Linux supports mounting over non-empty directories by default.
In Solaris this is not the case and -O option is required for
zfs mount to mount a zfs filesystem over a non-empty directory.
For compatibility, I've added support for -O option to mount
zfs filesystems over non-empty directories if the user wants
to, just like in Solaris.
I've defined MS_OVERLAY to record it in the flags variable if
the -O option is supplied. The flags variable passes through
a few functions and its checked before performing the empty
directory check in zfs_mount function. If -O is given, the
check is not performed.

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.

A preallocated taskq_ent_t's tqent_flags must be checked prior to
servicing the taskq_ent_t. Once a preallocated taskq entry is serviced,
the ownership of the entry is handed back to the caller of
taskq_dispatch, thus the entry's contents can potentially be mangled.
In particular, this is a problem in the case where a preallocated taskq
entry is serviced, and the caller clears it's tqent_flags field. Thus,
when the function returns and task_done is called, it looks as though
the entry is **not** a preallocated task (when in fact it **is** a
preallocated task).
In this situation, task_done will place the preallocated taskq_ent_t
structure onto the taskq_t's free list. This is a **huge** mistake. If
the taskq_ent_t is then freed by the caller of taskq_dispatch, the
taskq_t's free list will hold a pointer to garbage data. Even worse, if
nothing has over written the freed memory before the pointer is
dereferenced, it may still look as though it points to a valid list_head
belonging to a taskq_ent_t structure.
Thus, the task entry's flags are now copied prior to servicing the task.
This copy is then checked to see if it is a preallocated task, and
determine if the entry needs to be passed down to the task_done
function.

The taskq_t's active thread list is sorted based on its
tqt_ent->tqent_id field. The list is kept sorted solely by inserting
new taskq_thread_t's in their correct sorted location; no other
means is used. This means that once inserted, if a taskq_thread_t's
tqt_ent->tqent_id field changes, the list runs the risk of no
longer being sorted.
Prior to the introduction of the taskq_dispatch_prealloc() interface,
this was not a problem as a taskq_ent_t actively being serviced under
the old interface should always have a static tqent_id field. Thus,
once the taskq_thread_t is added to the taskq_t's active thread list,
the taskq_thread_t's tqt_ent->tqent_id field would remain constant.
Now, this is no longer the case. Currently, if using the
taskq_dispatch_prealloc() interface, any given taskq_ent_t actively
being serviced _may_ have its tqent_id value incremented. This happens
when the preallocated taskq_ent_t structure is recursively dispatched.
Thus, a taskq_thread_t could potentially have its tqt_ent->tqent_id
field silently modified from under its feet. If this were to happen
to a taskq_thread_t on a taskq_t's active thread list, this would
compromise the integrity of the order of the list (as the list
_may_ no longer be sorted).
To get around this, the taskq_thread_t's taskq_ent_t pointer was
replaced with its own static copy of the tqent_id. So, as a taskq_ent_t
is pulled off of the taskq_t's pending list, a static copy of its
tqent_id is made and this copy is used to sort the active thread
list. Using a static copy is key in ensuring the integrity of the
order of the active thread list. Even if the underlying taskq_ent_t
is recursively dispatched (as has its tqent_id modified), this
static copy stored inside the taskq_thread_t will remain constant.

To lay the ground work for introducing the taskq_dispatch_prealloc()
interface, the tq_work_list and tq_threads fields had to be replaced
with new alternatives in the taskq_t structure.
The tq_threads field was replaced with tq_thread_list. Rather than
storing the pointers to the taskq's kernel threads in an array, they are
now stored as a list. In addition to laying the ground work for the
taskq_dispatch_prealloc() interface, this change could also enable taskq
threads to be dynamically created and destroyed as threads can now be
added and removed to this list relatively easily.
The tq_work_list field was replaced with tq_active_list. Instead of
keeping a list of taskq_ent_t's which are currently being serviced, a
list of taskq_threads currently servicing a taskq_ent_t is kept. This
frees up the taskq_ent_t's tqent_list field when it is being serviced
(i.e. now when a taskq_ent_t is being serviced, it's tqent_list field
will be empty).

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.

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.
Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>
Closes#272
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.

to prevent warnings from appearing. Specifically, the autoconf v2.68
Forward Porting Notes specifies:
It is important to note that you need to ensure that the call to
AC_LANG_SOURCE is quoted and not expanded, otherwise that will
cause the warning to appear nonetheless.
Finally, because of the additional quoting we can drop the extra
quotas used by the ZFS_AC_CONFIG_USER_STACK_GUARD autoconf check.

The splat_taskq_test4_common function was incorrectly referencing
the splat_taskq-test13_func symbol, when it meant to be using the
splat_taskq_test4_func symbol.

While setting/getting userquota and groupquota properties, the input
was not treated as a possible username or groupname if it had a
leading digit. While useradd in linux recommends the regexp
[a-z_][a-z0-9_-]*[$]? , it is not enforced. This causes problem for
usernames with leading digits in them. We need to be able to support
getting and setting properties for this unconventional but possible
input category
I've updated the code to validate the username or groupname directly
via the API. Also, note that I moved this validation to the beginning
before the check for SID names with @. This also supports usernames
with @ character in them which are valid. Only when input with @ is
not a valid username, it is interpreted as a potential SID name.

While we initially allowed you to set your ashift as large as 17
(SPA_MAXBLOCKSIZE) that is actually unsafe. What wasn't considered
at the time is that each uberblock written to the vdev label ring
buffer will be of this size. Now the buffer is statically sized
to 128k and we need to be able to fit several uberblocks in it.
With a large ashift that becomes a problem.
Therefore I'm reducing the maximum configurable ashift value to 12.
This is large enough for the 4k sector drives and small enough that
we can still keep the most recent 32 uberblock in the vdev label
ring buffer.

This is a bit of cleanup I'd been meaning to get to for a while
to reduce the chance of a type conflict. Well that conflict
finally occurred with the kstat_init() function which conflicts
with a function in the 2.6.32-6-pve kernel.

The depmod utility from module-init-tools 3.12-pre3 generates a
warning when the -e option is used without -E or -F. This was
observed under OpenSuse 11.4. To resolve the issue when the
exact System.map-* for your kernel cannot be found fallback to
a generic safe '/sbin/depmod -a'.

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.

As of Linux 3.1 the shrink_dcache_memory and shrink_icache_memory
functions have been removed. This same task is now accomplished
more cleanly with per super block shrinkers. This unfortunately
leaves us no easy way to support the dnlc_reduce_cache() function.
This support has always been entirely optional. So when no
reasonable interface is available allow the dnlc_reduce_cache()
function to effectively become a no-op.
The downside of this change is that it will prevent the zfs arc
meta data limts from being enforced. However, the current zfs
implementation in this regard is already flawed and needs to
be reworked. If the arc needs to enfore a meta data limit it
will need to be extended to coordinate directly with the zpl.
This will allow us to drop all this compatibility code and get
more fine grained control over the cache management.

Preferentially use the vfs_fsync() function. This function was
initially introduced in 2.6.29 and took three arguments. As
of 2.6.35 the dentry argument was dropped from the function.
For older kernels fall back to using file_fsync() which also
took three arguments including the dentry.

Prior to Linux 3.1 the kern_path_parent symbol was exported for
use by kernel modules. As of Linux 3.1 it is now longer easily
available. To handle this case the spl will now dynamically
look up address of the missing symbol at module load time.
