While the autoexpand property may seem like a small feature it
depends on a significant amount of system infrastructure. Enough
of that infrastructure is now in place that with a few modifications
for Linux it can be supported.
Auto-expand works as follows; when a block device is modified
(re-sized, closed after being open r/w, etc) a change uevent is
generated for udev. The ZED, which is monitoring udev events,
passes the change event along to zfs_deliver_dle() if the disk
or partition contains a zfs_member as identified by blkid.
From here the device is matched against all imported pool vdevs
using the vdev_guid which was read from the label by blkid. If
a match is found the ZED reopens the pool vdev. This re-opening
is important because it allows the vdev to be briefly closed so
the disk partition table can be re-read. Otherwise, it wouldn't
be possible to report the maximum possible expansion size.
Finally, if the property autoexpand=on a vdev expansion will be
attempted. After performing some sanity checks on the disk to
verify that it is safe to expand, the primary partition (-part1)
will be expanded and the partition table updated. The partition
is then re-opened (again) to detect the updated size which allows
the new capacity to be used.
In order to make all of the above possible the following changes
were required:
* Updated the zpool_expand_001_pos and zpool_expand_003_pos tests.
These tests now create a pool which is layered on a loopback,
scsi_debug, and file vdev. This allows for testing of non-
partitioned block device (loopback), a partition block device
(scsi_debug), and a file which does not receive udev change
events. This provided for better test coverage, and by removing
the layering on ZFS volumes there issues surrounding layering
one pool on another are avoided.
* zpool_find_vdev_by_physpath() updated to accept a vdev guid.
This allows for matching by guid rather than path which is a
more reliable way for the ZED to reference a vdev.
* Fixed zfs_zevent_wait() signal handling which could result
in the ZED spinning when a signal was not handled.
* Removed vdev_disk_rrpart() functionality which can be abandoned
in favor of kernel provided blkdev_reread_part() function.
* Added a rwlock which is held as a writer while a disk is being
reopened. This is important to prevent errors from occurring
for any configuration related IOs which bypass the SCL_ZIO lock.
The zpool_reopen_007_pos.ksh test case was added to verify IO
error are never observed when reopening. This is not expected
to impact IO performance.
Additional fixes which aren't critical but were discovered and
resolved in the course of developing this functionality.
* Added PHYS_PATH="/dev/zvol/dataset" to the vdev configuration for
ZFS volumes. This is as good as a unique physical path, while the
volumes are not used in the test cases anymore for other reasons
this improvement was included.

Problem
=======
When we fail to open or import a storage pool, we typically don't
get any additional diagnostic information, just "no pool found" or
"can not import".
While there may be no additional user-consumable information, we should
at least make this situation easier to debug/diagnose for developers
and support. For example, we could start by using `zfs_dbgmsg()`
to log each thing that we try when importing, and which things
failed. E.g. "tried uberblock of txg X from label Y of device Z". Also,
we could log each of the stages that we go through in `spa_load_impl()`.
Solution
========
Following the cleanup to `spa_load_impl()`, debug messages have been
added to every point of failure in that function. Additionally,
debug messages have been added to strategic places, such as
`vdev_disk_open()`.

OpenZFS 7614 - zfs device evacuation/removal
OpenZFS 9064 - remove_mirror should wait for device removal to complete
This project allows top-level vdevs to be removed from the storage pool
with "zpool remove", reducing the total amount of storage in the pool.
This operation copies all allocated regions of the device to be removed
onto other devices, recording the mapping from old to new location.
After the removal is complete, read and free operations to the removed
(now "indirect") vdev must be remapped and performed at the new location
on disk. The indirect mapping table is kept in memory whenever the pool
is loaded, so there is minimal performance overhead when doing operations
on the indirect vdev.
The size of the in-memory mapping table will be reduced when its entries
become "obsolete" because they are no longer used by any block pointers
in the pool. An entry becomes obsolete when all the blocks that use
it are freed. An entry can also become obsolete when all the snapshots
that reference it are deleted, and the block pointers that reference it
have been "remapped" in all filesystems/zvols (and clones). Whenever an
indirect block is written, all the block pointers in it will be "remapped"
to their new (concrete) locations if possible. This process can be
accelerated by using the "zfs remap" command to proactively rewrite all
indirect blocks that reference indirect (removed) vdevs.
Note that when a device is removed, we do not verify the checksum of
the data that is copied. This makes the process much faster, but if it
were used on redundant vdevs (i.e. mirror or raidz vdevs), it would be
possible to copy the wrong data, when we have the correct data on e.g.
the other side of the mirror.
At the moment, only mirrors and simple top-level vdevs can be removed
and no removal is allowed if any of the top-level vdevs are raidz.
Porting Notes:
* Avoid zero-sized kmem_alloc() in vdev_compact_children().
The device evacuation code adds a dependency that
vdev_compact_children() be able to properly empty the vdev_child
array by setting it to NULL and zeroing vdev_children. Under Linux,
kmem_alloc() and related functions return a sentinel pointer rather
than NULL for zero-sized allocations.
* Remove comment regarding "mpt" driver where zfs_remove_max_segment
is initialized to SPA_MAXBLOCKSIZE.
Change zfs_condense_indirect_commit_entry_delay_ticks to
zfs_condense_indirect_commit_entry_delay_ms for consistency with
most other tunables in which delays are specified in ms.
* ZTS changes:
Use set_tunable rather than mdb
Use zpool sync as appropriate
Use sync_pool instead of sync
Kill jobs during test_removal_with_operation to allow unmount/export
Don't add non-disk names such as "mirror" or "raidz" to $DISKS
Use $TEST_BASE_DIR instead of /tmp
Increase HZ from 100 to 1000 which is more common on Linux
removal_multiple_indirection.ksh
Reduce iterations in order to not time out on the code
coverage builders.
removal_resume_export:
Functionally, the test case is correct but there exists a race
where the kernel thread hasn't been fully started yet and is
not visible. Wait for up to 1 second for the removal thread
to be started before giving up on it. Also, increase the
amount of data copied in order that the removal not finish
before the export has a chance to fail.
* MMP compatibility, the concept of concrete versus non-concrete devices
has slightly changed the semantics of vdev_writeable(). Update
mmp_random_leaf_impl() accordingly.
* Updated dbuf_remap() to handle the org.zfsonlinux:large_dnode pool
feature which is not supported by OpenZFS.
* Added support for new vdev removal tracepoints.
* Test cases removal_with_zdb and removal_condense_export have been
intentionally disabled. When run manually they pass as intended,
but when running in the automated test environment they produce
unreliable results on the latest Fedora release.
They may work better once the upstream pool import refectoring is
merged into ZoL at which point they will be re-enabled.

Issue #4892
Issue #4899
Prior to b39c22b, which was first generally available in the 0.6.5
release as b39c22b, ZoL never actually submitted synchronous read or write
requests to the Linux block layer. This means the vdev_disk_dio_is_sync()
function had always returned false and, therefore, the completion in
dio_request_t.dr_comp was never actually used.
In b39c22b, synchronous ZIO operations were translated to synchronous
BIO requests in vdev_disk_io_start(). The follow-on commits 5592404 and
aa159af fixed several problems introduced by b39c22b. In particular,
5592404 introduced the new flag parameter "wait" to __vdev_disk_physio()
but under ZoL, since vdev_disk_physio() is never actually used, the wait
flag was always zero so the new code had no effect other than to cause
a bug in the use of the dio_request_t.dr_comp which was fixed by aa159af.
The original rationale for introducing synchronous operations in b39c22b
was to hurry certains requests through the BIO layer which would have
otherwise been subject to its unplug timer which would increase the
latency. This behavior of the unplug timer, however, went away during the
transition of the plug/unplug system between kernels 2.6.32 and 2.6.39.
To handle the unplug timer behavior on 2.6.32-2.6.35 kernels the
BIO_RW_UNPLUG flag is used as a hint to suppress the plugging behavior.
For kernels 2.6.36-2.6.38, the REQ_UNPLUG macro will be available and
ise used for the same purpose.

Porting notes:
- Added new IO delay tracepoints, and moved common ZIO tracepoint macros

- Used zio_delay_taskq() in place of OpenZFS's timeout_generic() function.
- Updated zinject man page
- Updated zpool_scrub test files
When ZFS partitions a block device it must wait for udev to create
both a device node and all the device symlinks. This process takes
a variable length of time and depends on factors such how many links
must be created, the complexity of the rules, etc. Complicating
the situation further it is not uncommon for udev to create and
then remove a link multiple times while processing the udev rules.
Given the above, the existing scheme of waiting for an expected
partition to appear by name isn't 100% reliable. At this point
udev may still remove and recreate think link resulting in the
kernel modules being unable to open the device.
In order to address this the zpool_label_disk_wait() function
has been updated to use libudev. Until the registered system
device acknowledges that it in fully initialized the function
will wait. Once fully initialized all device links are checked
and allowed to settle for 50ms. This makes it far more likely
that all the device nodes will exist when the kernel modules
need to open them.
For systems without libudev an alternate zpool_label_disk_wait()
was updated to include a settle time. In addition, the kernel
modules were updated to include retry logic for this ENOENT case.
Due to the improved checks in the utilities it is unlikely this
logic will be invoked. However, if the rare event it is needed
it will prevent a failure.

Issue #3917
Issue #3880
Commit b39c22b set the READ_SYNC and WRITE_SYNC flags for a bio
based on the ZIO_PRIORITY_* flag passed in. This had the unnoticed
side-effect of making the vdev_disk_io_start() synchronous for
certain I/Os.
This in turn resulted in vdev_disk_io_start() being able to
re-dispatch zio's which would result in a RCU stalls when a disk
was removed from the system. Additionally, this could negatively
impact performance and explains the performance regressions reported
in both #3829 and #3780.
This patch resolves the issue by making the blocking behavior
dependent on a 'wait' flag being passed rather than overloading
the passed bio flags.
Finally, the WRITE_SYNC and READ_SYNC behavior is restricted to
non-rotational devices where there is no benefit to queuing to
aggregate the I/O.

it has a top half and a bottom half. This is an unnecessary source of
overhead that does not exist on any other OpenZFS platform does this.
This patch removes it. Early users of this patch reported double digit
performance gains in IOPS on zvols in the range of 50% to 80%.
Comments in the code suggest that the current implementation was done to
obtain IO merging from Linux's IO elevator. However, the DMU already
does write merging while arc_read() should implicitly merge read IOs
because only 1 thread is permitted to fetch the buffer into ARC. In
addition, commercial ZFSOnLinux distributions report that regular files
are more performant than zvols under the current implementation, and the
main consumers of zvols are VMs and iSCSI targets, which have their own
elevators to merge IOs.
Some minor refactoring allows us to register zfs_request() as our
->make_request() handler in place of the generic_make_request()
function. This eliminates the layer of code that broke IO requests on
zvols into a top half and a bottom half. This has several benefits:
1. No per zvol spinlocks.
2. No redundant IO elevator processing.
3. Interrupts are disabled only when actually necessary.
4. No redispatching of IOs when all taskq threads are busy.
5. Linux's page out routines will properly block.
6. Many autotools checks become obsolete.
An unfortunate consequence of eliminating the layer that
generic_make_request() is that we no longer calls the instrumentation
hooks for block IO accounting. Those hooks are GPL-exported, so we
cannot call them ourselves and consequently, we lose the ability to do
IO monitoring via iostat. Since zvols are internally files mapped as
block devices, this should be okay. Anyone who is willing to accept the
performance penalty for the block IO layer's accounting could use the
loop device in between the zvol and its consumer. Alternatively, perf
and ftrace likely could be used. Also, tools like latencytop will still
work. Tools such as latencytop sometimes provide a better view of
performance bottlenecks than the traditional block IO accounting tools
do.
Lastly, if direct reclaim occurs during spacemap loading and swap is on
a zvol, this code will deadlock. That deadlock could already occur with
sync=always on zvols. Given that swap on zvols is not yet production
ready, this is not a blocker.

The LBA weighting makes sense on rotational media where the outer tracks
have twice the bandwidth of the inner tracks. However, it is detrimental
on nonrotational media such as solid state disks, where the only effect
is to ensure that metaslabs enter the best-fit allocation behavior
sooner, which is detrimental to performance. It also makes no sense on
files where the underlying filesystem can arrange things however it

Translate zio requests with ZIO_PRIORITY_SYNC_READ and
ZIO_PRIORITY_SYNC_WRITE into synchronous bio requests by setting
READ_SYNC and WRITE_SYNC flags. Specifically, WRITE_SYNC flag turns

When WRITE_SYNC is not set (WRITE is set instead), the block trace

Here the 130,197 is the partition created on the log device when adding it
to the pool, whereas the base device is 130,96. As one can see, the writes
to the SLOG are not marked synchronous (the S is missing next to W), and
the queue unplugs occur based on the timer (UT event) resulting in slightly
over 2 msec latency of writes. This results in a sub-par performance of
single stream synchronous writes (limited by latency of the SLOG).
When the WRITE_SYNC is set, a similar trace looks as follows:

As one can see, all the writes are synchronous (WS), and I/O completions
(e.g. from issue I to completion C) take 160-250 usec, or about 10x faster.
Since WRITE_SYNC or READ_SYNC flags are among several factors that are
considered when processing bio requests, it seems prudent to mark all the
zio requests of synchronous priority with the READ/WRITE_SYNC flags to make
them eligible for consideration as such by the Linux block I/O layer.

Porting Notes:
* Included in this patch is a tiny ISP2() cleanup in zio_init() from
Illumos 5255.
* Unlike the upstream Illumos commit this patch does not impose an
arbitrary 128K block size limit on volumes. Volumes, like filesystems,
are limited by the zfs_max_recordsize=1M module option.
* By default the maximum record size is limited to 1M by the module
option zfs_max_recordsize. This value may be safely increased up to
16M which is the largest block size supported by the on-disk format.
At the moment, 1M blocks clearly offer a significant performance
improvement but the benefits of going beyond this for the majority
of workloads are less clear.
* The illumos version of this patch increased DMU_MAX_ACCESS to 32M.
This was determined not to be large enough when using 16M blocks
because the zfs_make_xattrdir() function will fail (EFBIG) when
assigning a TX. This was immediately observed under Linux because
all newly created files must have a security xattr created and
that was failing. Therefore, we've set DMU_MAX_ACCESS to 64M.
* On 32-bit platforms a hard limit of 1M is set for blocks due
to the limited virtual address space. We should be able to relax
this one the ABD patches are merged.

By marking DMU transaction processing contexts with PF_FSTRANS
we can revert the KM_PUSHPAGE -> KM_SLEEP changes. This brings
us back in line with upstream. In some cases this means simply
swapping the flags back. For others fnvlist_alloc() was replaced
by nvlist_alloc(..., KM_PUSHPAGE) and must be reverted back to
fnvlist_alloc() which assumes KM_SLEEP.
The one place KM_PUSHPAGE is kept is when allocating ARC buffers
which allows us to dip in to reserved memory. This is again the
same as upstream.

The initial port of ZFS to Linux required a way to identify virtual
memory to make IO to virtual memory backed slabs work, so kmem_virt()
was created. Linux 2.6.25 introduced is_vmalloc_addr(), which is
logically equivalent to kmem_virt(). Support for kernels before 2.6.26
was later dropped and more recently, support for kernels before Linux
2.6.32 has been dropped. We retire kmem_virt() in favor of
is_vmalloc_addr() to cleanup the code.

Issue #2124
Userland tools such as blkid, grub2-probe and zdb will go through the
buffer cache. However, ZFS uses on submit_bio() to bypass the buffer
cache when performing IO operations on vdevs for efficiency purposes.
This permits the on-disk state and buffer cache to fall out of
synchronization. That causes seemingly random failures when tools
reading stale metadata from the buffer cache try to access references to
data that is no longer there.
A particularly bad failure this causes involves grub2-probe, which is
used by grub2-mkconfig. Ordinarily, a rootfs might be called
rpool/ROOT/gentoo. However, when a failure occurs in grub2-probe,
grub2-mkconfig will generate a configuration file containing
/ROOT/gentoo, which omits the pool name and causes a boot failure.
This is avoidable by calling invalidate_bdev() on each flush, which is a
simple way to ensure that all non-dirty pages are wiped. Since userland
tools rarely access vdevs directly, this should be a fancy noop >99.999%
of the time and have little impact on IO. We could have tried a finer
grained approach for the rare instances in which the vdevs are accessed
frequently by userland. However, that would require consideration of
corner cases and it is not worth the effort.
Memory-wise, it would have been better to use a Linux kernel API hook to
disable the buffer cache on such devices, but it provides us no way of
doing that, so we opt for this approach instead. We should revisit that
idea in the future when higher priority issues have been tackled.

NOTES: This patch has been reworked from the original in the
following ways to accomidate Linux ZFS implementation
*) Usage of the cyclic interface was replaced by the delayed taskq
interface. This avoids the need to implement new compatibility
code and allows us to rely on the existing taskq implementation.
*) An extern for zfs_txg_synctime_ms was added to sys/dsl_pool.h
because declaring externs in source files as was done in the
original patch is just plain wrong.
*) Instead of panicing the system when the deadman triggers a
zevent describing the blocked vdev and the first pending I/O
is posted. If the panic behavior is desired Linux provides
other generic methods to panic the system when threads are
observed to hang.
*) For reference, to delay zios by 30 seconds for testing you can
use zinject as follows: 'zinject -d <vdev> -D30 <pool>'

The issue with hot spares in ZoL is because it opens all leaf
vdevs exclusively (O_EXCL). On Linux, exclusive opens cause
subsequent exclusive opens to fail with EBUSY.
This could be resolved by not opening any of the devices
exclusively, which is what Illumos does, but the additional
protection offered by exclusive opens is desirable. It cleanly
prevents you from accidentally adding an in-use non-ZFS device
to your pool.
To fix this we very slightly relaxed the usage of O_EXCL in
the following ways.
1) Functions which open the device but only read had the
O_EXCL flag removed and were updated to use O_RDONLY.
2) A common holder was added to the vdev disk code. This
allow the ZFS code to internally open the device multiple
times but non-ZFS callers may not.
3) An exception was added to make_disks() for hot spare when
creating partition tables. For hot spare devices which
are already opened exclusively we skip creating the partition
table because this must already have been done when the disk
was originally added as a hot spare.
Additional minor changes include fixing check_in_use() to use
a partition instead of a slice suffix. And is_spare() was moved
above make_disks() to avoid adding a forward reference.
