This adds two new pool properties:
- dedup_table_size, the total size of all DDTs on the pool; and
- dedup_table_quota, the maximum possible size of all DDTs in the pool
When set, quota will be enforced by checking when a new entry is about
to be created. If the pool is over its dedup quota, the entry won't be
created, and the corresponding write will be converted to a regular
non-dedup write. Note that existing entries can be updated (ie their
refcounts changed), as that reuses the space rather than requiring more.
dedup_table_quota can be set to 'auto', which will set it based on the
size of the devices backing the "dedup" allocation device. This makes it
possible to limit the DDTs to the size of a dedup vdev only, such that
when the device fills, no new blocks are deduplicated.

- ent is always &zio->io_tqent, and zio is always provided, so we can

- the only flag used is TQ_FRONT, which can just be a bool;
- zio != NULL was part of the "use allocator" test, but it never would
have got that far, because that arg was only set to NULL in the

spa_export_thread to indicate an import is in progress on the
spa. This allows for an export to a diffent pool to proceed
in parallel while an export is still processing potentially
long operations like spa_unload_log_sm_flush_all().
Calls like spa_lookup() and spa_vdev_enter() that rely on
the spa_namespace_lock to serialize them against a concurrent
export, now wait for any in-progress export thread to complete
before proceeding.
The 'zpool import -a' sub-command also provides multi-threaded

- Reduce number of write issue taskqs down to one per 16 CPU

many write issue taskqs may reduce write speed on single-file

This commit allow spa_load() to drop the spa_namespace_lock so
that imports can happen concurrently. Prior to dropping the
spa_namespace_lock, the import logic will set the spa_load_thread
value to track the thread which is doing the import.
Consumers of spa_lookup() retain the same behavior by blocking
when either a thread is holding the spa_namespace_lock or the
spa_load_thread value is set. This will ensure that critical
concurrent operations cannot take place while a pool is being
imported.
The zpool command is also enhanced to provide multi-threaded support
when invoking zpool import -a.
Lastly, zinject provides a mechanism to insert artificial delays
when importing a pool and new zfs tests are added to verify parallel
import functionality.

This feature allows disks to be added one at a time to a RAID-Z group,
expanding its capacity incrementally. This feature is especially useful
for small pools (typically with only one RAID-Z group), where there
isn't sufficient hardware to add capacity by adding a whole new RAID-Z
group (typically doubling the number of disks).
== Initiating expansion ==
A new device (disk) can be attached to an existing RAIDZ vdev, by
running `zpool attach POOL raidzP-N NEW_DEVICE`, e.g. `zpool attach tank
raidz2-0 sda`. The new device will become part of the RAIDZ group. A
"raidz expansion" will be initiated, and the new device will contribute
additional space to the RAIDZ group once the expansion completes.
The `feature@raidz_expansion` on-disk feature flag must be `enabled` to
initiate an expansion, and it remains `active` for the life of the pool.
In other words, pools with expanded RAIDZ vdevs can not be imported by
older releases of the ZFS software.
== During expansion ==
The expansion entails reading all allocated space from existing disks in
the RAIDZ group, and rewriting it to the new disks in the RAIDZ group
(including the newly added device).
The expansion progress can be monitored with `zpool status`.
Data redundancy is maintained during (and after) the expansion. If a
disk fails while the expansion is in progress, the expansion pauses
until the health of the RAIDZ vdev is restored (e.g. by replacing the
failed disk and waiting for reconstruction to complete).
The pool remains accessible during expansion. Following a reboot or
export/import, the expansion resumes where it left off.
== After expansion ==
When the expansion completes, the additional space is available for use,
and is reflected in the `available` zfs property (as seen in `zfs list`,
`df`, etc).
Expansion does not change the number of failures that can be tolerated
without data loss (e.g. a RAIDZ2 is still a RAIDZ2 even after
expansion).
A RAIDZ vdev can be expanded multiple times.
After the expansion completes, old blocks remain with their old
data-to-parity ratio (e.g. 5-wide RAIDZ2, has 3 data to 2 parity), but
distributed among the larger set of disks. New blocks will be written
with the new data-to-parity ratio (e.g. a 5-wide RAIDZ2 which has been
expanded once to 6-wide, has 4 data to 2 parity). However, the RAIDZ
vdev's "assumed parity ratio" does not change, so slightly less space
than is expected may be reported for newly-written blocks, according to
`zfs list`, `df`, `ls -s`, and similar tools.

As part of transaction group commit, dsl_pool_sync() sequentially calls
dsl_dataset_sync() for each dirty dataset, which subsequently calls
dmu_objset_sync(). dmu_objset_sync() in turn uses up to 75% of CPU
cores to run sync_dnodes_task() in taskq threads to sync the dirty
dnodes (files).
There are two problems:
1. Each ZVOL in a pool is a separate dataset/objset having a single
dnode. This means the objsets are synchronized serially, which
leads to a bottleneck of ~330K blocks written per second per pool.
2. In the case of multiple dirty dnodes/files on a dataset/objset on a
big system they will be sync'd in parallel taskq threads. However,
it is inefficient to to use 75% of CPU cores of a big system to do
that, because of (a) bottlenecks on a single write issue taskq, and
(b) allocation throttling. In addition, if not for the allocation
throttling sorting write requests by bookmarks (logical address),
writes for different files may reach space allocators interleaved,
leading to unwanted fragmentation.
The solution to both problems is to always sync no more and (if
possible) no fewer dnodes at the same time than there are allocators
the pool.

Address the following bugs in persistent error log:
1) Check nested clones, eg "fs->snap->clone->snap2->clone2".
2) When deleting files containing error blocks in those clones (from
"clone" the example above), do not break the check chain.
3) When deleting files in the originating fs before syncing the errlog
to disk, do not break the check chain. This happens because at the
time of introducing the error block in the error list, we do not have
its birth txg and the head filesystem. If the original file is
deleted before the error list is synced to the error log (which is
when we actually lookup the birth txg and the head filesystem), then
we do not have access to this info anymore and break the check chain.
The most prominent change is related to achieving (3). We expand the
spa_error_entry_t structure to accommodate the newly introduced
zbookmark_err_phys_t structure (containing the birth txg of the error
block).Due to compatibility reasons we cannot remove the
zbookmark_phys_t structure and we also need to place the new structure
after se_avl, so it is not accounted for in avl_find(). Then we modify
spa_log_error() to also provide the birth txg of the error block. With
these changes in place we simplify the previously introduced function
get_head_and_birth_txg() (now named get_head_ds()).
We chose not to follow the same approach for the head filesystem (thus
completely removing get_head_ds()) to avoid introducing new lock
contentions.
The stack sizes of nested functions (as measured by checkstack.pl in the
linux kernel) are:
check_filesystem [zfs]: 272 (was 912)
check_clones [zfs]: 64

In #13871, zfs_vdev_aggregation_limit_non_rotating and
zfs_vdev_aggregation_limit being signed was pointed out as a possible
reason not to eliminate an unnecessary MAX(unsigned, 0) since the
unsigned value was assigned from them.
There is no reason for these module parameters to be signed and upon
inspection, it was found that there are a number of other module
parameters that are signed, but should not be, so we make them unsigned.
Making them unsigned made it clear that some other variables in the code
should also be unsigned, so we also make those unsigned. This prevents
users from setting negative values that could potentially cause bad
behaviors. It also makes the code slightly easier to understand.
Mostly module parameters that deal with timeouts, limits, bitshifts and
percentages are made unsigned by this. Any that are boolean are left
signed, since whether booleans should be considered signed or unsigned
does not matter.
Making zfs_arc_lotsfree_percent unsigned caused a
`zfs_arc_lotsfree_percent >= 0` check to become redundant, so it was
removed. Removing the check was also necessary to prevent a compiler
error from -Werror=type-limits.
Several end of line comments had to be moved to their own lines because
replacing int with uint_t caused us to exceed the 80 character limit
enforced by cstyle.pl.
The following were kept signed because they are passed to
taskq_create(), which expects signed values and modifying the
OpenSolaris/Illumos DDI is out of scope of this patch:
* metaslab_load_pct
* zfs_sync_taskq_batch_pct
* zfs_zil_clean_taskq_nthr_pct
* zfs_zil_clean_taskq_minalloc
* zfs_zil_clean_taskq_maxalloc
* zfs_arc_prune_task_threads
Also, negative values in those parameters was found to be harmless.
The following were left signed because either negative values make
sense, or more analysis was needed to determine whether negative values
should be disallowed:
* zfs_metaslab_switch_threshold
* zfs_pd_bytes_max
* zfs_livelist_min_percent_shared
zfs_multihost_history was made static to be consistent with other
parameters.
A number of module parameters were marked as signed, but in reality
referenced unsigned variables. upgrade_errlog_limit is one of the
numerous examples. In the case of zfs_vdev_async_read_max_active, it was
already uint32_t, but zdb had an extern int declaration for it.
Interestingly, the documentation in zfs.4 was right for
upgrade_errlog_limit despite the module parameter being wrongly marked,
while the documentation for zfs_vdev_async_read_max_active (and friends)
was wrong. It was also wrong for zstd_abort_size, which was unsigned,
but was documented as signed.
Also, the documentation in zfs.4 incorrectly described the following
parameters as ulong when they were int:
* zfs_arc_meta_adjust_restarts
* zfs_override_estimate_recordsize
They are now uint_t as of this patch and thus the man page has been
updated to describe them as uint.
dbuf_state_index was left alone since it does nothing and perhaps should
be removed in another patch.
If any module parameters were missed, they were not found by `grep -r
'ZFS_MODULE_PARAM' | grep ', INT'`. I did find a few that grep missed,
but only because they were in files that had hits.
This patch intentionally did not attempt to address whether some of
these module parameters should be elevated to 64-bit parameters, because
the length of a long on 32-bit is 32-bit.
Lastly, it was pointed out during review that uint_t is a better match
for these variables than uint32_t because FreeBSD kernel parameter
definitions are designed for uint_t, whose bit width can change in
future memory models. As a result, we change the existing parameters
that are uint32_t to use uint_t.

Mixing ZIL and normal allocations has several problems:
1. The ZIL allocations are allocated, written to disk, and then a few
seconds later freed. This leaves behind holes (free segments) where the
ZIL blocks used to be, which increases fragmentation, which negatively
impacts performance.
2. When under moderate load, ZIL allocations are of 128KB. If the pool
is fairly fragmented, there may not be many free chunks of that size.
This causes ZFS to load more metaslabs to locate free segments of 128KB
or more. The loading happens synchronously (from zil_commit()), and can
take around a second even if the metaslab's spacemap is cached in the
ARC. All concurrent synchronous operations on this filesystem must wait
while the metaslab is loading. This can cause a significant performance
impact.
3. If the pool is very fragmented, there may be zero free chunks of
128KB or more. In this case, the ZIL falls back to txg_wait_synced(),
which has an enormous performance impact.
These problems can be eliminated by using a dedicated log device
("slog"), even one with the same performance characteristics as the
normal devices.
This change sets aside one metaslab from each top-level vdev that is
preferentially used for ZIL allocations (vdev_log_mg,
spa_embedded_log_class). From an allocation perspective, this is
similar to having a dedicated log device, and it eliminates the
above-mentioned performance problems.
Log (ZIL) blocks can be allocated from the following locations. Each
one is tried in order until the allocation succeeds:
1. dedicated log vdevs, aka "slog" (spa_log_class)
2. embedded slog metaslabs (spa_embedded_log_class)
3. other metaslabs in normal vdevs (spa_normal_class)
The space required for the embedded slog metaslabs is usually between
0.5% and 1.0% of the pool, and comes out of the existing 3.2% of "slop"
space that is not available for user data.
On an all-ssd system with 4TB storage, 87% fragmentation, 60% capacity,
and recordsize=8k, testing shows a ~50% performance increase on random
8k sync writes. On even more fragmented systems (which hit problem #3
above and call txg_wait_synced()), the performance improvement can be
arbitrarily large (>100x).

-Wint-to-pointer-cast "cast to pointer from integer of different size"
because spa.spa_did was uint64_t but pthread_join (via thread_join in
spa_deactivate) takes a pointer (32-bit on i386). Define spa_did to be
pointer-size instead. For now spa_did is in fact never non-zero and the
thread_join could instead be ifdef'd out, but changing the size of
spa_did may be more useful for the future.

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)

When adding test coverage for the new dRAID vdev type the following
options were added to the ztest command. These options are leverages
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)
The zpool_create, zpool_import, redundancy, replacement and fault

The device_rebuild feature enables sequential reconstruction when
resilvering. Mirror vdevs can be rebuilt in LBA order which may
more quickly restore redundancy depending on the pools average block
size, overall fragmentation and the performance characteristics
of the devices. However, block checksums cannot be verified
as part of the rebuild thus a scrub is automatically started after
the sequential resilver completes.
The new '-s' option has been added to the `zpool attach` and
`zpool replace` command to request sequential reconstruction
instead of healing reconstruction when resilvering.
zpool attach -s <pool> <existing vdev> <new vdev>
zpool replace -s <pool> <old vdev> <new vdev>
The `zpool status` output has been updated to report the progress
of sequential resilvering in the same way as healing resilvering.
The one notable difference is that multiple sequential resilvers
may be in progress as long as they're operating on different
top-level vdevs.
The `zpool wait -t resilver` command was extended to wait on
sequential resilvers. From this perspective they are no different
than healing resilvers.
Sequential resilvers cannot be supported for RAIDZ, but are
compatible with the dRAID feature being developed.
As part of this change the resilver_restart_* tests were moved
in to the functional/replacement directory. Additionally, the
replacement tests were renamed and extended to verify both
resilvering and rebuilding.

Currently the best way to wait for the completion of a long-running
operation in a pool, like a scrub or device removal, is to poll 'zpool
status' and parse its output, which is neither efficient nor convenient.
This change adds a 'wait' subcommand to the zpool command. When invoked,
'zpool wait' will block until a specified type of background activity
completes. Currently, this subcommand can wait for any of the following:
- Scrubs or resilvers to complete
- Devices to initialized
- Devices to be replaced
- Devices to be removed
- Checkpoints to be discarded
- Background freeing to complete
For example, a scrub that is in progress could be waited for by running
zpool wait -t scrub <pool>
This also adds a -w flag to the attach, checkpoint, initialize, replace,
remove, and scrub subcommands. When used, this flag makes the operations
kicked off by these subcommands synchronous instead of asynchronous.
This functionality is implemented using a new ioctl. The type of
activity to wait for is provided as input to the ioctl, and the ioctl
blocks until all activity of that type has completed. An ioctl was used
over other methods of kernel-userspace communiction primarily for the
sake of portability.
Porting Notes:
This is ported from Delphix OS change DLPX-44432. The following changes
were made while porting:
- Added ZoL-style ioctl input declaration.
- Reorganized error handling in zpool_initialize in libzfs to integrate
better with changes made for TRIM support.
- Fixed check for whether a checkpoint discard is in progress.
Previously it also waited if the pool had a checkpoint, instead of
just if a checkpoint was being discarded.
- Exposed zfs_initialize_chunk_size as a ZoL-style tunable.
- Updated more existing tests to make use of new 'zpool wait'
functionality, tests that don't exist in Delphix OS.
- Used existing ZoL tunable zfs_scan_suspend_progress, together with
zinject, in place of a new tunable zfs_scan_max_blks_per_txg.
- Added support for a non-integral interval argument to zpool wait.
Future work:
ZoL has support for trimming devices, which Delphix OS does not. In the
future, 'zpool wait' could be extended to add the ability to wait for
trim operations to complete.

When a pool is imported it will scan the pool to verify the integrity
of the data and metadata. The amount it scans will depend on the
import flags provided. On systems with small amounts of memory or
when importing a pool from the crash kernel, it's possible for
spa_load_verify to issue too many I/Os that it consumes all the memory
of the system resulting in an OOM message or a hang.
To prevent this, we limit the amount of memory that the initial pool
scan can consume. This change will, by default, use 1/16th of the ARC
for scan I/Os to prevent running the system out of memory during import.

= Motivation
At Delphix we've seen a lot of customer systems where fragmentation
is over 75% and random writes take a performance hit because a lot
of time is spend on I/Os that update on-disk space accounting metadata.
Specifically, we seen cases where 20% to 40% of sync time is spend
after sync pass 1 and ~30% of the I/Os on the system is spent updating
spacemaps.
The problem is that these pools have existed long enough that we've
touched almost every metaslab at least once, and random writes
scatter frees across all metaslabs every TXG, thus appending to
their spacemaps and resulting in many I/Os. To give an example,
assuming that every VDEV has 200 metaslabs and our writes fit within
a single spacemap block (generally 4K) we have 200 I/Os. Then if we
assume 2 levels of indirection, we need 400 additional I/Os and
since we are talking about metadata for which we keep 2 extra copies
for redundancy we need to triple that number, leading to a total of
1800 I/Os per VDEV every TXG.
We could try and decrease the number of metaslabs so we have less
I/Os per TXG but then each metaslab would cover a wider range on
disk and thus would take more time to be loaded in memory from disk.
In addition, after it's loaded, it's range tree would consume more
memory.
Another idea would be to just increase the spacemap block size
which would allow us to fit more entries within an I/O block
resulting in fewer I/Os per metaslab and a speedup in loading time.
The problem is still that we don't deal with the number of I/Os
going up as the number of metaslabs is increasing and the fact
is that we generally write a lot to a few metaslabs and a little
to the rest of them. Thus, just increasing the block size would
actually waste bandwidth because we won't be utilizing our bigger
block size.
= About this patch
This patch introduces the Log Spacemap project which provides the
solution to the above problem while taking into account all the
aforementioned tradeoffs. The details on how it achieves that can
be found in the references sections below and in the code (see
Big Theory Statement in spa_log_spacemap.c).
Even though the change is fairly constraint within the metaslab
and lower-level SPA codepaths, there is a side-change that is
user-facing. The change is that VDEV IDs from VDEV holes will no
longer be reused. To give some background and reasoning for this,
when a log device is removed and its VDEV structure was replaced
with a hole (or was compacted; if at the end of the vdev array),
its vdev_id could be reused by devices added after that. Now
with the pool-wide space maps recording the vdev ID, this behavior
can cause problems (e.g. is this entry referring to a segment in
the new vdev or the removed log?). Thus, to simplify things the
ID reuse behavior is gone and now vdev IDs for top-level vdevs
are truly unique within a pool.
= Testing
The illumos implementation of this feature has been used internally
for a year and has been in production for ~6 months. For this patch
specifically there don't seem to be any regressions introduced to
ZTS and I have been running zloop for a week without any related
problems.
= Performance Analysis (Linux Specific)
All performance results and analysis for illumos can be found in
the links of the references. Redoing the same experiments in Linux
gave similar results. Below are the specifics of the Linux run.
After the pool reached stable state the percentage of the time
spent in pass 1 per TXG was 64% on average for the stock bits
while the log spacemap bits stayed at 95% during the experiment
(graph: sdimitro.github.io/img/linux-lsm/PercOfSyncInPassOne.png).
Sync times per TXG were 37.6 seconds on average for the stock
bits and 22.7 seconds for the log spacemap bits (related graph:
sdimitro.github.io/img/linux-lsm/SyncTimePerTXG.png). As a result
the log spacemap bits were able to push more TXGs, which is also
the reason why all graphs quantified per TXG have more entries for
the log spacemap bits.
Another interesting aspect in terms of txg syncs is that the stock
bits had 22% of their TXGs reach sync pass 7, 55% reach sync pass 8,
and 20% reach 9. The log space map bits reached sync pass 4 in 79%
of their TXGs, sync pass 7 in 19%, and sync pass 8 at 1%. This
emphasizes the fact that not only we spend less time on metadata
but we also iterate less times to convergence in spa_sync() dirtying
objects.

Finally, the improvement in IOPs that the userland gains from the
change is approximately 40%. There is a consistent win in IOPS as
you can see from the graphs below but the absolute amount of
improvement that the log spacemap gives varies within each minute
interval.

Closes#8442
If dedup is in use, the `dedupditto` property can be set, causing ZFS to
keep an extra copy of data that is referenced many times (>100x). The
idea was that this data is more important than other data and thus we
want to be really sure that it is not lost if the disk experiences a
small amount of random corruption.
ZFS (and system administrators) rely on the pool-level redundancy to
protect their data (e.g. mirroring or RAIDZ). Since the user/sysadmin
doesn't have control over what data will be offered extra redundancy by
dedupditto, this extra redundancy is not very useful. The bulk of the
data is still vulnerable to loss based on the pool-level redundancy.
For example, if particle strikes corrupt 0.1% of blocks, you will either
be saved by mirror/raidz, or you will be sad. This is true even if
dedupditto saved another 0.01% of blocks from being corrupted.
Therefore, the dedupditto functionality is rarely enabled (i.e. the
property is rarely set), and it fulfills its promise of increased
redundancy even more rarely.
Additionally, this feature does not work as advertised (on existing
releases), because scrub/resilver did not repair the extra (dedupditto)
copy (see https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/pull/8270).
In summary, this seldom-used feature doesn't work, and even if it did it
wouldn't provide useful data protection. It has a non-trivial
maintenance burden (again see https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/pull/8270).
We should remove the dedupditto functionality. For backwards
compatibility with the existing CLI, "zpool set dedupditto" will still
"succeed" (exit code zero), but won't have any effect. For backwards
compatibility with existing pools that had dedupditto enabled at some
point, the code will still be able to understand dedupditto blocks and
free them when appropriate. However, ZFS won't write any new dedupditto
blocks.

Issue #8270Closes#8310
UNMAP/TRIM support is a frequently-requested feature to help
prevent performance from degrading on SSDs and on various other
SAN-like storage back-ends. By issuing UNMAP/TRIM commands for
sectors which are no longer allocated the underlying device can
often more efficiently manage itself.
This TRIM implementation is modeled on the `zpool initialize`
feature which writes a pattern to all unallocated space in the
pool. The new `zpool trim` command uses the same vdev_xlate()
code to calculate what sectors are unallocated, the same per-
vdev TRIM thread model and locking, and the same basic CLI for
a consistent user experience. The core difference is that
instead of writing a pattern it will issue UNMAP/TRIM commands
for those extents.
The zio pipeline was updated to accommodate this by adding a new
ZIO_TYPE_TRIM type and associated spa taskq. This new type makes
is straight forward to add the platform specific TRIM/UNMAP calls
to vdev_disk.c and vdev_file.c. These new ZIO_TYPE_TRIM zios are
handled largely the same way as ZIO_TYPE_READs or ZIO_TYPE_WRITEs.
This makes it possible to largely avoid changing the pipieline,
one exception is that TRIM zio's may exceed the 16M block size
limit since they contain no data.
In addition to the manual `zpool trim` command, a background
automatic TRIM was added and is controlled by the 'autotrim'
property. It relies on the exact same infrastructure as the
manual TRIM. However, instead of relying on the extents in a
metaslab's ms_allocatable range tree, a ms_trim tree is kept
per metaslab. When 'autotrim=on', ranges added back to the
ms_allocatable tree are also added to the ms_free tree. The
ms_free tree is then periodically consumed by an autotrim
thread which systematically walks a top level vdev's metaslabs.
Since the automatic TRIM will skip ranges it considers too small
there is value in occasionally running a full `zpool trim`. This
may occur when the freed blocks are small and not enough time
was allowed to aggregate them. An automatic TRIM and a manual
`zpool trim` may be run concurrently, in which case the automatic
TRIM will yield to the manual TRIM.

Instead of choosing a leaf vdev quasi-randomly, by starting at the root
vdev and randomly choosing children, rotate over leaves to issue MMP
writes. This fixes an issue in a pool whose top-level vdevs have
different numbers of leaves.
The issue is that the frequency at which individual leaves are chosen
for MMP writes is based not on the total number of leaves but based on
how many siblings the leaves have.
For example, in a pool like this:
root-vdev
+------+---------------+
vdev1 vdev2
| |
| +------+-----+-----+----+
disk1 disk2 disk3 disk4 disk5 disk6
vdev1 and vdev2 will each be chosen 50% of the time. Every time vdev1
is chosen, disk1 will be chosen. However, every time vdev2 is chosen,
disk2 is chosen 20% of the time. As a result, disk1 will be sent 5x as
many MMP writes as disk2.
This may create wear issues in the case of SSDs. It also reduces the
effectiveness of MMP as it depends on the writes being evenly
distributed for the case where some devices fail or are partitioned.
The new code maintains a list of leaf vdevs in the pool. MMP records
the last leaf used for an MMP write in mmp->mmp_last_leaf. To choose
the next leaf, MMP starts at mmp->mmp_last_leaf and traverses the list,
continuing from the head if the tail is reached. It stops when a

Currently, if a resilver is triggered for any reason while an
existing one is running, zfs will immediately restart the existing
resilver from the beginning to include the new drive. This causes
problems for system administrators when a drive fails while another
is already resilvering. In this case, the optimal thing to do to
reduce risk of data loss is to wait for the current resilver to end
before immediately replacing the second failed drive, which allows
the system to operate with two incomplete drives for the minimum
amount of time.
This patch introduces the resilver_defer feature that essentially
does this for the admin without forcing them to wait and monitor
the resilver manually. The change requires an on-disk feature
since we must mark drives that are part of a deferred resilver in
the vdev config to ensure that we do not assume they are done
resilvering when an existing resilver completes.

torvalds/linux@59b57717f ("blkcg: delay blkg destruction until
after writeback has finished") added a refcount_t to the blkcg
structure. Due to the refcount_t compatibility code, zfs_refcount_t
was used by mistake.
Resolve this by removing the compatibility code and replacing the
occurrences of refcount_t with zfs_refcount_t.

Allocation Classes add the ability to have allocation classes in a
pool that are dedicated to serving specific block categories, such
as DDT data, metadata, and small file blocks. A pool can opt-in to
this feature by adding a 'special' or 'dedup' top-level VDEV.

Overview
========
We parallelize the allocation process by creating the concept of
"allocators". There are a certain number of allocators per metaslab
group, defined by the value of a tunable at pool open time. Each
allocator for a given metaslab group has up to 2 active metaslabs; one
"primary", and one "secondary". The primary and secondary weight mean
the same thing they did in in the pre-allocator world; primary metaslabs
are used for most allocations, secondary metaslabs are used for ditto
blocks being allocated in the same metaslab group. There is also the
CLAIM weight, which has been separated out from the other weights, but
that is less important to understanding the patch. The active metaslabs
for each allocator are moved from their normal place in the metaslab
tree for the group to the back of the tree. This way, they will not be
selected for use by other allocators searching for new metaslabs unless
all the passive metaslabs are unsuitable for allocations. If that does
happen, the allocators will "steal" from each other to ensure that IOs
don't fail until there is truly no space left to perform allocations.
In addition, the alloc queue for each metaslab group has been broken
into a separate queue for each allocator. We don't want to dramatically
increase the number of inflight IOs on low-end systems, because it can
significantly increase txg times. On the other hand, we want to ensure
that there are enough IOs for each allocator to allow for good
coalescing before sending the IOs to the disk. As a result, we take a
compromise path; each allocator's alloc queue max depth starts at a
certain value for every txg. Every time an IO completes, we increase the
max depth. This should hopefully provide a good balance between the two
failure modes, while not dramatically increasing complexity.
We also parallelize the spa_alloc_tree and spa_alloc_lock, which cause
very similar contention when selecting IOs to allocate. This
parallelization uses the same allocator scheme as metaslab selection.
Performance Results
===================
Performance improvements from this change can vary significantly based
on the number of CPUs in the system, whether or not the system has a
NUMA architecture, the speed of the drives, the values for the various
tunables, and the workload being performed. For an fio async sequential
write workload on a 24 core NUMA system with 256 GB of RAM and 8 128 GB
SSDs, there is a roughly 25% performance improvement.
Future Work
===========
Analysis of the performance of the system with this patch applied shows
that a significant new bottleneck is the vdev disk queues, which also
need to be parallelized. Prototyping of this change has occurred, and
there was a performance improvement, but more work needs to be done
before its stability has been verified and it is ready to be upstreamed.

In the case of one pool being built on another pool, we want
to make sure we don't end up throttling the lower (backing)
pool when the upper pool is the majority contributor to dirty
data. To insure we make forward progress during throttling, we
also check the current pool's net dirty data and only throttle
if it exceeds zfs_arc_pool_dirty_percent of the anonymous dirty
data in the cache.
