The Fedora 3.6 debug kernel identified the following issue where we call copy_to_user() under a spin lock(). This used to be safe in older kernels but no longer appears to be true so the spin lock was changed to a mutex. None of this code is performance critical so allowing the process to sleep is harmless.

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
