To save valuable stack all zio's were made asynchronous when in the
tgx_sync_thread context or during pool initialization. See commit
2fac4c2 for the original patch and motivation.
Unfortuantely, the changes to dsl_pool_sync_context() made by the
feature flags broke this logic causing in __zio_execute() to dispatch
itself infinitely when called during pool initialization. This
commit refines the existing logic to specificly target only the two

In a debug build, certain GCC versions flag an array bounds warning in
the below code from dnode_sync.c
} else {
int i;
ASSERT(dn->dn_next_nblkptr[txgoff] < dnp->dn_nblkptr);
/* the blkptrs we are losing better be unallocated */
for (i = dn->dn_next_nblkptr[txgoff];
i < dnp->dn_nblkptr; i++)
ASSERT(BP_IS_HOLE(&dnp->dn_blkptr[i]));
This usage is in fact safe, since the ASSERT ensures the index does
not exceed to maximum possible number of block pointers. However gcc
can't determine that the assignment 'i = dn->dn_next_nblkptr[txgoff];'
falls within the array bounds so it issues a warning. To avoid this,
initialize i to zero to make gcc happy but skip the elements before
dn->dn_next_nblkptr[txgoff] in the loop body. Since a dnode contains
at most 3 block pointers this overhead should be negligible.

This reverts commit 9dcb971983
which was originally introduced to debug occasional slow I/Os.
These I/Os would complete eventually but were observed to take
several 100 seconds.
The root cause of this issue was the CFQ scheduler which can,
under certain conditions, excessively delay an I/O from being
issued to the device. This issue was mitigated somewhat by
commit 84daaddedb which ensures
the I/O elevator gets changed even for DM style devices.
This change isn't in any way harmful but it does conflict with
a required change to properly account from I/O wait time.
Because Linux does not export the io_schedule_timeout() function
we must instead rely on io_schedule() via cv_wait_io().
The additional debugging information which was added to the
delay event has been intentionally left in place.

In all but one case the spa_namespace_lock is taken before the
bdev->bd_mutex lock. But Linux __blkdev_get() function calls
fops->open() with the bdev->bd_mutex lock held and we must
somehow still safely acquire the spa_namespace_lock.
To avoid a potential lock inversion deadlock we preemptively
try to take the spa_namespace_lock(). Normally it will not
be contended and this is safe because spa_open_common() handles
the case where the caller already holds the spa_namespace_lock.
When it is contended we risk a lock inversion if we were to
block waiting for the lock. Luckily, the __blkdev_get()
function allows us to return -ERESTARTSYS which will result in
bdev->bd_mutex being dropped, reacquired, and fops->open() being
called again. This process can be repeated safely until both
locks are acquired.

It's my understanding that the zfs_fsyncer_key TSD was added as

(100+ms) fsync() system call times for fsync() heavy workloads.
However, under Linux I'm not seeing the same contention that
was originally described. Therefore, I'm removing this code
in order to ween ourselves off any dependence on TSD. If the
original performance issue reappears on Linux we can revisit
fixing it without resorting to TSD.
This just leaves one small ZFS TSD consumer. If it can be
cleanly removed from the code we'll be able to shed the SPL

Closeszfsonlinux/spl#174
The current state of udev and devicer-mapper devices makes it difficult
to construct a mapping of DM partitions and their underlying DM device.
For example, with a /dev directory with the following contents:
$ ls -d /dev/dm-*
/dev/dm-0
/dev/dm-1
/dev/dm-2
/dev/dm-3
it is not immediately apparent if these are completely separate devices,
or partitions and real devices intermixed. In contrast, SCSI devices
would appear as so:
$ ls -d /dev/sd*
/dev/sda
/dev/sda1
/dev/sdb
/dev/sdb1
Here, one can immediately determine that there are two devices (sda and
sdb), each containing a single partition. The lack of a predictable and
consistent mapping from DM devices to DM device partitions makes it
difficult for user space to process these devices the same way it does
SCSI devices.
As a result, the ZFS utilities do not partition DM devices, and instead
set the "vdev_wholedisk" label to 0 and treat them as partitions. This
has the side effect that, even if ZFS has sole ownership of the device,
the IO scheduler will not be modified because it is treated as a
partition.
This change adds an exception for DM devices in vdev_elevator_switch,
allowing the elevator to be modified even though the "vdev_wholedisk"
property is not set.

This patch implemented the sops->dirty_inode() callback which is

Unlike normal file or directory znodes, an xattr znode is
guaranteed to only have a single parent. Therefore, we can
take a refernce on that parent if it is provided at create
time and cache it. Additionally, we take care to cache it
on any subsequent zfs_zaccess() where the parent is provided
as an optimization.
This allows us to avoid needing to do a zfs_zget() when
setting up the SELinux security xattr in the create path.
This is critical because a hash lookup on the directory
will deadlock since it is locked.
The zpl_xattr_security_init() call has also been moved up
to the zpl layer to ensure TXs to create the required
xattrs are performed after the create TX. Otherwise we
run the risk of deadlocking on the open create TX.
Ideally the security xattr should be fully constructed
before the new inode is unlocked. However, doing so would
require far more extensive changes to ZFS.
This change may also have the benefitial side effect of
ensuring xattr directory znodes are evicted from the cache
before normal file or directory znodes due to the extra
reference.

Gunnar Beutner did all the hard work on this one by correctly
identifying that this issue is a race between dmu_sync() and
dbuf_dirty().
Now in all cases the caller is responsible for preventing this
race by making sure the zfs_range_lock() is held when dirtying
a buffer which may be referenced in a log record. The mmap
case which relies on zfs_putpage() was not taking the range
lock. This code was accidentally dropped when the function
was rewritten for the Linux VFS.
This patch adds the required range locking to zfs_putpage().
It also adds the missing ZFS_ENTER()/ZFS_EXIT() macros which
aren't strictly required due to the VFS holding a reference.
However, this makes the code more consistent with the upsteam
code and there's no harm in being extra careful here.

When using a zvol to back a btrfs filesystem the btrfs mount
would hang. This was due to the bio completion callback used
in btrfs assuming that lower level drivers would never modify
the bio->bi_io_vecs after they were submitted via bio_submit().
If they are modified btrfs will miscalculate which pages need
to be unlocked resulting in a hang.
It's worth mentioning that other file systems such as ext[234]
and xfs work fine because they do not make the same assumption
in the bio completion callback.
The most straight forward way to fix the issue is to present
the semantics expected by btrfs. This is done by cloning the
bios attached to each request and then using the clones bvecs
to perform the required accounting. The clones are freed after
each read/write and the original unmodified bios are linked back
in to the request.

The interface for the ddt_zap_count() function assumes it can

Unfortunately, it has been observed that pools can be damaged in

In the current code, logbias=throughput implies the following:
1) All synchronous writes are logged in indirect mode.
2) The slog is not used.
(1) makes sense because it avoids writing the data twice, which is
obviously a good thing when the user wants maximum pool throughput.
(2), however, is a surprising decision. Considering all writes are
indirect, the log record doesn't contain the actual data, only pointers
to DMU blocks. As a result, log records written in logbias=throughput
mode are quite small, and as such, it doesn't make any sense to write
them to the main pool since slogs are usually optimized for small
synchronous writes.
In fact, the current behavior is actually harmful for performance,
because log blocks and data blocks from dmu_sync() seldom have the same
allocation size and as a result are usually allocated from different
metaslabs. This means that if a spindle has to write both log blocks and
DMU blocks (which is likely to happen under heavy load), it will have to
seek between the two. Allocating the log blocks from the slog pool
instead of the main pool avoids these unnecessary seeks.
This commit makes ZFS use the slog on datasets with logbias=throughput.
Real-life performance testing shows a 50% synchronous write performance
increase with some large commit sizes, and no negative effect in other
cases.

Issue #1013
Currently, ZIL blocks are spread over vdevs using hint block pointers
managed by the ZIL commit code and passed to metaslab_alloc(). Spreading
log blocks accross vdevs is important for performance: indeed, using
mutliple disks in parallel decreases the ZIL commit latency, which is
the main performance metric for synchronous writes. However, the current
implementation suffers from the following issues:
1) It would be best if the ZIL module was not aware of such low-level
details. They should be handled by the ZIO and metaslab modules;
2) Because the hint block pointer is managed per log, simultaneous
commits from multiple logs might use the same vdevs at the same time,
which is inefficient;
3) Because dmu_write() does not honor the block pointer hint, indirect
writes are not spread.
The naive solution of rotating the metaslab rotor each time a block is
allocated for the ZIL or dmu_sync() doesn't work in practice because the
first ZIL block to be written is actually allocated during the previous
commit. Consequently, when metaslab_alloc() decides the vdev for this
block, it will do so while a bunch of other allocations are happening at
the same time (from dmu_sync() and other ZILs). This means the vdev for
this block is chosen more or less at random. When the next commit
happens, there is a high chance (especially when the number of blocks
per commit is slightly less than the number of the disks) that one disk
will have to write two blocks (with a potential seek) while other disks
are sitting idle, which defeats spreading and increases the commit
latency.
This commit introduces a new concept in the metaslab allocator:
fastwrites. Basically, each top-level vdev maintains a counter
indicating the number of synchronous writes (from dmu_sync() and the
ZIL) which have been allocated but not yet completed. When the metaslab
is called with the FASTWRITE flag, it will choose the vdev with the
least amount of pending synchronous writes. If there are multiple vdevs
with the same value, the first matching vdev (starting from the rotor)
is used. Once metaslab_alloc() has decided which vdev the block is
allocated to, it updates the fastwrite counter for this vdev.
The rationale goes like this: when an allocation is done with
FASTWRITE, it "reserves" the vdev until the data is written. Until then,
all future allocations will naturally avoid this vdev, even after a full
rotation of the rotor. As a result, pending synchronous writes at a
given point in time will be nicely spread over all vdevs. This contrasts
with the previous algorithm, which is based on the implicit assumption
that blocks are written instantaneously after they're allocated.
metaslab_fastwrite_mark() and metaslab_fastwrite_unmark() are used to
manually increase or decrease fastwrite counters, respectively. They
should be used with caution, as there is no per-BP tracking of fastwrite
information, so leaks and "double-unmarks" are possible. There is,
however, an assert in the vdev teardown code which will fire if the
fastwrite counters are not zero when the pool is exported or the vdev
removed. Note that as stated above, marking is also done implictly by
metaslab_alloc().
ZIO also got a new FASTWRITE flag; when it is used, ZIO will pass it to
the metaslab when allocating (assuming ZIO does the allocation, which is
only true in the case of dmu_sync). This flag will also trigger an
unmark when zio_done() fires.
A side-effect of the new algorithm is that when a ZIL stops being used,
its last block can stay in the pending state (allocated but not yet
written) for a long time, polluting the fastwrite counters. To avoid
that, I've implemented a somewhat crude but working solution which
unmarks these pending blocks in zil_sync(), thus guaranteeing that
linguering fastwrites will get pruned at each sync event.
The best performance improvements are observed with pools using a large
number of top-level vdevs and heavy synchronous write workflows
(especially indirect writes and concurrent writes from multiple ZILs).
Real-life testing shows a 200% to 300% performance increase with
indirect writes and various commit sizes.

Issue #873
Currently, the size of read and write requests on vdevs is aligned
according to the vdev's ashift, allocating a new ZIO buffer and padding
if need be.
This makes sense for write requests to prevent read/modify/write if the
write happens to be smaller than the device's internal block size.
For reads however, the rationale is less clear. It seems that the
original code aligns reads because, on Solaris, device drivers will
outright refuse unaligned requests.
We don't have that issue on Linux. Indeed, Linux block devices are able
to accept requests of any size, and take care of alignment issues
themselves.
As a result, there's no point in enforcing alignment for read requests
on Linux. This is a nice optimization opportunity for two reasons:
- We remove a memory allocation in a heavily-used code path;
- The request gets aligned in the lowest layer possible, which shrinks
the path that the additional, useless padding data has to travel.
For example, when using 4k-sector drives that lie about their sector
size, using 512b read requests instead of 4k means that there will
be less data traveling down the ATA/SCSI interface, even though the
drive actually reads 4k from the platter.
The only exception is raidz, because raidz needs to read the whole
allocated block for parity.
This patch removes alignment enforcement for read requests, except on
raidz. Note that we also remove an assertion that checks that we're
aligning a top-level vdev I/O, because that's not the case anymore for
repair writes that results from failed reads.

There are currently three vmem_size() consumers all of which are
part of the ARC implemention. However, since the expected behavior
of the Linux and Solaris virtual memory subsystems are so different
the behavior in each of these instances needs to be reevaluated.
* arc_evict_needed() - This is actually dead code. Arena support
was never added to the SPL and zio_arena is always NULL. This
support isn't needed so we simply remove this dead code.
* arc_memory_throttle() - On Solaris where virtual memory constitutes
almost all of the address space we can reasonably expect there to be
a fairly large amount free. However, on Linux by default we only
have about 100MB total and that's heavily used by the ARC. So the
expectation on Linux is that this will usually be a small value.
Therefore we remove the vmem_size() check for i386 systems because
the expectation is that it will be less than the zfs_write_limit_max.
* arc_init() - Here vmem_size() is used to initially size the ARC.
Since the ARC is currently backed by the virtual address space it
makes sense to use this as a limit on the ARC for 32-bit systems.
This code can be removed when the ARC is backed by the page cache.

Commit c409e4647f introduced a
number of module parameters. This required several types to be
changed to accomidate the required module parameters Linux macros.
Unfortunately, arc.c contained its own extern definition of the
zfs_write_limit_max variable and its type was not updated to be
consistent with its dsl_pool.c counterpart. If the variable had
been properly marked extern in a common header, then gcc would
have generated a warning and this would not have slipped through.
The result of this was that the ARC unconditionally expected
zfs_write_limit_max to be 64-bit. Unfortunately, the largest size
integer module parameter that Linux supports is unsigned long, which
varies in size depending on the host system's native word size. The
effect was that on 32-bit systems, ARC incorrectly performed 64-bit
operations on a 32-bit value by reading the neighboring 32 bits as
the upper 32 bits of the 64-bit value.
We correct that by changing the extern declaration to use the unsigned
long type and move these extern definitions in to the common arc.h
header. This should make ARC correctly treat zfs_write_limit_max as a
32-bit value on 32-bit systems.

Currently, when processing DISCARD requests, zvol_discard() calls
dmu_free_long_range() with the precise offset and size of the request.
Unfortunately, this is not optimal for requests that are not aligned to
the zvol block boundaries. Indeed, in the case of an unaligned range,
dnode_free_range() will zero out the unaligned parts. Not only is this
useless since we are not freeing any space by doing so, it is also slow
because it translates to a read-modify-write operation.
This patch fixes the issue by rounding up the discard start offset to
the next volume block boundary, and rounding down the discard end
offset to the previous volume block boundary.

When zfs_replay_write() replays TX_WRITE records from ZIL
it calls zpl_write_common() to perform the actual write.
zpl_write_common() returns the number of bytes written
(similar to write() system call) or an (negative) error.
However, the code expects the positive return value to be
a residual counter. Thus when zpl_write_common() successfully
completes it is mistakenly considered to be a partial write and
the error code delivered further. At this point the ZIL processing
is aborted with famous "ZFS replay transaction error 5" error
message given to the message buffer.
The fix is to compare the zpl_write_commmon() return value with
the buffer size and flag error only when they disagree.

The 'zfs destroy' changes in 330d06f disrupted how zvol devices
get removed on ZoL. However, it basically boils down to the
fact that we are no longer reliably calling zvol_remove_minor()
via zfs_ioc_destroy_snaps().
Therefore we add the missing call and handle things similarly
to the existing zfs_unmount_snap() case. Ideally we would check
if this is of type DMU_OST_ZFS or DMU_OST_ZVOL and just do the
right thing as in zfs_ioc_destroy(). However, it looks like
it would be fairly expensive to get the type, and it's harmless
to simply attempt the umount and minor removal.

Buffers for the ARC are normally backed by the SPL virtual slab.
However, if memory is low, AND no slab objects are available,
AND a new slab cannot be quickly constructed a new emergency
object will be directly allocated.
These objects can be as large as order 5 on a system with 4k
pages. And because they are allocated with KM_PUSHPAGE, to
avoid a potential deadlock, they are not allowed to initiate I/O
to satisfy the allocation. This can result in the occasional
allocation failure.
However, since these allocations are allowed to block and
perform operations such as memory compaction they will eventually
succeed. Since this is not unexpected (just unlikely) behavior
this patch disables the warning for the allocation failure.

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.

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.

a hold is taken on the new dbuf and that hold must be released

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

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

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

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.

The end_writeback() function was changed by moving the call to

the ordering of the sync but it does not impact the details of
the zfs implementation.
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

Issue #784
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

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.

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.

23bdb07d4e 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.

be addressed by future commits.
*) Add automount support for kernels older the 2.6.37. This should
be possible using follow_link() which is what Linux did before.
*) Accessing the .zfs/snapshot directory via NFS is not yet possible.
The majority of the ground work for this is complete. However,
finishing this work will require resolving some lingering
integration issues with the Linux NFS kernel server.
*) The .zfs/shares directory exists but no futher smb functionality
has yet been implemented.

Add a standard zio constructor and destructor. Normally, this is

expensive operations such as memory allocations. However, in this
case none of the operations moved out of zio_create() were really
very expensive.
This change was principly made as a debug patch (and workaround)
for a zio_destroy() race. The is good evidence that zio_create()
is reinitializing a mutex which is really still in use by another

This patch doesn't fix the root cause of the race, but it should
make it less likely by only initializing the mutex once in the
constructor. Also, this particular flaw might have gone unnoticed
in other zfs implementations due to the specific implementation
details of Linux ticket spinlocks.
Once the real root cause is determined and resolved this change
can be safely reverted. Until then this should help workaround

This patch was slightly flawed and allowed for zio->io_logical
to potentially not be reinitialized for a new zio. This could
lead to assertion failures in specific cases when debugging is
enabled (--enable-debug) and I/O errors are encountered. It
may also have caused problems when issues logical I/Os.
Since we want to make sure this workaround can be easily removed
in the future (when we have the real fix). I'm reverting this
change and applying a new version of the patch which includes
the zio->io_logical fix.

Issue #496
A private SA handle must be used to ensure we can drop the dbuf
hold on the spill block prior to calling dmu_tx_commit(). If we
call dmu_tx_commit() before sa_handle_destroy(), then our hold
will trigger a copy of the dbuf to be made. This is done to
prevent data from leaking in to the syncing txg. As a result
the original dirty spill block will remain cached.
Additionally, relying on the shared zp->z_sa_hdl is unsafe in
the xattr context because the znode may be asynchronously dropped
from the cache. It's far safer and simpler just to use a private
handle for xattrs. Plus any additional overhead is offset by
the avoidance of the previously mentioned memory copy.
These forever dirty buffers can be noticed in the arcstats under
the anon_size. On a quiescent system the value should be zero.
Without this fix and a SA xattr write workload you will see
anon_size increase. Eventually, if enough dirty data builds up
your system it will appear to hang. This occurs because the dmu
won't allow new txs to be assigned until that dirty data is
flushed, and it won't be because it's not part of an assigned tx.
As an aside, I typically see anon_size lurk around 16k so I think
there is another place in the code which needs a similar fix.
However, this value doesn't grow over time so it isn't critical.

DISCARD (REQ_DISCARD, BLKDISCARD) is useful for thin provisioning.
It allows ZVOL clients to discard (unmap, trim) block ranges from
a ZVOL, thus optimizing disk space usage by allowing a ZVOL to
shrink instead of just grow.
We can't use zfs_space() or zfs_freesp() here, since these functions
only work on regular files, not volumes. Fortunately we can use the
low-level function dmu_free_long_range() which does exactly what we
want.
Currently the discard operation is not added to the log. That's not
a big deal since losing discard requests cannot result in data
corruption. It would however result in disk space usage higher than
it should be. Thus adding log support to zvol_discard() is probably
a good idea for a future improvement.

This operation allows "hole punching" in ZFS files. On Solaris this
is done via the vop_space() system call, which maps to the zfs_space()
function. So we just need to write zpl_truncate_range() as a wrapper
around zfs_space().
Note that this only works for regular files, not ZVOLs.
This is currently an insecure implementation without permission

Issue #334
Currently, the `zvol_threads` variable, which controls the number of worker
threads which process items from the ZVOL queues, is set to the number of
available CPUs.
This choice seems to be based on the assumption that ZVOL threads are
CPU-bound. This is not necessarily true, especially for synchronous writes.
Consider the situation described in the comments for `zil_commit()`, which is
called inside `zvol_write()` for synchronous writes:
> itxs are committed in batches. In a heavily stressed zil there will be a
> commit writer thread who is writing out a bunch of itxs to the log for a
> set of committing threads (cthreads) in the same batch as the writer.
> Those cthreads are all waiting on the same cv for that batch.
>
> There will also be a different and growing batch of threads that are
> waiting to commit (qthreads). When the committing batch completes a
> transition occurs such that the cthreads exit and the qthreads become
> cthreads. One of the new cthreads becomes he writer thread for the batch.
> Any new threads arriving become new qthreads.
We can easily deduce that, in the case of ZVOLs, there can be a maximum of
`zvol_threads` cthreads and qthreads. The default value for `zvol_threads` is
typically between 1 and 8, which is way too low in this case. This means
there will be a lot of small commits to the ZIL, which is very inefficient
compared to a few big commits, especially since we have to wait for the data
to be on stable storage. Increasing the number of threads will increase the
amount of data waiting to be commited and thus the size of the individual
commits.
On my system, in the context of VM disk image storage (lots of small
synchronous writes), increasing `zvol_threads` from 8 to 32 results in a 50%
increase in sequential synchronous write performance.
We should choose a more sensible default for `zvol_threads`. Unfortunately
the optimal value is difficult to determine automatically, since it depends
on the synchronous write latency of the underlying storage devices. In any
case, a hardcoded value of 32 would probably be better than the current
situation. Having a lot of ZVOL threads doesn't seem to have any real
downside anyway.

Fixes#392
The Linux block device queue subsystem exposes a number of configurable
settings described in Linux block/blk-settings.c. The defaults for these
settings are tuned for hard drives, and are not optimized for ZVOLs. Proper
configuration of these options would allow upper layers (I/O scheduler) to
take better decisions about write merging and ordering.
Detailed rationale:
- max_hw_sectors is set to unlimited (UINT_MAX). zvol_write() is able to
handle writes of any size, so there's no reason to impose a limit. Let the
upper layer decide.
- max_segments and max_segment_size are set to unlimited. zvol_write() will
copy the requests' contents into a dbuf anyway, so the number and size of
the segments are irrelevant. Let the upper layer decide.
- physical_block_size and io_opt are set to the ZVOL's block size. This
has the potential to somewhat alleviate issue #361 for ZVOLs, by warning
the upper layers that writes smaller than the volume's block size will be
slow.
- The NONROT flag is set to indicate this isn't a rotational device.
Although the backing zpool might be composed of rotational devices, the
resulting ZVOL often doesn't exhibit the same behavior due to the COW
mechanisms used by ZFS. Setting this flag will prevent upper layers from
making useless decisions (such as reordering writes) based on incorrect
assumptions about the behavior of the ZVOL.

zvol_write() assumes that the write request must be written to stable storage
if rq_is_sync() is true. Unfortunately, this assumption is incorrect. Indeed,
"sync" does *not* mean what we think it means in the context of the Linux
block layer. This is well explained in linux/fs.h:
WRITE: A normal async write. Device will be plugged.
WRITE_SYNC: Synchronous write. Identical to WRITE, but passes down
the hint that someone will be waiting on this IO
shortly.
WRITE_FLUSH: Like WRITE_SYNC but with preceding cache flush.
WRITE_FUA: Like WRITE_SYNC but data is guaranteed to be on
non-volatile media on completion.
In other words, SYNC does not *mean* that the write must be on stable storage
on completion. It just means that someone is waiting on us to complete the
write request. Thus triggering a ZIL commit for each SYNC write request on a
ZVOL is unnecessary and harmful for performance. To make matters worse, ZVOL
users have no way to express that they actually want data to be written to
stable storage, which means the ZIL is broken for ZVOLs.
The request for stable storage is expressed by the FUA flag, so we must
commit the ZIL after the write if the FUA flag is set. In addition, we must
commit the ZIL before the write if the FLUSH flag is set.
Also, we must inform the block layer that we actually support FLUSH and FUA.

When using zfs to back a Lustre filesystem it's advantageous to
to store a fid with the object id in the directory zap. The only
technical impediment to doing this is that the zpl code expects
a single value in the zap per directory entry.
This change relaxes that requirement such that multiple entries
are allowed provided the first one is the object id. The zpl
code will just ignore additional entries. This allows the ZoL
count to mount datasets which are being used as Lustre server
backends.
Once the upstream feature flags support is merged in this change
should be updated to a read-only feature. Until this occurs
other zfs implementations will not be able to read the zfs

As described in Issue #458 and #258, unlinking large amounts of data
can cause the threads in the zio free wait queue to start spinning.
Reducing the number of z_fr_iss threads from a fixed value of 100 to 1
per cpu signficantly reduces contention on the taskq spinlock and
improves throughput.
Instrumenting the taskq code showed that __taskq_dispatch() can spend
a long time holding tq->tq_lock if there are a large number of threads
in the queue. It turns out the time spent in wake_up() scales
linearly with the number of threads in the queue. When a large number
of short work items are dispatched, as seems to be the case with
unlink, the worker threads drain the queue faster than the dispatcher
can fill it. They then all pile into the work wait queue to wait for
new work items. So if 100 threads are in the queue, wake_up() takes
about 100 times as long, and the woken threads have to spin until the
dispatcher releases the lock.
Reducing the number of threads helps with the symptoms, but doesn't
get to the root of the problem. It would seem that wake_up()
shouldn't scale linearly in time with queue depth, particularly if we
are only trying to wake up one thread. In that vein, I tried making
all of the waiting processes exclusive to prevent the scheduler from
iterating over the entire list, but I still saw the linear time
scaling. So further investigation is needed, but in the meantime
reducing the thread count is an easy workaround.

The Linux 3.1 kernel has introduced the concept of per-filesystem
shrinkers which are directly assoicated with a super block. Prior
to this change there was one shared global shrinker.
The zfs code relied on being able to call the global shrinker when
the arc_meta_limit was exceeded. This would cause the VFS to drop
references on a fraction of the dentries in the dcache. The ARC
could then safely reclaim the memory used by these entries and
honor the arc_meta_limit. Unfortunately, when per-filesystem
shrinkers were added the old interfaces were made unavailable.
This change adds support to use the new per-filesystem shrinker
interface so we can continue to honor the arc_meta_limit. The
major benefit of the new interface is that we can now target
only the zfs filesystem for dentry and inode pruning. Thus we
can minimize any impact on the caching of other filesystems.
In the context of making this change several other important
issues related to managing the ARC were addressed, they include:
* The dnlc_reduce_cache() function which was called by the ARC
to drop dentries for the Posix layer was replaced with a generic
zfs_prune_t callback. The ZPL layer now registers a callback to
drop these dentries removing a layering violation which dates
back to the Solaris code. This callback can also be used by
other ARC consumers such as Lustre.
arc_add_prune_callback()
arc_remove_prune_callback()
* The arc_reduce_dnlc_percent module option has been changed to
arc_meta_prune for clarity. The dnlc functions are specific to
Solaris's VFS and have already been largely eliminated already.
The replacement tunable now represents the number of bytes the
prune callback will request when invoked.
* Less aggressively invoke the prune callback. We used to call
this whenever we exceeded the arc_meta_limit however that's not
strictly correct since it results in over zeleous reclaim of
dentries and inodes. It is now only called once the arc_meta_limit
is exceeded and every effort has been made to evict other data from
the ARC cache.
* More promptly manage exceeding the arc_meta_limit. When reading
meta data in to the cache if a buffer was unable to be recycled
notify the arc_reclaim thread to invoke the required prune.
* Added arcstat_prune kstat which is incremented when the ARC
is forced to request that a consumer prune its cache. Remember
this will only occur when the ARC has no other choice. If it
can evict buffers safely without invoking the prune callback
it will.
* This change is also expected to resolve the unexpect collapses
of the ARC cache. This would occur because when exceeded just the
arc_meta_limit reclaim presure would be excerted on the arc_c
value via arc_shrink(). This effectively shrunk the entire cache
when really we just needed to reclaim meta data.

Issue #392
In the upstream OpenSolaris ZFS code the maximum ARC usage is
limited to 3/4 of memory or all but 1GB, whichever is larger.
Because of how Linux's VM subsystem is organized these defaults
have proven to be too large which can lead to stability issues.
To avoid making everyone manually tune the ARC the defaults are
being changed to 1/2 of memory or all but 4GB. The rational for
this is as follows:
* Desktop Systems (less than 8GB of memory)
Limiting the ARC to 1/2 of memory is desirable for desktop
systems which have highly dynamic memory requirements. For
example, launching your web browser can suddenly result in a
demand for several gigabytes of memory. This memory must be
reclaimed from the ARC cache which can take some time. The
user will experience this reclaim time as a sluggish system
with poor interactive performance. Thus in this case it is
preferable to leave the memory as free and available for
immediate use.
* Server Systems (more than 8GB of memory)
Using all but 4GB of memory for the ARC is preferable for
server systems. These systems often run with minimal user
interaction and have long running daemons with relatively
stable memory demands. These systems will benefit most by
having as much data cached in memory as possible.
These values should work well for most configurations. However,
if you have a desktop system with more than 8GB of memory you may
wish to further restrict the ARC. This can still be accomplished
by setting the 'zfs_arc_max' module option.
Additionally, keep in mind these aren't currently hard limits.
The ARC is based on a slab implementation which can suffer from
memory fragmentation. Because this fragmentation is not visible
from the ARC it may believe it is within the specified limits while
actually consuming slightly more memory. How much more memory get's
consumed will be determined by how badly fragmented the slabs are.
In the long term this can be mitigated by slab defragmentation code
which was OpenSolaris solution. Or preferably, using the page cache
to back the ARC under Linux would be even better. See issue #75
for the benefits of more tightly integrating with the page cache.
This change also fixes a issue where the default ARC max was being
set incorrectly for machines with less than 2GB of memory. The
constant in the arc_c_max comparison must be explicitly cast to
a uint64_t type to prevent overflow and the wrong conditional
branch being taken. This failure was typically observed in VMs
which are commonly created with less than 2GB of memory.

Issue #75
The Solaris version of ZFS does not allow xattrs to be set on
symlinks due to the way they implemented the attropen() system
call. Linux however implements xattrs through the lgetxattr()
and lsetxattr() system calls which do not have this limitation.
The only reason this hasn't always worked under ZFS on Linux
is that the xattr handlers were not registered for symlink type
inodes. This was done simply to be consistent with the Solaris
behavior.
Upon futher reflection I believe this should be allowed under
Linux. The only ill effect would be that the xattrs on symlinks
will not be visible when the pool is imported on a Solaris
system. This also has the benefit that it allows for SELinux
style security xattr labeling which expects to be able to set
xattrs on all inode types.

The current ZFS implementation stores xattrs on disk using a hidden
directory. In this directory a file name represents the xattr name
and the file contexts are the xattr binary data. This approach is
very flexible and allows for arbitrarily large xattrs. However,
it also suffers from a significant performance penalty. Accessing
a single xattr can requires up to three disk seeks.
1) Lookup the dnode object.
2) Lookup the dnodes's xattr directory object.
3) Lookup the xattr object in the directory.
To avoid this performance penalty Linux filesystems such as ext3
and xfs try to store the xattr as part of the inode on disk. When
the xattr is to large to store in the inode then a single external
block is allocated for them. In practice most xattrs are small
and this approach works well.
The addition of System Attributes (SA) to zfs provides us a clean
way to make this optimization. When the dataset property 'xattr=sa'
is set then xattrs will be preferentially stored as System Attributes.
This allows tiny xattrs (~100 bytes) to be stored with the dnode and
up to 64k of xattrs to be stored in the spill block. If additional
xattr space is required, which is unlikely under Linux, they will be
stored using the traditional directory approach.
This optimization results in roughly a 3x performance improvement
when accessing xattrs which brings zfs roughly to parity with ext4
and xfs (see table below). When multiple xattrs are stored per-file
the performance improvements are even greater because all of the
xattrs stored in the spill block will be cached.
However, by default SA based xattrs are disabled in the Linux port
to maximize compatibility with other implementations. If you do
enable SA based xattrs then they will not be visible on platforms
which do not support this feature.

Issue #443
The Linux 3.1 kernel updated the fops->fsync() callback yet again.
They now pass the requested range and delegate the responsibility
for calling filemap_write_and_wait_range() to the callback. In
addition imutex is no longer held by the caller and the callback
is responsible for taking the lock if required.
This commit updates the code to provide a zpl_fsync() function
for the updated API. Implementations for the previous two APIs
are also maintained for compatibility.

Update the code to use the bdi_setup_and_register() helper to
simplify the bdi integration code. The updated code now just
registers the bdi during mount and destroys it during unmount.
The only complication is that for 2.6.32 - 2.6.33 kernels the
helper wasn't available so in these cases the zfs code must
provide it. Luckily the bdi_setup_and_register() function
is trivial.

Profiling the system during meta data intensive workloads such
as creating/removing millions of files, revealed that the system
was cpu bound. A large fraction of that cpu time was being spent
waiting on the virtual address space spin lock.
It turns out this was caused by certain heavily used kmem_caches
being backed by virtual memory. By default a kmem_cache will
dynamically determine the type of memory used based on the object
size. For large objects virtual memory is usually preferable
and for small object physical memory is a better choice. See
the spl_slab_alloc() function for a longer discussion on this.
However, there is a certain amount of gray area when defining a
'large' object. For the following caches it turns out they were
just over the line:
* dnode_cache
* zio_cache
* zio_link_cache
* zio_buf_512_cache
* zfs_data_buf_512_cache
Now because we know there will be a lot of churn in these caches,
and because we know the slabs will still be reasonably sized.
We can safely request with the KMC_KMEM flag that the caches be
backed with physical memory addresses. This entirely avoids the
need to serialize on the virtual address space lock.
As a bonus this also reduces our vmalloc usage which will be good
for 32-bit kernels which have a very small virtual address space.
It will also probably be good for interactive performance since
unrelated processes could also block of this same global lock.
Finally, we may see less cpu time being burned in the arc_reclaim
and txg_sync_threads.

When calculating space needed for SA_BONUS buffers, hdrsize is
always rounded up to next 8-aligned boundary. However, in two places
the round up was done against sum of 'total' plus hdrsize. On the
other hand, hdrsize increments by 4 each time, which means in certain
conditions, we would end up returning with will_spill == 0 and
(total + hdrsize) larger than full_space, leading to a failed
assertion because it's invalid for dmu_set_bonus.

Due to the confusion in Linux statfs between f_frsize and f_bsize
the blocks counts were changed to be in units of z_max_blksize
instead of SPA_MINBLOCKSIZE as it is on other platforms.
However, the free files calculation in zfs_statvfs() is limited by
the free blocks count, since each dnode consumes one block/sector.
This provided a reasonable estimate of free inodes, but on Linux
this meant that the free inodes count was underestimated by a large
amount, since 256 512-byte dnodes can fit into a 128kB block, and
more if the max blocksize is increased to 1MB or larger.
Also, the use of SPA_MINBLOCKSIZE is semantically incorrect since
DNODE_SIZE may change to a value other than SPA_MINBLOCKSIZE and
may even change per dataset, and devices with large sectors setting
ashift will also use a larger blocksize.

This warning was accidentally introduced by commit
f3ab88d646 which updated the
.readpages() implementation. The fix is to simply cast
the helper function to the appropriate type when passed.
Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>
Unlike the .readpage() callback which is passed a single locked page
to be populated. The .readpages() callback is passed a list of unlocked
pages which are all marked for read-ahead (PG_readahead set). It is
the responsibly of .readpages() to ensure to pages are properly locked
before being populated.
Prior to this change the requested read-ahead pages would be updated
outside of the page lock which is unsafe. The unlocked pages would then
be unlocked again which is harmless but should have been immediately
detected as bug. Unfortunately, newer kernels failed detect this issue
because the check is done with a VM_BUG_ON which is disabled by default.
Luckily, the old Debian Lenny 2.6.26 kernel caught this because it
simply uses a BUG_ON.
The straight forward fix for this is to update the .readpages() callback
to use the read_cache_pages() helper function. The helper function will
ensure that each page in the list is properly locked before it is passed
to the .readpage() callback. In addition resolving the bug, this results
in a nice simplification of the existing code.
The downside to this change is that instead of passing one large read
request to the dmu multiple smaller ones are submitted. All of these
requests however are marked for readahead so the lower layers should
issue a large I/O regardless. Thus most of the request should hit the
ARC cache.
Futher optimization of this code can be done in the future is a perform
analysis determines it to be worthwhile. But for the moment, it is
preferable that code be correct and understandable.

Closes#355
For a long time now the kernel has been moving away from using the
pdflush daemon to write 'old' dirty pages to disk. The primary reason
for this is because the pdflush daemon is single threaded and can be
a limiting factor for performance. Since pdflush sequentially walks
the dirty inode list for each super block any delay in processing can
slow down dirty page writeback for all filesystems.
The replacement for pdflush is called bdi (backing device info). The
bdi system involves creating a per-filesystem control structure each
with its own private sets of queues to manage writeback. The advantage
is greater parallelism which improves performance and prevents a single
filesystem from slowing writeback to the others.
For a long time both systems co-existed in the kernel so it wasn't
strictly required to implement the bdi scheme. However, as of
Linux 2.6.36 kernels the pdflush functionality has been retired.
Since ZFS already bypasses the page cache for most I/O this is only
an issue for mmap(2) writes which must go through the page cache.
Even then adding this missing support for newer kernels was overlooked
because there are other mechanisms which can trigger writeback.
However, there is one critical case where not implementing the bdi
functionality can cause problems. If an application handles a page
fault it can enter the balance_dirty_pages() callpath. This will
result in the application hanging until the number of dirty pages in
the system drops below the dirty ratio.
Without a registered backing_device_info for the filesystem the
dirty pages will not get written out. Thus the application will hang.
As mentioned above this was less of an issue with older kernels because
pdflush would eventually write out the dirty pages.
This change adds a backing_device_info structure to the zfs_sb_t
which is already allocated per-super block. It is then registered
when the filesystem mounted and unregistered on unmount. It will
not be registered for mounted snapshots which are read-only. This
change will result in flush-<pool> thread being dynamically created
and destroyed per-mounted filesystem for writeback.

Closes#174
While the existing implementation of .writepage()/zpl_putpage() was
functional it was not entirely correct. In particular, it would move
dirty pages in to a clean state simply after copying them in to the
ARC cache. This would result in the pages being lost if the system
were to crash enough though the Linux VFS believed them to be safe on
stable storage.
Since at the moment virtually all I/O, except mmap(2), bypasses the
page cache this isn't as bad as it sounds. However, as hopefully
start using the page cache more getting this right becomes more
important so it's good to improve this now.
This patch takes a big step in that direction by updating the code
to correctly move dirty pages through a writeback phase before they
are marked clean. When a dirty page is copied in to the ARC it will
now be set in writeback and a completion callback is registered with
the transaction. The page will stay in writeback until the dmu runs
the completion callback indicating the page is on stable storage.
At this point the page can be safely marked clean.
This process is normally entirely asynchronous and will be repeated
for every dirty page. This may initially sound inefficient but most
of these pages will end up in a few txgs. That means when they are
eventually written to disk they should be nicely batched. However,
there is room for improvement. It may still be desirable to batch
up the pages in to larger writes for the dmu. This would reduce
the number of callbacks and small 4k buffer required by the ARC.
Finally, if the caller requires that the I/O be done synchronously
by setting WB_SYNC_ALL or if ZFS_SYNC_ALWAYS is set. Then the I/O
will trigger a zil_commit() to flush the data to stable storage.
At which point the registered callbacks will be run leaving the
date safe of disk and marked clean before returning from .writepage.

The function txg_delay() is used to delay txg (transaction group)
threads in ZFS. The timeout value for this function is calculated
using:
int timeout = ddi_get_lbolt() + ticks;
Later, the actual wait is performed:
while (ddi_get_lbolt() < timeout &&
tx->tx_syncing_txg < txg-1 && !txg_stalled(dp))
(void) cv_timedwait(&tx->tx_quiesce_more_cv, &tx->tx_sync_lock,
timeout - ddi_get_lbolt());
The ddi_get_lbolt() function returns current uptime in clock ticks
and is typed as clock_t. The clock_t type on 64-bit architectures
is int64_t.
The "timeout" variable will overflow depending on the tick frequency
(e.g. for 1000 it will overflow in 28.855 days). This will make the
expression "ddi_get_lbolt() < timeout" always false - txg threads will
not be delayed anymore at all. This leads to a slowdown in ZFS writes.
The attached patch initializes timeout as clock_t to match the return
value of ddi_get_lbolt().

Issue #352
Prior to revision 11314 if a user was recursively destroying
snapshots of a dataset the target dataset was not required to
exist. The zfs_secpolicy_destroy_snaps() function introduced
the security check on the target dataset, so since then if the
target dataset does not exist, the recursive destroy is not
performed. Before 11314, only a delete permission check on
the snapshot's master dataset was performed.
Steps to reproduce:
zfs create pool/a
zfs snapshot pool/a@s1
zfs destroy -r pool@s1
Therefore I suggest to fallback to the old security check, if
the target snapshot does not exist and continue with the destroy.

Hypothesis about what's going on here.
At some time in the past, something, i.e. dnode_reallocate()
calls one of:
dbuf_rm_spill(dn, tx);
These will do:
dbuf_rm_spill(dnode_t *dn, dmu_tx_t *tx)
dbuf_free_range(dn, DMU_SPILL_BLKID, DMU_SPILL_BLKID, tx)
dbuf_undirty(db, tx)
Currently dbuf_undirty can leave a spill block in dn_dirty_records[],
(it having been put there previously by dbuf_dirty) and free it.
Sometime later, dbuf_sync_list trips over this reference to free'd
(and typically reused) memory.
Also, dbuf_undirty can call dnode_clear_range with a bogus
block ID. It needs to test for DMU_SPILL_BLKID, similar to
how dnode_clear_range is called in dbuf_dirty().
