* Remove ARCH packagingBrian Behlendorf2013-03-042-89/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel modules are now available in the Arch User Repository (AUR) via zfs. Since their packaging is maintained and superior to ours it is being removed from the tree. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ZFS Now that various distributions are picking up the packages we should eventually be able to remove most of this infrastructure. Packaging belongs with the distributions not upstream. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>

* Fix atomic64_* autoconf checksBrian Behlendorf2013-02-051-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SPL_AC_ATOMIC_SPINLOCK, SPL_AC_TYPE_ATOMIC64_CMPXCHG, and SPL_AC_TYPE_ATOMIC64_XCHG were all directly including the 'asm/atomic.h' header. As of Linux 3.4 this header was removed which results in a build failure. The right thing to do is include 'linux/atomic.h' however we can't safely do this because it doesn't exist in 2.6.26 kernels. Therefore, we include 'linux/fs.h' which in turn includes the correct atomic header regardless of the kernel version. When these incorrect APIs are used in ZFS the following build failure results. arc.c:791:80: warning: '__ret' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] arc.c:791:1875: error: call to '__cmpxchg_wrong_size' declared with attribute error: Bad argument size for cmpxchg Since this is all Linux 2.6.24 compatibility code there's an argument to be made that it should be removed because kernels this old are not supported. However, because we're so close to a release I'm going to leave it in place for now. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes zfsonlinux/zfs#814 Closes zfsonlinux/zfs#1254
* Check for KALLSYMSBrian Behlendorf2013-01-291-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | Check at ./configure time that the kernel was built with kallsyms support. If the kernel doesn't have CONFIG_KALLSYMS defined the modules will still compile cleanly but will not be loadable. So we really want to catch this early during ./configure. Note that we do not require CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL but it may be safely defined. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #6
* Remove spl_invalidate_inodes()Brian Behlendorf2013-01-171-74/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | This functionality is no longer required by ZFS, see commit zfsonlinux/zfs@7b3e34ba5a7ee8d0fda44d214f6f11eb16cdb26f. Since there are no other consumers, and because it adds additional autoconf complexity which must be maintained the spl_invalidate_inodes() function has been removed.

* Check for ZLIB_INFLATE and ZLIB_DEFLATEBrian Behlendorf2013-01-091-0/+44

But if it's missing the build will fail so it's best to catch this early. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes zfsonlinux/zfs#582
* Linux compat 3.7.1, on_each_cpu()Brian Behlendorf2013-01-091-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some kernels require that we include the 'linux/irqflags.h' header for the SPL_AC_3ARGS_ON_EACH_CPU check. Otherwise, the functions local_irq_enable()/local_irq_disable() will not be defined and the prototype will be misdetected as the four argument version. This change actually include 'linux/interrupt.h' which in turn includes 'linux/irqflags.h' to be as generic as possible. Additionally, passing NULL as the function can result in a gcc error because the on_each_cpu() macro executes it unconditionally. To make the test more robust we pass the dummy function on_each_cpu_func(). Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #204
* RHEL 6.4 compat, fallocate()Brian Behlendorf2013-01-081-2/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the upstream kernel the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE #define was introduced after the fallocate() function was moved from the inode_operations to the file_operations structure. Therefore, the SPL code assumed that if FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE was defined it was safe to use f_ops->fallocate(). Unfortunately, the RHEL6.4 kernel has only backported the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE #define and not the fallocate() change. To address this compatibility issue the spl_filp_fallocate() helper function was added to properly detect which interface is available. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>
* Removed SPL_AC_3ARGS_INIT_WORK checkBrian Behlendorf2012-12-121-21/+0

* Verify --with-linux source directory existsBrian Behlendorf2012-11-291-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | Previously this check was only performed when ./configure was attempting to autodetect your kernel source directory. But we should also handle the case where --with-linux was provided and is obviously wrong. This way we catch the error before invoking make and compiling the source with an incorrect autoconf results. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #162
* Linux 3.7 compat, __clear_close_on_exec() removedBrian Behlendorf2012-10-181-57/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit torvalds/linux@b8318b0 moved the __clear_close_on_exec() function out of include/linux/fdtable.h and in to fs/file.c making it unavailable to the SPL. Now as it turns out we only used this function to tear down some test infrastructure for the vn_getf()/vn_releasef() SPLAT regression tests. Rather than implement even more autoconf compatibilty code to handle this we just remove the test case. This also allows us to drop three existing autoconf tests. This does mean the SPLAT tests will no longer verify these functions but historically they have never been a problem. And if we feel we absolutely need this test coverage I'm sure a more portable version of the test case could be added. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #183
* Linux 3.6 compat, kern_path_locked() addedYuxuan Shui2012-10-141-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kern_path_parent() function was removed from Linux 3.6 because it was observed that all the callers just want the parent dentry. The simpler kern_path_locked() function replaces kern_path_parent() and does the lookup while holding the ->i_mutex lock. This is good news for the vn implementation because it removes the need for us to handle the locking. However, it makes it harder to implement a single readable vn_remove()/vn_rename() function which is usually what we prefer. Therefore, we implement a new version of vn_remove()/vn_rename() for Linux 3.6 and newer kernels. This allows us to leave the existing working implementation untouched, and to add a simpler version for newer kernels. Long term I would very much like to see all of the vn code removed since what this code enabled is generally frowned upon in the kernel. But that can't happen util we either abondon the zpool.cache file or implement alternate infrastructure to update is correctly in user space.

* Add interface for file hole punching.Etienne Dechamps2012-10-041-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds an interface to "punch holes" (deallocate space) in VFS files. The interface is identical to the Solaris VOP_SPACE interface. This interface is necessary for TRIM support on file vdevs. This is implemented using Linux fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE), which was introduced in 2.6.38. For a brief time before 2.6.38 this was done using the truncate_range inode operation, which was quickly deprecated. This patch only supports FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE. This adds support for the truncate_range() inode operation to VOP_SPACE() for file hole punching. This API is deprecated and removed in 3.5, so it's only useful for old kernels. On tmpfs, the truncate_range() inode operation translates to shmem_truncate_range(). Unfortunately, this function expects the end offset to be inclusive and aligned to the end of a page. If it is not, the kernel will stop with a BUG_ON(). This patch fixes the issue by adapting to the constraints set forth by shmem_truncate_range().

| | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 36811b4430aaea8c8b91bbe7d812a26799865499. Which is no longer required because there is now SPL code in place to safely handle the deadlocks the kernel patch was designed to address. Therefore we can unconditionally use vmalloc() and drop all the PF_MEMALLOC code. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>

* Support building a spl-modules-dkms sub packagePrakash Surya2012-08-081-1/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds support for building a spl-modules-dkms sub package built around Dynamic Kernel Module Support. This is to allow building packages using the DKMS infrastructure which is intended to ease the burden of kernel version changes, upgrades, etc. By default spl-modules-dkms-* sub package will be built as part of the 'make rpm' target. Alternately, you can build only the DKMS module package using the 'make rpm-dkms' target. Examples: # To build packaged binaries as well as a dkms packages $ ./configure && make rpm # To build only the packaged binary utilities and dkms packages $ ./configure && make rpm-utils rpm-dkms Note: Only the RHEL 5/6, CHAOS 5, and Fedora distributions are supported for building the dkms sub package.

* Handle any invalidate_inodes_check prototype.Etienne Dechamps2012-08-061-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the comments of commit 723aa3b0c2eed070f7eeadd2ce2d87f46da6d0f8, mmatuska reported that the test for invalidate_inodes_check() is broken if invalidate_inodes() takes two arguments. This patch fixes the issue by resorting to another approach for detecting invalidate_inodes_check(): is simply checks if invalidate_inodes is defined as a macro. If it is, then it concludes that invalidate_inodes_check() is available. This will continue to work even if the prototype of invalidate_inodes_check() changes over time.

* When checking for symbol exports, try compiling.Etienne Dechamps2012-07-261-179/+329
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new autoconf function: SPL_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL. This new function does the following: - Call LINUX_TRY_COMPILE with the specified parameters. - If unsuccessful, return false. - If successful and we're configuring with --enable-linux-builtin, return true. - Else, call CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT with the specified parameters and return the result. All calls to CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT are converted to LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL so that the tests work even when configuring for builtin on a kernel which doesn't have loadable module support, or hasn't been built yet. The only exception are: - AC_GET_VMALLOC_INFO, because we don't even have a public header to include in the test case, but that's okay considering this symbol can be ignored just fine. - SPL_AC_DEVICE_CREATE, which is legacy API for 2.6.18 kernels. Since kernels this old are no longer supported it should arguably just be removed entirely from the build system. Note that we're also checking for the correct prototype with an actual call, which was not the case with CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT. However, for "complicated" test cases like with multiple symbol versions (e.g. vfs_fsync), we stick with the original behavior and only check for the function's existence.

* Fake modpost stage for LINUX_COMPILE.Etienne Dechamps2012-07-261-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when building a test case, we're compiling an entire Linux module from beginning to end. This includes the MODPOST stage, which generates a "conftest.mod.c" file with some boilerplate module declaration code. This poses a problem when configuring for built-in on kernels which have loadable module support disabled. In this case conftest.mod.c is referencing disabled code, resulting in a compilation failure, thus breaking the tests. This patch fixes the issue by faking the modpost stage when the --enable-linux-builtin option is provided. It does so by forcing the modpost command to be /bin/true, and using an empty conftest.mod.c file. The test module still compiles fine, although the result isn't loadable, but we don't really care at this point. Note it is important to preserve the modpost stage when building out of tree. This allows for the posibility of configure checks to leverage this phase to identify GPL-only symbols.

* Make configure builtin-aware.Etienne Dechamps2012-07-261-28/+58

When this option is used, the following happens: - Compilation of kernel modules is disabled. - A failure to find UTS_RELEASE is followed by a suggestion to run "make prepare" on the kernel source tree. This patch also adds a new test which tries to compile an empty module as a basic toolchain sanity test. If it fails and the option was specified, the error is followed by a suggestion to run "make scripts" on the kernel source tree.

* Detect kernels that honor gfp flags passed to vmalloc()Richard Yao2012-07-111-0/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | zfsonlinux/spl@2092cf68d89a51eb0d6193aeadabb579dfc4b4a0 used PF_MEMALLOC to workaround a bug in the Linux kernel where allocations did not honor the gfp flags passed to vmalloc(). Unfortunately, PF_MEMALLOC has the side effect of permitting allocations to allocate pages outside of ZONE_NORMAL. This has been observed to result in the depletion of ZONE_DMA32. A kernel patch is available in the Gentoo bug tracker for this issue. https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416685 This negates any benefit PF_MEMALLOC provides, so we introduce an autotools check to disable the use of PF_MEMALLOC on systems with patched kernels.

* Linux 3.4 compat, __clear_close_on_exec replaces FD_CLRRichard Yao2012-06-131-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | torvalds/linux@1dce27c5aa6770e9d195f2bb7db1db3d4dde5591 introduced __clear_close_on_exec() as a replacement for FD_CLR. Further commits appear to have removed FD_CLR from the Linux source tree. This causes the following failure: error: implicit declaration of function '__FD_CLR' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] To correct this we update the code to use the current __clear_close_on_exec() interface for readability. Then we introduce an autotools check to determine if __clear_close_on_exec() is available. If it isn't then we define some compatibility logic which used the older FD_CLR() interface.

* Fix distribution detectionBrian Behlendorf2012-03-051-16/+23

* Add --enable-debug-log configure optionBrian Behlendorf2012-02-021-0/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now the notion of an internal debug logging infrastructure was conflated with enabling ASSERT()s. This patch clarifies things by cleanly breaking the two subsystem apart. The result of this is the following behavior. --enable-debug - Enable/disable code wrapped in ASSERT()s. --disable-debug ASSERT()s are used to check invariants and are never required for correct operation. They are disabled by default because they may impact performance. --enable-debug-log - Enable/disable the debug log infrastructure. --disable-debug-log This infrastructure allows the spl code and its consumer to log messages to an in-kernel log. The granularity of the logging can be controlled by a debug mask. By default the mask disables most debug messages resulting in a negligible performance impact. Because of this the debug log is enabled by default. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>

| | | | | | | | | | | | Prior to Linux 2.6.39 when CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES was defined the kernel stored a thread_info pointer as the mutex owner.

This commit detects the type of pointer stored in the mutex and adjusts the mutex_owner() and mutex_owned() functions to perform the correct comparision.

Use argv[0] instead of sh_path for consistency internally and with other Linux drivers. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>
* Linux 2.6.39 compat, zlib_deflate_workspacesize()Brian Behlendorf2011-04-201-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The function zlib_deflate_workspacesize() now take 2 arguments. This was done to avoid always having to allocate the maximum size workspace (268K). The caller can now specific the windowBits and memLevel compression parameters to get a smaller workspace. For our purposes we introduce a spl_zlib_deflate_workspacesize() wrapper which accepts both arguments. When the two argument version of zlib_deflate_workspacesize() is available the arguments are passed through. When it's not we assume the worst case and a maximally sized workspace is used.
* Linux 2.6.39 compat, kern_path_parent()Brian Behlendorf2011-04-201-0/+17
| | | | | | | The path_lookup() function has been renamed to kern_path_parent() and the flags argument has been removed. The only behavior now offered is that of LOOKUP_PARENT. The spl already always passed this flag so dropping the flag does not impact us.
* Fix gcc configure warningsBrian Behlendorf2011-04-191-20/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Linux 2.6.39 compat, invalidate_inodes()Brian Behlendorf2011-04-191-0/+31
| | | | | | | | To resolve a potiential filesystem corruption issue a second argument was added to invalidate_inodes(). This argument controls whether dirty inodes are dropped or treated as busy when invalidating a super block. When only the legacy API is available the second argument will be dropped for compatibility.
* Add dnlc_reduce_cache() supportBrian Behlendorf2011-04-061-0/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide the dnlc_reduce_cache() function which attempts to prune cached entries from the dcache and icache. After the entries are pruned any slabs which they may have been using are reaped. Note the API takes a reclaim percentage but we don't have easy access to the total number of cache entries to calculate the reclaim count. However, in practice this doesn't need to be exactly correct. We simply need to reclaim some useful fraction (but not all) of the cache. The caller can determine if more needs to be done.
* Make Missing Modules.symvers FatalBrian Behlendorf2011-03-071-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | Detect early on in configure if the Modules.symvers file is missing. Without this file there will be build failures later and it's best to catch this early and provide a useful error. In this case the most likely problem is the kernel-devel packages are not installed. It may also be possible that they are using an unbuilt custom kernel in which case they must build the kernel first.
* Make CONFIG_PREEMPT FatalBrian Behlendorf2011-03-071-0/+8
| | | | | | Until support is added for preemptible kernels detect this at configure time and make it fatal. Otherwise, it is possible to have a successful build and kernel modules with flakey behavior.
* Linux compat 2.6.37, invalidate_inodes()Brian Behlendorf2011-02-231-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the 2.6.37 kernel the function invalidate_inodes() is no longer exported for use by modules. This memory management functionality is needed to invalidate the inodes attached to a super block without unmounting the filesystem. Because this function still exists in the kernel and the prototype is available is a common header all we strictly need is the symbol address. The address is obtained using spl_kallsyms_lookup_name() and assigned to the variable invalidate_inodes_fn. Then a #define is used to replace all instances of invalidate_inodes() with a call to the acquired address. All the complexity is hidden behind HAVE_INVALIDATE_INODES and invalidate_inodes() can be used as usual. Long term we should try to get this, or another, interface made available to modules again.
* Prefer /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ linksBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-3/+8
| | | | | | | | Preferentially use the /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/source and /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build links. Only if neither of these links exist fallback to alternate methods for deducing which kernel to build with. This resolves the need to manually specify --with-linux= and --with-linux-obj= on Debian systems.
