Brian Behlendorf 1c7b3eaf87 RHEL 6.4 compat, fallocate() 
In the upstream kernel the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE #define was
introduced after the fallocate() function was moved from the
inode_operations to the file_operations structure.  Therefore,
the SPL code assumed that if FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE was defined
it was safe to use f_ops->fallocate().

Unfortunately, the RHEL6.4 kernel has only backported the
FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE #define and not the fallocate() change.

To address this compatibility issue the spl_filp_fallocate()
helper function was added to properly detect which interface
is available.

README.markdown

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
