Notes on porting to ZFS on Linux:
The original changeset mostly deals with mdb ::zio dcmd.
However, in order to provide the requested functionality
it modifies vdev and zio structures to keep the timing data
in nanoseconds instead of ticks. It is these changes that
are ported over in the commit in hand.
One visible change of this commit is that the default value
of 'zfs_vdev_time_shift' tunable is changed:
zfs_vdev_time_shift = 6
to
zfs_vdev_time_shift = 29
The original value of 6 was inherited from OpenSolaris and
was subotimal - since it shifted the raw tick value - it
didn't compensate for different tick frequencies on Linux and
OpenSolaris. The former has HZ=1000, while the latter HZ=100.
(Which itself led to other interesting performance anomalies
under non-trivial load. The deadline scheduler delays the IO
according to its priority - the lower priority the further
the deadline is set. The delay is measured in units of
"shifted ticks". Since the HZ value was 10 times higher,
the delay units were 10 times shorter. Thus really low
priority IO like resilver (delay is 10 units) and scrub
(delay is 20 units) were scheduled much sooner than intended.
The overall effect is that resilver and scrub IO consumed
more bandwidth at the expense of the other IO.)
Now that the bookkeeping is done is nanoseconds the shift
behaves correctly for any tick frequency (HZ).

When CONFIG_UIDGID_STRICT_TYPE_CHECKS is enabled uid_t/git_t are
replaced by kuid_t/kgid_t, which are structures instead of integral
types. This causes any code that uses an integral type to fail to build.
The User Namespace functionality introduced in Linux 3.8 requires
CONFIG_UIDGID_STRICT_TYPE_CHECKS, so we could not build against any
kernel that supported it.
We resolve this by converting between the new kuid_t/kgid_t structures
and the original uid_t/gid_t types.

When the meta limit is exceeded the ARC evicts some meta data
buffers from the mfu+mru lists. Unfortunately, for meta data
heavy workloads it's possible for these buffers to accumulate
on the ghost lists if arc_c doesn't exceed arc_size.
To handle this case arc_adjust_meta() has been entended to
explicitly evict meta data buffers from the ghost lists in
proportion to what was evicted from the mfu+mru lists.
If this is insufficient we request that the VFS release
some inodes and dentries. This will result in the release
of some dnodes which are counted as 'other' metadata.

The default behavior of arc_evict_ghost() is to start by evicting
data buffers. Then only if the requested number of bytes to evict
cannot be satisfied by data buffers move on to meta data buffers.
This is ideal for honoring arc_c since it's preferable to keep the
meta data cached. However, if we're trying to free memory from the
arc to honor the meta limit it's a problem because we will need to
discard all the data to get to the meta data.
To avoid this issue the arc_evict_ghost() is now passed a fourth
argumented describing which buffer type to start with. The
arc_evict() function already behaves exactly like this for a
same reason so this is consistent with the existing code.
All existing callers have been updated to pass ARC_BUFC_DATA so
this patch introduces no functional change. New callers may
pass ARC_BUFC_METADATA to skip immediately to evicting meta
data leaving the normal data untouched.

zfs_readdir() is used by getdents(), which provides a list of all files
in directory, their types and an offset that be used by llseek() to seek
to the next directory entry.
On Solaris, the first two directory entries "." and ".." respectively
have offsets 1 and 2 on ZFS while the other files have rather large
numbers. Currently, ZFSOnLinux is giving "." offset 0 and all other
entries large numbers. The first entry's next entry offset points to
itself, which causes software that uses llseek() in conjunction with
getdents() for filesystem navigation to enter an infinite loop. The
offsets used for each directory entry are filesystem specific on all
platforms, so we can fix this by adopting the Solaris behavior.
Also, we currently report each directory entry as having type 0 (???).
This is not wrong, but we can do better. getdents() on Solaris does not
appear to provide this information, but it does on Linux and Mac OS X
do. ZFS provides easy access to type information in zfs_readdir(), so
this patch provides this as well.

Normally we don't list pools that are imported read-only in the cache
file, however you can accidentally get one into the cache file by
importing and exporting a read-write pool while a read-only pool is
imported:
$ zpool import -o readonly test1
$ zpool import test2
$ zpool export test2
$ zdb -C
This is a problem because if the machine reboots we import all pools in
the cache file as read-write.

When the property atime=on is set operations which only access
and inode do cause an atime update. However, it turns out that
dirty inodes with updated atimes are only written to disk when
the inodes get evicted from the cache. Somewhat surprisingly
the source suggests that this isn't a ZoL specific issue.
This behavior may in part explain why zfs's reclaim logic has
been observed to be slow. When reclaiming inodes its likely
that they have a dirty atime which will force a write to disk.
Obviously we don't want to force a write to disk for every
atime update, these needs to be batched. The right way to
do this is to fully implement the .dirty_inode and .write_inode
callbacks. However, to do that right requires proper unification
of some fields in the znode/inode. Then we could just mark the
inode dirty and leave it to the VFS to call .write_inode
periodically.
Until that work gets done we have to settle for some middle
ground. The simplest and safest thing we can do for now is
to write the dirty inode on last close. This should prevent
the majority of inodes in the cache from having dirty atimes
and not drastically increase the number of writes.
Some rudimentally testing to show how long it takes to drop
500,000 inodes from the cache shows promising results. This
is as expected because we're no longer do lots of IO as part
of the eviction, it was done earlier during the close.
w/out patch: ~30s to drop 500,000 inodes with drop_caches.
with patch: ~3s to drop 500,000 inodes with drop_caches.

Based on the comments in arc.c we know that buffers can exist both
in arc and l2arc, under this circumstance both arc_buf_hdr_t and
l2arc_buf_hdr_t will be allocated. However the current logic only
cares for memory that l2arc_buf_hdr takes up when the buffer's
state transfers from or to arc_l2c_only. This will cause obvious
deviations for illumos's zfs version since the sizeof(l2arc_buf_hdr)
is larger than ZOL's. We can implement the calcuation in the
following simple way:
1. When allocate a l2arc_buf_hdr_t we add its memory consumption
instantly and subtract it when we free or evict the l2arc buf.
2. According to l2arc_hdr_stat_add and l2arc_hdr_stat_remove, if
the buffer only stays in l2arc we should also add the memory
its arc_buf_hdr_t consumes, so we only need to add HDR_SIZE to
arcstat_l2_hdr_size since we already concerned with L2HDR_SIZE
in step 1 and the same for transfering arc bufs from l2arc only
state.
The testbox has 2 4-core Intel Xeon CPUs(2.13GHz), with 16GB memory
and tests were set upped in the following way:
1. Fdisked a SATA disk into two partitions, one partition for zpool
storage and the other one was used as the cache device.
2. Generated some files occupying 14GB altogether in the zpool
prepared in step 1 using iozone.
3. Read them all using md5sum and watched the l2arc related statistics
in /proc/spl/kstat/zfs/arcstats. After the reading ended the
l2_hdr_size and l2_size were shown like this:
l2_size 4 4403780608
l2_hdr_size 4 0
which was weird.
4. After applying this patch and reran step 1-3, the results were
as following:
l2_size 4 4306443264
l2_hdr_size 4 535600
these numbers made sense, on 64-bit systems the
sizeof(l2arc_buf_hdr_t) is 16 bytes. Assue all blocks cached by
l2arc are 128KB, so 535600/16*128*1024=4387635200, since not all
blocks are equal-sized, the theoretical result will be a little
bigger, as we can see.
Since I'm familiar with systemtap instrumentation tool I used it to
examine what had happened. The script looked like this:
probe module("zfs").function("arc_chage_state")
{
if ($new_state == $arc_l2_only)
printf("change arc buf to arc_l2_only\n")
}
It will print out some information each time we call funciton
arc_chage_state if the argument new_state is arc_l2_only. I
gathered the trace logs and found that none of the arc bufs ran
into arc state arc_l2_only when the tests was running, this was
the reason why l2_hdr_size in step 3 was 0. The arc bufs fell into
arc_l2_only when the pool or the filesystem was offlined.

The iterate_supers_type() function which was introduced in the
3.0 kernel was supposed to provide a safe way to call an arbitrary
function on all super blocks of a specific type. Unfortunately,
because a list_head was used a bug was introduced which made it
possible for iterate_supers_type() to get stuck spinning on a
super block which was just deactivated.
This can occur because when the list head is removed from the
fs_supers list it is reinitialized to point to itself. If the
iterate_supers_type() function happened to be processing the
removed list_head it will get stuck spinning on that list_head.
The bug was fixed in the 3.3 kernel by converting the list_head
to an hlist_node. However, to resolve the issue for existing
3.0 - 3.2 kernels we detect when a list_head is used. Then to
prevent the spinning from occurring the .next pointer is set to
the fs_supers list_head which ensures the iterate_supers_type()
function will always terminate.

It is possible for an automounted snapshot which is expiring to
deadlock with a manual unmount of the snapshot. This can occur
because taskq_cancel_id() will block if the task is currently
executing until it completes. But it will never complete because
zfsctl_unmount_snapshot() is holding the zsb->z_ctldir_lock which
zfsctl_expire_snapshot() must acquire.
---------------------- z_unmount/0:2153 ---------------------
mutex_lock <blocking on zsb->z_ctldir_lock>

zfsctl_unmount_snapshot <takes zsb->z_ctldir_lock>

zfs_ioc_destroy_snaps_nvl

We resolve the deadlock by dropping the zsb->z_ctldir_lock before
calling __zfsctl_unmount_snapshot(). The lock is only there to
prevent concurrent modification to the zsb->z_ctldir_snaps AVL
tree. Moreover, we're careful to remove the zfs_snapentry_t from
the AVL tree before dropping the lock which ensures no other tasks
can find it. On failure it's added back to the tree.

The read bandwidth of an N-way mirror can by increased by 50%,
and the IOPs by 10%, by more carefully selecting the preferred
leaf vdev.
The existing algorthm selects a perferred leaf vdev based on
offset of the zio request modulo the number of members in the
mirror. It assumes the drives are of equal performance and
that spreading the requests randomly over both drives will be
sufficient to saturate them. In practice this results in the
leaf vdevs being under utilized.
Utilization can be improved by preferentially selecting the leaf
vdev with the least pending IO. This prevents leaf vdevs from
being starved and compensates for performance differences between
disks in the mirror. Faster vdevs will be sent more work and
the mirror performance will not be limitted by the slowest drive.
In the common case where all the pending queues are full and there
is no single least busy leaf vdev a batching stratagy is employed.
Of the N least busy vdevs one is selected with equal probability
to be the preferred vdev for T microseconds. Compared to randomly
selecting a vdev to break the tie batching the requests greatly
improves the odds of merging the requests in the Linux elevator.
The testing results show a significant performance improvement
for all four workloads tested. The workloads were generated
using the fio benchmark and are as follows.
1) 1MB sequential reads from 16 threads to 16 files (MB/s).
2) 4KB sequential reads from 16 threads to 16 files (MB/s).
3) 1MB random reads from 16 threads to 16 files (IOP/s).
4) 4KB random reads from 16 threads to 16 files (IOP/s).

One of the side effects of calling zvol_create_minors() in
zvol_init() is that all pools listed in the cache file will
be opened. Depending on the state and contents of your pool
this operation can take a considerable length of time.
Doing this at load time is undesirable because the kernel
is holding a global module lock. This prevents other modules
from loading and can serialize an otherwise parallel boot
process. Doing this after module inititialization also
reduces the chances of accidentally introducing a race
during module init.
To ensure that /dev/zvol/<pool>/<dataset> devices are
still automatically created after the module load completes
a udev rules has been added. When udev notices that the
/dev/zfs device has been create the 'zpool list' command
will be run. This then will cause all the pools listed
in the zpool.cache file to be opened.
Because this process in now driven asynchronously by udev

Closes#1565
Commit 55d85d5a8c (backport of
the upstream changes) replaced three hardcoded constants:
#define SYNC_PASS_DEFERRED_FREE 2 /* defer frees after this pass */
#define SYNC_PASS_DONT_COMPRESS 4 /* don't compress after this pass */
#define SYNC_PASS_REWRITE 1 /* rewrite new bps after this pass */
with a tunable parameters:
int zfs_sync_pass_deferred_free = 2; /* defer frees starting in this pass */
int zfs_sync_pass_dont_compress = 5; /* don't compress starting in this pass */
int zfs_sync_pass_rewrite = 2; /* rewrite new bps starting in this pass */
This commit makes these tunables available as module parameters
in Linux. They should only be used for performance analysis
because changing them can result in subtle and pathological
performance problems.

Closes#1562
The approach taken was the rework zfs_holey() as little as
possible and then just wrap the code as needed to ensure
correct locking and error handling.
Tested with xfstests 285 and 286. All tests pass except for
7-9 of 285 which try to reserve blocks first via fallocate(2)
and fail because fallocate(2) is not yet supported.
Note that the filp->f_lock spinlock did not exist prior to
Linux 2.6.30, but we avoid the need for autotools check by
virtue of the fact that SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE support was not
added until Linux 3.1.
An autoconf check was added for lseek_execute() which is
currently a private function but the expectation is that it
will be exported perhaps as early as Linux 3.11.

This patch restores the zfs_holey() function from OpenSolaris.
This was removed by commit 3558fd7 because it wasn't clear we
had a use for it in ZoL. However, this functionality is a
prerequisite for adding SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE support to the ZPL.

Closes#1558
Fix a pair of conditions in which a concurrent umount can cause
NULL pointer dereferences:
* zfs_sb_teardown - prevent a NULL dereference by not calling
dmu_objset_pool with a null z_os.
* zfs_resume_fs - don't try to unmount with a null z_os. This
change makes the ZoL code more consistent
with both Illumos and FreeBSD.

Previous commit 7ef5e54e2e caused
module probe failure on 32-bit systems, dmesg showed
Unknown symbol __moddi3
This was caused by the modulo operation 'gethrtime() % tqs->stqs_count'
in the committed code. Instead of implementing __moddi3 for all 32-bit
systems, Behlendorf advised we can just cast the return value of
gethrtime() into a uint64_t, since gethrtime does not return negative
value on all circumstances we need not care about the potential overflow.

Issue #229
The non-blocking allocation handlers in nvlist_alloc() would be
mistakenly assigned if any flags other than KM_SLEEP were passed.
This meant that nvlists allocated with KM_PUSHPUSH or other KM_*
debug flags were effectively always using atomic allocations.
While these failures were unlikely it could lead to assertions
because KM_PUSHPAGE allocations in particular are guaranteed to
succeed or block. They must never fail.
Since the existing API does not allow us to pass allocation
flags to the private allocators the cleanest thing to do is to
add a KM_PUSHPAGE allocator.

3805 arc shouldn't cache freed blocks

ZFS should proactively evict freed blocks from the cache.
On dcenter, we saw that we were caching ~256GB of metadata, while the
pool only had <4GB of metadata on disk. We were wasting about half the
system's RAM (252GB) on blocks that have been freed.
Even though these freed blocks will never be used again, and thus will
eventually be evicted, this causes us to use memory inefficiently for 2
reasons:
1. A block that is freed has no chance of being accessed again, but will
be kept in memory preferentially to a block that was accessed before it
(and is thus older) but has not been freed and thus has at least some
chance of being accessed again.
2. We partition the ARC into several buckets:
user data that has been accessed only once (MRU)
metadata that has been accessed only once (MRU)
user data that has been accessed more than once (MFU)
metadata that has been accessed more than once (MFU)
The user data vs metadata split is somewhat arbitrary, and the primary
control on how much memory is used to cache data vs metadata is to
simply try to keep the proportion the same as it has been in the past
(each bucket "evicts against" itself). The secondary control is to
evict data before evicting metadata.
Because of this bucketing, we may end up with one bucket mostly
containing freed blocks that are very old, while another bucket has more
recently accessed, still-allocated blocks. Data in the useful bucket
(with still-allocated blocks) may be evicted in preference to data in
the useless bucket (with old, freed blocks).
On dcenter, we saw that the MFU metadata bucket was 230MB, while the MFU
data bucket was 27GB and the MRU metadata bucket was 256GB. However,
the vast majority of data in the MRU metadata bucket (256GB) was freed
blocks, and thus useless. Meanwhile, the MFU metadata bucket (230MB)
was constantly evicting useful blocks that will be soon needed.
The problem of cache segmentation is a larger problem that needs more
investigation. However, if we stop caching freed blocks, it should
reduce the impact of this more fundamental issue.

When SA xattrs are enabled only fallback to checking the directory
xattrs when the name is not found as a SA xattr. Otherwise, the SA
error which should be returned to the caller is overwritten by the
directory xattr errors. Positive return values indicating success
will also be immediately returned.
In the case of #1437 the ERANGE error was being correctly returned
by zpl_xattr_get_sa() only to be overridden with ENOENT which was
returned by the subsequent unnessisary call to zpl_xattr_get_dir().

The vn_rdwr() function performs I/O by calling the vfs_write() or
vfs_read() functions. These functions reside just below the system
call layer and the expectation is they have almost the entire 8k of
stack space to work with. In fact, certain layered configurations
such as ext+lvm+md+multipath require the majority of this stack to
avoid stack overflows.
To avoid this posibility the vn_rdwr() call in dump_bytes() has been
moved to the ZIO_TYPE_FREE, taskq. This ensures that all I/O will be
performed with the majority of the stack space available. This ends
up being very similiar to as if the I/O were issued via sys_write()
or sys_read().

Notes for Linux port:
Earlier commit 08d08eb reduced contention on this taskq lock by simply
reducing the number of z_fr_iss threads from 100 to one-per-CPU. We
also optimized the taskq implementation in zfsonlinux/spl@3c6ed54.
These changes significantly improved unlink performance to acceptable
levels.
This patch further reduces time spent spinning on this lock by
randomly dispatching the work items over multiple independent task
queues. The Illumos ZFS developers stated that this lock contention
only arose after "3329 spa_sync() spends 10-20% of its time in
spa_free_sync_cb()" was landed. It's not clear if 3329 affects the
Linux port or not. I didn't see spa_free_sync_cb() show up in
oprofile sessions while unlinking large files, but I may just not
have used the right test case.
I tested unlinking a 1 TB of data with and without the patch and
didn't observe a meaningful difference in elapsed time. However,
oprofile showed that the percent time spent in taskq_thread() was
reduced from about 16% to about 5%. Aside from a possible slight
performance benefit this may be worth landing if only for the sake of
maintaining consistency with upstream.
