Kernel 4.8 paved the way to enabling mounting a file system inside a
non-init user namespace. To facilitate this a s_user_ns member was
added holding the userns in which the filesystem's instance was
mounted. This enables doing the uid/gid translation relative to
this particular username space and not the default init_user_ns.

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.

A port of the Illumos Crypto Framework to a Linux kernel module (found
in module/icp). This is needed to do the actual encryption work. We cannot
use the Linux kernel's built in crypto api because it is only exported to
GPL-licensed modules. Having the ICP also means the crypto code can run on
any of the other kernels under OpenZFS. I ended up porting over most of the
internals of the framework, which means that porting over other API calls (if
we need them) should be fairly easy. Specifically, I have ported over the API
functions related to encryption, digests, macs, and crypto templates. The ICP
is able to use assembly-accelerated encryption on amd64 machines and AES-NI
instructions on Intel chips that support it. There are place-holder
directories for similar assembly optimizations for other architectures
(although they have not been written).

This is initial support for x86 vectorized implementations of ZFS parity
and checksum algorithms.
For the compilation phase, configure step checks if toolchain supports relevant
instruction sets. Each implementation must ensure that the code is not passed
to compiler if relevant instruction set is not supported. For this purpose,
following new defines are provided if instruction set is supported:
- HAVE_SSE,
- HAVE_SSE2,
- HAVE_SSE3,
- HAVE_SSSE3,
- HAVE_SSE4_1,
- HAVE_SSE4_2,
- HAVE_AVX,
- HAVE_AVX2.
For detecting if an instruction set can be used in runtime, following functions
are provided in (include/linux/simd_x86.h):
- zfs_sse_available()
- zfs_sse2_available()
- zfs_sse3_available()
- zfs_ssse3_available()
- zfs_sse4_1_available()
- zfs_sse4_2_available()
- zfs_avx_available()
- zfs_avx2_available()
- zfs_bmi1_available()
- zfs_bmi2_available()
These function should be called once, on module load, or initialization.
They are safe to use from user and kernel space.
If an implementation is using more than single instruction set, both compiler
and runtime support for all relevant instruction sets should be checked.
Kernel fpu methods:
- kfpu_begin()
- kfpu_end()

I noticed during code review of zfsonlinux/zfs#4385 that the author of a
commit had peppered the various Makefile.am files with `$(TIRPC_LIBS)`
when putting it into `lib/libspl/Makefile.am` should have sufficed. Upon
further examination, it seems that he had copied what we do with
`$(ZLIB)`. We also have a bit of that with `-ldl` too. Unfortunately,
what we do is wrong, so lets fix it to set a good example for future
contributors.
In addition, we have multiple `-lz` and `-luuid` passed to the compiler
because each `AC_CHECK_LIB` adds it to `$LIBS`. That is somewhat
annoying to see, so we switch to `AC_SEARCH_LIBS` to avoid it. This is
consistent with the recommendation to use `AC_SEARCH_LIBS` over
`AC_CHECK_LIB` by autotools upstream:
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.66/html_node/Libraries.html
In an ideal world, this would translate into improvements in ELF's
`DT_NEEDED` entries, but that is not the case because of a couple of
bugs in libtool.
The first bug causes libtool to overlink by using static link
dependencies for dynamic linking:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Overlinking_issues_in_packaging#libtool_issues
The workaround for this should be to pass `-Wl,--as-needed` in
`LDFLAGS`. That leads us to the second bug, where libtool passes
`LDFLAGS` after the libraries are specified and `ld` will only honor
`--as-needed` on libraries specified before it:
https://sigquit.wordpress.com/2011/02/16/why-asneeded-doesnt-work-as-expected-for-your-libraries-on-your-autotools-project/
There are a few possible workarounds for the second bug. One is to
either patch the compiler spec file to specify `-Wl,--as-needed` or pass
`-Wl,--as-needed` via `CC` like `CC='gcc -Wl,--as-needed'` so that it is
specified early. Another is to patch ltmain.sh like Gentoo does:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/eclass/ELT-patches/as-needed
Without one of those workarounds, this cleanup provides no benefit in
terms of `DT_NEEDED` entry generation. It should still be an improvement
because it nicely simplifies the code while encouraging good habits when
patching autotools scripts.

Add the ZFS Test Suite and test-runner framework from illumos.
This is a continuation of the work done by Turbo Fredriksson to
port the ZFS Test Suite to Linux. While this work was originally
conceived as a stand alone project integrating it directly with
the ZoL source tree has several advantages:
* Allows the ZFS Test Suite to be packaged in zfs-test package.
* Facilitates easy integration with the CI testing.
* Users can locally run the ZFS Test Suite to validate ZFS.
This testing should ONLY be done on a dedicated test system
because the ZFS Test Suite in its current form is destructive.
* Allows the ZFS Test Suite to be run directly in the ZoL source
tree enabled developers to iterate quickly during development.
* Developers can easily add/modify tests in the framework as
features are added or functionality is changed. The tests
will then always be in sync with the implementation.
Full documentation for how to run the ZFS Test Suite is available
in the tests/README.md file.
Warning: This test suite is designed to be run on a dedicated test
system. It will make modifications to the system including, but
not limited to, the following.
* Adding new users
* Adding new groups
* Modifying the following /proc files:
* /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
* /proc/sys/kernel/core_uses_pid
* Creating directories under /
Notes:
* Not all of the test cases are expected to pass and by default
these test cases are disabled. The failures are primarily due
to assumption made for illumos which are invalid under Linux.
* When updating these test cases it should be done in as generic
a way as possible so the patch can be submitted back upstream.
Most existing library functions have been updated to be Linux
aware, and the following functions and variables have been added.
* Functions:
* is_linux - Used to wrap a Linux specific section.
* block_device_wait - Waits for block devices to be added to /dev/.
* Variables: Linux Illumos
* ZVOL_DEVDIR "/dev/zvol" "/dev/zvol/dsk"
* ZVOL_RDEVDIR "/dev/zvol" "/dev/zvol/rdsk"
* DEV_DSKDIR "/dev" "/dev/dsk"
* DEV_RDSKDIR "/dev" "/dev/rdsk"
* NEWFS_DEFAULT_FS "ext2" "ufs"
* Many of the disabled test cases fail because 'zfs/zpool destroy'
returns EBUSY. This is largely causes by the asynchronous nature
of device handling on Linux and is expected, the impacted test
cases will need to be updated to handle this.
* There are several test cases which have been disabled because
they can trigger a deadlock. A primary example of this is to
recursively create zpools within zpools. These tests have been
disabled until the root issue can be addressed.
* Illumos specific utilities such as (mkfile) should be added to
the tests/zfs-tests/cmd/ directory. Custom programs required by
the test scripts can also be added here.
* SELinux should be either is permissive mode or disabled when
running the tests. The test cases should be updated to conform
to a standard policy.
* Redundant test functionality has been removed (zfault.sh).
* Existing test scripts (zconfig.sh) should be migrated to use
the framework for consistency and ease of testing.
* The DISKS environment variable currently only supports loopback
devices because of how the ZFS Test Suite expects partitions to
be named (p1, p2, etc). Support must be added to generate the
correct partition name based on the device location and name.
* The ZFS Test Suite is part of the illumos code base at:

Historically libblkid support was detected as part of configure
and optionally enabled. This was done because at the time support
for detecting ZFS pool vdevs had just be added to libblkid and
those updated packages were not yet part of many distributions.
This is no longer the case and any reasonably current distribution
will ship a version of libblkid which can detect ZFS pool vdevs.
This patch makes libblkid mandatory at build time and libblkid
the preferred method of scanning for ZFS pools. For distributions
which include a modern version of libblkid there is no change in
behavior. Explicitly scanning the default search paths is still
supported and can be enabled with the '-s' command line option.
Additionally making libblkid mandatory means that the 'zpool create'
command can reliably detect if a specified device has an existing
non-ZFS filesystem (ext4, xfs) and print a warning.

The registered xattr .list handler was simplified in the 4.5 kernel
to only perform a permission check. Given a dentry for the file it
must return a boolean indicating if the name is visible. This
differs slightly from the previous APIs which also required the
function to copy the name in to the provided list and return its
size. That is now all the responsibility of the caller.
This should be straight forward change to make to ZoL since we've
always required the caller to make the copy. However, this was
slightly complicated by the need to support 3 older APIs. Yes,
between 2.6.32 and 4.5 there are 4 versions of this interface!
Therefore, while the functional change in this patch is small it
includes significant cleanup to make the code understandable and
maintainable. These changes include:
- Improved configure checks for .list, .get, and .set interfaces.
- Interfaces checked from newest to oldest.
- Strict checking for each possible known interface.
- Configure fails when no known interface is available.
- HAVE_*_XATTR_LIST renamed HAVE_XATTR_LIST_* for consistency
with similar iops and fops configure checks.
- POSIX_ACL_XATTR_{DEFAULT|ACCESS} were removed forcing callers to
move to their replacements, XATTR_NAME_POSIX_ACL_{DEFAULT|ACCESS}.
Compatibility wrapper were added for old kernels.
- ZPL_XATTR_LIST_WRAPPER added which behaves the same as the existing
ZPL_XATTR_{GET|SET} WRAPPERs. Only the inode is guaranteed to be
a valid pointer, passing NULL for the 'list' and 'name' variables
is allowed and must be checked for. All .list functions were
updated to use the wrapper to aid readability.
- zpl_xattr_filldir() updated to use the .list function for its
permission check which is consistent with the updated Linux 4.5
interface. If a .list function is registered it should return 0
to indicate a name should be skipped, if there is no registered
function the name will be added.
- Additional documentation from xattr(7) describing the correct
behavior for each namespace was added before the relevant handlers.

8K on x86_64 systems. However, as of Linux 3.15 the default thread stack
size was increased to 16K. These kernels are now the default in most non-

This patch takes advantage of that fact by appropriately reverting stack

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.

Internally, zvols are files exposed through the block device API. This
is intended to reduce overhead when things require block devices.
However, the ZoL zvol code emulates a traditional block device in that
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.

This is needed for supporting kernels earlier than 2.6.30. Support for
those kernels was dropped, so we can safely remove this check.

Re-factor the .zfs/snapshot auto-mouting code to take in to account
changes made to the upstream kernels. And to lay the groundwork for
enabling access to .zfs snapshots via NFS clients. This patch makes
the following core improvements.
* All actively auto-mounted snapshots are now tracked in two global
trees which are indexed by snapshot name and objset id respectively.
This allows for fast lookups of any auto-mounted snapshot regardless
without needing access to the parent dataset.
* Snapshot entries are added to the tree in zfsctl_snapshot_mount().
However, they are now removed from the tree in the context of the
unmount process. This eliminates the need complicated error logic
in zfsctl_snapshot_unmount() to handle unmount failures.
* References are now taken on the snapshot entries in the tree to
ensure they always remain valid while a task is outstanding.
* The MNT_SHRINKABLE flag is set on the snapshot vfsmount_t right
after the auto-mount succeeds. This allows to kernel to unmount
idle auto-mounted snapshots if needed removing the need for the
zfsctl_unmount_snapshots() function.
* Snapshots in active use will not be automatically unmounted. As
long as at least one dentry is revalidated every zfs_expire_snapshot/2
seconds the auto-unmount expiration timer will be extended.
* Commit torvalds/linux@bafc9b7 caused snapshots auto-mounted by ZFS
to be immediately unmounted when the dentry was revalidated. This
was a consequence of ZFS invaliding all snapdir dentries to ensure that
negative dentries didn't mask new snapshots. This patch modifies the
behavior such that only negative dentries are invalidated. This solves
the issue and may result in a performance improvement.

Starting from linux-2.6.37, {kmap,kunmap}_atomic takes 1 argument instead of 2.
We use zfs_{kmap,kunmap}_atomic as wrappers and always take 2 argument, but
ignore the 2nd for newer kernel.

This is some minor fixes to commits 2cac7f5f11
and 2a34db1bdb.
* Make sure to alien'ate the new initramfs rpm package as well!
The rpm package is build correctly, but alien isn't run on it to
create the deb.
* Before copying file from COPY_FILE_LIST, make sure the DESTDIR/dir exists.
* Include /lib/udev/vdev_id file in the initrd.
* Because the initrd needs to use '/sbin/modprobe' instead of 'modprobe',
we need to use this in load_module() as well.
* Make sure that load_module() can be used more globaly, instead of
calling '/sbin/modprobe' all over the place.
* Make sure that check_module_loaded() have a parameter - module to
check.
