802a4a2ad5 Linux 3.12 compat: shrinker semantics
The new shrinker API as of Linux 3.12 modifies "struct shrinker" by
replacing the @shrink callback with the pair of @count_objects and
@scan_objects.  It also requires the return value of @count_objects to
return the number of objects actually freed whereas the previous @shrink
callback returned the number of remaining freeable objects.

This patch adds support for the new @scan_objects return value semantics
and updates the splat shrinker test case appropriately.

89a461e70c Remove shrink_{i,d}node_cache() wrappers
This is optional functionality which may or may not be useful to
ZFS when using older kernels.  It is never a hard requirement.
Therefore this functionality is being removed from the SPL and
a simpler slimmed down version will be added to ZFS.

8bbbe46f86 Remove global memory variables
Platforms such as Illumos and FreeBSD have historically provided
global variables which summerize the memory state of a system.
Linux on the otherhand doesn't expose any of this information
to kernel modules and uses entirely different mechanisms for
memory management.

In order to simplify the original ZFS port to Linux these global
variables were emulated by the SPL for the benefit of ZFS.  As ZoL
has matured over the years it has moved steadily away from these
interfaces and now no longer depends on them at all.

Therefore, this patch completely removes the global variables
availrmem, minfree, desfree, lotsfree, needfree, swapfs_minfree,
and swapfs_reserve.  This greatly simplifies the memory management
code and eliminates a common area of confusion.

e1310afae3 Remove get_vmalloc_info() wrapper
The get_vmalloc_info() function was used to back the vmem_size()
function.  This was always problematic and resulted in brittle
code because the kernel never provided a clean interface for
modules.

However, it turns out that the only caller of this function in
ZFS uses it to determine the total virtual address space size.
This can be determined easily without get_vmalloc_info() so
vmem_size() has been updated to take this approach which allows
us to shed the get_vmalloc_info() dependency.

3a92530563 Update code to use misc_register()/misc_deregister()
When the SPL was originally written it was designed to use the
device_create() and device_destroy() functions.  Unfortunately,
these functions changed considerably over the years making them
difficult to rely on.

As it turns out a better choice would have been to use the
misc_register()/misc_deregister() functions.  This interface
for registering character devices has remained stable, is simple,
and provides everything we need.

Therefore the code has been reworked to use this interface.  The
higher level ZFS code has always depended on these same interfaces
so this is also as a step towards minimizing our kernel dependencies.

a073aeb060 Add KMC_SLAB cache type
For small objects the Linux slab allocator has several advantages
over its counterpart in the SPL.  These include:

1) It is more memory-efficient and packs objects more tightly.
2) It is continually tuned to maximize performance.

Therefore it makes sense to layer the SPLs slab allocator on top
of the Linux slab allocator.  This allows us to leverage the
advantages above while preserving the Illumos semantics we depend
on.  However, there are some things we need to be careful of:

1) The Linux slab allocator was never designed to work well with
   large objects.  Because the SPL slab must still handle this use
   case a cut off limit was added to transition from Linux slab
   backed objects to kmem or vmem backed slabs.

   spl_kmem_cache_slab_limit - Objects less than or equal to this
   size in bytes will be backed by the Linux slab.  By default
   this value is zero which disables the Linux slab functionality.
   Reasonable values for this cut off limit are in the range of
   4096-16386 bytes.

   spl_kmem_cache_kmem_limit - Objects less than or equal to this
   size in bytes will be backed by a kmem slab.  Objects over this
   size will be vmem backed instead.  This value defaults to
   1/8 a page, or 512 bytes on an x86_64 architecture.

2) Be aware that using the Linux slab may inadvertently introduce
   new deadlocks.  Care has been taken previously to ensure that
   all allocations which occur in the write path use GFP_NOIO.
   However, there may be internal allocations performed in the
   Linux slab which do not honor these flags.  If this is the case
   a deadlock may occur.

The path forward is definitely to start relying on the Linux slab.
But for that to happen we need to start building confidence that
there aren't any unexpected surprises lurking for us.  And ideally
need to move completely away from using the SPLs slab for large
memory allocations.  This patch is a first step.

NOTES:
1) The KMC_NOMAGAZINE flag was leveraged to support the Linux slab
   backed caches but it is not supported for kmem/vmem backed caches.

2) Regardless of the spl_kmem_cache_*_limit settings a cache may
   be explicitly set to a given type by passed the KMC_KMEM,
   KMC_VMEM, or KMC_SLAB flags during cache creation.

3) The constructors, destructors, and reclaim callbacks are all
   functional and will be called regardless of the cache type.

4) KMC_SLAB caches will not appear in /proc/spl/kmem/slab due to
   the issues involved in presenting correct object accounting.
   Instead they will appear in /proc/slabinfo under the same names.

5) Several kmem SPLAT tests needed to be fixed because they relied
   incorrectly on internal kmem slab accounting.  With the updated
   test cases all the SPLAT tests pass as expected.

6) An autoconf test was added to ensure that the __GFP_COMP flag
   was correctly added to the default flags used when allocating
   a slab.  This is required to ensure all pages in higher order
   slabs are properly refcounted, see ae16ed9.

7) When using the SLUB allocator there is no need to attempt to
   set the __GFP_COMP flag.  This has been the default behavior
   for the SLUB since Linux 2.6.25.

8) When using the SLUB it may be desirable to set the slub_nomerge
   kernel parameter to prevent caches from being merged.

668d2a0da5 splat kmem:slab_reclaim: Test cleanup
By setting __GFP_NORETRY the kernel memory reclaim logic was allowed to
abort early and dump a falled allocation stack to the console.  Since
this was done in a tight loop to fill memory it could result in a large
number of stacks being dumped to the console.  This in turn slowed down
the test sufficiently so it exceeded the time limit and failed.

To resolve this issue the __GFP_NORETRY flag is being removed.  This is
how it should have been called originally to ensure we're simulating
the behavior of most callers which will use the GFP_KERNEL flag.

In addition, the reclaim granularity of 1000 objects was far to coarse
for this to be a realistic test.  For kmem:slab_reclaim there might
only be a few thousand objects total in the cache.  Therefore, the
SPLAT_KMEM_OBJ_RECLAIM constant for these tests was lowered.  This
will cause the reclaim callback to run more frequently which makes
for a better test case.

The frequency of the cache reaping in kmem:slab_reap was increased
to accommodate the reduced number of objects released during the
reclaim.

These changes only impact the test cases and were done to remove
false positives caused by the test case itself.

0936c3449f Add spl_kmem_cache_expire module option
Cache aging was implemented because it was part of the default Solaris
kmem_cache behavior.  The idea is that per-cpu objects which haven't been
accessed in several seconds should be returned to the cache.  On the other
hand Linux slabs never move objects back to the slabs unless there is
memory pressure on the system.

This behavior is now configurable through the 'spl_kmem_cache_expire'
module option.  The value is a bit mask with the following meaning.

  0x1 - Solaris style cache aging eviction is enabled.
  0x2 - Linux style low memory eviction is enabled.

Both methods may be safely enabled simultaneously, but by default
both are disabled.  It has never been clear if the kmem cache aging
(which has been around from day one) actually does any good.  It has
however been the source of numerous bugs so I wouldn't mind retiring
it entirely.

3238e71763 splat taskq:cancel: Add test case
Add a test case for taskq_cancel_id() to verify it is working
properly.  Just like taskq:delay we start by dispatching 100
tasks.  However this time 1/3 of the tasks use taskq_dispatch()
and will be run immediately, and 2/3 use taskq_dispatch_delay().
The idea is to create a busy taskq with both active, pending,
and delayed tasks.

After all the items have been successfully dispatched the test
begins randomly canceling known task ids.  It will do this for
5 seconds randomly canceling a task id and then sleeping for a
few milliseconds.   The task being canceled may have already run,
still be on the pending list, or may be currently being executed
by a worker thread.  The idea is to ensure we catch any subtle
race conditions.

Once all the non-canceled tasks have completed we cross check
the number of tasks which ran with the number of tasks which
were successfully canceled.  Additionally, we verify that the
taskq_cancel_id() function never blocks longer than needed.
This time is bounded by the longest run time of the task which
was dispatched.

d9acd930b5 taskq delay/cancel functionality
Add the ability to dispatch a delayed task to a taskq.  The desired
behavior is for the task to be queued but not executed by a worker
thread until the expiration time is reached.  To achieve this two
new functions were added.

* taskq_dispatch_delay() -

  This function behaves exactly like taskq_dispatch() however it
takes a third 'expire_time' argument.  The caller should pass the
desired time the task should be executed as an absolute value in
jiffies.  The task is guarenteed not to run before this time, it
may run slightly latter if all the worker threads are busy.

* taskq_cancel_id() -

  Given a task id attempt to cancel the task before it gets executed.
This is primarily useful for canceling delay tasks but can be used for
canceling any previously dispatched task.  There are three possible
return values.

  0      - The task was found and canceled before it was executed.
  ENOENT - The task was not found, either it was already run or an
           invalid task id was supplied by the caller.
  EBUSY  - The task is currently executing any may not be canceled.
           This function will block until the task has been completed.

* taskq_wait_all() -

  The taskq_wait_id() function was renamed taskq_wait_all() to more
clearly reflect its actual behavior.  It is only curreny used by
the splat taskq regression tests.

* taskq_wait_id() -

  Historically, the only difference between this function and
taskq_wait() was that you passed the task id.  In both functions you
would block until ALL lower task ids which executed.  This was
semantically correct but could be very slow particularly if there
were delay tasks submitted.

  To better accomidate the delay tasks this function was reimplemnted.
It will now only block until the passed task id has been completed.

This is actually a fairly low risk change for a few reasons.

* Only new ZFS callers will make use of the new interfaces and
  very little common code was changed to support the new functions.

* The existing taskq_wait() implementation was not changed just
  slightly refactored.

* The newly optimized taskq_wait_id() implementation was never
  used by ZFS we can't accidentally introduce a new bug there.

NOTE: This functionality does not exist in the Illumos taskqs.

9b88fa165f splat taskq:front: Fix race
The taskq:front test has a race condition where task 4 and 8
race to complete, due to an incorrectly calculated set of delay
"factors" (T). If task 4 wins and actually finishes first, the
verification of the order of completion will fail.

The delays calculated to order task completion do not take into
account the terminal line in the table, and so are all off by
a factor of 1. This causes all the tasks in all queues to finish
sooner than expected and the accumulated error is the root cause
of tasks 4 and 8 racing to complete first. Before the change the
"actual" table looks like I commented in #130.

I changed:

* the table in the comment to correctly reflect the test and the
  factor timings needed.
* the individual task delay factors of T so that ONLY 1 task will
  every 2T. (on average)
* 1T was reduced from 100ms to 50ms. This halves the duration of
  the test and makes any remaining raciness more likely to cause
  failures, but it did not cause the test to fail.
* simplified the delay factor logic by using a table look-up
  instead of a switch.
* Added a "task started" message so that with -v it is possible
  to see the order tasks are started.
* Moved the "task completed" message inside the spinlock so that
  with -v the message truly reflects the absolute order of
  completion as guaranteed by the spinlock.

timeout failures in the kmem:slab_overcommit test.  These were
due to the ineffecient way the slab_overcommit reclaim function
was implemented.  And due to the additional cost of potentially
allocating ten of thousands of emergency objects and tracking
them on a single list.

This patch addresses the first concern by enhansing the test
case to trace all of the allocations objects as a linked list.
This allows for a cleaner version of the reclaim function to
simply release SPLAT_KMEM_OBJ_RECLAIM objects.

Since this touches some common code all the tests which share
these data structions were also updated.  After making these
changes slab_overcommit is reliably passing.  However, there
is certainly additional cleanup which could be done here.

15d0411297 Remove Makefile from non-toplevel .gitignore files
When building SPL support into the kernel, ./copy-builtin will copy
non-toplevel .gitignore files. These files list /Makefile, which causes
git-archive to omit ./module/{spl,splat}/Makefile. The absence of these
files result in build failures when SPL is selected. ZFS is unaffected
because it puts Makefile in the toplevel .gitignore, which is not
copied. We fix SPL by emulating that behavior.

c167aadb27 Add script for builtin module building.
This commit introduces a "copy-builtin" script designed to prepare a
kernel source tree for building SPL as a builtin module. The script
makes a full copy of all needed files, thus making the kernel source
tree fully independent of the spl source package.

To achieve that, some compilation flags (-include, -I) have been moved
to module/Makefile. This Makefile is only used when compiling external
modules; when compiling builtin modules, a Kbuild file generated by the
configure-builtin script is used instead. This makes sure Makefiles
inside the kernel source tree does not contain references to the spl
source package.

94aac9c9bc Use MODULE variable in module Makefile like zfs.
In zfs, each module Makefile contains a MODULE variable which contains
the name of the module, and the following declarations reference this
variable.

In spl, there is a MODULES variable which is never used. Rename it to
MODULE and use it like in zfs. This improves consistency between the two
build systems.

e0093fea58 Linux 3.4 compat, __clear_close_on_exec replaces FD_CLR
torvalds/linux@1dce27c5aa introduced
__clear_close_on_exec() as a replacement for FD_CLR. Further commits
appear to have removed FD_CLR from the Linux source tree.  This
causes the following failure:

  error: implicit declaration of function '__FD_CLR'
  [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

To correct this we update the code to use the current
__clear_close_on_exec() interface for readability.  Then we introduce
an autotools check to determine if __clear_close_on_exec() is available.
If it isn't then we define some compatibility logic which used the older
FD_CLR() interface.

a9a7a01cf5 Add SPLAT test to exercise slab direct reclaim
This test is designed to verify that direct reclaim is functioning as
expected.  We allocate a large number of objects thus creating a large
number of slabs.  We then apply memory pressure and expect that the
direct reclaim path can easily recover those slabs.  The registered
reclaim function will free the objects and the slab shrinker will call
it repeatedly until at least a single slab can be freed.

Note it may not be possible to reclaim every last slab via direct reclaim
without a failure because the shrinker_rwsem may be contended.  For this
reason, quickly reclaiming 3/4 of the slabs is considered a success.

This should all be possible within 10 seconds.  For reference, on a
system with 2G of memory this test takes roughly 0.2 seconds to run.
It may take longer on larger memory systems but should still easily
complete in the alloted 10 seconds.

b29012b999 Remove condition variable names
Long ago I added support to the spl for condition variable names
because I thought they might be needed.  It turns out they aren't.
In fact the official Solaris cv_init(9F) man page discourages
their use in the kernel.

  cv_init(9F)
    Parameters
      name - Descriptive string. This is obsolete and should be
             NULL. (Non-NULL strings are legal, but they're a
             waste of kernel memory.)

Therefore, I'm removing them from the spl to reclaim this memory
and adding an ASSERT() to ensure no new consumers are added which
make use of the name.

Add a test designed to generate contention on the taskq spinlock by
using a large number of threads (100) to perform a large number (131072)
of trivial work items from a single queue.  This simulates conditions
that may occur with the zio free taskq when a 1TB file is removed from a
ZFS filesystem, for example.  This test should always pass.  Its purpose
is to provide a benchmark to easily measure the effectiveness of taskq

can potentially cause a deadlock if a taskq_ent_t is dispatched

bf0c60c060 Add linux compatibility tests
While the splat tests were originally designed to stress test
the Solaris primatives.  I am extending them to include some kernel
compatibility tests.  Certain linux APIs have changed frequently.
These tests ensure that added compatibility is working properly
and no unnoticed regression have slipped in.

Test 1 and 2 add basic regression tests for shrink_icache_memory
and shrink_dcache_memory.  These are simply functional tests to
ensure we can call these functions safely.  Checking for correct
behavior is more difficult since other running processes will
influence the behavior.  However, these functions are provided
by the kernel so if we can successfully call them we assume they
are working correctly.

Test 3 checks that shrinker functions are being registered and
called correctly.  As of Linux 3.0 the shrinker API has changed
four different times so I felt the need to add a trivial test
case to ensure each variant works as expected.
