Increase the minimum supported kernel version from 2.6.32 to 3.10.
This removes support for the following Linux enterprise distributions.
Distribution | Kernel | End of Life
---------------- | ------ | -------------
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 3.2 | Apr 28, 2017
SLES 11 | 3.0 | Mar 32, 2019
RHEL / CentOS 6 | 2.6.32 | Nov 30, 2020
The following changes were made as part of removing support.
* Updated `configure` to enforce a minimum kernel version as
specified in the META file (Linux-Minimum: 3.10).
configure: error:
*** Cannot build against kernel version 2.6.32.
*** The minimum supported kernel version is 3.10.
* Removed all `configure` kABI checks and matching C code for
interfaces which solely predate the Linux 3.10 kernel.
* Updated all `configure` kABI checks to fail when an interface is
missing which was in the 3.10 kernel up to the latest 5.1 kernel.
Removed the HAVE_* preprocessor defines for these checks and
updated the code to unconditionally use the verified interface.
* Inverted the detection logic in several kABI checks to match
the new interface as it appears in 3.10 and newer and not the
legacy interface.
* Consolidated the following checks in to individual files. Due
the large number of changes in the checks it made sense to handle
this now. It would be desirable to group other related checks in
the same fashion, but this as left as future work.
- config/kernel-blkdev.m4 - Block device kABI checks
- config/kernel-blk-queue.m4 - Block queue kABI checks
- config/kernel-bio.m4 - Bio interface kABI checks
* Removed the kABI checks for sops->nr_cached_objects() and
sops->free_cached_objects(). These interfaces are currently unused.

Reduce the time required for ./configure to perform the needed
KABI checks by allowing kbuild to compile multiple test cases in
parallel. This was accomplished by splitting each test's source
code from the logic handling whether that code could be compiled
or not.
By introducing this split it's possible to minimize the number of
times kbuild needs to be invoked. As importantly, it means all of
the tests can be built in parallel. This does require a little extra
care since we expect some tests to fail, so the --keep-going (-k)
option must be provided otherwise some tests may not get compiled.
Furthermore, since a failure during the kbuild modpost phase will
result in an early exit; the final linking phase is limited to tests
which passed the initial compilation and produced an object file.
Once everything has been built the configure script proceeds as
previously. The only significant difference is that it now merely
needs to test for the existence of a .ko file to determine the
result of a given test. This vastly speeds up the entire process.
New test cases should use ZFS_LINUX_TEST_SRC to declare their test
source code and ZFS_LINUX_TEST_RESULT to check the result. All of
the existing kernel-*.m4 files have been updated accordingly, see
config/kernel-current-time.m4 for a basic example. The legacy
ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE macro has been kept to handle special cases
but it's use is not encouraged.

Without plugging, the default 'noop' scheduler will not merge
the BIOs which are part of a large ZIO.

Prior to b39c22b, which was first generally available in the 0.6.5
release as b39c22b, ZoL never actually submitted synchronous read or write
requests to the Linux block layer. This means the vdev_disk_dio_is_sync()
function had always returned false and, therefore, the completion in
dio_request_t.dr_comp was never actually used.
In b39c22b, synchronous ZIO operations were translated to synchronous
BIO requests in vdev_disk_io_start(). The follow-on commits 5592404 and
aa159af fixed several problems introduced by b39c22b. In particular,
5592404 introduced the new flag parameter "wait" to __vdev_disk_physio()
but under ZoL, since vdev_disk_physio() is never actually used, the wait
flag was always zero so the new code had no effect other than to cause
a bug in the use of the dio_request_t.dr_comp which was fixed by aa159af.
The original rationale for introducing synchronous operations in b39c22b
was to hurry certains requests through the BIO layer which would have
otherwise been subject to its unplug timer which would increase the
latency. This behavior of the unplug timer, however, went away during the
transition of the plug/unplug system between kernels 2.6.32 and 2.6.39.
To handle the unplug timer behavior on 2.6.32-2.6.35 kernels the
BIO_RW_UNPLUG flag is used as a hint to suppress the plugging behavior.
For kernels 2.6.36-2.6.38, the REQ_UNPLUG macro will be available and
ise used for the same purpose.
