Strategy of parallel mount is as follows.
1) Initial thread dispatching is to select sets of mount points that
don't have dependencies on other sets, hence threads can/should run
lock-less and shouldn't race with other threads for other sets. Each
thread dispatched corresponds to top level directory which may or may
not have datasets to be mounted on sub directories.
2) Subsequent recursive thread dispatching for each thread from 1)
is to mount datasets for each set of mount points. The mount points
within each set have dependencies (i.e. child directories), so child
directories are processed only after parent directory completes.
The problem is that the initial thread dispatching in
zfs_foreach_mountpoint() can be multi-threaded when it needs to be
single-threaded, and this puts threads under race condition. This race
appeared as mount/unmount issues on ZoL for ZoL having different
timing regarding mount(2) execution due to fork(2)/exec(2) of mount(8).
`zfs unmount -a` which expects proper mount order can't unmount if the
mounts were reordered by the race condition.
There are currently two known patterns of input list `handles` in
`zfs_foreach_mountpoint(..,handles,..)` which cause the race condition.
1) #8833 case where input is `/a /a /a/b` after sorting.
The problem is that libzfs_path_contains() can't correctly handle an
input list with two same top level directories.
There is a race between two POSIX threads A and B,
* ThreadA for "/a" for test1 and "/a/b"
* ThreadB for "/a" for test0/a
and in case of #8833, ThreadA won the race. Two threads were created
because "/a" wasn't considered as `"/a" contains "/a"`.
2) #8450 case where input is `/ /var/data /var/data/test` after sorting.
The problem is that libzfs_path_contains() can't correctly handle an
input list containing "/".
There is a race between two POSIX threads A and B,
* ThreadA for "/" and "/var/data/test"
* ThreadB for "/var/data"
and in case of #8450, ThreadA won the race. Two threads were created
because "/var/data" wasn't considered as `"/" contains "/var/data"`.
In other words, if there is (at least one) "/" in the input list,
the initial thread dispatching must be single-threaded since every
directory is a child of "/", meaning they all directly or indirectly
depend on "/".
In both cases, the first non_descendant_idx() call fails to correctly
determine "path1-contains-path2", and as a result the initial thread
dispatching creates another thread when it needs to be single-threaded.
Fix a conditional in libzfs_path_contains() to consider above two.

When using "zfs destroy" on a dataset that is using "sharenfs=on" and
has been automatically exported (by libzfs), the dataset will not be
automatically unexported as it should be. This workflow appears to have
been broken by this commit: 3fd3e56cfd
In that change, the "zfs_unmount" function was modified to use the
"mnt.mnt_special" field when determining the mount point that is being
unmounted, rather than "mnt.mnt_mountp".
As a result, when "mntpt" is passed into "zfs_unshare_proto", it's value
is now the dataset name rather than the mountpoint. Thus, when this
value is used with the "is_shared" function (via "zfs_unshare_proto") it
will not find a match (since that function assumes it'll be passed the
mountpoint) and incorrectly reports that the dataset is not shared.
This can be easily reproduced with the following commands:
$ sudo zpool create tank xvdb
$ sudo zfs create -o sharenfs=on tank/fish
$ sudo zfs destroy tank/fish
$ sudo zfs list -r tank
NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
tank 97.5K 7.27G 24K /tank
$ sudo exportfs
/tank/fish <world>
$ sudo cat /etc/dfs/sharetab
/tank/fish - nfs rw,crossmnt
At this point, the "tank/fish" filesystem doesn't exist, but it's still
listed as exported when looking at "exportfs" and "/etc/dfs/sharetab".
Also note, this change brings us back in-sync with the illumos code, as
it pertains to this one line; on illumos, "mnt.mnt_mountp" is used.

This change incorporates three major pieces:
The first change is a keystore that manages wrapping
and encryption keys for encrypted datasets. These
commands mostly involve manipulating the new
DSL Crypto Key ZAP Objects that live in the MOS. Each
encrypted dataset has its own DSL Crypto Key that is
protected with a user's key. This level of indirection
allows users to change their keys without re-encrypting
their entire datasets. The change implements the new
subcommands "zfs load-key", "zfs unload-key" and
"zfs change-key" which allow the user to manage their
encryption keys and settings. In addition, several new
flags and properties have been added to allow dataset
creation and to make mounting and unmounting more
convenient.
The second piece of this patch provides the ability to
encrypt, decyrpt, and authenticate protected datasets.
Each object set maintains a Merkel tree of Message
Authentication Codes that protect the lower layers,
similarly to how checksums are maintained. This part
impacts the zio layer, which handles the actual
encryption and generation of MACs, as well as the ARC
and DMU, which need to be able to handle encrypted
buffers and protected data.
The last addition is the ability to do raw, encrypted
sends and receives. The idea here is to send raw
encrypted and compressed data and receive it exactly
as is on a backup system. This means that the dataset
on the receiving system is protected using the same
user key that is in use on the sending side. By doing
so, datasets can be efficiently backed up to an
untrusted system without fear of data being
compromised.

ZFS incorrectly uses directory-based extended attributes even when
xattr=sa is specified as a dataset property or mount option. Support to
honor temporary mount options including "xattr" was added in commit
0282c4137e. There are two issues with the
mount option handling:
* Libzfs has historically included "xattr" in its list of default mount
options. This overrides the dataset property, so the dataset is always
configured to use directory-based xattrs even when the xattr dataset
property is set to off or sa. Address this by removing "xattr" from
the set of default mount options in libzfs.
* There was no way to enable system attribute-based extended attributes
using temporary mount options. Add the mount options "saxattr" and
"dirxattr" which enable the xattr behavior their names suggest. This
approach has the advantages of mirroring the valid xattr dataset
property values and following existing conventions for mount option
names.

The .get_sb callback has been replaced by a .mount callback
in the file_system_type structure. When using the new
interface the caller must now use the mount_nodev() helper.
Unfortunately, the new interface no longer passes the vfsmount
down to the zfs layers. This poses a problem for the existing
implementation because we currently save this pointer in the
super block for latter use. It provides our only entry point
in to the namespace layer for manipulating certain mount options.
This needed to be done originally to allow commands like
'zfs set atime=off tank' to work properly. It also allowed me
to keep more of the original Solaris code unmodified. Under
Solaris there is a 1-to-1 mapping between a mount point and a
file system so this is a fairly natural thing to do. However,
under Linux they many be multiple entries in the namespace
which reference the same filesystem. Thus keeping a back
reference from the filesystem to the namespace is complicated.
Rather than introduce some ugly hack to get the vfsmount and
continue as before. I'm leveraging this API change to update
the ZFS code to do things in a more natural way for Linux.
This has the upside that is resolves the compatibility issue
for the long term and fixes several other minor bugs which
have been reported.
This commit updates the code to remove this vfsmount back
reference entirely. All modifications to filesystem mount
options are now passed in to the kernel via a '-o remount'.
This is the expected Linux mechanism and allows the namespace
to properly handle any options which apply to it before passing
them on to the file system itself.
Aside from fixing the compatibility issue, removing the
vfsmount has had the benefit of simplifying the code. This
change which fairly involved has turned out nicely.

Because we are dependent of the system mount/umount utilities to
ensure correct mtab locking, we should not suppress their error
output. During a successful mount/umount they will be silent,
but during a failure the error message they print is the only sure
way to know why a mount failed. This is because the (u)mount(8)
return code does not contain the result of the system call issued.
The only way to clearly idenify why thing failed is to rely on
the error message printed by the tool.
Longer term once libmount is available we can issue the mount/umount
system calls within the tool and still be ensured correct mtab locking.
Closed#107
Several issues related to strange mount/umount behavior were reported
and this commit should address most of them. The original idea was
to put in place a zfs mount helper (mount.zfs). This helper is used
to enforce 'legacy' mount behavior, and perform any extra mount argument
processing (selinux, zfsutil, etc). This helper wasn't ready for the
0.6.0-rc1 release but with this change it's functional but needs to
extensively tested.
This change addresses the following open issues.
Closes#101Closes#107Closes#113Closes#115Closes#119
Until code is added to support automatically sharing datasets
we should return success instead of failure. This prevents the
command line tools from returning a non-zero error code. While
a user likely won't notice this, test scripts like zconfig.sh
do and correctly fail because of it.
ZFS even under Solaris does not strictly require libshare to be
available. The current implementation attempts to dlopen() the
library to access the needed symbols. If this fails libshare
support is simply disabled.
This means that on Linux we only need the most minimal libshare
implementation. In fact just enough to prevent the build from
failing. Longer term we can decide if we want to implement a
libshare library like Solaris. At best this would be an abstraction
layer between ZFS and NFS/SMB. Alternately, we can drop libshare
entirely and directly integrate ZFS with Linux's NFS/SMB.
Finally the bare bones user-libshare.m4 test was dropped. If we
do decide to implement libshare at some point it will surely be
as part of this package so the check is not needed.
By design the zfs utility is supposed to handle mounting and unmounting
a zfs filesystem. We could allow zfs to do this directly. There are
system calls available to mount/umount a filesystem. And there are
library calls available to manipulate /etc/mtab. But there are a
couple very good reasons not to take this appraoch... for now.
Instead of directly calling the system and library calls to (u)mount
the filesystem we fork and exec a (u)mount process. The principle
reason for this is to delegate the responsibility for locking and
updating /etc/mtab to (u)mount(8). This ensures maximum portability
and ensures the right locking scheme for your version of (u)mount
will be used. If we didn't do this we would have to resort to an
autoconf test to determine what locking mechanism is used.
The downside to using mount(8) instead of mount(2) is that we lose
the exact errno which was returned by the kernel. The return code
from mount(8) provides some insight in to what went wrong but it
not quite as good. For the moment this is translated as a best
guess in to a errno for the higher layers of zfs.
In the long term a shared library called libmount is under development
which provides a common API to address the locking and errno issues.
Once the standard mount utility has been updated to use this library
we can then leverage it. Until then this is the only safe solution.

If libselinux is detected on your system at configure time link
against it. This allows us to use a library call to detect if
selinux is enabled and if it is to pass the mount option:
"context=\"system_u:object_r:file_t:s0"
For now this is required because none of the existing selinux
policies are aware of the zfs filesystem type. Because of this
they do not properly enable xattr based labeling even though
zfs supports all of the required hooks.
Until distro's add zfs as a known xattr friendly fs type we
must use mntpoint labeling. Alternately, end users could modify
their existing selinux policy with a little guidance.
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.
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.

Use constructor attribute on non-Solaris platforms.
The #pragma init/fini ->__attribute__((constructor/destructor))
conversions, these should go upstream.
