Fix setting/getting users/groups in quota properties through
numeric identifier. This support was accidentally disabled
in the original port by applying the HAVE_IDMAP wrapper macro
too broadly.
Fix obtained by moving #ifdef HAVE_IDMAP to exclude only
the part of code that really needs IDMAP. Now zfs (get|set)
(user|group)quota@1000 works as expected.

During 'zpool import' all ZPOOL_CONFIG_PATH names are supposed
to be updated by fix_paths(). This was not happening for spare
and cache devices because the proper names were getting filtered
out of the pool_list_t->names. Interestingly, the names were
being filtered because the spare and cache devices do not
contain the pool name in their vdev label.
The fix is to exclude the device path from the list only if:
1) has a valid ZPOOL_CONFIG_POOL_NAME key in the label, and
2) that pool name does not match the specified pool name.
Since the label is valid and because it does properly store the
vdev guid it will be correctly assembled without the pool name.

The 'zpool replace' command would fail when given a short name
because unlike on other platforms the short name cannot be
deterministically expanded to a single path. Multiple path
prefixes must be checked and in addition the partition suffix
for whole disks is determined by the prefix.
To handle this complexity a zfs_strcmp_pathname() function was
added which takes either a short or fully qualified device name.
Short names will be expanded using the prefixes in the default
import search path, or the ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH environment variable
if it's defined. All posible expansions are then compared against
the comparison path. Care is taken to strip redundant slashes to
ensure legitimate matches are not missed.
In the context of this work the existing zfs_resolve_shortname()
function was extended to consider the ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH when set.
The zfs_append_partition() interface was also simplified to take
only a single buffer.
The vast majority of these changes rework existing Linux specific
code which was originally written to accomidate udev. However,
there is some minimal cleanup which removes Illumos specific code.
This was done to improve readability but the basic flow and intent
of the upstream code was maintained.
These changes are the logical conclusion of the previos work to
adjust the 'zpool import' search behavior, see commit 44867b6a.

Currently, thread_create(), when called in userspace, creates a
joinable (i.e. not detached thread). This is the pthread default.
Unfortunately, this does not reproduce kthreads behavior (kthreads
are always detached). In addition, this contradicts the original
Solaris code which creates userspace threads in detached mode.
These joinable threads are never joined, which leads to a leakage of
pthread thread objects ("zombie threads"). This in turn results in
excessive ressource consumption, and possible ressource exhaustion in
extreme cases (e.g. long ztest runs).
This patch fixes the issue by creating userspace threads in detached
mode. The only exception is ztest worker threads which are meant to be
joinable.

The goal of this change is to make 'zpool import' prefer to use
the peristent /dev/mapper or /dev/disk/by-* paths. These are far
preferable to the devices in /dev/ whos names are not persistent
and are determined by the order in which a device is detected.
This patch improves things by changing the default search path from
just to the top level /dev/ directory to (in order):
/dev/disk/by-vdev - Custom rules, use first if they exist
/dev/disk/zpool - Custom rules, use first if they exist
/dev/mapper - Use multipath devices before components
/dev/disk/by-uuid - Single unique entry and persistent
/dev/disk/by-id - May be multiple entries and persistent
/dev/disk/by-path - Encodes physical location and persistent
/dev/disk/by-label - Custom persistent labels
/dev - UNSAFE device names will change
The default search path can be overriden by setting the
ZPOOL_IMPORT_PATH environment variable. This must be a colon
delimited list of paths which are searched for vdevs. If the
'zpool import -d' option is specified only those listed paths
will be searched.
Finally, when multiple paths to the same device are found. If one
of the paths is an exact match for the path used last time to import
the pool it will be used. When there are no exact matches the
prefered path will be determined by the provided search order.
This means you can still import a pool and force specific names by
providing the -d <path> option. And the prefered names will persist
as long as those paths exist on your system.

In 1e33ac1e26, the maximum stack size for
userspace tools was set to 8k to mimic the available kernel stack size.
Unfortunately, due to differences in how the stack is used in userspace
vs kernel space, spurious stack overflows could occur in userspace
tools due to the limited stack size. This is especially true in ztest
when debugging is enabled.
This patch multiplies the userspace stack size by 4, which fixes the
stack overflow issues. This comes at the price of not being able to
catch stack size issues in userspace, but the previous solution proved
unreliable anyway.

Fixes#934.
Commit 858219c makes more sense down below in the 'if (verbose)'
section of the code. Initially, buf and path will never point
to the same location. Once 'path = buf' is set on a raidz vdev,
the code may drop into the verbose section depending on the
verbose flag. In here, using a tmpbuf makes sense since now
'buf == path'.
This issue does not occur in the upstream Solaris code because
their implementations of snprintf() allow for buf and path to
be the same address.

Currently, zvols have a discard granularity set to 0, which suggests to
the upper layer that discard requests of arbirarily small size and
alignment can be made efficiently.
In practice however, ZFS does not handle unaligned discard requests
efficiently: indeed, it is unable to free a part of a block. It will
write zeros to the specified range instead, which is both useless and
inefficient (see dnode_free_range).
With this patch, zvol block devices expose volblocksize as their discard
granularity, so the upper layer is aware that it's not supposed to send
discard requests smaller than volblocksize.

When libzfs checks if the module is loaded or not, it currently reads
/proc/modules and searches for a line matching the module name.
Unfortunately, if the module is included in the kernel itself (built-in
module), then /proc/modules won't list it, so libzfs will wrongly conclude
that the module is not loaded, thus making all ZFS userspace tools unusable.
Fortunately, all loaded modules appear as directories in /sys/module, even
built-in ones. Thus we can use /sys/module in lieu of /proc/modules to fix
the issue.
As a bonus, the code for checking becomes much simpler.

Currently, zpool online -e (dynamic vdev expansion) doesn't work on
whole disks because we're invoking ioctl(BLKRRPART) from userspace
while ZFS still has a partition open on the disk, which results in
EBUSY.
This patch moves the BLKRRPART invocation from the zpool utility to the
module. Specifically, this is done just before opening the device in
vdev_disk_open() which is called inside vdev_reopen(). This requires
jumping through some hoops to get to the disk device from the partition
device, and to make sure we can still open the partition after the
BLKRRPART call.
Note that this new code path is triggered on dynamic vdev expansion
only; other actions, like creating a new pool, are unchanged and still
call BLKRRPART from userspace.
This change also depends on API changes which are available in 2.6.37
and latter kernels. The build system has been updated to detect this,
but there is no compatibility mode for older kernels. This means that
online expansion will NOT be available in older kernels. However, it
will still be possible to expand the vdev offline.

Commit e5dc681a changed EFI_NUMPAR from 9 to 128. This means that the
on-disk EFI label has efi_nparts = 128 instead of 9. The index of the
reserved partition, however, is still 8. This breaks
efi_use_whole_disk(), which uses efi_nparts-1 as the index of the
reserved partition.
This commit fixes efi_use_whole_disk() when the index of the reserved
partition is not efi_nparts-1. It rewrites the algorithm and makes it
more robust by using the order of the partitions instead of their
numbering. It assumes that the last non-empty partition is the reserved
partition, and that the non-empty partition before that is the data
partition.

vdev_id parses the file /etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf to map a physical path
in a storage topology to a channel name. The channel name is combined
with a disk enclosure slot number to create an alias that reflects the
physical location of the drive. This is particularly helpful when it
comes to tasks like replacing failed drives. Slot numbers may also be
re-mapped in case the default numbering is unsatisfactory. The drive
aliases will be created as symbolic links in /dev/disk/by-vdev.
The only currently supported topologies are sas_direct and sas_switch:
o sas_direct - a channel is uniquely identified by a PCI slot and a
HBA port
o sas_switch - a channel is uniquely identified by a SAS switch port
A multipath mode is supported in which dm-mpath devices are handled by
examining the first running component disk, as reported by 'multipath
-l'. In multipath mode the configuration file should contain a
channel definition with the same name for each path to a given
enclosure.
vdev_id can replace the existing zpool_id script on systems where the
storage topology conforms to sas_direct or sas_switch. The script
could be extended to support other topologies as well. The advantage
of vdev_id is that it is driven by a single static input file that can
be shared across multiple nodes having a common storage toplogy.
zpool_id, on the other hand, requires a unique /etc/zfs/zdev.conf per
node and a separate slot-mapping file. However, zpool_id provides the
flexibility of using any device names that show up in
/dev/disk/by-path, so it may still be needed on some systems.
vdev_id's functionality subsumes that of the sas_switch_id script, and
it is unlikely that anyone is using it, so sas_switch_id is removed.
Finally, /dev/disk/by-vdev is added to the list of directories that
'zpool import' will scan.

Add support for the .zfs control directory. This was accomplished
by leveraging as much of the existing ZFS infrastructure as posible
and updating it for Linux as required. The bulk of the core
functionality is now all there with the following limitations.
*) The .zfs/snapshot directory automount support requires a 2.6.37
or newer kernel. The exception is RHEL6.2 which has backported
the d_automount patches.
*) Creating/destroying/renaming snapshots with mkdir/rmdir/mv
in the .zfs/snapshot directory works as expected. However,
this functionality is only available to root until zfs
delegations are finished.
* mkdir - create a snapshot
* rmdir - destroy a snapshot
* mv - rename a snapshot
The following issues are known defeciences, but we expect them to
be addressed by future commits.
*) Add automount support for kernels older the 2.6.37. This should
be possible using follow_link() which is what Linux did before.
*) Accessing the .zfs/snapshot directory via NFS is not yet possible.
The majority of the ground work for this is complete. However,
finishing this work will require resolving some lingering
integration issues with the Linux NFS kernel server.
*) The .zfs/shares directory exists but no futher smb functionality
