Several improvements to the operation of the 'compatibility' property:
1) Improved handling of unrecognized features:
Change the way unrecognized features in compatibility files are handled.
* invalid features in files under /usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d
only get a warning (as these may refer to future features not yet in
the library),
* invalid features in files under /etc/zfs/compatibility.d
get an error (as these are presumed to refer to the current system).
2) Improved error reporting from zpool_load_compat.
Note: slight ABI change to zpool_load_compat for better error reporting.
3) compatibility=legacy inhibits all 'zpool upgrade' operations.
4) Detect when features are enabled outside current compatibility set
* zpool set compatibility=foo <-- print a warning
* zpool set feature@xxx=enabled <-- error
* zpool status <-- indicate this state

The RAIDZ and DRAID code is responsible for reporting checksum errors on
their child vdevs. Checksum errors represent events where a disk
returned data or parity that should have been correct, but was not. In
other words, these are instances of silent data corruption. The
checksum errors show up in the vdev stats (and thus `zpool status`'s
CKSUM column), and in the event log (`zpool events`).
Note, this is in contrast with the more common "noisy" errors where a
disk goes offline, in which case ZFS knows that the disk is bad and
doesn't try to read it, or the device returns an error on the requested
read or write operation.
RAIDZ/DRAID generate checksum errors via three code paths:
1. When RAIDZ/DRAID reconstructs a damaged block, checksum errors are
reported on any children whose data was not used during the
reconstruction. This is handled in `raidz_reconstruct()`. This is the
most common type of RAIDZ/DRAID checksum error.
2. When RAIDZ/DRAID is not able to reconstruct a damaged block, that
means that the data has been lost. The zio fails and an error is
returned to the consumer (e.g. the read(2) system call). This would
happen if, for example, three different disks in a RAIDZ2 group are
silently damaged. Since the damage is silent, it isn't possible to know
which three disks are damaged, so a checksum error is reported against
every child that returned data or parity for this read. (For DRAID,
typically only one "group" of children is involved in each io.) This
case is handled in `vdev_raidz_cksum_finish()`. This is the next most
common type of RAIDZ/DRAID checksum error.
3. If RAIDZ/DRAID is not able to reconstruct a damaged block (like in
case 2), but there happens to be additional copies of this block due to
"ditto blocks" (i.e. multiple DVA's in this blkptr_t), and one of those
copies is good, then RAIDZ/DRAID compares each sector of the data or
parity that it retrieved with the good data from the other DVA, and if
they differ then it reports a checksum error on this child. This
differs from case 2 in that the checksum error is reported on only the
subset of children that actually have bad data or parity. This case
happens very rarely, since normally only metadata has ditto blocks. If
the silent damage is extensive, there will be many instances of case 2,
and the pool will likely be unrecoverable.
The code for handling case 3 is considerably more complicated than the
other cases, for two reasons:
1. It needs to run after the main raidz read logic has completed. The
data RAIDZ read needs to be preserved until after the alternate DVA has
been read, which necessitates refcounts and callbacks managed by the
non-raidz-specific zio layer.
2. It's nontrivial to map the sections of data read by RAIDZ to the
correct data. For example, the correct data does not include the parity
information, so the parity must be recalculated based on the correct
data, and then compared to the parity that was read from the RAIDZ
children.
Due to the complexity of case 3, the rareness of hitting it, and the
minimal benefit it provides above case 2, this commit removes the code
for case 3. These types of errors will now be handled the same as case
2, i.e. the checksum error will be reported against all children that
returned data or parity.

page changes and test cases included.
Brief synopsis:
zpool create -o compatibility=off|legacy|file[,file...] pool vdev...
compatibility = off : disable compatibility mode (enable all features)
compatibility = legacy : request that no features be enabled
compatibility = file[,file...] : read features from specified files.
Only features present in *all* files will be enabled on the
resulting pool. Filenames may be absolute, or relative to
/etc/zfs/compatibility.d or /usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d (/etc
checked first).
Only affects zpool create, zpool upgrade and zpool status.
ABI changes in libzfs:
* New function "zpool_load_compat" to load and parse compat sets.
* Add "zpool_compat_status_t" typedef for compatibility parse status.
* Add ZPOOL_PROP_COMPATIBILITY to the pool properties enum
* Add ZPOOL_STATUS_COMPATIBILITY_ERR to the pool status enum
An initial set of base compatibility sets are included in
cmd/zpool/compatibility.d, and the Makefile for cmd/zpool is

A common usage pattern for zgenhostid, including in the ZFS dracut
module, is running it as:
zgenhostid $(hostid)
However, zgenhostid only accepted hostid arguments greater than 0, which
meant that, when the output of hostid(1) was "00000000", zgenhostid
would error out, even though 0 is a possible return value for the
gethostid(3) function used by hostid(1):
- On current musl libc, gethostid(3) is a stub that always returns 0.
- On glibc, gethostid(3) will return 0 if /etc/hostid exists but is
smaller than 4 bytes.
In these cases, it makes more sense for zgenhostid to treat a value of 0
as other parts of the zfs codebase do, meaning that a hostid value
couldn't be determined; therefore, it should attempt to generate a
random value to write into /etc/hostid.
The manpage and usage output have been updated to reflect this.
Whitespace has also been fixed in the usage output.

This patch adds a new top-level vdev type called dRAID, which stands
for Distributed parity RAID. This pool configuration allows all dRAID
vdevs to participate when rebuilding to a distributed hot spare device.
This can substantially reduce the total time required to restore full
parity to pool with a failed device.
A dRAID pool can be created using the new top-level `draid` type.
Like `raidz`, the desired redundancy is specified after the type:
`draid[1,2,3]`. No additional information is required to create the
pool and reasonable default values will be chosen based on the number
of child vdevs in the dRAID vdev.
zpool create <pool> draid[1,2,3] <vdevs...>
Unlike raidz, additional optional dRAID configuration values can be
provided as part of the draid type as colon separated values. This
allows administrators to fully specify a layout for either performance
or capacity reasons. The supported options include:
zpool create <pool> \
draid[<parity>][:<data>d][:<children>c][:<spares>s] \
<vdevs...>
- draid[parity] - Parity level (default 1)
- draid[:<data>d] - Data devices per group (default 8)
- draid[:<children>c] - Expected number of child vdevs
- draid[:<spares>s] - Distributed hot spares (default 0)

by zloop.sh to test a wide range of dRAID configurations.
-K draid|raidz|random - kind of RAID to test
-D <value> - dRAID data drives per group
-S <value> - dRAID distributed hot spares
-R <value> - RAID parity (raidz or dRAID)

This introduces layering violation, as we need to update

In my opinion it is worth it, as it allow to update FreeBSD in even

system with 'mountpoint' property set to 'legacy'. If root dataset is
named system/rootfs, we can snapshot it (system/rootfs@upgrade), clone

boot back from system/oldrootfs and rename it back to system/rootfs
while it is mounted as /. Before it was not possible, because

Many modern devices use physical allocation units that are much
larger than the minimum logical allocation size accessible by
external commands. Two prevalent examples of this are 512e disk
drives (512b logical sector, 4K physical sector) and flash devices
(512b logical sector, 4K or larger allocation block size, and 128k
or larger erase block size). Operations that modify less than the
physical sector size result in a costly read-modify-write or garbage
collection sequence on these devices.
Simply exporting the true physical sector of the device to ZFS would
yield optimal performance, but has two serious drawbacks:
1. Existing pools created with devices that have different logical
and physical block sizes, but were configured to use the logical
block size (e.g. because the OS version used for pool construction
reported the logical block size instead of the physical block
size) will suddenly find that the vdev allocation size has
increased. This can be easily tolerated for active members of
the array, but ZFS would prevent replacement of a vdev with
another identical device because it now appears that the smaller
allocation size required by the pool is not supported by the new
device.
2. The device's physical block size may be too large to be supported
by ZFS. The optimal allocation size for the vdev may be quite
large. For example, a RAID controller may export a vdev that
requires read-modify-write cycles unless accessed using 64k
aligned/sized requests. ZFS currently has an 8k minimum block
size limit.
Reporting both the logical and physical allocation sizes for vdevs
solves these problems. A device may be used so long as the logical
block size is compatible with the configuration. By comparing the
logical and physical block sizes, new configurations can be optimized
and administrators can be notified of any existing pools that are
sub-optimal.

The recommended practice for `.Os` on FreeBSD is to not specify any
arguments. The correct OS name is used automatically.
Oddly enough, on the Linux distro I tested this on (CentOS 7), the man
pager defaulted to displaying "BSD" as the OS rather than "Linux". To
accommodate this, tack " Linux" back on in an install hook on Linux.
This is much simpler than removing it for FreeBSD when vendored in the
base system.
