* Linux 4.18.0-257.el8 compat: blk_alloc_queue()Brian Behlendorf2020-12-211-17/+56
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CentOS stream 4.18.0-257 kernel appears to have backported the Linux 5.9 change to make_request_fn and the associated API. To maintain weak modules compatibility the original symbol was retained and the new interface blk_alloc_queue_rh() was added. Unfortunately, blk_alloc_queue() was replaced in the blkdev.h header by blk_alloc_queue_bh() so there doesn't seem to be a way to build new kmods against the old interfces. Even though they appear to still be available for weak module binding. To accommodate this a configure check is added for the new _rh() variant of the function and used if available. If compatibility code gets added to the kernel for the original blk_alloc_queue() interface this should be fine. OpenZFS will simply continue to prefer the new interface and only fallback to blk_alloc_queue() when blk_alloc_queue_rh() isn't available.

* Linux 5.9 compat: make_request_fn replaced with submit_bio interfaceColeman Kane2020-08-111-33/+51
| | | | | | | | | | The make_request_fn and associated API was replaced recently in a Linux 5.9 merge, to replace its functionality with a new submit_bio member in struct block_device_operations.

* Linux 5.7 compat: blk_alloc_queue()Brian Behlendorf2020-04-091-19/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/3d745ea5 simplified the blk_alloc_queue() interface by updating it to take the request queue as an argument. Add a wrapper function which accepts the new arguments and internally uses the available interfaces. Other minor changes include increasing the Linux-Maximum to 5.6 now that 5.6 has been released. It was not bumped to 5.7 because this release has not yet been finalized and is still subject to change. Added local 'struct zvol_state_os *zso' variable to zvol_alloc.

* Linux compat: Minimum kernel version 3.10Brian Behlendorf2019-11-121-40/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #9566
* Perform KABI checks in parallelBrian Behlendorf2019-10-011-0/+77
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. master (secs) patched (secs) ------------- ---------------- autogen.sh 61 68 configure 137 24 (~17% of current run time) make -j $(nproc) 44 44 make rpms 287 150 Reviewed-by: Tony Hutter <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #8547 Closes #9132 Closes #9341
