* Use udev to create /dev/zvol/[dataset_name] linksFajar A. Nugraha2011-02-251-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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). Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>
* Linux 2.6.38 compat, blkdev_get_by_path()Brian Behlendorf2011-02-234-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | The open_bdev_exclusive() function has been replaced (again) by the more generic blkdev_get_by_path() function. Additionally, the counterpart function close_bdev_exclusive() has been replaced by blkdev_put(). Because these functions are more generic versions of the functions they replaced the compatibility macro must add the FMODE_EXCL mask to ensure they are exclusive. Closes #114
* Linux 2.6.x compat, blkdev_compat.hBrian Behlendorf2011-02-236-321/+2
| | | | | | | | | | For legacy reasons the zvol.c and vdev_disk.c Linux compatibility code ended up in sys/blkdev.h and sys/vdev_disk.h headers. While there are worse places for this code to live it should be in a linux/blkdev_compat.h header. This change moves this block device Linux compatibility code in to the linux/blkdev_compat.h header and updates all the correct #include locations. This is not a functional change or bug fix, it is just code cleanup.

| * Linux 2.6.36 compat, sops->evict_inode()Brian Behlendorf2011-02-114-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | The new prefered inteface for evicting an inode from the inode cache is the ->evict_inode() callback. It replaces both the ->delete_inode() and ->clear_inode() callbacks which were previously used for this.
| * Linux 2.6.35 compat, fops->fsync()Brian Behlendorf2011-02-115-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fsync() callback in the file_operations structure used to take 3 arguments. The callback now only takes 2 arguments because the dentry argument was determined to be unused by all consumers. To handle this a compatibility prototype was added to ensure the right prototype is used. Our implementation never used the dentry argument either so it's just a matter of using the right prototype.
| * Linux 2.6.35 compat, const struct xattr_handlerBrian Behlendorf2011-02-105-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
| * Use 'noop' IO SchedulerBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Initial testing has shown the the right IO scheduler to use under Linux is noop. This strikes the ideal balance by allowing the zfs elevator to do all request ordering and prioritization. While allowing the Linux elevator to do the maximum front/back merging allowed by the physical device. This yields the largest possible requests for the device with the lowest total overhead. While 'noop' should be right for your system you can choose a different IO scheduler with the 'zfs_vdev_scheduler' option. You may set this value to any of the standard Linux schedulers: noop, cfq, deadline, anticipatory. In addition, if you choose 'none' zfs will not attempt to change the IO scheduler for the block device.
| * Add mmap(2) supportBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's worth taking a moment to describe how mmap is implemented for zfs because it differs considerably from other Linux filesystems. However, this issue is handled the same way under OpenSolaris. The issue is that by design zfs bypasses the Linux page cache and leaves all caching up to the ARC. This has been shown to work well for the common read(2)/write(2) case. However, mmap(2) is problem because it relies on being tightly integrated with the page cache. To handle this we cache mmap'ed files twice, once in the ARC and a second time in the page cache. The code is careful to keep both copies synchronized. When a file with an mmap'ed region is written to using write(2) both the data in the ARC and existing pages in the page cache are updated. For a read(2) data will be read first from the page cache then the ARC if needed. Neither a write(2) or read(2) will will ever result in new pages being added to the page cache. New pages are added to the page cache only via .readpage() which is called when the vfs needs to read a page off disk to back the virtual memory region. These pages may be modified without notifying the ARC and will be written out periodically via .writepage(). This will occur due to either a sync or the usual page aging behavior. Note because a read(2) of a mmap'ed file will always check the page cache first even when the ARC is out of date correct data will still be returned. While this implementation ensures correct behavior it does have have some drawbacks. The most obvious of which is that it increases the required memory footprint when access mmap'ed files. It also adds additional complexity to the code keeping both caches synchronized. Longer term it may be possible to cleanly resolve this wart by mapping page cache pages directly on to the ARC buffers. The Linux address space operations are flexible enough to allow selection of which pages back a particular index. The trick would be working out the details of which subsystem is in charge, the ARC, the page cache, or both. It may also prove helpful to move the ARC buffers to a scatter-gather lists rather than a vmalloc'ed region. Additionally, zfs_write/read_common() were used in the readpage and writepage hooks because it was fairly easy. However, it would be better to update zfs_fillpage and zfs_putapage to be Linux friendly and use them instead.
| * Add Hooks for Linux File OperationsBrian Behlendorf2011-02-103-0/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Linux specific file operations have all been located in the file zpl_file.c. These functions primarily rely on the reworked zfs_* functions to do their job. They are also responsible for converting the possible Solaris style error codes to negative Linux errors. This first zpl_* commit also includes a common zpl.h header with minimal entries to register the Linux specific hooks. In also adds all the new zpl_* file to the Makefile.in. This is not a standalone commit, you required the following zpl_* commits.
| * Add zp->z_is_zvol flagBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A new flag is required for the zfs_rlock code to determine if it is operation of the zvol of zpl dataset. This used to be keyed off the zp->z_vnode, which was a hack to begin with, but with the removal of vnodes we needed a dedicated flag.
| * Prototype/structure update for LinuxBrian Behlendorf2011-02-107-114/+120
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I appologize in advance why to many things ended up in this commit. When it could be seperated in to a whole series of commits teasing that all apart now would take considerable time and I'm not sure there's much merrit in it. As such I'll just summerize the intent of the changes which are all (or partly) in this commit. Broadly the intent is to remove as much Solaris specific code as possible and replace it with native Linux equivilants. More specifically: 1) Replace all instances of zfsvfs_t with zfs_sb_t. While the type is largely the same calling it private super block data rather than a zfsvfs is more consistent with how Linux names this. While non critical it makes the code easier to read when your thinking in Linux friendly VFS terms. 2) Replace vnode_t with struct inode. The Linux VFS doesn't have the notion of a vnode and there's absolutely no good reason to create one. There are in fact several good reasons to remove it. It just adds overhead on Linux if we were to manage one, it conplicates the code, and it likely will lead to bugs so there's a good change it will be out of date. The code has been updated to remove all need for this type. 3) Replace all vtype_t's with umode types. Along with this shift all uses of types to mode bits. The Solaris code would pass a vtype which is redundant with the Linux mode. Just update all the code to use the Linux mode macros and remove this redundancy. 4) Remove using of vn_* helpers and replace where needed with inode helpers. The big example here is creating iput_aync to replace vn_rele_async. Other vn helpers will be addressed as needed but they should be be emulated. They are a Solaris VFS'ism and should simply be replaced with Linux equivilants. 5) Update znode alloc/free code. Under Linux it's common to embed the inode specific data with the inode itself. This removes the need for an extra memory allocation. In zfs this information is called a znode and it now embeds the inode with it. Allocators have been updated accordingly. 6) Minimal integration with the vfs flags for setting up the super block and handling mount options has been added this code will need to be refined but functionally it's all there. This will be the first and last of these to large to review commits.
| * Remove dmu_write_pages() supportBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the moment we do not use dmu_write_pages() to write pages directly in to a dmu object. It may be required at some point in the future, but for now is simplest and cleanest to drop it. It can be easily readded if/when needed.
| * Remove zfs_ctldir.[ch]Brian Behlendorf2011-02-104-79/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This code is used for snapshot and heavily leverages Solaris functionality we do not want to reimplement. These files have been removed, including references to them, and will be replaced by a zfs_snap.c/zpl_snap.c implementation which handles snapshots.
| * VFS: Add zfs_inode_update() helperBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the moment we have left ZFS unchanged and it updates many values as part of the znode. However, some of these values should be set in the inode. For the moment this is handled by adding a function called zfs_inode_update() which updates the inode based on the znode. This is considered a workaround until we can systematically go through the ZFS code and have it directly update the inode. At which point zfs_update_inode() can be dropped entirely. Keeping two copies of the same data isn't only inefficient it's a breeding ground for bugs.
| * VFS: Integrate zfs_znode_alloc()Brian Behlendorf2011-02-101-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Under Linux the convention for filesystem specific data structure is to embed it along with the generic vfs data structure. This differs significantly from Solaris. Since we want to integrates as cleanly with the Linux VFS as possible. This changes modifies zfs_znode_alloc() to allocate a znode with an embedded inode for use with the generic VFS. This is done by calling iget_locked() which will allocate a new inode if needed by calling sb->alloc_inode(). This function allocates enough memory for a znode_t by returns a pointer to the inode structure for Linux's VFS. This function is also responsible for setting the callback znode->z_set_ops_inodes() which is used to register the correct handlers for the inode.
| * ACL related changesBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | A small collection of ACL related changes related to not supporting fuid mapping. This whole are will need to be closely investigated.
| * Add Linux Compat InfrastructureBrian Behlendorf2011-02-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Lay the initial ground work for a include/linux/ compatibility directory. This was less critical in the past because the bulk of the ZFS code consumes the Solaris API via the SPL. This API was stable and the bulk Linux API differences were handled in the SPL. However, with the addition of a full Posix layer written directly against the Linux APIs we are going to need more compatibility code. It makes sense that all this code should be cleanly located in one place. Subsequent patches should move the existing zvol and vdev_disk compatibility code in to this directory.
| * Add basic uio supportBrian Behlendorf2011-02-104-2/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This code originates in OpenSolaris and was modified by KQ Infotech to be compatible with Linux. While supporting uios in the short term is useful to get something working this is not an abstraction we want to keep. This code is expected to be short lived and removed as soon as all the remaining uio based APIs and updated.
| * Export required vfs/vn symbolsBrian Behlendorf2011-02-104-0/+92
| |
| * Add initial rw_uio functions to the dmuBrian Behlendorf2011-02-041-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | These functions were dropped originally because I felt they would need to be rewritten anyway to avoid using uios. However, this patch readds then with they dea they can just be reworked and the uio bits dropped.
| * Minimal libshare infrastructureBrian Behlendorf2011-02-044-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ZFS even under Solaris does not strictly require libshare to be available. The current implementation attempts to dlopen() the library to access the needed symbols. If this fails libshare support is simply disabled. This means that on Linux we only need the most minimal libshare implementation. In fact just enough to prevent the build from failing. Longer term we can decide if we want to implement a libshare library like Solaris. At best this would be an abstraction layer between ZFS and NFS/SMB. Alternately, we can drop libshare entirely and directly integrate ZFS with Linux's NFS/SMB. Finally the bare bones user-libshare.m4 test was dropped. If we do decide to implement libshare at some point it will surely be as part of this package so the check is not needed.
| * Autoconf selinux supportBrian Behlendorf2011-01-284-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If libselinux is detected on your system at configure time link against it. This allows us to use a library call to detect if selinux is enabled and if it is to pass the mount option: "context=\"system_u:object_r:file_t:s0" For now this is required because none of the existing selinux policies are aware of the zfs filesystem type. Because of this they do not properly enable xattr based labeling even though zfs supports all of the required hooks. Until distro's add zfs as a known xattr friendly fs type we must use mntpoint labeling. Alternately, end users could modify their existing selinux policy with a little guidance.
| * Use cv_timedwait_interruptible in arcBrian Behlendorf2010-12-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The issue is that cv_timedwait() sleeps uninterruptibly to block signals and avoid waking up early. Under Linux this counts against the load average keeping it artificially high. This change allows the arc to sleep interruptibly which mean it may be woken up early due to a signal. Normally this means some extra care must be taken to handle a potential signal. But for the arcs usage of cv_timedwait() there is no harm in waking up before the timeout expires so no extra handling is required.
* | Add API to wait for pending commit callbacksRicardo M. Correia2011-02-161-0/+6
|/ | | | | | | | This adds an API to wait for pending commit callbacks of already-synced transactions to finish processing. This is needed by the DMU-OSD in Lustre during device finalization when some callbacks may still not be called, this leads to non-zero reference count errors. See lustre.org bug 23931.
* Linux 2.6.36 compat, blk_* macros removedBrian Behlendorf2010-11-101-0/+10
| | | | | | | Most of the blk_* macros were removed in 2.6.36. Ostensibly this was done to improve readability and allow easier grepping. However, from a portability stand point the macros are helpful. Therefore the needed macros are redefined here if they are missing from the kernel.
* Linux 2.6.36 compat, synchronous bio flagBrian Behlendorf2010-11-101-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The name of the flag used to mark a bio as synchronous has changed again in the 2.6.36 kernel due to the unification of the BIO_RW_* and REQ_* flags. The new flag is called REQ_SYNC. To simplify checking this flag I have introduced the vdev_disk_dio_is_sync() helper function. Based on the results of several new autoconf tests it uses the correct mask to check for a synchronous bio. Preferred interface for flagging a synchronous bio: 2.6.12-2.6.29: BIO_RW_SYNC 2.6.30-2.6.35: BIO_RW_SYNCIO 2.6.36-2.6.xx: REQ_SYNC
* Linux 2.6.36 compat, use REQ_FAILFAST_MASKBrian Behlendorf2010-11-101-6/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As of linux-2.6.36 the BIO_RW_FAILFAST and REQ_FAILFAST flags have been unified under the REQ_* names. These flags always had to be kept in-sync so this is a nice step forward, unfortunately it means we need to be careful to only use the new unified flags when the BIO_RW_* flags are not defined. Additional autoconf checks were added for this and if it is ever unclear which method to use no flags are set. This is safe but may result in longer delays before a disk is failed. Perferred interface for setting FAILFAST on a bio: 2.6.12-2.6.27: BIO_RW_FAILFAST 2.6.28-2.6.35: BIO_RW_FAILFAST_{DEV|TRANSPORT|DRIVER} 2.6.36-2.6.xx: REQ_FAILFAST_{DEV|TRANSPORT|DRIVER}
* Fix missing 'zpool events'Brian Behlendorf2010-10-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that 'zpool events' over 1024 bytes in size where being silently dropped. This was discovered while writing the zfault.sh tests to validate common failure modes. This could occur because the zfs interface for passing an arbitrary size nvlist_t over an ioctl() is to provide a buffer for the packed nvlist which is usually big enough. In this case 1024 byte is the default. If the kernel determines the buffer is to small it returns ENOMEM and the minimum required size of the nvlist_t. This was working properly but in the case of 'zpool events' the event stream was advanced dispite the error. Thus the retry with the bigger buffer would succeed but it would skip over the previous event. The fix is to pass this size to zfs_zevent_next() and determine before removing the event from the list if it will fit. This was preferable to checking after the event was returned because this avoids the need to rewind the stream.
* Initial zio delay timingBrian Behlendorf2010-10-122-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While there is no right maximum timeout for a disk IO we can start laying the ground work to measure how long they do take in practice. This change simply measures the IO time and if it exceeds 30s an event is posted for 'zpool events'. This value was carefully selected because for sd devices it implies that at least one timeout (SD_TIMEOUT) has occured. Unfortunately, even with FAILFAST set we may retry and request and not get an error. This behavior is strongly dependant on the device driver and how it is hooked in to the scsi error handling stack. However by setting the limit at 30s we can log the event even if no error was returned. Slightly longer term we can start recording these delays perhaps as a simple power-of-two histrogram. This histogram can then be reported as part of the 'zpool status' command when given an command line option. None of this code changes the internal behavior of ZFS. Currently it is simply for reporting excessively long delays.
* Add FAILFAST supportBrian Behlendorf2010-10-125-0/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ZFS works best when it is notified as soon as possible when a device failure occurs. This allows it to immediately start any recovery actions which may be needed. In theory Linux supports a flag which can be set on bio's called FAILFAST which provides this quick notification by disabling the retry logic in the lower scsi layers. That's the theory at least. In practice is turns out that while the flag exists you oddly have to set it with the BIO_RW_AHEAD flag. And even when it's set it you may get retries in the low level drivers decides that's the right behavior, or if you don't get the right error codes reported to the scsi midlayer. Unfortunately, without additional kernels patchs there's not much which can be done to improve this. Basically, this just means that it may take 2-3 minutes before a ZFS is notified properly that a device has failed. This can be improved and I suspect I'll be submitting patches upstream to handle this.
* Generate zevents for speculative and soft errorsBrian Behlendorf2010-10-121-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | By default the Solaris code does not log speculative or soft io errors in either 'zpool status' or post an event. Under Linux we don't want to change the expected behavior of 'zpool status' so these io errors are still suppressed there. However, since we do need to know about these events for Linux FMA and the 'zpool events' interface is new we do post the events. With the addition of the zio_flags field the posted events now contain enough information that a user space consumer can identify and discard these events if it sees fit.
* Use linux __KERNEL__ defineBrian Behlendorf2010-09-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the project contained who zfs_context.h files, one for user space builds and one for kernel space builds. It was the responsibility of the source including the file to ensure the right one was included based on the order of the include paths. This was the way it was done in OpenSolaris but for our purposes I felt it was overly obscure. The user and kernel zfs_context.h files have been combined in to a single file and a #define determines if you get the user or kernel context. The issue here was that I used the _KERNEL macro which is defined as part of the spl which will only be defined for most builds after you include the right zfs_context. It is safer to use the __KERNEL__ macro which is automatically defined as part of the kernel build process and passed as a command line compiler option. It will always be defined if your building in the kernel and never for user space.
* Support custom build directories and move includesBrian Behlendorf2010-09-0884-0/+53066
One of the neat tricks an autoconf style project is capable of is allow configurion/building in a directory other than the source directory. The major advantage to this is that you can build the project various different ways while making changes in a single source tree. For example, this project is designed to work on various different Linux distributions each of which work slightly differently. This means that changes need to verified on each of those supported distributions perferably before the change is committed to the public git repo. Using nfs and custom build directories makes this much easier. I now have a single source tree in nfs mounted on several different systems each running a supported distribution. When I make a change to the source base I suspect may break things I can concurrently build from the same source on all the systems each in their own subdirectory. wget -c http://github.com/downloads/behlendorf/zfs/zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz tar -xzf zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz cd zfs-x-y-z ------------------------- run concurrently ---------------------- <ubuntu system> <fedora system> <debian system> <rhel6 system> mkdir ubuntu mkdir fedora mkdir debian mkdir rhel6 cd ubuntu cd fedora cd debian cd rhel6 ../configure ../configure ../configure ../configure make make make make make check make check make check make check This change also moves many of the include headers from individual incude/sys directories under the modules directory in to a single top level include directory. This has the advantage of making the build rules cleaner and logically it makes a bit more sense.
