Allowing the spl_cache_grow_work() function to reclaim inodes allows for two unlikely deadlocks. Therefore, we clear __GFP_FS for these allocations. The two deadlocks are: * While holding the ZFS_OBJ_HOLD_ENTER(zsb, obj1) lock a function calls kmem_cache_alloc() which happens to need to allocate a new slab. To allocate the new slab we enter FS level reclaim and attempt to evict several inodes. To evict these inodes we need to take the ZFS_OBJ_HOLD_ENTER(zsb, obj2) lock and it just happens that obj1 and obj2 use the same hashed lock. * Similar to the first case however instead of getting blocked on the hash lock we block in txg_wait_open() which is waiting for the next txg which isn't coming because the txg_sync thread is blocked in kmem_cache_alloc(). Note this isn't a 100% fix because vmalloc() won't strictly honor __GFP_FS. However, it practice this is sufficient because several very unlikely things must all occur concurrently.

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and don’t want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.
To build packages for your distribution:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:
$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...
Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
