Closes#15409
ZVOL:
- Mark all ZVOL ZIL transactions as sync. Since ZVOLs have only
one object, it makes no sense to maintain async queue and on each
commit merge it into sync. Single sync queue is just cheaper, while
it changes nothing until actual commit request arrives.
- Remove zsd_sync_cnt and the zil_async_to_sync() calls since we
are no longer switching between sync and async queues.
ZFS:
- Mark write transactions as sync based only on number of sync
opens (z_sync_cnt). We can not randomly jump between sync and
async unless we want data corruptions due to writes reordering.
- When file first opened with O_SYNC (z_sync_cnt incremented to 1)
call zil_async_to_sync() for it to preserve correct ordering between
past and future writes.
- Drop zfs_fsyncer_key logic. Looks like it was an optimization
for workloads heavily intermixing async writes with tons of fsyncs.
But first it was broken 8 years ago due to Linux tsd implementation
not allowing data storage between syscalls, and second, I doubt it
is safe to switch from async to sync so often and without calling
zil_async_to_sync().
- Rename sync argument of *_log_write() into commit, now only
signalling caller's intent to call zil_commit() soon after. It
allows WR_COPIED optimizations without extra other meanings.

Add support for the kernel's block multiqueue (blk-mq) interface in

different CPUs rather than having a single request queue. This can
improve zvol performance with multithreaded reads/writes.
This implementation uses the blk-mq interfaces on 4.13 or newer
kernels. Building against older kernels will fall back to the
older BIO interfaces.
Note that you must set the `zvol_use_blk_mq` module param to
enable the blk-mq API. It is disabled by default.
In addition, this commit lets the zvol blk-mq layer process whole
`struct request` IOs at a time, rather than breaking them down
into their individual BIOs. This reduces dbuf lock contention
and overhead versus the legacy zvol submit_bio() codepath.

Due to a possible lock inversion the zvol open call path on Linux
needs to be able to retry in the case where the spa_namespace_lock
cannot be acquired.
For Linux 5.12 an older kernel this was accomplished by returning
-ERESTARTSYS from zvol_open() to request that blkdev_get() drop
the bdev->bd_mutex lock, reaquire it, then call the open callback
again. However, as of the 5.13 kernel this behavior was removed.
Therefore, for 5.12 and older kernels we preserved the existing
retry logic, but for 5.13 and newer kernels we retry internally in
zvol_open(). This should always succeed except in the case where
a pool's vdev are layed on zvols, in which case it may fail. To
handle this case vdev_disk_open() has been updated to retry when
opening a device when -ERESTARTSYS is returned.

zil_replaying(zil, tx) has the side-effect of informing the ZIL that an
entry has been replayed in the (still open) tx. The ZIL uses that
information to record the replay progress in the ZIL header when that
tx's txg syncs.
ZPL log entries are not idempotent and logically dependent and thus
calling zil_replaying() is necessary for correctness.
For ZVOLs the question of correctness is more nuanced: ZVOL logs only
TX_WRITE and TX_TRUNCATE, both of which are idempotent. Logical
dependencies between two records exist only if the write or discard
request had sync semantics or if the ranges affected by the records
overlap.
Thus, at a first glance, it would be correct to restart replay from
the beginning if we crash before replay completes. But this does not
address the following scenario:
Assume one log record per LWB.
The chain on disk is
HDR -> 1:W(1, "A") -> 2:W(1, "B") -> 3:W(2, "X") -> 4:W(3, "Z")
where N:W(O, C) represents log entry number N which is a TX_WRITE of C
to offset A.
We replay 1, 2 and 3 in one txg, sync that txg, then crash.
Bit flips corrupt 2, 3, and 4.
We come up again and restart replay from the beginning because
we did not call zil_replaying() during replay.
We replay 1 again, then interpret 2's invalid checksum as the end
of the ZIL chain and call replay done.
The replayed zvol content is "AX".
If we had called zil_replaying() the HDR would have pointed to 3
and our resumed replay would not have replayed anything because
3 was corrupted, resulting in zvol content "BX".
If 3 logically depends on 2 then the replay corrupted the ZVOL_OBJ's
contents.
This patch adds the zil_replaying() calls to the replay functions.
Since the callbacks in the replay function need the zilog_t* pointer
so that they can call zil_replaying() we open the ZIL while
replaying in zvol_create_minor(). We also verify that replay has
been done when on-demand-opening the ZIL on the first modifying
bio.

As of the 5.10 kernel the generic splice compatibility code has been
removed. All filesystems are now responsible for registering a
->splice_read and ->splice_write callback to support this operation.
The good news is the VFS provided generic_file_splice_read() and
iter_file_splice_write() callbacks can be used provided the ->iter_read
and ->iter_write callback support pipes. However, this is currently
not the case and only iovecs and bvecs (not pipes) are ever attached
to the uio structure.
This commit changes that by allowing full iov_iter structures to be
attached to uios. Ever since the 4.9 kernel the iov_iter structure
has supported iovecs, kvecs, bvevs, and pipes so it's desirable to
pass the entire thing when possible. In conjunction with this the
uio helper functions (i.e uiomove(), uiocopy(), etc) have been
updated to understand the new UIO_ITER type.
Note that using the kernel provided uio_iter interfaces allowed the
existing Linux specific uio handling code to be simplified. When
there's no longer a need to support kernel's older than 4.9, then
it will be possible to remove the iovec and bvec members from the
uio structure and always use a uio_iter. Until then we need to
maintain all of the existing types for older kernels.
Some additional refactoring and cleanup was included in this change:
- Added checks to configure to detect available iov_iter interfaces.
Some are available all the way back to the 3.10 kernel and are used
when available. In particular, uio_prefaultpages() now always uses
iov_iter_fault_in_readable() which is available for all supported
kernels.
- The unused UIO_USERISPACE type has been removed. It is no longer
needed now that the uio_seg enum is platform specific.
- Moved zfs_uio.c from the zcommon.ko module to the Linux specific
platform code for the zfs.ko module. This gets it out of libzfs
where it was never needed and keeps this Linux specific code out
of the common sources.
- Removed unnecessary O_APPEND handling from zfs_iter_write(), this
is redundant and O_APPEND is already handled in zfs_write();

We can improve the performance of writes to zvols by using
dmu_tx_hold_write_by_dnode() instead of dmu_tx_hold_write(). This
reduces lock contention on the first block of the dnode object, and also
reduces the amount of CPU needed. The benefit will be highest with
multi-threaded async writes (i.e. writes that don't call zil_commit()).

Commit https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/3d745ea5 simplified
the blk_alloc_queue() interface by updating it to take the request
queue as an argument. Add a wrapper function which accepts the new
arguments and internally uses the available interfaces.
Other minor changes include increasing the Linux-Maximum to 5.6 now
that 5.6 has been released. It was not bumped to 5.7 because this
release has not yet been finalized and is still subject to change.
Added local 'struct zvol_state_os *zso' variable to zvol_alloc.

== Summary ==
Prior to this change, sync writes to a zvol are processed serially.
This commit makes zvols process concurrently outstanding sync writes in
parallel, similar to how reads and async writes are already handled.
The result is that the throughput of sync writes is tripled.
== Background ==
When a write comes in for a zvol (e.g. over iscsi), it is processed by
calling `zvol_request()` to initiate the operation. ZFS is expected to
later call `BIO_END_IO()` when the operation completes (possibly from a
different thread). There are a limited number of threads that are
available to call `zvol_request()` - one one per iscsi client (unless
using MC/S). Therefore, to ensure good performance, the latency of
`zvol_request()` is important, so that many i/o operations to the zvol
can be processed concurrently. In other words, if the client has
multiple outstanding requests to the zvol, the zvol should have multiple
outstanding requests to the storage hardware (i.e. issue multiple
concurrent `zio_t`'s).
For reads, and async writes (i.e. writes which can be acknowledged
before the data reaches stable storage), `zvol_request()` achieves low
latency by dispatching the bulk of the work (including waiting for i/o
to disk) to a taskq. The taskq callback (`zvol_read()` or
`zvol_write()`) blocks while waiting for the i/o to disk to complete.
The `zvol_taskq` has 32 threads (by default), so we can have up to 32
concurrent i/os to disk in service of requests to zvols.
However, for sync writes (i.e. writes which must be persisted to stable
storage before they can be acknowledged, by calling `zil_commit()`),
`zvol_request()` does not use `zvol_taskq`. Instead it blocks while
waiting for the ZIL write to disk to complete. This has the effect of
serializing sync writes to each zvol. In other words, each zvol will
only process one sync write at a time, waiting for it to be written to
the ZIL before accepting the next request.
The same issue applies to FLUSH operations, for which `zvol_request()`
calls `zil_commit()` directly.
== Description of change ==
This commit changes `zvol_request()` to use
`taskq_dispatch_ent(zvol_taskq)` for sync writes, and FLUSh operations.
Therefore we can have up to 32 threads (the taskq threads)
simultaneously calling `zil_commit()`, for a theoretical performance
improvement of up to 32x.
To avoid the locking issue described in the comment (which this commit
removes), we acquire the rangelock from the taskq callback (e.g.
`zvol_write()`) rather than from `zvol_request()`. This applies to all
writes (sync and async), reads, and discard operations. This means that
multiple simultaneously-outstanding i/o's which access the same block
can complete in any order. This was previously thought to be incorrect,
but a review of the block device interface requirements revealed that
this is fine - the order is inherently not defined. The shorter hold
time of the rangelock should also have a slight performance improvement.
For an additional slight performance improvement, we use
`taskq_dispatch_ent()` instead of `taskq_dispatch()`, which avoids a
`kmem_alloc()` and eliminates a failure mode. This applies to all
writes (sync and async), reads, and discard operations.
== Performance results ==
We used a zvol as an iscsi target (server) for a Windows initiator
(client), with a single connection (the default - i.e. not MC/S).
We used `diskspd` to generate a workload with 4 threads, doing 1MB
writes to random offsets in the zvol. Without this change we get
231MB/s, and with the change we get 728MB/s, which is 3.15x the original
performance.
We ran a real-world workload, restoring a MSSQL database, and saw
throughput 2.5x the original.
We saw more modest performance wins (typically 1.5x-2x) when using MC/S
with 4 connections, and with different number of client threads (1, 8,
32).
