For the moment, the only advantage in registering a umount helper
would be to automatically unshare a zfs filesystem. Since under
Linux this would be unexpected (but nice) behavior there is no
harm in disabling it.
This is desirable because the 'zfs unmount' path invokes the system
umount. This is done to ensure correct mtab locking but has the
side effect that the umount.zfs helper would be called if it exists.
By default this helper calls back in to zfs to do the unmount on
Solaris which we don't want under Linux.
Once libmount is available and we have a safe way to correctly
lock and update the /etc/mtab file we can reconsider the need
for a umount helper. Using libmount is the prefered solution.
While not strictly required to mount a zfs filesystem using a
mount helper has certain advantages.
First, we need it if we want to honor the mount behavior as found
on Solaris. As part of the mount we need to validate that the
dataset has the legacy mount property set if we are using 'mount'
instead of 'zfs mount'.
Secondly, by using a mount helper we can automatically load the
zpl kernel module. This way you can just issue a 'mount' or
'zfs mount' and it will just work.
Finally, it gives us common hook in user space to add any zfs
specific mount options we might want. At the moment we don't
have any but now the infrastructure is at least in place.
These compiler warnings were introduced when code which was
previously #ifdef'ed out by HAVE_ZPL was re-added for use
by the posix layer. All of the following changes should be
obviously correct and will cause no semantic changes.
Support for rolling back datasets require a functional ZPL, which we currently
do not have. The zfs command does not check for ZPL support before attempting
a rollback, and in preparation for rolling back a zvol it removes the minor
node of the device. To prevent the zvol device node from disappearing after a
failed rollback operation, this change wraps the zfs_do_rollback() function in
an #ifdef HAVE_ZPL and returns ENOSYS in the absence of a ZPL. This is
consistent with the behavior of other ZPL dependent commands such as mount.
The orginal error message observed with this bug was rather confusing:
internal error: Unknown error 524
Aborted
This was because zfs_ioc_rollback() returns ENOTSUP if we don't HAVE_ZPL, but
Linux actually has no such error code. It should instead return EOPNOTSUPP, as
that is how ENOTSUP is defined in user space. With that we would have gotten
the somewhat more helpful message
cannot rollback 'tank/fish': unsupported version
This is rather a moot point with the above changes since we will no longer make
that ioctl call without a ZPL. But, this change updates the error code just in
case.

This topic branch contains all the changes needed to integrate the user
side zfs tools with Linux style devices. Primarily this includes fixing
up the Solaris libefi library to be Linux friendly, and integrating with
the libblkid library which is provided by e2fsprogs.

Fix non-c90 compliant code, for the most part these changes
simply deal with where a particular variable is declared.
Under c90 it must alway be done at the very start of a block.
