Differences between how paging is done on Solaris and Linux can cause
deadlocks if KM_SLEEP is used in any the following contexts.
* The txg_sync thread
* The zvol write/discard threads
* The zpl_putpage() VFS callback
This is because KM_SLEEP will allow for direct reclaim which may result
in the VM calling back in to the filesystem or block layer to write out
pages. If a lock is held over this operation the potential exists to
deadlock the system. To ensure forward progress all memory allocations
in these contexts must us KM_PUSHPAGE which disables performing any I/O
to accomplish the memory allocation.
Previously, this behavior was acheived by setting PF_MEMALLOC on the
thread. However, that resulted in unexpected side effects such as the
exhaustion of pages in ZONE_DMA. This approach touchs more of the zfs
code, but it is more consistent with the right way to handle these cases
under Linux.
This is patch lays the ground work for being able to safely revert the
following commits which used PF_MEMALLOC:
21ade34 Disable direct reclaim for z_wr_* threads
cfc9a5c Fix zpl_writepage() deadlock
eec8164 Fix ASSERTION(!dsl_pool_sync_context(tx->tx_pool))

These allocations in mzap_update() used to be kmem_alloc() but
were changed to vmem_alloc() due to the size of the allocation.
However, since it turns out this function may be called in the
context of the txg_sync thread they must be changed back to use
a kmem_alloc() to ensure the KM_PUSHPAGE flag is honored.

The txg_sync(), zfs_putpage(), zvol_write(), and zvol_discard()
call paths must only use KM_PUSHPAGE to avoid potential deadlocks
during direct reclaim.
This patch annotates these call paths so any accidental use of
KM_SLEEP will be quickly detected. In the interest of stability
if debugging is disabled the offending allocation will have its
GFP flags automatically corrected. When debugging is enabled
any misuse will be treated as a fatal error.
This patch is entirely for debugging. We should be careful to
NOT become dependant on it fixing up the incorrect allocations.

The vdev queue layer may require a small number of buffers
when attempting to create aggregate I/O requests. Rather than
attempting to allocate them from the global zio buffers, which
is slow under memory pressure, it makes sense to pre-allocate
them because...
1) These buffers are short lived. They are only required for
the life of a single I/O at which point they can be used by
the next I/O.
2) The maximum number of concurrent buffers needed by a vdev is
small. It's roughly limited by the zfs_vdev_max_pending tunable
which defaults to 10.
By keeping a small list of these buffer per-vdev we can ensure
one is always available when we need it. This significantly
reduces contention on the vq->vq_lock, because we no longer
need to perform a slow allocation under this lock. This is
particularly important when memory is already low on the system.
It would probably be wise to extend the use of these buffers beyond
aggregate I/O and in to the raidz implementation. The inability
to quickly allocate buffer for the parity stripes could result in
similiar problems.

This commit used PF_MEMALLOC to prevent a memory reclaim deadlock.
However, commit 49be0ccf1fdc2ce852271d4d2f8b7a9c2c4be6db eliminated
the invocation of __cv_init(), which was the cause of the deadlock.
PF_MEMALLOC has the side effect of permitting pages from ZONE_DMA
to be allocated. The use of PF_MEMALLOC was found to cause stability
problems when doing swap on zvols. Since this technique is known to
cause problems and no longer fixes anything, we revert it.

The commit, cfc9a5c88f91f7b4d606fce89505e1f404691ea5, to fix deadlocks
in zpl_writepage() relied on PF_MEMALLOC. That had the effect of
disabling the direct reclaim path on all allocations originating from
calls to this function, but it failed to address the actual cause of
those deadlocks. This led to the same deadlocks being observed with
swap on zvols, but not with swap on the loop device, which exercises
this code.
The use of PF_MEMALLOC also had the side effect of permitting
allocations to be made from ZONE_DMA in instances that did not require
it. This contributes to the possibility of panics caused by depletion
of pages from ZONE_DMA.
As such, we revert this patch in favor of a proper fix for both issues.

Under Solaris the behavior for rmdir(2) is to return EEXIST when
a directory still contains entries. However, on Linux ENOTEMPTY
is the expected return value with EEXIST being technically allowed.
According to rmdir(2):
ENOTEMPTY
pathname contains entries other than . and .. ; or, pathname has
.. as its final component. POSIX.1-2001 also allows EEXIST for
this condition.

When calling sa_update() and friends it is possible that a spill
buffer will be needed to accomidate the update. When this happens
a hold is taken on the new dbuf and that hold must be released
before calling dmu_tx_commit(). Failing to release the hold will
cause a copy of the dbuf to be made in dbuf_sync_leaf(). This is
done to ensure further updates to the dbuf never sneak in to the
syncing txg.
This could be left to the sa_update() caller. But then the caller
would need to be aware of this internal SA implementation detail.
It is therefore preferable to handle this all internally in the
SA implementation.

Currently, zvols have a discard granularity set to 0, which suggests to
the upper layer that discard requests of arbirarily small size and
alignment can be made efficiently.
In practice however, ZFS does not handle unaligned discard requests
efficiently: indeed, it is unable to free a part of a block. It will
write zeros to the specified range instead, which is both useless and
inefficient (see dnode_free_range).
With this patch, zvol block devices expose volblocksize as their discard
granularity, so the upper layer is aware that it's not supposed to send
discard requests smaller than volblocksize.

The number of blocks that can be discarded in one BLKDISCARD ioctl on a
zvol is currently unlimited. Some applications, such as mkfs, discard
the whole volume at once and they use the maximum possible discard size
to do that. As a result, several gigabytes discard requests are not
uncommon.
Unfortunately, if a large amount of data is allocated in the zvol, ZFS
can be quite slow to process discard requests. This is especially true
if the volblocksize is low (e.g. the 8K default). As a result, very
large discard requests can take a very long time (seconds to minutes
under heavy load) to complete. This can cause a number of problems, most
notably if the zvol is accessed remotely (e.g. via iSCSI), in which case
the client has a high probability of timing out on the request.
This patch solves the issue by adding a new tunable module parameter:
zvol_max_discard_blocks. This indicates the maximum possible range, in
zvol blocks, of one discard operation. It is set by default to 16384
blocks, which appears to be a good tradeoff. Using the default
volblocksize of 8K this is equivalent to 128 MB. When using the maximum
volblocksize of 128K this is equivalent to 2 GB.

This commit introduces a "copy-builtin" script designed to prepare a
kernel source tree for building ZFS as a builtin module. The script
makes a full copy of all needed files, thus making the kernel source
tree fully independent of the zfs source package.
To achieve that, some compilation flags (-include, -I) have been moved
to module/Makefile. This Makefile is only used when compiling external
modules; when compiling builtin modules, a Kbuild file generated by the
configure-builtin script is used instead. This makes sure Makefiles
inside the kernel source tree does not contain references to the zfs
source package.

inode_sync_wait() earlier in to evict(). This effecitvely changes
the ordering of the sync but it does not impact the details of

However, as part of this change end_writeback() was renamed to
clear_inode() to reflect the new semantics. This change does
impact us and clear_inode() now maps to end_writeback() for
kernels prior to 3.5.

The .zfs control directory implementation currently relies on
the fact that there is a direct 1:1 mapping from an object id
to its inode number. This works well as long as the system
uses a 64-bit value to store the inode number.
Unfortunately, the Linux kernel defines the inode number as
an 'unsigned long' type. This means that for 32-bit systems
will only have 32-bit inode numbers but we still have 64-bit
object ids.
This problem is particularly acute for the .zfs directories
which leverage those upper 32-bits. This is done to avoid
conflicting with object ids which are allocated monotonically
starting from 0. This is likely to also be a problem for
datasets on 32-bit systems with more than ~2 billion files.
The right long term fix must remove the simple 1:1 mapping.
Until that's done the only safe thing to do is to disable the
.zfs directory on 32-bit systems.

Gentoo Hardened kernels include the PaX/GRSecurity patches. They use a
dialect of C that relies on a GCC plugin. In particular, struct
file_operations has been marked do_const in the PaX/GRSecurity dialect,
which causes GCC to consider all instances of it as const. This caused
failures in the autotools checks and the ZFS source code.
To address this, we modify the autotools checks to take into account
differences between the PaX C dialect and the regular C dialect. We also
modify struct zfs_acl's z_ops member to be a pointer to a function
pointer table. Lastly, we modify zpl_put_link() to address a PaX change
to the function prototype of nd_get_link(). This avoids compiler errors
in the PaX/GRSecurity dialect.
Note that the change in zpl_put_link() causes a warning that becomes a
build failure when debugging is enabled. Fixing that warning requires
ryao/spl@5ca50ef459c59bc74b7a7cd3af7311da2b1cd2c3.

Currently, zpool online -e (dynamic vdev expansion) doesn't work on
whole disks because we're invoking ioctl(BLKRRPART) from userspace
while ZFS still has a partition open on the disk, which results in
EBUSY.
This patch moves the BLKRRPART invocation from the zpool utility to the
module. Specifically, this is done just before opening the device in
vdev_disk_open() which is called inside vdev_reopen(). This requires
jumping through some hoops to get to the disk device from the partition
device, and to make sure we can still open the partition after the
BLKRRPART call.
Note that this new code path is triggered on dynamic vdev expansion
only; other actions, like creating a new pool, are unchanged and still
call BLKRRPART from userspace.
This change also depends on API changes which are available in 2.6.37
and latter kernels. The build system has been updated to detect this,
but there is no compatibility mode for older kernels. This means that
online expansion will NOT be available in older kernels. However, it
will still be possible to expand the vdev offline.

The performance of the ZIL is usually the main bottleneck when dealing with
synchronous, write-heavy workloads (e.g. databases). Understanding the
behavior of the ZIL is required to diagnose performance issues for these
workloads, and to tune ZIL parameters (like zil_slog_limit) accordingly.
This commit adds a new kstat page dedicated to the ZIL with some counters
which, hopefully, scheds some light into what the ZIL is doing, and how it is
doing it.
Currently, these statistics are available in /proc/spl/kstat/zfs/zil.
A description of the fields can be found in zil.h.

ZoL can create more zvols at runtime than can be configured during
system start, which hangs the init stack at reboot.
When a slow system has more than a few hundred zvols, udev will
fork bomb during system start and spend too much time in device
detection routines, so upstart kills it.
The zfs_inhibit_dev option allows an affected system to be rescued
by skipping /dev/zd* creation and thereby avoiding the udev
overload. All zvols are made inaccessible if this option is set, but
the `zfs destroy` and `zfs send` commands still work, and ZFS
filesystems can be mounted.

zil_slog_limit specifies the maximum commit size to be written to the separate
log device. Larger commits bypass the separate log device and go directly to
the data devices.
The optimal value for zil_slog_limit directly depends on the latency and
throughput characteristics of both the separate log device and the data disks.
Small synchronous writes are faster on low-latency separate log devices (e.g.
SSDs) whereas large synchronous writes are faster on high-latency data disks
(e.g. spindles) because of higher throughput, especially with a large array.
The point is, the line between "small" and "large" synchronous writes in this
scenario is heavily dependent on the hardware used. That's why it should be
made configurable.

torvalds/linux@adc0e91ab142abe93f5b0d7980ada8a7676231fe introduced
introduced d_make_root() as a replacement for d_alloc_root(). Further
commits appear to have removed d_alloc_root() from the Linux source
tree. This causes the following failure:
error: implicit declaration of function 'd_alloc_root'
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
To correct this we update the code to use the current d_make_root()
interface for readability. Then we introduce an autotools check
to determine if d_make_root() is available. If it isn't then we
define some compatibility logic which used the older d_alloc_root()
interface.

The mode argument of iops->create()/mkdir()/mknod() was changed from
an 'int' to a 'umode_t'. To prevent a compiler warning an autoconf
check was added to detect the API change and then correctly set a
zpl_umode_t typedef. There is no functional change.

Previously, it was possible for the direct reclaim path to be invoked
when a write to a zvol was made. When a zvol is used as a swap device,
this often causes swap requests to depend on additional swap requests,
which deadlocks. We address this by disabling the direct reclaim path
on zvols.

23bdb07d4e4c435205d25d3efdb5fef2d089ce5e updated the ARC memory limits
to be 1/2 of memory or all but 4GB. Unfortunately, these values assume
zero internal fragmentation in the SLUB allocator, when in reality, the
internal fragmentation could be as high as 50%, effectively doubling
memory usage. This poses clear safety issues, because it permits the
size of ARC to exceed system memory.
This patch changes this so that the default value of arc_c_max is always
1/2 of system memory. This effectively limits the ARC to the memory that
the system has physically installed.

Under Solaris the ARC was designed to stay one step ahead of the
VM subsystem. It would attempt to recognize low memory situtions
before they occured and evict data from the cache. It would also
make assessments about if there was enough free memory to perform
a specific operation.
This was all possible because Solaris exposes a fairly decent
view of the memory state of the system to other kernel threads.
Linux on the other hand does not make this information easily
available. To avoid extensive modifications to the ARC the SPL
attempts to provide these same interfaces. While this works it
is not ideal and problems can arise when the ARC and Linux have
different ideas about when your out of memory. This has manifested
itself in the past as a spinning arc_reclaim_thread.
This patch abandons the emulated Solaris interfaces in favor of
the prefered Linux interface. That means moving the bulk of the
memory reclaim logic out of the arc_reclaim_thread and in to the
evict driven shrinker callback. The Linux VM will call this
function when it needs memory. The ARC is then responsible for
attempting to free the requested amount of memory if possible.
Several interfaces have been modified to accomidate this approach,
however the basic user space implementation remains the same.
The following changes almost exclusively just apply to the kernel
implementation.
* Removed the hdr_recl() reclaim callback which is redundant
with the broader arc_shrinker_func().
* Reduced arc_grow_retry to 5 seconds from 60. This is now used
internally in the ARC with arc_no_grow to indicate that direct
reclaim was recently performed. This typically indicates a
rapid change in memory demands which the kswapd threads were
unable to keep ahead of. As long as direct reclaim is happening
once every 5 seconds arc growth will be paused to avoid further
contributing to the existing memory pressure. The more common
indirect reclaim paths will not set arc_no_grow.
* arc_shrink() has been extended to take the number of bytes by
which arc_c should be reduced. This allows for a more granual
reduction of the arc target. Since the kernel provides a
reclaim value to the arc_shrinker_func() this value is used
instead of 1<<arc_shrink_shift.
* arc_reclaim_needed() has been removed. It was used to determine
if the system was under memory pressure and relied extensively
on Solaris specific VM interfaces. In most case the new code
just checks arc_no_grow which indicates that within the last
arc_grow_retry seconds direct memory reclaim occurred.
* arc_memory_throttle() has been updated to always include the
amount of evictable memory (arc and page cache) in its free
space calculations. This space is largely available in most
call paths due to direct memory reclaim.
* The Solaris pageout code was also removed to avoid confusion.
It has always been disabled due to proc_pageout being defined
as NULL in the Linux port.

Expose the zfs_mdcomp_disable variable as a module option. This
can be used to disable compression of zfs meta data which is
enabled by default. This shouldn't need to be tuned but for
most workloads, however there may be very specific instances
where it makes sense to trade disk capacity for extra cpu cycles.

There is potential for deadlock in the l2arc_feed thread if KM_PUSHPAGE
is not used for the allocations made in l2arc_write_buffers.
Specifically, if KM_PUSHPAGE is not used for these allocations, it is
possible for reclaim to be triggered which can cause the l2arc_feed
thread to deadlock itself on the ARC_mru mutex. An example of this is
demonstrated in the following backtrace of the l2arc_feed thread:
