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.

Added the necessary build infrastructure for building packages
compatible with the Arch Linux distribution. As such, one can now run:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg # Alternatively, one can run 'make arch' as well
on the Arch Linux machine to create two binary packages compatible with
the pacman package manager, one for the zfs userland utilities and
another for the zfs kernel modules. The new packages can then be
installed by running:
# pacman -U $package.pkg.tar.xz
In addition, source-only packages suitable for an Arch Linux chroot
environment or remote builder can also be build using the 'sarch' make
rule.
NOTE: Since the source dist tarball is created on the fly from the head
of the build tree, it's MD5 hash signature will be continually influx.
As a result, the md5sum variable was intentionally omitted from the
PKGBUILD files, and the '--skipinteg' makepkg option is used. This may
or may not have any serious security implications, as the source tarball
is not being downloaded from an outside source.

Update the code to use the bdi_setup_and_register() helper to
simplify the bdi integration code. The updated code now just
registers the bdi during mount and destroys it during unmount.
The only complication is that for 2.6.32 - 2.6.33 kernels the
helper wasn't available so in these cases the zfs code must
provide it. Luckily the bdi_setup_and_register() function
is trivial.

This change moves the default install location for the zfs udev
rules from /etc/udev/ to /lib/udev/. The correct convention is
for rules provided by a package to be installed in /lib/udev/.
The /etc/udev/ directory is reserved for custom rules or local
overrides.
Additionally, this patch cleans up some abuse of the bindir install
location by adding a udevdir and udevruledir install directories.
This allows us to revert to the default bin install location. The
udev install directories can be set with the following new options.
--with-udevdir=DIR install udev helpers [EPREFIX/lib/udev]
--with-udevruledir=DIR install udev rules [UDEVDIR/rules.d]

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

This commit fixes issue on
https://github.com/behlendorf/zfs/issues/#issue/172
Changes:
- update BLKZNAME to use _IOR instead of _IO. Kernel 2.6.32 allows
read parameters (copy_to_user) with _IO, while newer kernels (tested
Archlinux's 2.6.37 kernel) enforces _IOR (which is correct)
- fix return code and message on error

used insert_inode_hash(). The older method doesn't check for collisions
in the inode_hashtable but it still acceptible for use. Fallback to

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.

With the removal of the minimal xvattr support from the spl this
support needs to be replaced in the zfs package. This is fairly
easily accomplished by directly adding portions of the sys/vnode.h
header from OpenSolaris. These xvattr additions have been placed
in the sys/xvattr.h header file and included as needed where simply
a sys/vnode.h was included before.
In additon to the xvattr types and helper macros two functions
were also included. The xva_init() and xva_getxoptattr() functions
were included as static inline functions in xvattr.h. They are
simple enough and it was simpler to place them here rather than
in their own .c file.

This commit allows zvols with names longer than 32 characters, which
fixes issue on https://github.com/behlendorf/zfs/issues/#issue/102.
Changes include:
- use /dev/zd* device names for zvol, where * is the device minor
(include/sys/fs/zfs.h, module/zfs/zvol.c).
- add BLKZNAME ioctl to get dataset name from userland
(include/sys/fs/zfs.h, module/zfs/zvol.c, cmd/zvol_id).
- add udev rule to create /dev/zvol/[dataset_name] and the legacy
/dev/[dataset_name] symlink. For partitions on zvol, it will create
/dev/zvol/[dataset_name]-part* (etc/udev/rules.d/60-zvol.rules,
cmd/zvol_id).
