Many people have noticed that the kmem cache implementation is slow
to release its memory. This patch makes the reclaim behavior more
aggressive by immediately freeing a slab once it is empty. Unused
objects which are cached in the magazines will still prevent a slab
from being freed.

The comment above the Linux 3.16 kernel's clear_bit() states:
/**
* clear_bit - Clears a bit in memory
* @nr: Bit to clear
* @addr: Address to start counting from
*
* clear_bit() is atomic and may not be reordered. However, it does
* not contain a memory barrier, so if it is used for locking purposes,
* you should call smp_mb__before_atomic() and/or smp_mb__after_atomic()
* in order to ensure changes are visible on other processors.
*/
This comment does not make sense in the context of x86 because x86 maps the
operations to barrier(), which is a compiler barrier. However, it does make
sense to me when I consider architectures that reorder around atomic
instructions. In such situations, a processor is allowed to execute the
wake_up_bit() before clear_bit() and we have a race. There are a few
architectures that suffer from this issue.
In such situations, the other processor would wake-up, see the bit is still
taken and go to sleep, while the one responsible for waking it up will
assume that it did its job and continue.
This patch implements a wrapper that maps smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic() to
smp_mb__{before,after}_clear_bit() on older kernels and changes our code to
leverage it in a manner consistent with the mainline kernel.

The port of XFS to Linux introduced a thread-specific PF_FSTRANS bit
that is used to mark contexts which are processing transactions. When
set, allocations in this context can dip into kernel memory reserves
to avoid deadlocks during writeback. Linux 3.9 provided the additional
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO for disabling __GFP_IO in page allocations, which XFS
began using in 3.15.
This patch implements hooks for marking transactions via PF_FSTRANS.
When an allocation is performed in the context of PF_FSTRANS, any
KM_SLEEP allocation is transparently converted to a GFP_NOIO allocation.
Additionally, when using a Linux 3.9 or newer kernel, it will set
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO to prevent direct reclaim from entering pageout() on
on any KM_PUSHPAGE or KM_NOSLEEP allocation. This effectively allows
the spl_vmalloc() helper function to be used safely in a thread which
is responsible for IO.

This patch achieves the following goals:
1. It replaces the preprocessor kmem flag to gfp flag mapping with
proper translation logic. This eliminates the potential for
surprises that were previously possible where kmem flags were
mapped to gfp flags.
2. It maps vmem_alloc() allocations to kmem_alloc() for allocations
sized less than or equal to the newly-added spl_kmem_alloc_max
parameter. This ensures that small allocations will not contend
on a single global lock, large allocations can still be handled,
and potentially limited virtual address space will not be squandered.
This behavior is entirely different than under Illumos due to
different memory management strategies employed by the respective
kernels. However, this functionally provides the semantics required.
3. The --disable-debug-kmem, --enable-debug-kmem (default), and
--enable-debug-kmem-tracking allocators have been unified in to
a single spl_kmem_alloc_impl() allocation function. This was
done to simplify the code and make it more maintainable.
4. Improve portability by exposing an implementation of the memory
allocations functions that can be safely used in the same way
they are used on Illumos. Specifically, callers may safely
use KM_SLEEP in contexts which perform filesystem IO. This
allows us to eliminate an entire class of Linux specific changes
which were previously required to avoid deadlocking the system.
This change will be largely transparent to existing callers but there
are a few caveats:
1. Because the headers were refactored and extraneous includes removed
callers may find they need to explicitly add additional #includes.
In particular, kmem_cache.h must now be explicitly includes to
access the SPL's kmem cache implementation. This behavior is
different from Illumos but it was done to avoid always masking
the Linux slab functions when kmem.h is included.
2. Callers, like Lustre, which made assumptions about the definitions
of KM_SLEEP, KM_NOSLEEP, and KM_PUSHPAGE will need to be updated.
Other callers such as ZFS which did not will not require changes.
3. KM_PUSHPAGE is no longer overloaded to imply GFP_NOIO. It retains
its original meaning of allowing allocations to access reserved
memory. KM_PUSHPAGE callers can be converted back to KM_SLEEP.
4. The KM_NODEBUG flags has been retired and the default warning
threshold increased to 32k.
5. The kmem_virt() functions has been removed. For callers which
need to distinguish between a physical and virtual address use
is_vmalloc_addr().

This change introduces no functional changes to the memory management
interfaces. It only restructures the existing codes by separating the
kmem, vmem, and kmem cache implementations in the separate source and
header files.
Splitting this functionality in to separate files required the addition
of spl_vmem_{init,fini}() and spl_kmem_cache_{initi,fini}() functions.
Additionally, several minor changes to the #include's were required to
accommodate the removal of extraneous header from kmem.h.
But again, while large this patch introduces no functional changes.

Older versions of GCC (e.g. GCC 4.4.7 on RHEL6) do not allow duplicate
typedef declarations with the same type. The trace.h header contains
some typedefs to avoid 'unknown type' errors for C files that haven't
declared the type in question. But this causes build failures for C
files that have already declared the type. Newer versions of GCC (e.g.
v4.6) allow duplicate typedefs with the same type unless pedantic error
checking is in force. To support the older versions we need to remove
the duplicate typedefs.
Removal of the typedefs means we can't built tracepoints code using
those types unless the required headers have been included. To
facilitate this, all tracepoint event declarations have been moved out
of trace.h into separate headers. Each new header is explicitly included
from the C file that uses the events defined therein. The trace.h header
is still indirectly included form zfs_context.h and provides the
implementation of the dprintf(), dbgmsg(), and SET_ERROR() interfaces.
This makes those interfaces readily available throughout the code base.
The macros that redefine DTRACE_PROBE* to use Linux tracepoints are also
still provided by trace.h, so it is a prerequisite for the other
trace_*.h headers.
These new Linux implementation-specific headers do introduce a small
divergence from upstream ZFS in several core C files, but this should
not present a significant maintenance burden.

added to facilite tracing which served us well for many years.
Now that Linux tracepoints have matured they provide all the

maintain parallel functionality it makes sense to fully adopt
tracepoints. Therefore, this patch retires the legacy debugging

Fix a few cases where null-byte termination of strings was done
unnecessarily or incorrectly.
- The snprintf() function always produces a null-byte terminated string
for non-negative return values, so it is not necessary to write out a
null-byte as a separate step.
- Also, it is unsafe to use the return value of snprintf() as an offset
for placing a null-byte, because if the output was truncated the return
value is the number of bytes that _would_ have been written had enough
space been available. Therefore the return value may index beyond the
array boundaries.
- Finally, snprintf() accounts for the null-byte when limiting its output
size, so there is no need to pass it a size parameter that is one less
than the buffer size.

When processing async destroys ZFS would leak space every txg timeout
(5 seconds by default), if no writes occurred, until the pool is totally
full. At this point it would be unfixable without a pool recreation.
In addition if the machine was rebooted with the pool in this situation
would fail to import on boot, hanging indefinitely, as the import process
requires the ability to write data to the pool. Any attempts to query
the pool status during the hung import would not return as the import
holds the pool lock.
The only way to import such a pool would be to specify -o readonly=on
to the zpool import.
zdb -bb <pool> can be used to check for "deferred free" size which is
where this lost space will be counted.

If a spill block's dbuf hasn't yet been written when a spill block is
freed, the unwritten version will still be written. This patch handles
the case in which a spill block's dbuf is freed and undirties it to
prevent it from being written.
The most common case in which this could happen is when xattr=sa is being
used and a long xattr is immediately replaced by a short xattr as in:
setfattr -n user.test -v very_very_very..._long_value <file>
setfattr -n user.test -v short_value <file>
The first value must be sufficiently long that a spill block is generated
and the second value must be short enough to not require a spill block.
In practice, this would typically happen due to internal xattr operations
as a result of setting acltype=posixacl.

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

For the specific tracepoint shown here, 'zfs_arc__miss', data is

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.

The new shrinker API as of Linux 3.12 modifies "struct shrinker" by
replacing the @shrink callback with the pair of @count_objects and
@scan_objects. It also requires the return value of @count_objects to
return the number of objects actually freed whereas the previous @shrink
callback returned the number of remaining freeable objects.
This patch adds support for the new @scan_objects return value semantics.

This has a few benefits. First, it fixes a regression that "Rework
generic memory allocation interfaces" appears to have triggered in
splat's slab_reap and slab_age tests. Second, it makes porting code from
Illumos to ZFSOnLinux easier. Third, it has the side effect of making
reclaim from slab caches that specify reclaim functions an order of
magnitude faster. The splat slab_reap test usually took 30 to 40
seconds. With this change, it takes 3 to 4.

The general strategy used by ZFS to verify that blocks are valid is
to checksum everything. This has the advantage of being extremely
robust and generically applicable regardless of the contents of
the block. If a blocks checksum is valid then its contents are
trusted by the higher layers.
This system works exceptionally well as long as bad data is never
written with a valid checksum. If this does somehow occur due to
a software bug or a memory bit-flip on a non-ECC system it may
result in kernel panic.
One such place where this could occur is if somehow the logical
size stored in a block pointer exceeds the maximum block size.
This will result in an attempt to allocate a buffer greater than
the maximum block size causing a system panic.
To prevent this from happening the arc_read() function has been
updated to detect this specific case. If a block pointer with an
invalid logical size is passed it will treat the block as if it
contained a checksum error.

The Linux VFS handles mandatory locks generically so we shouldn't
need to check for conflicting locks in zfs_read(), zfs_write(), or
zfs_freesp(). Linux 3.18 removed the lock_may_read() and
lock_may_write() interfaces which we were relying on for this
purpose. Rather than emulating those interfaces we remove the
redundant checks.

When a clone is created of a snapshot that has been marked for
deferred destroy (with "zfs destroy -d"), the clone "inherits" the
defer_destroy flag from the origin, and any snapshots of the clone
"inherit" the defer_destroy flag from the clone. This causes a strange
situation where the clone's snapshots are marked for defer_destroy but
they have no holds or clones. If the clone's snapshot gets a hold or
clone, which is then deleted, we will honor the incorrectly-set
defer_destroy flag and delete the snapshot!
Steps to reproduce:
* zpool create test c1t1d0
* zfs create test/fs
* zfs snapshot test/fs@a
* zfs clone test/fs@a test/clone
* zfs destroy -d test/fs@a
* zfs clone test/fs@a test/clone2
* zfs snapshot test/clone2@a
* zfs hold hld test/clone2@a
* zfs release hld test/clone2@a
* zfs list -r -t all test
<test/clone2@a has been destroyed>
We noticed that this causes dcenter to get very confused, because it
treats snapshots that are marked defer_destroy as not existing. So it
won't see any snapshots of the clone that's marked defer_destroy.

Closes#2690
Restore_object should not use two transactions to restore an object:
* one transaction is used for dmu_object_claim
* another transaction is used to set compression, checksum and most
importantly bonus data
* furthermore dmu_object_reclaim internally uses multiple transactions
* dmu_free_long_range frees chunks in separate transactions
* dnode_reallocate is executed in a distinct transaction
The fact the dnode_allocate/dnode_reallocate are executed in one
transaction and bonus (re-)population is executed in a different
transaction may lead to violation of ZFS consistency assertions if the
transactions are assigned to different transaction groups. Also, if
the first transaction group is successfully written to a permanent
storage, but the second transaction is lost, then an invalid dnode may
be created on the stable storage.
3693 restore_object uses at least two transactions to restore an object

In zfs_acl_chown_setattr(), the zfs_mode_comput() function is used to
create a traditional mode value based on an ACL. If no ACL exists, this
processing shouldn't be done. Problems caused by this were most evident
on version 4 filesystems which not only don't have system attributes,
and also frequently have empty ACLs. On such filesystems, performing a
chown() operation could have the effect of dirtying the mode bits in
memory but not on the file system as follows:
# create a file with typical mode of 664
echo test > test
chown anyuser test
ls -l test
and the mode will show up as all zeroes. Unmounting/mounting and/or
exporting/importing the filesystem will reveal the proper mode again.

The new zpl_aio_write() and zpl_aio_read() functions use kmem_alloc()
to allocate enough memory to hold the vectorized IO. While this
allocation will be small it's been observed in practice to sometimes
slightly exceed the 8K warning threshold by a few kilobytes.
Therefore, the KM_NODEBUG flag has been added to suppress warning.

This is optional functionality which may or may not be useful to
ZFS when using older kernels. It is never a hard requirement.
Therefore this functionality is being removed from the SPL and
a simpler slimmed down version will be added to ZFS.
