mount.zfs is called by convention (and util-linux) with arguments
last, i.e.
% mount.zfs <dataset> <mountpoint> -o <options>
This is not a problem on glibc since GNU getopt(3) will reorder the
arguments. However, alternative libc such as musl libc (or glibc with
$POSIXLY_CORRECT set) will not permute argv and fail to parse the -o
<options>. Use getopt_long so musl will permute arguments.

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

When using 'zpool import' to scan for available pools prefer vdev names
which reference vdevs with more valid labels. There should be two labels
at the start of the device and two labels at the end of the device. If
labels are missing then the device has been damaged or is in some other
way incomplete. Preferring names with fully intact labels helps weed out
bad paths and improves the likelihood of being able to import the pool.
This behavior only applies when scanning /dev/ for valid pools. If a

Four new dataset properties have been added to support SELinux. They
are 'context', 'fscontext', 'defcontext' and 'rootcontext' which map
directly to the context options described in mount(8). When one of
these properties is set to something other than 'none'. That string
will be passed verbatim as a mount option for the given context when
the filesystem is mounted.
For example, if you wanted the rootcontext for a filesystem to be set
to 'system_u:object_r:fs_t' you would set the property as follows:
$ zfs set rootcontext="system_u:object_r:fs_t" storage-pool/media
This will ensure the filesystem is automatically mounted with that
rootcontext. It is equivalent to manually specifying the rootcontext
with the -o option like this:
$ zfs mount -o rootcontext=system_u:object_r:fs_t storage-pool/media
By default all four contexts are set to 'none'. Further information
on SELinux contexts is detailed in mount(8) and selinux(8) man pages.

Libraries that depend on other libraries should list them in ELF's
DT_NEEDED field so that programs linking to them do not need to specify
those libraries unless they depend on them as well. This is not the case
in the current code and the consequence is that anything that needs a
library must know its dependencies. This is fragile and caused GRUB2's
configure script to break when a dependency was added on libblkid in
libzfs.
This resolves that problem by using LIBADD/LDADD to specify libraries in
Makefile.am instead of LDFLAGS. This ensures that proper DT_NEEDED
entries are generated and prevents GRUB2's configure script from
breaking in the presence of a libblkid dependency. This also removes
unneeded dependencies from various files.

When calling mount(), care must be taken to avoid passing in flags
that are used only by the user space utilities. Otherwise we may
stomp on flags that are reserved for other purposes in the kernel.
In particular, openSUSE 12.3 kernels have added a new MS_RICHACL
super-block flag whose value conflicts with our MS_COMMENT flag. This
causes incorrect behavior such as the umask being ignored. The
MS_COMMENT flag essentially serves as a placeholder in the option_map
data structure of zfs_mount.c, but its value is never used. Therefore
we can avoid the conflict by defining it to 0.
The MS_USERS, MS_OWNER, and MS_GROUP flags also conflict with reserved
flags in the kernel. While this is not known to have caused any
problems, it is nevertheless incorrect. For the purposes of the
mount.zfs helper, the "users", "owner", and "group" options just serve
as hints to set additional implied options. Therefore we now define
their associated mount flags in terms of the options that they imply
rather than giving them unique values.

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.

DISCARD (REQ_DISCARD, BLKDISCARD) is useful for thin provisioning.
It allows ZVOL clients to discard (unmap, trim) block ranges from
a ZVOL, thus optimizing disk space usage by allowing a ZVOL to
shrink instead of just grow.
We can't use zfs_space() or zfs_freesp() here, since these functions
only work on regular files, not volumes. Fortunately we can use the
low-level function dmu_free_long_range() which does exactly what we
want.
Currently the discard operation is not added to the log. That's not
a big deal since losing discard requests cannot result in data
corruption. It would however result in disk space usage higher than
it should be. Thus adding log support to zvol_discard() is probably
a good idea for a future improvement.

Issue #334
The Linux block device queue subsystem exposes a number of configurable
settings described in Linux block/blk-settings.c. The defaults for these
settings are tuned for hard drives, and are not optimized for ZVOLs. Proper
configuration of these options would allow upper layers (I/O scheduler) to
take better decisions about write merging and ordering.
Detailed rationale:
- max_hw_sectors is set to unlimited (UINT_MAX). zvol_write() is able to
handle writes of any size, so there's no reason to impose a limit. Let the
upper layer decide.
- max_segments and max_segment_size are set to unlimited. zvol_write() will
copy the requests' contents into a dbuf anyway, so the number and size of
the segments are irrelevant. Let the upper layer decide.
- physical_block_size and io_opt are set to the ZVOL's block size. This
has the potential to somewhat alleviate issue #361 for ZVOLs, by warning
the upper layers that writes smaller than the volume's block size will be
slow.
- The NONROT flag is set to indicate this isn't a rotational device.
Although the backing zpool might be composed of rotational devices, the
resulting ZVOL often doesn't exhibit the same behavior due to the COW
mechanisms used by ZFS. Setting this flag will prevent upper layers from
making useless decisions (such as reordering writes) based on incorrect
assumptions about the behavior of the ZVOL.

zvol_write() assumes that the write request must be written to stable storage
if rq_is_sync() is true. Unfortunately, this assumption is incorrect. Indeed,
"sync" does *not* mean what we think it means in the context of the Linux
block layer. This is well explained in linux/fs.h:
WRITE: A normal async write. Device will be plugged.
WRITE_SYNC: Synchronous write. Identical to WRITE, but passes down
the hint that someone will be waiting on this IO
shortly.
WRITE_FLUSH: Like WRITE_SYNC but with preceding cache flush.
WRITE_FUA: Like WRITE_SYNC but data is guaranteed to be on
non-volatile media on completion.
In other words, SYNC does not *mean* that the write must be on stable storage
on completion. It just means that someone is waiting on us to complete the
write request. Thus triggering a ZIL commit for each SYNC write request on a
ZVOL is unnecessary and harmful for performance. To make matters worse, ZVOL
users have no way to express that they actually want data to be written to
stable storage, which means the ZIL is broken for ZVOLs.
The request for stable storage is expressed by the FUA flag, so we must
commit the ZIL after the write if the FUA flag is set. In addition, we must
commit the ZIL before the write if the FLUSH flag is set.
Also, we must inform the block layer that we actually support FLUSH and FUA.

The Linux 3.1 kernel has introduced the concept of per-filesystem
shrinkers which are directly assoicated with a super block. Prior
to this change there was one shared global shrinker.
The zfs code relied on being able to call the global shrinker when
the arc_meta_limit was exceeded. This would cause the VFS to drop
references on a fraction of the dentries in the dcache. The ARC
could then safely reclaim the memory used by these entries and
honor the arc_meta_limit. Unfortunately, when per-filesystem
shrinkers were added the old interfaces were made unavailable.
This change adds support to use the new per-filesystem shrinker
interface so we can continue to honor the arc_meta_limit. The
major benefit of the new interface is that we can now target
only the zfs filesystem for dentry and inode pruning. Thus we
can minimize any impact on the caching of other filesystems.
In the context of making this change several other important
issues related to managing the ARC were addressed, they include:
* The dnlc_reduce_cache() function which was called by the ARC
to drop dentries for the Posix layer was replaced with a generic
zfs_prune_t callback. The ZPL layer now registers a callback to
drop these dentries removing a layering violation which dates
back to the Solaris code. This callback can also be used by
other ARC consumers such as Lustre.
arc_add_prune_callback()
arc_remove_prune_callback()
* The arc_reduce_dnlc_percent module option has been changed to
arc_meta_prune for clarity. The dnlc functions are specific to
Solaris's VFS and have already been largely eliminated already.
The replacement tunable now represents the number of bytes the
prune callback will request when invoked.
* Less aggressively invoke the prune callback. We used to call
this whenever we exceeded the arc_meta_limit however that's not
strictly correct since it results in over zeleous reclaim of
dentries and inodes. It is now only called once the arc_meta_limit
is exceeded and every effort has been made to evict other data from
the ARC cache.
* More promptly manage exceeding the arc_meta_limit. When reading
meta data in to the cache if a buffer was unable to be recycled
notify the arc_reclaim thread to invoke the required prune.
* Added arcstat_prune kstat which is incremented when the ARC
is forced to request that a consumer prune its cache. Remember
this will only occur when the ARC has no other choice. If it
can evict buffers safely without invoking the prune callback
it will.
* This change is also expected to resolve the unexpect collapses
of the ARC cache. This would occur because when exceeded just the
arc_meta_limit reclaim presure would be excerted on the arc_c
value via arc_shrink(). This effectively shrunk the entire cache
when really we just needed to reclaim meta data.

Added the necessary build infrastructure for building packages
compatible with the Arch Linux distribution. As such, one can now run:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg # Alternatively, one can run 'make arch' as well
on the Arch Linux machine to create two binary packages compatible with
the pacman package manager, one for the zfs userland utilities and
another for the zfs kernel modules. The new packages can then be
installed by running:
# pacman -U $package.pkg.tar.xz
In addition, source-only packages suitable for an Arch Linux chroot
environment or remote builder can also be build using the 'sarch' make
rule.
NOTE: Since the source dist tarball is created on the fly from the head
of the build tree, it's MD5 hash signature will be continually influx.
As a result, the md5sum variable was intentionally omitted from the
PKGBUILD files, and the '--skipinteg' makepkg option is used. This may
or may not have any serious security implications, as the source tarball
is not being downloaded from an outside source.

Update the code to use the bdi_setup_and_register() helper to
simplify the bdi integration code. The updated code now just
registers the bdi during mount and destroys it during unmount.
The only complication is that for 2.6.32 - 2.6.33 kernels the
helper wasn't available so in these cases the zfs code must
provide it. Luckily the bdi_setup_and_register() function
is trivial.
