* Call udevadm trigger more safelyNed Bass2011-04-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some udev hooks are not designed to be idempotent, so calling udevadm trigger outside of the distribution's initialization scripts can have unexpected (and potentially dangerous) side effects. For example, the system time may change or devices may appear multiple times. See Ubuntu launchpad bug 320200 and this mailing list post for more details: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2009-January/027260.html To avoid these problems we call udevadm trigger with --action=change --subsystem-match=block. The first argument tells udev just to refresh devices, and make sure everything's as it should be. The second argument limits the scope to block devices, so devices belonging to other subsystems cannot be affected. This doesn't fix the problem on older udev implementations that don't provide udevadm but instead have udevtrigger as a standalone program. In this case the above options aren't available so there's no way to call call udevtrigger safely. But we can live with that since this issue only exists in optional test and helper scripts, and most zfs-on-linux users are running newer systems anyways.
* 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.
* Minimal libshare infrastructureBrian Behlendorf2011-02-041-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ZFS even under Solaris does not strictly require libshare to be available. The current implementation attempts to dlopen() the library to access the needed symbols. If this fails libshare support is simply disabled. This means that on Linux we only need the most minimal libshare implementation. In fact just enough to prevent the build from failing. Longer term we can decide if we want to implement a libshare library like Solaris. At best this would be an abstraction layer between ZFS and NFS/SMB. Alternately, we can drop libshare entirely and directly integrate ZFS with Linux's NFS/SMB. Finally the bare bones user-libshare.m4 test was dropped. If we do decide to implement libshare at some point it will surely be as part of this package so the check is not needed.
* Autoconf selinux supportBrian Behlendorf2011-01-281-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If libselinux is detected on your system at configure time link against it. This allows us to use a library call to detect if selinux is enabled and if it is to pass the mount option: "context=\"system_u:object_r:file_t:s0" For now this is required because none of the existing selinux policies are aware of the zfs filesystem type. Because of this they do not properly enable xattr based labeling even though zfs supports all of the required hooks. Until distro's add zfs as a known xattr friendly fs type we must use mntpoint labeling. Alternately, end users could modify their existing selinux policy with a little guidance.
* Add FAILFAST supportBrian Behlendorf2010-10-121-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ZFS works best when it is notified as soon as possible when a device failure occurs. This allows it to immediately start any recovery actions which may be needed. In theory Linux supports a flag which can be set on bio's called FAILFAST which provides this quick notification by disabling the retry logic in the lower scsi layers. That's the theory at least. In practice is turns out that while the flag exists you oddly have to set it with the BIO_RW_AHEAD flag. And even when it's set it you may get retries in the low level drivers decides that's the right behavior, or if you don't get the right error codes reported to the scsi midlayer. Unfortunately, without additional kernels patchs there's not much which can be done to improve this. Basically, this just means that it may take 2-3 minutes before a ZFS is notified properly that a device has failed. This can be improved and I suspect I'll be submitting patches upstream to handle this.
* Add [-m map] option to zpool_layoutBrian Behlendorf2010-09-171-17/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By default the zpool_layout command would always use the slot number assigned by Linux when generating the zdev.conf file. This is a reasonable default there are cases when it makes sense to remap the slot id assigned by Linux using your own custom mapping. This commit adds support to zpool_layout to provide a custom slot mapping file. The file contains in the first column the Linux slot it and in the second column the custom slot mapping. By passing this map file with '-m map' to zpool_config the mapping will be applied when generating zdev.conf. Additionally, two sample mapping have been added which reflect different ways to map the slots in the dragon drawers.
* Support custom build directories and move includesBrian Behlendorf2010-09-081-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the neat tricks an autoconf style project is capable of is allow configurion/building in a directory other than the source directory. The major advantage to this is that you can build the project various different ways while making changes in a single source tree. For example, this project is designed to work on various different Linux distributions each of which work slightly differently. This means that changes need to verified on each of those supported distributions perferably before the change is committed to the public git repo. Using nfs and custom build directories makes this much easier. I now have a single source tree in nfs mounted on several different systems each running a supported distribution. When I make a change to the source base I suspect may break things I can concurrently build from the same source on all the systems each in their own subdirectory. wget -c http://github.com/downloads/behlendorf/zfs/zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz tar -xzf zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz cd zfs-x-y-z ------------------------- run concurrently ---------------------- <ubuntu system> <fedora system> <debian system> <rhel6 system> mkdir ubuntu mkdir fedora mkdir debian mkdir rhel6 cd ubuntu cd fedora cd debian cd rhel6 ../configure ../configure ../configure ../configure make make make make make check make check make check make check This change also moves many of the include headers from individual incude/sys directories under the modules directory in to a single top level include directory. This has the advantage of making the build rules cleaner and logically it makes a bit more sense.
* Add initial autoconf productsBrian Behlendorf2010-08-311-0/+506
| | | | | | | Add the initial products from autogen.sh. These products will be updated incrementally after this point as development occurs. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>
* Add build systemBrian Behlendorf2010-08-312-0/+128
Add autoconf style build infrastructure to the ZFS tree. This includes autogen.sh, configure.ac, m4 macros, some scripts/*, and makefiles for all the core ZFS components.
