* Linux compat: Minimum kernel version 3.10Brian Behlendorf2019-11-121-81/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Behlendorf2019-10-011-193/+249
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

* Linux 4.5 compat: Use xattr_handler->name for aclChunwei Chen2016-04-251-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux 4.5 added member "name" to xattr_handler. xattr_handler which matches to whole name rather than prefix should use "name" instead of "prefix". Otherwise, kernel will return with EINVAL when it tries to resolve handlers. Also, we remove the strcmp checks when xattr_handler has name, because xattr_resolve_name will do the check for us.

* Linux 4.5 compat: xattr list handlerBrian Behlendorf2016-01-201-58/+170
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The registered xattr .list handler was simplified in the 4.5 kernel to only perform a permission check. Given a dentry for the file it must return a boolean indicating if the name is visible. This differs slightly from the previous APIs which also required the function to copy the name in to the provided list and return its size. That is now all the responsibility of the caller. This should be straight forward change to make to ZoL since we've always required the caller to make the copy. However, this was slightly complicated by the need to support 3 older APIs. Yes, between 2.6.32 and 4.5 there are 4 versions of this interface! Therefore, while the functional change in this patch is small it includes significant cleanup to make the code understandable and maintainable. These changes include: - Improved configure checks for .list, .get, and .set interfaces. - Interfaces checked from newest to oldest. - Strict checking for each possible known interface. - Configure fails when no known interface is available. - HAVE_*_XATTR_LIST renamed HAVE_XATTR_LIST_* for consistency with similar iops and fops configure checks. - POSIX_ACL_XATTR_{DEFAULT|ACCESS} were removed forcing callers to move to their replacements, XATTR_NAME_POSIX_ACL_{DEFAULT|ACCESS}. Compatibility wrapper were added for old kernels. - ZPL_XATTR_LIST_WRAPPER added which behaves the same as the existing ZPL_XATTR_{GET|SET} WRAPPERs. Only the inode is guaranteed to be a valid pointer, passing NULL for the 'list' and 'name' variables is allowed and must be checked for. All .list functions were updated to use the wrapper to aid readability. - zpl_xattr_filldir() updated to use the .list function for its permission check which is consistent with the updated Linux 4.5 interface. If a .list function is registered it should return 0 to indicate a name should be skipped, if there is no registered function the name will be added. - Additional documentation from xattr(7) describing the correct behavior for each namespace was added before the relevant handlers.

* Refactor inode_owner_or_capable() autotools checkRichard Yao2014-05-011-19/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | We need inode_owner_or_capable() for ZFS file attributes in addition to xattrs, so it should go into its own file. This moves it into its own file and changes it to be more comprehensive. It will now fail if no known good API is detected.

* Posix ACL SupportMassimo Maggi2013-10-291-0/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds support for Posix ACLs by storing them as an xattr which is common practice for many Linux file systems. Since the Posix ACL is stored as an xattr it will not overwrite any existing ZFS/NFSv4 ACLs which may have been set. The Posix ACL will also be non-functional on other platforms although it may be visible as an xattr if that platform understands SA based xattrs. By default Posix ACLs are disabled but they may be enabled with the new 'aclmode=noacl|posixacl' property. Set the property to 'posixacl' to enable them. If ZFS/NFSv4 ACL support is ever added an appropriate acltype will be added. This change passes the POSIX Test Suite cleanly with the exception of xacl/00.t test 45 which is incorrect for Linux (Ext4 fails too). http://www.tuxera.com/community/posix-test-suite/ Signed-off-by: Massimo Maggi <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Richard Yao <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #170
* Stop runtime pointer modifications in autotools checksRichard Yao2013-09-131-14/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | c38367c73f592ca9729ba0d5e70b5e3bc67e0745 was meant to eliminate runtime function pointer modifications in autotools checks because they were prone to false negatives on kernels hardened by the PaX project. Unfortunately, I missed the xattr_handler and super_block->s_bdi autotools checks. Recent changes to PaX constified xattr_handler->get/set, which lead me to discover this oversight.

* Fix gcc configure warningsBrian Behlendorf2011-04-191-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Newer versions of gcc are getting smart enough to detect the sloppy syntax used for the autoconf tests. It is now generating warnings for unused/undeclared variables. Newer version of gcc even have the -Wunused-but-set-variable option set by default. This isn't a problem except when -Werror is set and they get promoted to an error. In this case the autoconf test will return an incorrect result which will result in a build failure latter on. To handle this I'm tightening up many of the autoconf tests to explicitly mark variables as unused to suppress the gcc warning. Remember, all of the autoconf code can never actually be run we just want to get a clean build error to detect which APIs are available. Never using a variable is absolutely fine for this. Closes #176
* Linux 2.6.33 compat, get/set xattr callbacksBrian Behlendorf2011-02-111-0/+49
| | | | | | | | | The xattr handler prototypes were sanitized with the idea being that the same handlers could be used for multiple methods. The result of this was the inode type was changes to a dentry, and both the get() and set() hooks had a handler_flags argument added. The list() callback was similiarly effected but no autoconf check was added because we do not use the list() callback.
* Linux 2.6.35 compat, const struct xattr_handlerBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-0/+32
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.
