnt/zd0 $ df -h /mnt/zd0 $ zfs set volsize=800M tank/zd0 $ resize2fs /dev/zd0 $ df -h /mnt/zd0 Original-patch-by: Fajar A.

* Implemented NFS export_operations.Gunnar Beutner2011-04-291-0/+1
| | | | | Implemented the required NFS operations for exporting ZFS datasets using the in-kernel NFS daemon.
* Set -Wno-unused-but-set-variable globallyBrian Behlendorf2011-04-191-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | As of gcc-4.6 the option -Wunused-but-set-variable is enabled by default. While this is a useful warning there are numerous places in the ZFS code when a variable is set and then only checked in an ASSERT(). To avoid having to update every instance of this in the code we now set -Wno-unused-but-set-variable to suppress the warning. Additionally, when building with --enable-debug and -Werror set these warning also become fatal. We can reevaluate the suppression of these error at a later time if it becomes an issue. For now we are basically just reverting to the previous gcc behavior.
* Linux 2.6.28 compat, insert_inode_locked()Brian Behlendorf2011-03-221-0/+1
| | | | | | | Added insert_inode_locked() helper function, prior to this most callers used insert_inode_hash(). The older method doesn't check for collisions in the inode_hashtable but it still acceptible for use. Fallback to using insert_inode_hash() when insert_inode_locked() is unavailable.
* Add init scriptsBrian Behlendorf2011-03-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To support automatically mounting your zfs on filesystem on boot a basic init script is needed. Unfortunately, every distribution has their own idea of the _right_ way to do things. Rather than write one very complicated portable init script, which would be invariably replaced by the distributions own anyway. I have instead added support to provide multiple distribution specific init scripts. The correct init script for your distribution will be selected by ZFS_AC_DEFAULT_PACKAGE which will set DEFAULT_INIT_SCRIPT. During 'make install' the correct script for your system will be installed from zfs/etc/init.d/zfs.DEFAULT_INIT_SCRIPT to the usual /etc/init.d/zfs location. Currently, there is zfs.fedora and a more generic zfs.lsb init script. Hopefully, the distribution maintainers who know best how they want their init scripts to function will feedback their approved versions to be included in the project. This change does not consider upstart jobs but I'm not at all opposed to add that sort of thing.
* Linux 2.6.38 compat, blkdev_get_by_path()Brian Behlendorf2011-02-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The open_bdev_exclusive() function has been replaced (again) by the more generic blkdev_get_by_path() function. Additionally, the counterpart function close_bdev_exclusive() has been replaced by blkdev_put(). Because these functions are more generic versions of the functions they replaced the compatibility macro must add the FMODE_EXCL mask to ensure they are exclusive. Closes #114
* Linux 2.6.36 compat, sops->evict_inode()Brian Behlendorf2011-02-111-0/+1
| | | | | | The new prefered inteface for evicting an inode from the inode cache is the ->evict_inode() callback. It replaces both the ->delete_inode() and ->clear_inode() callbacks which were previously used for this.
* Linux 2.6.35 compat, fops->fsync()Brian Behlendorf2011-02-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | The fsync() callback in the file_operations structure used to take 3 arguments. The callback now only takes 2 arguments because the dentry argument was determined to be unused by all consumers. To handle this a compatibility prototype was added to ensure the right prototype is used. Our implementation never used the dentry argument either so it's just a matter of using the right prototype.
* Linux 2.6.35 compat, const struct xattr_handlerBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | The const keyword was added to the 'struct xattr_handler' in the generic Linux super_block structure. To handle this we define an appropriate xattr_handler_t typedef which can be used. This was the preferred solution because it keeps the code clean and readable.
* Add missing -ldl linker optionBrian Behlendorf2011-02-102-2/+2
| | | | | | The inclusion on dlsym(), dlopen(), and dlclose() symbols require us to link against the dl library. Be careful to add the flag to both the libzfs library and the commands which depend on the library.
* Remove HAVE_ZPL from commands and librariesBrian Behlendorf2011-02-041-4/+0
| | | | | Thanks to the previous few commits we can now build all of the user space commands and libraries with support for the zpl.
* Documentation updatesBrian Behlendorf2011-02-041-1/+1
| | | | | Minor Linux specific documentation updates to the comments and man pages.
