This commit modifies the user to kernel space ioctl ABI.  Extra
care should be taken when updating to ensure both the kernel
modules and utilities are updated.  This change has reordered
all of the new ioctl()s to the end of the list.  This should
help minimize this issue in the future.

This commit modifies the user to kernel space ioctl ABI.  Extra
care should be taken when updating to ensure both the kernel
modules and utilities are updated.  If only the user space
component is updated both the 'zpool events' command and the
'zpool reguid' command will not work until the kernel modules
are updated.

82a37189aa Implement SA based xattrs
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.

f5fc4acaa7 Illumos #1092: zfs refratio property
Add a "REFRATIO" property, which is the compression ratio based on
data referenced. For snapshots, this is the same as COMPRESSRATIO,
but for filesystems/volumes, the COMPRESSRATIO is based on the
data "USED" (ie, includes blocks in children, but not blocks
shared with the origin).

This is needed to figure out how much space a filesystem would
use if it were not compressed (ignoring snapshots).

df30f56639 Add "ashift" property to zpool create
Some disks with internal sectors larger than 512 bytes (e.g., 4k) can
suffer from bad write performance when ashift is not configured
correctly.  This is caused by the disk not reporting its actual sector
size, but a sector size of 512 bytes.  The drive may behave this way
for compatibility reasons.  For example, the WDC WD20EARS disks are
known to exhibit this behavior.

When creating a zpool, ZFS takes that wrong sector size and sets the
"ashift" property accordingly (to 9: 1<<9=512), whereas it should be
set to 12 for 4k sectors (1<<12=4096).

This patch allows an adminstrator to manual specify the known correct
ashift size at 'zpool create' time.  This can significantly improve
performance in certain cases.  However, it will have an impact on your
total pool capacity.  See the updated ashift property description
in the zpool.8 man page for additional details.

Valid values for the ashift property range from 9 to 17 (512B-128KB).
Additionally, you may set the ashift to 0 if you wish to auto-detect
the sector size based on what the disk reports, this is the default
behavior.  The most common ashift values are 9 and 12.

  Example:
  zpool create -o ashift=12 tank raidz2 sda sdb sdc sdd

a5729f7b22 Fixes to enable zvol symlink creation
This commit fixes issue on
https://github.com/behlendorf/zfs/issues/#issue/172
Changes:
- update BLKZNAME to use _IOR instead of _IO.  Kernel 2.6.32 allows
read parameters (copy_to_user) with _IO, while newer kernels (tested
Archlinux's 2.6.37 kernel) enforces _IOR (which is correct)
- fix return code and message on error

4c0d8e50b9 Use udev to create /dev/zvol/[dataset_name] links
This commit allows zvols with names longer than 32 characters, which
fixes issue on https://github.com/behlendorf/zfs/issues/#issue/102.

Changes include:
- use /dev/zd* device names for zvol, where * is the device minor
  (include/sys/fs/zfs.h, module/zfs/zvol.c).
- add BLKZNAME ioctl to get dataset name from userland
  (include/sys/fs/zfs.h, module/zfs/zvol.c, cmd/zvol_id).
- add udev rule to create /dev/zvol/[dataset_name] and the legacy
  /dev/[dataset_name] symlink. For partitions on zvol, it will create
  /dev/zvol/[dataset_name]-part* (etc/udev/rules.d/60-zvol.rules,
  cmd/zvol_id).

6283f55ea1 Support custom build directories and move includes
One of the neat tricks an autoconf style project is capable of
is allow configurion/building in a directory other than the
source directory.  The major advantage to this is that you can
build the project various different ways while making changes
in a single source tree.

For example, this project is designed to work on various different
Linux distributions each of which work slightly differently.  This
means that changes need to verified on each of those supported
distributions perferably before the change is committed to the
public git repo.

Using nfs and custom build directories makes this much easier.
I now have a single source tree in nfs mounted on several different
systems each running a supported distribution.  When I make a
change to the source base I suspect may break things I can
concurrently build from the same source on all the systems each
in their own subdirectory.

wget -c http://github.com/downloads/behlendorf/zfs/zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz
tar -xzf zfs-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd zfs-x-y-z

------------------------- run concurrently ----------------------
<ubuntu system>  <fedora system>  <debian system>  <rhel6 system>
mkdir ubuntu     mkdir fedora     mkdir debian     mkdir rhel6
cd ubuntu        cd fedora        cd debian        cd rhel6
../configure     ../configure     ../configure     ../configure
make             make             make             make
make check       make check       make check       make check

This change also moves many of the include headers from individual
incude/sys directories under the modules directory in to a single
top level include directory.  This has the advantage of making
the build rules cleaner and logically it makes a bit more sense.
