1d8da99171 config: allow --with-linux without --with-linux-obj
Don't use `uname -r` to determine kernel build directory when the user
specified kernel source with --with-linux. Otherwise, the user is forced
to use --with-linux-obj even if they are the same directory, which is
very counterintuitive.

bc17f1047a Enable Linux read-ahead for a single page on ZVOLs
Linux has read-ahead logic designed to accelerate sequential workloads.
ZFS has its own read-ahead logic called zprefetch that operates on both
ZVOLs and datasets. Having two prefetchers active at the same time can
cause overprefetching, which unnecessarily reduces IOPS performance on
CoW filesystems like ZFS.

Testing shows that entirely disabling the Linux prefetch results in
a significant performance penalty for reads while commensurate benefits
are seen in random writes. It appears that read-ahead benefits are
inversely proportional to random write benefits, and so a single page
of Linux-layer read-ahead appears to offer the middle ground for both
workloads.

6a9d635998 GZIP compression offloading with QAT accelerator
This patch implement the hardware accelerator method in GZIP compression
in ZFS. When the ZFS pool is enabled GZIP compression, the compression
API will be automatically transferred to the hardware accelerator to
free up CPU resource and speed up the compression time.

* To enable Intel QAT hardware acceleration in ZOL you need to have QAT
  hardware and the driver installed:
  * QAT hardware DH8950:
  http://ark.intel.com/products/79483/Intel-QuickAssist-Adapter-8950
  * QAT driver:
  https://01.org/intel-quickassist-technology
* Start QAT driver in your system:
  service qat_service start
* Enable QAT in ZFS, e.g.:
  ./configure --with-qat=<qat-driver-path>/QAT1.6
  make
* Set GZIP compression in ZFS dataset:
  zfs set compression = gzip <dataset>
* Get QAT hardware statistics by:
  cat /proc/spl/kstat/zfs/qat
* To disable QAT in ZFS:
  insmod zfs.ko zfs_qat_disable=1

a3478c0747 Linux 4.11 compat: iops.getattr and friends
In torvalds/linux@a528d35, there are changes to the getattr family of functions,
struct kstat, and the interface of inode_operations .getattr.

The inode_operations .getattr and simple_getattr() interface changed to:

int (*getattr) (const struct path *, struct dentry *, struct kstat *,
    u32 request_mask, unsigned int query_flags)

The request_mask argument indicates which field(s) the caller intends to use.
Fields the caller has not specified via request_mask may be set in the returned
struct anyway, but their values may be approximate.

The query_flags argument indicates whether the filesystem must update
the attributes from the backing store.

Currently both fields are ignored.  It is possible that getattr-related
functions within zfs could be optimized based on the request_mask.

struct kstat includes new fields:
u32               result_mask;  /* What fields the user got */
u64               attributes;   /* See STATX_ATTR_* flags */
struct timespec   btime;        /* File creation time */

Fields attribute and btime are cleared; the result_mask reflects this.  These
appear to be optional based on simple_getattr() and vfs_getattr() within the
kernel, which take the same approach.

a5e046eaac 4.10 compat - BIO flag changes and others
[bio] The req_op enum was changed to req_opf.  Update the "Linux 4.8 API"
autotools checks to use an int to determine whether the various REQ_OP
values are defined.  This should work properly on kernels >= 4.8.

[bio] bio_set_op_attrs() is now an inline function and can't be detected
with #ifdef.  Add a configure check to determine whether bio_set_op_attrs()
is defined.  Move the local definition of it from vdev_disk.c to
blkdev_compat.h for consistency with other related compability shims.

[bio] The read/write flags and their modifiers, including WRITE_FLUSH,
WRITE_FUA and WRITE_FLUSH_FUA have been removed from fs.h.  Add the new
bio_set_flush() compatibility wrapper to replace VDEV_WRITE_FLUSH_FUA
and set the flags appropriately for each supported kernel version.

[vfs] The generic_readlink() function has been made static.  If .readlink
in inode_operations is NULL, generic_readlink() is used.

[zol typo] Completely unrelated to 4.10 compat, fix a typo in the check
for REQ_OP_SECURE_ERASE so that the proper macro is defined:

    s/HAVE_REQ_OP_SECURE_DISCARD/HAVE_REQ_OP_SECURE_ERASE/

We also add support for linkat(2) to link tmpfile. However, since all previous

e6603b7c1f Fix sync behavior for disk vdevs
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.

fc0c72b167 Support for vectorized algorithms on x86
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()

Use __get_cpuid_max and __cpuid_count from <cpuid.h>
Both gcc and clang have support for these. They also handle ebx register
in case it is used for PIC code.

b58986eebf Use large stacks when available
While stack size will vary by architecture it has historically defaulted to
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-
enterprise distributions which means we no longer need to assume 8K stacks.

This patch takes advantage of that fact by appropriately reverting stack
conservation changes which were made to ensure stability.  Changes which
may have had a negative impact on performance for certain workloads.  This
also has the side effect of bringing the code slightly more in line with
upstream.

5592404784 Fix synchronous behavior in __vdev_disk_physio()
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.

37f9dac592 zvol processing should use struct bio
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.

278bee9319 Linux 3.18 compat: Snapshot auto-mounting
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.

47a4a6fd5f Support parallel build trees (VPATH builds)
Build products from an out of tree build should be written
relative to the build directory.  Sources should be referred
to by their locations in the source directory.

This is accomplished by adding the 'src' and 'obj' variables
for the module Makefile.am, using relative paths to reference
source files, and by setting VPATH when source files are not
co-located with the Makefile.  This enables the following:

  $ mkdir build
  $ cd build
  $ ../configure \
    --with-spl=$HOME/src/git/spl/ \
    --with-spl-obj=$HOME/src/git/spl/build
  $ make -s

This change also has the advantage of resolving the following
warning which is generated by modern versions of automake.

  Makefile.am:00: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled

bd29109f1a Linux 4.2 compat: follow_link() / put_link()
As of Linux 4.2 the kernel has completely retired the nameidata

were the follow_link() and put_link() callbacks.

This patch adds the required checks to configure to detect the
interface change and updates the functions accordingly.  Migrating
to the simple_follow_link() interface was considered but was decided
against ironically due to the increased complexity.

It also should be noted that the kernel follow_link() and put_link()
interfaces changes several times after 4.1 and but before 4.2.  This
means there is a narrow range of kernel commits which never appear
in an official tag of the Linux kernel which ZoL will not build.

218b4e0a76 Add zfs_sb_prune_aliases() function
For kernels which do not implement a per-suberblock shrinker,
those older than Linux 3.1, the shrink_dcache_parent() function
was used to attempt to reclaim dentries.  This was found not be
entirely reliable and could lead to performance issues on older
kernels running meta-data heavy workloads.

To address this issue a zfs_sb_prune_aliases() function has been
added to implement this functionality.  It relies on traversing
the list of znodes for a filesystem and adding them to a private
list with a reference held.  The private list can then be safely
walked outside the z_znodes_lock to prune dentires and drop the
last reference so the inode can be freed.

This provides the same synchronous behavior as the per-filesystem
shrinker and has the advantage of depending on only long standing
interfaces.

0b39b9f96f Swap DTRACE_PROBE* with Linux tracepoints
This patch leverages Linux tracepoints from within the ZFS on Linux
code base. It also refactors the debug code to bring it back in sync
with Illumos.

The information exported via tracepoints can be used for a variety of
reasons (e.g. debugging, tuning, general exploration/understanding,
etc). It is advantageous to use Linux tracepoints as the mechanism to
export this kind of information (as opposed to something else) for a
number of reasons:

    * A number of external tools can make use of our tracepoints
      "automatically" (e.g. perf, systemtap)
    * Tracepoints are designed to be extremely cheap when disabled
    * It's one of the "accepted" ways to export this kind of
      information; many other kernel subsystems use tracepoints too.

Unfortunately, though, there are a few caveats as well:

    * Linux tracepoints appear to only be available to GPL licensed
      modules due to the way certain kernel functions are exported.
      Thus, to actually make use of the tracepoints introduced by this
      patch, one might have to patch and re-compile the kernel;
      exporting the necessary functions to non-GPL modules.

    * Prior to upstream kernel version v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e, Linux
      tracepoints are not available for unsigned kernel modules
      (tracepoints will get disabled due to the module's 'F' taint).
      Thus, one either has to sign the zfs kernel module prior to
      loading it, or use a kernel versioned v3.14-rc6-30-g66cc69e or
      newer.

Assuming the above two requirements are satisfied, lets look at an
example of how this patch can be used and what information it exposes
(all commands run as 'root'):

    # list all zfs tracepoints available

    $ ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/zfs
    enable              filter              zfs_arc__delete
    zfs_arc__evict      zfs_arc__hit        zfs_arc__miss

    zfs_l2arc__miss     zfs_l2arc__read     zfs_l2arc__write
    zfs_new_state__mfu  zfs_new_state__mru

    # enable all zfs tracepoints, clear the tracepoint ring buffer

    $ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/zfs/enable
    $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

    # import zpool called 'tank', inspect tracepoint data (each line was

For the specific tracepoint shown here, 'zfs_arc__miss', data is
exported detailing the arc_buf_hdr_t (hdr), blkptr_t (bp), and
zbookmark_t (zb) that caused the ARC miss (down to the exact DVA!).
This kind of precise and detailed information can be extremely valuable
when trying to answer certain kinds of questions.

For anybody unfamiliar but looking to build on this, I found the XFS
source code along with the following three web links to be extremely
helpful:

    * http://lwn.net/Articles/379903/
    * http://lwn.net/Articles/381064/
    * http://lwn.net/Articles/383362/

I should also node the more "boring" aspects of this patch:

    * The ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE autoconf macro was modified to
       support a sixth paramter. This parameter is used to populate the
       contents of the new conftest.h file. If no sixth parameter is
       provided, conftest.h will be empty.

    * The ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_HEADER autoconf macro was introduced.
      This macro is nearly identical to the ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE macro,
      except it has support for a fifth option that is then passed as
      the sixth parameter to ZFS_LINUX_COMPILE_IFELSE.

These autoconf changes were needed to test the availability of the Linux
tracepoint macros. Due to the odd nature of the Linux tracepoint macro
API, a separate ".h" must be created (the path and filename is used
internally by the kernel's define_trace.h file).

    * The HAVE_DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS autoconf macro was introduced. This
      is to determine if we can safely enable the Linux tracepoint
      functionality. We need to selectively disable the tracepoint code
      due to the kernel exporting certain functions as GPL only. Without
      this check, the build process will fail at link time.

In addition, the SET_ERROR macro was modified into a tracepoint as well.
To do this, the 'sdt.h' file was moved into the 'include/sys' directory
and now contains a userspace portion and a kernel space portion. The
dprintf and zfs_dbgmsg* interfaces are now implemented as tracepoint as
well.

0f62f3f9ab Disable GCCs aggressive loop optimization
GCC >+ 4.8's aggressive loop optimization breaks some of the iterators
over the dn_blkptr[] pseudo-array in dnode_phys. Since dn_blkptr[] is
defined as a single-element array, GCC believes an iterator can only
access index 0 and will unroll the loop into a single iteration.

One way to resolve the issue would be to cast the array to a pointer
and fix all the iterators that might break.  The only loop where it
is known to cause a problem is this loop in dmu_objset_write_ready():

    for (i = 0; i < dnp->dn_nblkptr; i++)
            bp->blk_fill += dnp->dn_blkptr[i].blk_fill;

In the common case where dn_nblkptr is 3, the loop is only executed a
single time and "i" is equal to 1 following the loop.

The specific breakage caused by this problem is that the blk_fill of
root block pointers wouldn't be set properly when more than one blkptr
is in use (when no indrect blocks are needed).

The simple reproducing sequence is:

zpool create tank /tank.img
zdb -ddddd tank 0

Notice that "fill=31", however, there are two L0 indirect blocks with
"F=31" and "F=5". The fill count should be 36 rather than 31. This
problem causes an assert to be hit in a simple "zdb tank" when built
with --enable-debug.

However, this approach was not taken because we need to be absolutely
sure we catch all instances of this unwanted optimization.  Therefore,
the build system has been updated to detect if GCC supports the
aggressive loop optimization.  If it does the optimization will be
explicitly disabled using the -fno-aggressive-loop-optimization option.

023699cd62 Posix ACL Support
This change adds support for Posix ACLs by storing them as an xattr
which is common practice for many Linux file systems.  Since the
Posix ACL is stored as an xattr it will not overwrite any existing
ZFS/NFSv4 ACLs which may have been set.  The Posix ACL will also
be non-functional on other platforms although it may be visible
as an xattr if that platform understands SA based xattrs.

By default Posix ACLs are disabled but they may be enabled with
the new 'aclmode=noacl|posixacl' property.  Set the property to
'posixacl' to enable them.  If ZFS/NFSv4 ACL support is ever added
an appropriate acltype will be added.

This change passes the POSIX Test Suite cleanly with the exception
of xacl/00.t test 45 which is incorrect for Linux (Ext4 fails too).

0f37d0c8be Linux 3.11 compat: fops->iterate()
Commit torvalds/linux@2233f31aad
replaced ->readdir() with ->iterate() in struct file_operations.
All filesystems must now use the new ->iterate method.

To handle this the code was reworked to use the new ->iterate
interface.  Care was taken to keep the majority of changes
confined to the ZPL layer which is already Linux specific.
However, minor changes were required to the common zfs_readdir()
function.

Compatibility with older kernels was accomplished by adding
versions of the trivial dir_emit* helper functions.  Also the
various *_readdir() functions were reworked in to wrappers
which create a dir_context structure to pass to the new
*_iterate() functions.

Unfortunately, the new dir_emit* functions prevent us from
passing a private pointer to the filldir function.  The xattr
directory code leveraged this ability through zfs_readdir()
to generate the list of xattr names.  Since we can no longer
use zfs_readdir() a simplified zpl_xattr_readdir() function
was added to perform the same task.

dba1d70566 Fix arc_adapt() spinning in iterate_supers_type()
The iterate_supers_type() function which was introduced in the
3.0 kernel was supposed to provide a safe way to call an arbitrary
function on all super blocks of a specific type.  Unfortunately,
because a list_head was used a bug was introduced which made it
possible for iterate_supers_type() to get stuck spinning on a
super block which was just deactivated.

This can occur because when the list head is removed from the
fs_supers list it is reinitialized to point to itself.  If the
iterate_supers_type() function happened to be processing the
removed list_head it will get stuck spinning on that list_head.

The bug was fixed in the 3.3 kernel by converting the list_head
to an hlist_node.  However, to resolve the issue for existing
3.0 - 3.2 kernels we detect when a list_head is used.  Then to
prevent the spinning from occurring the .next pointer is set to
the fs_supers list_head which ensures the iterate_supers_type()
function will always terminate.

The approach taken was the rework zfs_holey() as little as
possible and then just wrap the code as needed to ensure
correct locking and error handling.

Tested with xfstests 285 and 286.  All tests pass except for
7-9 of 285 which try to reserve blocks first via fallocate(2)
and fail because fallocate(2) is not yet supported.

Note that the filp->f_lock spinlock did not exist prior to
Linux 2.6.30, but we avoid the need for autotools check by
virtue of the fact that SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE support was not
added until Linux 3.1.

An autoconf check was added for lseek_execute() which is
currently a private function but the expectation is that it
will be exported perhaps as early as Linux 3.11.

The previous code was only waiting for the symver file. But the

the symvers file, but also the header spl_config.h.

If we are waiting in the configure script of ZFS for the SPL
symvers file, then we also need to wait for spl_config.h.
Otherwise the configure script will abort because the spl_config.h
is not yet available.

On top of that, the function ZFS_AC_SPL_MODULE_SYMVERS is moved
to the end of the function ZFS_AC_SPL to allow both checks share
the with-spl-timeout parameter.

9b2af9a097 Configure --with-spl{-obj} auto-detect cleanup
Because the install location for the spl/zfs-devel headers was
changed we need to refresh the auto-detect code.  Note that
for packaging which already explicitly calls --with-spl{-obj}
nothing has changed.

The updated code is now structured like that in ZFS_AC_KERNEL
and should be cleaner and easier to maintain.  In addition,
it's stricter about detecting a valid source and object
directory.  It requires:

* The source directory contains the file 'spl.release'
* The object directory contains the file 'spl_config.h'
* The following paths will be checked.  Notice the /var/lib/
  and /usr/src paths require that the spl and zfs version be
  matched.  This is done to prevent accidentally mixing releases.

d9b0ebbe82 Remove the bio_empty_barrier() check.
To determine whether the kernel is capable of handling empty barrier
BIOs, we check for the presence of the bio_empty_barrier() macro,
which was introduced in 2.6.24. If this macro is defined, then we can
flush disk vdevs; if it isn't, then flushing is disabled.

Unfortunately, the bio_empty_barrier() macro was removed in 2.6.37,
even though the kernel is still capable of handling empty barrier BIOs.

As a result, flushing is effectively disabled on kernels >= 2.6.37,
meaning that starting from this kernel version, zfs doesn't use
barriers to guarantee on-disk data consistency. This is quite bad and
can lead to potential data corruption on power failures.

This patch fixes the issue by removing the configure check for
bio_empty_barrier(), as we don't support kernels <= 2.6.24 anymore.

2b7ab9d4d9 Linux 2.6.26 compat, lookup_bdev()
It's doubtful many people were impacted by this but commit 6c28567
accidentally broke ZFS builds for 2.6.26 and earlier kernels.  This
commit depends on the lookup_bdev() function which exists in 2.6.26
but wasn't exported until 2.6.27.

The availability of the function isn't critical so a wrapper is
introduced which returns ERR_PTR(-ENOTSUP) when the function isn't
defined.  This will have the effect of causing zvol_is_zvol() to
always fail for 2.6.26 kernels.  This in turn means vdevs will
always get opened concurrently which is good for normal usage.
This will only become an issue if your using a zvol as a vdev in
another pool.  In which case you really should be using a newer
kernel anyway.

f1a05fa114 Fix false ENOENT on snapshot control dentries
Lookups in the snapshot control directory for an existing snapshot
fail with ENOENT if an earlier lookup failed before the snapshot was
created.  This is because the earlier lookup causes a negative dentry
to be cached which is never invalidated.

The bug can be reproduced as follows (the second ls should succeed):

 $ ls /tank/.zfs/snapshot/s
 ls: cannot access /tank/.zfs/snapshot/s: No such file or directory
 $ zfs snap tank@s
 $ ls /tank/.zfs/snapshot/s
 ls: cannot access /tank/.zfs/snapshot/s: No such file or directory

To remedy this, always invalidate cached dentries in the snapshot
control directory.  Since these entries never exist on disk there is
no significant performance penalty for the extra lookups.

8780c53961 Update SAs when an inode is dirtied
Revert the portion of commit d3aa3ea which always resulted in the
SAs being update when an mmap()'ed file was closed.  That change
accidentally resulted in unexpected ctime updates which upset tools
like git.  That was always a horrible hack and I'm happy it will
never make it in to a tagged release.

The right fix is something I initially resisted doing because I
was worried about the additional overhead.  However, in hindsight
the overhead isn't as bad as I feared.

This patch implemented the sops->dirty_inode() callback which is
unsurprisingly called when an inode is dirtied.  We leverage this
callback to keep the znode SAs strictly in sync with the inode.

However, for now we're going to go slowly to avoid introducing
any new unexpected issues by only updating the atime, mtime, and
ctime.  This will cover the callpath of most concern to us.

2404b01499 Improve AF hard disk detection
Use the bdev_physical_block_size() interface to determine the
minimize write size which can be issued without incurring a
read-modify-write operation.  This is used to set the ashift
correctly to prevent a performance penalty when using AF hard
disks.

Unfortunately, this interface isn't entirely reliable because
it's not uncommon for disks to misreport this value.  For this
reason you may still need to manually set your ashift with:

  zpool create -o ashift=12 ...

The solution to this in the upstream Illumos source was to add
a white list of known offending drives.  Maintaining such a list
will be a burden, but it still may be worth doing if we can
detect a large number of these drives.  This should be considered

3c20361075 Linux 3.6 compat, sget()
As of Linux commit 9249e17fe094d853d1ef7475dd559a2cc7e23d42 the
mount flags are now passed to sget() so they can be used when
initializing a new superblock.

ZFS never uses sget() in this fashion so we can simply pass a
zero and add a zpl_sget() compatibility wrapper.

6d1d976b2c Modify vdev_elevator_switch() to use elevator_change()
As of Linux 2.6.36 an elevator_change() interface was added.
This commit updates vdev_elevator_switch() to use this interface
when available, otherwise it falls back to the usermodehelper
method.

393b44c711 Implement .commit_metadata hook for NFS export
In order to implement synchronous NFS metadata semantics ZFS
needs to provide the .commit_metadata hook.  All it takes there
is to make sure changes are committed to ZIL.  Fortunately
zfs_fsync() does just that, so simply calling it from
zpl_commit_metadata() does the trick.

cda4db408c Revert "Improve AF hard disk detection"
This reverts commit 395350c85d which
accidentally introduced issue #955.

Pools using AF drives which were originally created with a sector
size of 512 bytes will now be correctly detected to have physical
sector size of 4096.  This is desirable for a new pool, however for
an existing pool abruptly changing the sector size causes problems.

For this reason, this change is being reverted until the additional
logic can be added to detect the existing pool case.  Existing
pools must use the ashift size stored in the label regardless of
what the disk reports.  This is critical for compatibility.

395350c85d Improve AF hard disk detection
Use the bdev_physical_block_size() interface to determine the
minimize write size which can be issued without incurring a
read-modify-write operation.  This is used to set the ashift
correctly to prevent a performance penalty when using AF hard
disks.

Unfortunately, this interface isn't entirely reliable because
it's not uncommon for disks to misreport this value.  For this
reason you may still need to manually set your ashift with:

  zpool create -o ashift=12 ...

The solution to this in the upstream Illumos source was to add
a while list of known offending drives.  Maintaining such a list
will be a burden, but it still may be worth doing if we can
detect a large number of these drives.  This should be considered
as future work.

26e08952e6 Support building a zfs-modules-dkms sub package
This commit adds support for building a zfs-modules-dkms sub package
built around Dynamic Kernel Module Support. This is to allow building
packages using the DKMS infrastructure which is intended to ease the
burden of kernel version changes, upgrades, etc.

By default zfs-modules-dkms-* sub package will be built as part of
the 'make rpm' target.  Alternately, you can build only the DKMS
module package using the 'make rpm-dkms' target.

Examples:

    # To build packaged binaries as well as a dkms packages
    $ ./configure && make rpm

    # To build only the packaged binary utilities and dkms packages
    $ ./configure && make rpm-utils rpm-dkms

Note: Only the RHEL 5/6, CHAOS 5, and Fedora distributions are
      supported for building the dkms sub package.

5085d55817 Add '--with-spl-timeout' option
When checking for the SPL Module.symvers file, a timeout can now be
passed in which will pause the configure step while it waits for this
file to be generated. By default, the configure behavior is unchanged as
a timeout of 0 is used. If a positive number of seconds is passed,
configure will wait that number of seconds for the Module.symvers file
before moving on.

The main motivation for this change was to support parallel execution of
'./configure && make' for the SPL and ZFS packages in preparation of
supporting DKMS based packages.

ee5fd0bb80 Set zvol discard_granularity to the volblocksize.
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.

705741827a When checking for symbol exports, try compiling.
This patch adds a new autoconf function: ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL.
This new function does the following:

 - Call LINUX_TRY_COMPILE with the specified parameters.
 - If unsuccessful, return false.
 - If successful and we're configuring with --enable-linux-builtin,
   return true.
 - Else, call CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT with the specified parameters and
   return the result.

All calls to CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT are converted to
LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL so that the tests work even when configuring
for builtin on a kernel which doesn't have loadable module support, or
hasn't been built yet.
