Brian Behlendorf 2345368646 Rename cv_wait_interruptible() to cv_wait_sig()
Commit f752b46e added the cv_wait_interruptible() function to allow
condition variables to be woken by signals.  This function and its
timed wait counterpart should have been named cv_wait_sig() to match
the illumos interface which provides the same functionality.

This patch renames the symbol but leaves a #define compatibility
wrapper in place until the ZFS code can be moved to the correct
name.

This patch also makes a small number of cosmetic changes to make
the condvar source and header cstyle clean.

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 do not want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.

To build packages for your distribution:

$ ./configure
$ make pkg

If you are building directly from the git tree and not an officially released tarball you will need to generate the configure script. This can be done by executing the autogen.sh script after installing the GNU autotools for your distribution.

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-...

The SPL comes with an automated test suite called SPLAT. The test suite is implemented in two parts. There is a kernel module which contains the tests and a user space utility which controls which tests are run. To run the full test suite:

$ sudo insmod ./module/splat/splat.ko
$ sudo ./cmd/splat --all

Full documentation for building, configuring, testing, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
