Andriy Tkachuk 33961142a2 Fix deadlock on dmu_tx_assign() from vdev_rebuild()
vdev_rebuild() is always called with spa_config_lock held in
RW_WRITER mode. However, when it tries to call dmu_tx_assign()
the latter may hang on dmu_tx_wait() waiting for available txg.
But that available txg may not happen because txg_sync takes
spa_config_lock in order to process the current txg. So we have
a deadlock case here:

 - dmu_tx_assign() waits for txg holding spa_config_lock;
 - txg_sync waits for spa_config_lock not progressing with txg.

Here are the stacks:

    __schedule+0x24e/0x590
    schedule+0x69/0x110
    cv_wait_common+0xf8/0x130 [spl]
    __cv_wait+0x15/0x20 [spl]
    dmu_tx_wait+0x8e/0x1e0 [zfs]
    dmu_tx_assign+0x49/0x80 [zfs]
    vdev_rebuild_initiate+0x39/0xc0 [zfs]
    vdev_rebuild+0x84/0x90 [zfs]
    spa_vdev_attach+0x305/0x680 [zfs]
    zfs_ioc_vdev_attach+0xc7/0xe0 [zfs]

    cv_wait_common+0xf8/0x130 [spl]
    __cv_wait+0x15/0x20 [spl]
    spa_config_enter+0xf9/0x120 [zfs]
    spa_sync+0x6d/0x5b0 [zfs]
    txg_sync_thread+0x266/0x2f0 [zfs]

The solution is to pass txg returned by spa_vdev_enter(spa)
at the top of spa_vdev_attach() to vdev_rebuild() and call
dmu_tx_create_assigned(txg) which doesn't wait for txg.

Supported Kernels and Distributions

Linux

Given the wide variety of Linux environments, we prioritize development and testing on stable, supported kernels and distributions.

Kernel (kernel.org)

All longterm kernels from kernel.org are supported. stable kernels are usually supported in the next OpenZFS release.

Supported longterm kernels: 6.18, 6.12, 6.6, 6.1, 5.15, 5.10.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

All RHEL (and compatible systems: AlmaLinux OS, Rocky Linux, etc) on the full or maintenance support tracks are supported.

Supported RHEL releases: 8.10, 9.7, 10.1.

Ubuntu

All Ubuntu LTS releases are supported.

Supported Ubuntu releases: 24.04 “Noble”, 22.04 “Jammy”.

Debian

All Debian stable and LTS releases are supported.

Supported Debian releases: 13 “Trixie”, 12 “Bookworm”, 11 “Bullseye”.

Other Distributions

Generally, if a distribution is following an LTS kernel, it should work well with OpenZFS.

FreeBSD

All FreeBSD releases receiving security support are supported by OpenZFS.

Supported FreeBSD releases: 15.0, 14.3, 13.5.
