Commit 329e2ffa4bca456e65c3db7f5c5c04931c551b61 has made mount.zfs(8) to
call libzfs function 'zfs_mount_at', in order to propagate dataset
properties into mount options. This fix however, is limited to a special
use case where mount.zfs(8) is used in initrd with option '-o zfsutil'.
If either initrd or the user need to use mount.zfs(8) to mount a file
system with 'mountpoint' set to 'legacy', '-o zfsutil' can't be used and
the original issue #7947 will still happen.
Since the existing code already excluded the possibility of calling
'zfs_mount_at' when it was invoked as a helper program from zfs(8), by
checking 'ZFS_MOUNT_HELPER' environment variable, it makes no sense to
avoid calling 'zfs_mount_at' without '-o zfsutil'.
An exception however, is when mount.zfs(8) was invoked with '-o remount'
to update the mount options for an existing mount point. In this case
call mount(2) directly without modifying the mount options passed from
command line.
Furthermore, don't run mount.zfs(8) helper for automounting snapshot.
The above change to make mount.zfs(8) to call 'zfs_mount_at'
apparently caused it to trigger an automount for the snapshot
directory. When the helper was invoked as a result of a snapshot
automount, an infinite recursion will occur.
Since the need of invoking user mode mount(8) for automounting was to
overcome that the 'vfs_kern_mount' being GPL-only, just run mount(8)
without the mount.zfs(8) helper by adding option '-i'.

zfs_arc_shrinker_limit (default: 10000) avoids ARC collapse
due to excessive memory reclaim. However, when the kernel is
in direct reclaim mode (ie: low on memory), limiting ARC reclaim
increases OOM risk. This is especially true on system without
(or with inadequate) swap.
This patch ignores zfs_arc_shrinker_limit when the kernel is in
direct reclaim mode, avoiding most OOM. It also restores
"echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" ability to correctly drop
(almost) all ARC.

zvol queue limits initialization depends on `zv_volblocksize`, but it is

Closes#16397
Currently, if a minor is in use when we try to remove it, we'll skip it
and never come back to it again. Since the zvol state is hung off the
minor in the kernel, this can get us into weird situations if something
tries to use it after the removal fails. It's even worse at pool export,
as there's now a vestigial zvol state with no pool under it. It's
weirder again if the pool is subsequently reimported, as the zvol code
(reasonably) assumes the zvol state has been properly setup, when it's
actually left over from the previous import of the pool.
This commit attempts to tackle that by setting a flag on the zvol if its
minor can't be removed, and then checking that flag when a request is
made and rejecting it, thus stopping new work coming in.
The flag also causes a condvar to be signaled when the last client
finishes. For the case where a single minor is being removed (eg
changing volmode), it will wait for this signal before proceeding.
Meanwhile, when removing all minors, a background task is created for
each minor that couldn't be removed on the spot, and those tasks then
wake and clean up.
Since any new tasks are queued on to the pool's spa_zvol_taskq,
spa_export_common() will continue to wait at export until all minors are
removed.

- When receiving memory pressure signal from OS be more strict

- On Linux when receiving direct reclaim from some file system
(that may be ZFS) instead of ignoring request completely, just
shrink the ARC, but do not wait for eviction. Waiting there may
cause deadlock. Ignoring it as before may put extra pressure on
other caches and/or swap, and cause OOM if nothing help. While
not waiting may result in more ARC evicted later, and may be too
late if OOM killer activate right now, but I hope it to be better
than doing nothing at all.
- On Linux set arc_no_grow before waiting for reclaim, not after,
or it may grow back while we are waiting.
- On Linux add new parameter zfs_arc_shrinker_seeks to balance
ARC eviction cost, relative to page cache and other subsystems.

Linux has started moving to a model where instead of applying block
queue limits through individual modification functions, a complete
limits structure is built up and applied atomically, either when the
block device or open, or some time afterwards. As of 6.10 this
transition appears only partly completed.
This commit matches that model within OpenZFS in a way that should work
for past and future kernels. We set up a queue limits structure with any
limits that have had their modification functions removed. For newer
kernels that can have limits applied at block device open
(HAVE_BLK_ALLOC_DISK_2ARG), we have a conversion function to turn the
OpenZFS queue limits structure into Linux's queue_limits structure,
which can then be passed in. For older kernels, we provide an
application function that just calls the old functions for each limit in
the structure.

the failed zio would never be executed, resulting in txg_sync hanging
forever waiting for IO to finish.
This commit fixes that by immediately executing a failed zio on error.
To handle the successful synchronous op case, we fake an async op by,
when not using an asynchronous submission method, queuing the successful
result zio as part of the discard handler.
Since it was hard to understand the differences between discard and
secure erase, and sync and async, across different kernel versions, I've
commented and reorganised the code a bit to try and make everything more

43e8f6e37 introduced a subtle API misuse, in that it passed the output
from vdev_bdev_mode() back into itself. Fortunately, the
SPA_MODE_(READ|WRITE) bit values exactly map to the FMODE_(READ|WRITE) &
BLK_OPEN_(READ|WRITE) bit values, so it didn't result in a bug, but it
was hard to read and understand, so I cleaned it up.
In doing so, I noticed that the only call to vdev_bdev_mode() without
the "exclusive" flag set was in that misuse, and actually, we never do a
non-exclusive blkdev_get_by_path(). So I've just made exclusive be
always-on.

Closes#15995
currently, the linux kernel allows 2^20 minor devices per major device
number. ZFS reserves blocks of 2^4 minors per zvol: 1 for the zvol
itself, the other 15 for the first partitions of that zvol. as a result,
only 2^16 such blocks are available for use.
there are no checks in place to avoid overflowing into the major device
number when more than 2^16 zvols are allocated (with volmode=dev or
default). instead of ignoring this limit, which comes with all sorts of
weird knock-on effects, detect this situation and simply fail allocating
the zvol block device early on.
without this safeguard, the kernel will reject the attempt to create an
already existing block device, but ZFS doesn't handle this error and
gets confused about which zvol occupies which minor slot, potentially
resulting in kernel NULL derefs and other issues later on.

Closes#16006
Before 4.5 (specifically, torvalds/linux@ddc58f2), head and tail pages
in a compound page were refcounted separately. This means that using the
head page without taking a reference to it could see it cleaned up later
before we're finished with it. Specifically, bio_add_page() would take a
reference, and drop its reference after the bio completion callback
returns.
If the zio is executed immediately from the completion callback, this is
usually ok, as any data is referenced through the tail page referenced
by the ABD, and so becomes "live" that way. If there's a delay in zio
execution (high load, error injection), then the head page can be freed,
along with any dirty flags or other indicators that the underlying
memory is used. Later, when the zio completes and that memory is
accessed, its either unmapped and an unhandled fault takes down the
entire system, or it is mapped and we end up messing around in someone
else's memory. Both of these are very bad.
The solution on these older kernels is to take a reference to the head
page when we use it, and release it when we're done. There's not really
a sensible way under our current structure to do this; the "best" would
be to keep a list of head page references in the ABD, and release them
when the ABD is freed.
Since this additional overhead is totally unnecessary on 4.5+, where
head and tail pages share refcounts, I've opted to simply not use the
compound head in ABD page iteration there. This is theoretically less
efficient (though cleaning up head page references would add overhead),
but its safe, and we still get the other benefits of not mapping pages
before adding them to a bio and not mis-splitting pages.
There doesn't appear to be an obvious symbol name or config option we
can match on to discover this behaviour in configure (and the mm/page
APIs have changed a lot since then anyway), so I've gone with a simple
version check.

Closes#15533Closes#15588
This commit tackles a number of issues in the way BIOs (`struct bio`)
are constructed for submission to the Linux block layer.
The kernel has a hard upper limit on the number of pages/segments that
can be added to a BIO, as well as a separate limit for each device
(related to its queue depth and other scheduling characteristics).
ZFS counts the number of memory pages in the request ABD
(`abd_nr_pages_off()`, and then uses that as the number of segments to
put into the BIO, up to the hard upper limit. If it requires more than
the limit, it will create multiple BIOs.
Leaving aside the fact that page count method is wrong (see below), not
limiting to the device segment max means that the device driver will
need to split the BIO in half. This is alone is not necessarily a
problem, but it interacts with another issue to cause a much larger
problem.
The kernel function to add a segment to a BIO (`bio_add_page()`) takes a
`struct page` pointer, and offset+len within it. `struct page` can
represent a run of contiguous memory pages (known as a "compound page").
In can be of arbitrary length.
The ZFS functions that count ABD pages and load them into the BIO
(`abd_nr_pages_off()`, `bio_map()` and `abd_bio_map_off()`) will never
consider a page to be more than `PAGE_SIZE` (4K), even if the `struct
page` is for multiple pages. In this case, it will load the same `struct
page` into the BIO multiple times, with the offset adjusted each time.
With a sufficiently large ABD, this can easily lead to the BIO being
entirely filled much earlier than it could have been. This is also
further contributes to the problem caused by the incorrect segment limit
calculation, as its much easier to go past the device limit, and so
require a split.
Again, this is not a problem on its own.
The logic for "never submit more than `PAGE_SIZE`" is actually a little
more subtle. It will actually never submit a buffer that crosses a 4K
page boundary.
In practice, this is fine, as most ABDs are scattered, that is a list of
complete 4K pages, and so are loaded in as such.
Linear ABDs are typically allocated from slabs, and for small sizes they
are frequently not aligned to page boundaries. For example, a 12K
allocation can span four pages, eg:
-- 4K -- -- 4K -- -- 4K -- -- 4K --
| | | | |
:## ######## ######## ######: [1K, 4K, 4K, 3K]
Such an allocation would be loaded into a BIO as you see:
[1K, 4K, 4K, 3K]
This tends not to be a problem in practice, because even if the BIO were
filled and needed to be split, each half would still have either a start
or end aligned to the logical block size of the device (assuming 4K at
least).
---
In ideal circumstances, these shortcomings don't cause any particular
problems. Its when they start to interact with other ZFS features that
things get interesting.
Aggregation will create a "gang" ABD, which is simply a list of other
ABDs. Iterating over a gang ABD is just iterating over each ABD within
it in turn.
Because the segments are simply loaded in order, we can end up with
uneven segments either side of the "gap" between the two ABDs. For
example, two 12K ABDs might be aggregated and then loaded as:
[1K, 4K, 4K, 3K, 2K, 4K, 4K, 2K]
Should a split occur, each individual BIO can end up either having an
start or end offset that is not aligned to the logical block size, which
some drivers (eg SCSI) will reject. However, this tends not to happen
because the default aggregation limit usually keeps the BIO small enough
to not require more than one split, and most pages are actually full 4K
pages, so hitting an uneven gap is very rare anyway.
If the pool is under particular memory pressure, then an IO can be
broken down into a "gang block", a 512-byte block composed of a header
and up to three block pointers. Each points to a fragment of the
original write, or in turn, another gang block, breaking the original
data up over and over until space can be found in the pool for each of
them.
Each gang header is a separate 512-byte memory allocation from a slab,
that needs to be written down to disk. When the gang header is added to
the BIO, its a single 512-byte segment.
Pulling all this together, consider a large aggregated write of gang
blocks. This results a BIO containing lots of 512-byte segments. Given
our tendency to overfill the BIO, a split is likely, and most possible
split points will yield a pair of BIOs that are misaligned. Drivers that
care, like the SCSI driver, will reject them.
---
This commit is a substantial refactor and rewrite of much of `vdev_disk`
to sort all this out.
`vdev_bio_max_segs()` now returns the ideal maximum size for the device,
if available. There's also a tuneable `zfs_vdev_disk_max_segs` to
override this, to assist with testing.
We scan the ABD up front to count the number of pages within it, and to
confirm that if we submitted all those pages to one or more BIOs, it
could be split at any point with creating a misaligned BIO. If the
pages in the BIO are not usable (as in any of the above situations), the
ABD is linearised, and then checked again. This is the same technique
used in `vdev_geom` on FreeBSD, adjusted for Linux's variable page size
and allocator quirks.
`vbio_t` is a cleanup and enhancement of the old `dio_request_t`. The
idea is simply that it can hold all the state needed to create, submit
and return multiple BIOs, including all the refcounts, the ABD copy if
it was needed, and so on. Apart from what I hope is a clearer interface,
the major difference is that because we know how many BIOs we'll need up
front, we don't need the old overflow logic that would grow the BIO
array, throw away all the old work and restart. We can get it right from
the start.
