8fb1ede146 Extend deadman logic
The intent of this patch is extend the existing deadman code
such that it's flexible enough to be used by both ztest and
on production systems.  The proposed changes include:

* Added a new `zfs_deadman_failmode` module option which is
  used to dynamically control the behavior of the deadman.  It's
  loosely modeled after, but independant from, the pool failmode
  property.  It can be set to wait, continue, or panic.

    * wait     - Wait for the "hung" I/O (default)
    * continue - Attempt to recover from a "hung" I/O
    * panic    - Panic the system

* Added a new `zfs_deadman_ziotime_ms` module option which is
  analogous to `zfs_deadman_synctime_ms` except instead of
  applying to a pool TXG sync it applies to zio_wait().  A
  default value of 300s is used to define a "hung" zio.

* The ztest deadman thread has been re-enabled by default,
  aligned with the upstream OpenZFS code, and then extended
  to terminate the process when it takes significantly longer
  to complete than expected.

* The -G option was added to ztest to print the internal debug
  log when a fatal error is encountered.  This same option was
  previously added to zdb in commit fa603f82.  Update zloop.sh
  to unconditionally pass -G to obtain additional debugging.

* The FM_EREPORT_ZFS_DELAY event which was previously posted
  when the deadman detect a "hung" pool has been replaced by
  a new dedicated FM_EREPORT_ZFS_DEADMAN event.

* The proposed recovery logic attempts to restart a "hung"
  zio by calling zio_interrupt() on any outstanding leaf zios.
  We may want to further restrict this to zios in either the
  ZIO_STAGE_VDEV_IO_START or ZIO_STAGE_VDEV_IO_DONE stages.
  Calling zio_interrupt() is expected to only be useful for
  cases when an IO has been submitted to the physical device
  but for some reasonable the completion callback hasn't been
  called by the lower layers.  This shouldn't be possible but
  has been observed and may be caused by kernel/driver bugs.

* The 'zfs_deadman_synctime_ms' default value was reduced from
  1000s to 600s.

* Depending on how ztest fails there may be no cache file to
  move.  This should not be considered fatal, collect the logs
  which are available and carry on.

* Add deadman test cases for spa_deadman() and zio_wait().

* Increase default zfs_deadman_checktime_ms to 60s.

PROBLEM
=======

There's a race condition that exists if `zil_free_lwb` races with either
`zil_commit_waiter_timeout` and/or `zil_lwb_flush_vdevs_done`.

Here's an example panic due to this bug:

    > ::status

    write+0x250(42, fffffd7ff4832000, 2000)
    sys_syscall+0x177()

If there's an outstanding lwb that's in `zil_commit_waiter_timeout`
waiting to timeout, waiting on it's waiter's CV, we must be sure not to
call `zil_free_lwb`. If we end up calling `zil_free_lwb`, then that LWB
may be freed and can result in a use-after-free situation where the
stale lwb pointer stored in the `zil_commit_waiter_t` structure of the
thread waiting on the waiter's CV is used.

A similar situation can occur if an lwb is issued to disk, and thus in
the `LWB_STATE_ISSUED` state, and `zil_free_lwb` is called while the
disk is servicing that lwb. In this situation, the lwb will be freed by
`zil_free_lwb`, which will result in a use-after-free situation when the
lwb's zio completes, and `zil_lwb_flush_vdevs_done` is called.

This race condition is prevented in `zil_close` by calling `zil_commit`
before `zil_free_lwb` is called, which will ensure all outstanding (i.e.
all lwb's in the `LWB_STATE_OPEN` and/or `LWB_STATE_ISSUED` states)
reach the `LWB_STATE_DONE` state before the lwb's are freed
(`zil_commit` will not return untill all the lwb's are
`LWB_STATE_DONE`).

Further, this race condition is prevented in `zil_sync` by only calling
`zil_free_lwb` for lwb's that do not have their `lwb_buf` pointer set.
All lwb's not in the `LWB_STATE_DONE` state will have a non-null value
for this pointer; the pointer is only cleared in
`zil_lwb_flush_vdevs_done`, at which point the lwb's state will be
changed to `LWB_STATE_DONE`.

This race *is* present in `zil_suspend`, leading to this bug.

At first glance, it would appear as though this would not be true
because `zil_suspend` will call `zil_commit`, just like `zil_close`, but
the problem is that `zil_suspend` will set the zilog's `zl_suspend`
field prior to calling `zil_commit`. Further, in `zil_commit`, if
`zl_suspend` is set, `zil_commit` will take a special branch of logic
and use `txg_wait_synced` instead of performing the normal `zil_commit`
logic.

This call to `txg_wait_synced` might be good enough for the data to
reach disk safely before it returns, but it does not ensure that all
outstanding lwb's reach the `LWB_STATE_DONE` state before it returns.
This is because, if there's an lwb "stuck" in
`zil_commit_waiter_timeout`, waiting for it's lwb to timeout, it will
maintain a non-null value for it's `lwb_buf` field and thus `zil_sync`
will not free that lwb. Thus, even though the lwb's data is already on
disk, the lwb will be left lingering, waiting on the CV, and will
eventually timeout and be issued to disk even though the write is
unnecessary.

So, after `zil_commit` is called from `zil_suspend`, we incorrectly
assume that there are not outstanding lwb's, and proceed to free all
lwb's found on the zilog's lwb list. As a result, we free the lwb that
will later be used `zil_commit_waiter_timeout`.

SOLUTION
========

The solution to this, is to ensure all outstanding lwb's complete before
calling `zil_free_lwb` via `zil_destroy` in `zil_suspend`. This patch
accomplishes this goal by forcing the normal `zil_commit` logic when
called from `zil_sync`.

Now, `zil_suspend` will call `zil_commit_impl` which will always use the
normal logic of waiting/issuing lwb's to disk before it returns. As a
result, any lwb's outstanding when `zil_commit_impl` is called will be
guaranteed to reach the `LWB_STATE_DONE` state by the time it returns.

Further, no new lwb's will be created via `zil_commit` since the zilog's
`zl_suspend` flag will be set. This will force all new callers of
`zil_commit` to use `txg_wait_synced` instead of creating and issuing
new lwb's.

Thus, all lwb's left on the zilog's lwb list when `zil_destroy` is
called will be in the `LWB_STATE_DONE` state, and we'll avoid this race
condition.

d4a72f2386 Sequential scrub and resilvers
Currently, scrubs and resilvers can take an extremely
long time to complete. This is largely due to the fact
that zfs scans process pools in logical order, as
determined by each block's bookmark. This makes sense
from a simplicity perspective, but blocks in zfs are
often scattered randomly across disks, particularly
due to zfs's copy-on-write mechanisms.

This patch improves performance by splitting scrubs
and resilvers into a metadata scanning phase and an IO
issuing phase. The metadata scan reads through the
structure of the pool and gathers an in-memory queue
of I/Os, sorted by size and offset on disk. The issuing
phase will then issue the scrub I/Os as sequentially as
possible, greatly improving performance.

This patch also updates and cleans up some of the scan
code which has not been updated in several years.

a032ac4b38 OpenZFS 8558, 8602 - lwp_create() returns EAGAIN
8558 lwp_create() returns EAGAIN on system with more than 80K ZFS filesystems

On a system with more than 80K ZFS filesystems, we've seen cases
where lwp_create() will start to fail by returning EAGAIN. The
problem being, for each of those 80K ZFS filesystems, a taskq will
be created for each dataset as part of the ZIL for each dataset.

Porting Notes:
- The new nomem taskq kstat was dropped.
- Added module options and documentation for new tunings
  zfs_zil_clean_taskq_nthr_pct, zfs_zil_clean_taskq_minalloc,
  zfs_zil_clean_taskq_maxalloc, and zfs_sync_taskq_batch_pct.

8740cf4a2f Add line info and SET_ERROR() to ZFS debug log
Redefine the SET_ERROR macro in terms of __dprintf() so the error
return codes get logged as both tracepoint events (if tracepoints are
enabled) and as ZFS debug log entries.  This also allows us to use
the same definition of SET_ERROR() in kernel and user space.

Define a new debug flag ZFS_DEBUG_SET_ERROR=512 that may be bitwise
or'd into zfs_flags. Setting this flag enables both dprintf() and
SET_ERROR() messages in the debug log. That is, setting
ZFS_DEBUG_SET_ERROR and ZFS_DEBUG_DPRINTF|ZFS_DEBUG_SET_ERROR are
equivalent (this was done for sake of simplicity). Leaving
ZFS_DEBUG_SET_ERROR unset suppresses the SET_ERROR() messages which
helps avoid cluttering up the logs.

To enable SET_ERROR() logging, run:

  echo 1 >   /sys/module/zfs/parameters/zfs_dbgmsg_enable
  echo 512 > /sys/module/zfs/parameters/zfs_flags

Remove the zfs_set_error_class tracepoints event class since
SET_ERROR() now uses __dprintf(). This sacrifices a bit of
granularity when selecting individual tracepoint events to enable but
it makes the code simpler.

Include file, function, and line number information in debug log
entries.  The information is now added to the message buffer in
__dprintf() and as a result the zfs_dprintf_class tracepoints event
class was changed from a 4 parameter interface to a single parameter.

379ca9cf2b Multi-modifier protection (MMP)
Add multihost=on|off pool property to control MMP.  When enabled
a new thread writes uberblocks to the last slot in each label, at a
set frequency, to indicate to other hosts the pool is actively imported.
These uberblocks are the last synced uberblock with an updated
timestamp.  Property defaults to off.

During tryimport, find the "best" uberblock (newest txg and timestamp)
repeatedly, checking for change in the found uberblock.  Include the
results of the activity test in the config returned by tryimport.
These results are reported to user in "zpool import".

Allow the user to control the period between MMP writes, and the
duration of the activity test on import, via a new module parameter
zfs_multihost_interval.  The period is specified in milliseconds.  The
activity test duration is calculated from this value, and from the
mmp_delay in the "best" uberblock found initially.

Add a kstat interface to export statistics about Multiple Modifier
Protection (MMP) updates. Include the last synced txg number, the
timestamp, the delay since the last MMP update, the VDEV GUID, the VDEV
label that received the last MMP update, and the VDEV path.  Abbreviated

Add a new tunable zfs_multihost_history to specify the number of MMP
updates to store history for. By default it is set to zero meaning that
no MMP statistics are stored.

When using ztest to generate activity, for automated tests of the MMP
function, some test functions interfere with the test.  For example, the
pool is exported to run zdb and then imported again.  Add a new ztest
function, "-M", to alter ztest behavior to prevent this.

Add new tests to verify the new functionality.  Tests provided by

   dev  - hide partitions on ZVOL block devices
   none - not exposing volumes outside ZFS

Additionally the new zvol_volmode module parameter can be used to

This functionality can be used, for instance, on "backup" pools to
avoid cluttering /dev with unneeded zd* devices.

1b7c1e5ce9 OpenZFS 7578 - Fix/improve some aspects of ZIL writing
- After some ZIL changes 6 years ago zil_slog_limit got partially broken
due to zl_itx_list_sz not updated when async itx'es upgraded to sync.
Actually because of other changes about that time zl_itx_list_sz is not
really required to implement the functionality, so this patch removes
some unneeded broken code and variables.

 - Original idea of zil_slog_limit was to reduce chance of SLOG abuse by
single heavy logger, that increased latency for other (more latency critical)
loggers, by pushing heavy log out into the main pool instead of SLOG.  Beside
huge latency increase for heavy writers, this implementation caused double
write of all data, since the log records were explicitly prepared for SLOG.
Since we now have I/O scheduler, I've found it can be much more efficient
to reduce priority of heavy logger SLOG writes from ZIO_PRIORITY_SYNC_WRITE
to ZIO_PRIORITY_ASYNC_WRITE, while still leave them on SLOG.

 - Existing ZIL implementation had problem with space efficiency when it
has to write large chunks of data into log blocks of limited size.  In some
cases efficiency stopped to almost as low as 50%.  In case of ZIL stored on
spinning rust, that also reduced log write speed in half, since head had to
uselessly fly over allocated but not written areas.  This change improves
the situation by offloading problematic operations from z*_log_write() to
zil_lwb_commit(), which knows real situation of log blocks allocation and
can split large requests into pieces much more efficiently.  Also as side
effect it removes one of two data copy operations done by ZIL code WR_COPIED
case.

 - While there, untangle and unify code of z*_log_write() functions.
Also zfs_log_write() alike to zvol_log_write() can now handle writes crossing
block boundary, that may also improve efficiency if ZPL is made to do that.

03b60eee78 Allow scaling of arc in proportion to pagecache
When multiple filesystems are in use, memory pressure causes arc_cache
to collapse to a minimum. Allow arc_cache to maintain proportional size
even when hit rates are disproportionate. We do this only via evictable
size from the kernel shrinker, thus it's only in effect under memory
pressure.

692e55b8fe Reinstate zvol_taskq to fix aio on zvol
Commit 37f9dac removed the zvol_taskq for processing zvol requests.
This was removed as part of switching to make_request_fn and was
motivated by a concern at the time over dispatch latency.

However, this also made all bio request synchronous, and caused
serious performance issues as the bio submitter would wait for
every bio it submitted, effectively making the IO depth 1.

This patch reinstate zvol_taskq, and to make sure overlapped I/Os
are ordered properly, we take range lock in zvol_request, and pass
it along with bio to the I/O functions zvol_{write,discard,read}.

In order to facilitate benchmarks a zvol_request_sync module
option was added to switch between sync and async request handling.
For the moment, the default behavior is synchronous but this is
likely to change pending additional testing.

issue 1 write at a time to the resilvering disk. When it is rotational
media the drive will often travel past the next sector to be written
before receiving a write command from ZFS, significantly delaying the
write of the next sector.

The deadman in ZoL didn't behave quite as it did in upstream
OpenZFS.  In addition to the 2 purposes for which OpenZFS used the
zfs_deadman_synctime_ms parameter, ZoL also used it to determine how
frequently the deadman would fire once it has been triggered.

This patch adds the zfs_deadman_checktime_ms parameter to control how
frequently the subsequent checks are performed.

The deadman is now disabled for suspended pools.

As had been the case, unlike upstream OpenZFS, ZoL will not panic when
a hung IO is detected.

The module parameter documentation has been upated to include the new
parameter and to better describe the operation of the deadmen.

When write I/Os are issued, they are issued in block order but the ZIO
pipeline will drive them asynchronously through the allocation stage
which can result in blocks being allocated out-of-order. It would be
nice to preserve as much of the logical order as possible.

In addition, the allocations are equally scattered across all top-level
VDEVs but not all top-level VDEVs are created equally. The pipeline
should be able to detect devices that are more capable of handling
allocations and should allocate more blocks to those devices. This
allows for dynamic allocation distribution when devices are imbalanced
as fuller devices will tend to be slower than empty devices.

The change includes a new pool-wide allocation queue which would
throttle and order allocations in the ZIO pipeline. The queue would be
ordered by issued time and offset and would provide an initial amount of
allocation of work to each top-level vdev. The allocation logic utilizes
a reservation system to reserve allocations that will be performed by
the allocator. Once an allocation is successfully completed it's
scheduled on a given top-level vdev. Each top-level vdev maintains a
maximum number of allocations that it can handle (mg_alloc_queue_depth).
The pool-wide reserved allocations (top-levels * mg_alloc_queue_depth)
are distributed across the top-level vdevs metaslab groups and round
robin across all eligible metaslab groups to distribute the work. As
top-levels complete their work, they receive additional work from the
pool-wide allocation queue until the allocation queue is emptied.

62a65a654e Add parity generation/rebuild using 128-bits NEON for Aarch64
This re-use the framework established for SSE2, SSSE3 and
AVX2. However, GCC is using FP registers on Aarch64, so
unlike SSE/AVX2 we can't rely on the registers being left alone
between ASM statements. So instead, the NEON code uses
C variables and GCC extended ASM syntax. Note that since
the kernel explicitly disable vector registers, they
have to be locally re-enabled explicitly.

As we use the variable's number to define the symbolic
name, and GCC won't allow duplicate symbolic names,
numbers have to be unique. Even when the code is not
going to be used (e.g. the case for 4 registers when
using the macro with only 2). Only the actually used
variables should be declared, otherwise the build
will fails in debug mode.

This requires the replacement of the XOR(X,X) syntax
by a new ZERO(X) macro, which does the same thing but
without repeating the argument. And perhaps someday
there will be a machine where there is a more efficient
way to zero a register than XOR with itself. This affects
scalar, SSE2, SSSE3 and AVX2 as they need the new macro.

It's possible to write faster implementations (different
scheduling, different unrolling, interleaving NEON and
scalar, ...) for various cores, but this one has the
advantage of fitting in the current state of the code,
and thus is likely easier to review/check/merge.

The only difference between aarch64-neon and aarch64-neonx2
is that aarch64-neonx2 unroll some functions some more.

This review covers the reading and writing of compressed arc headers, sharing
data between the arc_hdr_t and the arc_buf_t, and the implementation of a new
dbuf cache to keep frequently access data uncompressed.

I've added a new member to l1 arc hdr called b_pdata. The b_pdata always hangs
off the arc_buf_hdr_t (if an L1 hdr is in use) and points to the physical block
for that DVA. The physical block may or may not be compressed. If compressed
arc is enabled and the block on-disk is compressed, then the b_pdata will match
the block on-disk and remain compressed in memory. If the block on disk is not
compressed, then neither will the b_pdata. Lastly, if compressed arc is
disabled, then b_pdata will always be an uncompressed version of the on-disk
block.

Typically the arc will cache only the arc_buf_hdr_t and will aggressively evict
any arc_buf_t's that are no longer referenced. This means that the arc will
primarily have compressed blocks as the arc_buf_t's are considered overhead and
are always uncompressed. When a consumer reads a block we first look to see if
the arc_buf_hdr_t is cached. If the hdr is cached then we allocate a new
arc_buf_t and decompress the b_pdata contents into the arc_buf_t's b_data. If
the hdr already has a arc_buf_t, then we will allocate an additional arc_buf_t
and bcopy the uncompressed contents from the first arc_buf_t to the new one.

Writing to the compressed arc requires that we first discard the b_pdata since
the physical block is about to be rewritten. The new data contents will be
passed in via an arc_buf_t (uncompressed) and during the I/O pipeline stages we
will copy the physical block contents to a newly allocated b_pdata.

When an l2arc is inuse it will also take advantage of the b_pdata. Now the
l2arc will always write the contents of b_pdata to the l2arc. This means that
when compressed arc is enabled that the l2arc blocks are identical to those
stored in the main data pool. This provides a significant advantage since we
can leverage the bp's checksum when reading from the l2arc to determine if the
contents are valid. If the compressed arc is disabled, then we must first
transform the read block to look like the physical block in the main data pool
before comparing the checksum and determining it's valid.

25458cbef9 Limit the amount of dnode metadata in the ARC
Metadata-intensive workloads can cause the ARC to become permanently
filled with dnode_t objects as they're pinned by the VFS layer.
Subsequent data-intensive workloads may only benefit from about
25% of the potential ARC (arc_c_max - arc_meta_limit).

In order to help track metadata usage more precisely, the other_size
metadata arcstat has replaced with dbuf_size, dnode_size and bonus_size.

The new zfs_arc_dnode_limit tunable, which defaults to 10% of
zfs_arc_meta_limit, defines the minimum number of bytes which is desirable
to be consumed by dnodes.  Attempts to evict non-metadata will trigger
async prune tasks if the space used by dnodes exceeds this limit.

The new zfs_arc_dnode_reduce_percent tunable specifies the amount by
which the excess dnode space is attempted to be pruned as a percentage of
the amount by which zfs_arc_dnode_limit is being exceeded.  By default,
it tries to unpin 10% of the dnodes.

The problem of dnode metadata pinning was observed with the following
testing procedure (in this example, zfs_arc_max is set to 4GiB):

    - Create a large number of small files until arc_meta_used exceeds
      arc_meta_limit (3GiB with default tuning) and arc_prune
      starts increasing.

    - Create a 3GiB file with dd.  Observe arc_mata_used.  It will still
      be around 3GiB.

    - Repeatedly read the 3GiB file and observe arc_meta_limit as before.
      It will continue to stay around 3GiB.

With this modification, space for the 3GiB file is gradually made
available as subsequent demands on the ARC are made.  The previous behavior
can be restored by setting zfs_arc_dnode_limit to the same value as the
zfs_arc_meta_limit.

c9187d867f Fixes and enhancements of SIMD raidz parity
- Implementation lock replaced with atomic variable

- Trailing whitespace is removed from user specified parameter, to enhance
experience when using commands that add newline, e.g. `echo`

- raidz_test: remove dependency on `getrusage()` and RUSAGE_THREAD, Issue #4813

- silence `cppcheck` in vdev_raidz, partial solution of Issue #1392

- Minor fixes and cleanups

- Enable use of original parity methods in [fastest] configuration.
New opaque original ops structure, representing native methods, is added
to supported raidz methods. Original parity methods are executed if selected
implementation has NULL fn pointer.

35a76a0366 Implementation of SSE optimized Fletcher-4
Builds off of 1eeb4562 (Implementation of AVX2 optimized Fletcher-4)
This commit adds another implementation of the Fletcher-4 algorithm.
It is automatically selected at module load if it benchmarks higher
than all other available implementations.

The module benchmark was also amended to analyze the performance of
the byteswap-ed version of Fletcher-4, as well as the non-byteswaped
version. The average performance of the two is used to select the
the fastest implementation available on the host system.

Adds a pair of fields to an existing zcommon module parameter:
-  zfs_fletcher_4_impl (str)
    "sse2"    - new SSE2 implementation if available
    "ssse3"   - new SSSE3 implementation if available

ae25d22235 Add RAID-Z routines for SSE2 instruction set, in x86_64 mode.
The patch covers low-end and older x86 CPUs.  Parity generation is
equivalent to SSSE3 implementation, but reconstruction is somewhat
slower.  Previous 'sse' implementation is renamed to 'ssse3' to
indicate highest instruction set used.

ab9f4b0b82 SIMD implementation of vdev_raidz generate and reconstruct routines
This is a new implementation of RAIDZ1/2/3 routines using x86_64
scalar, SSE, and AVX2 instruction sets. Included are 3 parity
generation routines (P, PQ, and PQR) and 7 reconstruction routines,
for all RAIDZ level. On module load, a quick benchmark of supported
routines will select the fastest for each operation and they will
be used at runtime. Original implementation is still present and
can be selected via module parameter.

Patch contains:
- specialized gen/rec routines for all RAIDZ levels,
- new scalar raidz implementation (unrolled),
- two x86_64 SIMD implementations (SSE and AVX2 instructions sets),
- fastest routines selected on module load (benchmark).
- cmd/raidz_test - verify and benchmark all implementations
- added raidz_test to the ZFS Test Suite

New zfs module parameters:
- zfs_vdev_raidz_impl (str): selects the implementation to use. On
  module load, the parameter will only accept first 3 options, and
  the other implementations can be set once module is finished
  loading. Possible values for this option are:
    "fastest" - use the fastest math available
    "original" - use the original raidz code
    "scalar" - new scalar impl
    "sse" - new SSE impl if available
    "avx2" - new AVX2 impl if available

See contents of `/sys/module/zfs/parameters/zfs_vdev_raidz_impl` to
get the list of supported values. If an implementation is not supported
on the system, it will not be shown. Currently selected option is
enclosed in `[]`.

    "scalar"  - use the original version
    "avx2"    - new AVX2 implementation if available

Performance comparison (Intel i7 CPU, 1MB data buffers):
- Scalar:  4216 MB/s
- AVX2:   14499 MB/s
