As such, there are no specific synchronous semantics defined for
the xattrs. But for xattr=on, it does log to ZIL and zil_commit() is
done, if sync=always is set on dataset. This provides sync semantics
for xattr=on with sync=always set on dataset.
For the xattr=sa implementation, it doesn't log to ZIL, so, even with
sync=always, xattrs are not guaranteed to be synced before xattr call
returns to caller. So, xattr can be lost if system crash happens, before
txg carrying xattr transaction is synced.
This change adds xattr=sa logging to ZIL on xattr create/remove/update
and xattrs are synced to ZIL (zil_commit() done) for sync=always.
This makes xattr=sa behavior similar to xattr=on.
Implementation notes:
The actual logging is fairly straight-forward and does not warrant
additional explanation.
However, it has been 14 years since we last added new TX types
to the ZIL [1], hence this is the first time we do it after the
introduction of zpool features. Therefore, here is an overview of the
feature activation and deactivation workflow:
1. The feature must be enabled. Otherwise, we don't log the new
record type. This ensures compatibility with older software.
2. The feature is activated per-dataset, since the ZIL is per-dataset.
3. If the feature is enabled and dataset is not for zvol, any append to
the ZIL chain will activate the feature for the dataset. Likewise
for starting a new ZIL chain.
4. A dataset that doesn't have a ZIL chain has the feature deactivated.
We ensure (3) by activating on the first zil_commit() after the feature
was enabled. Since activating the features requires waiting for txg
sync, the first zil_commit() after enabling the feature will be slower
than usual. The downside is that this is really a conservative
approximation: even if we never append a 'TX_SETSAXATTR' to the ZIL
chain, we pay the penalty for feature activation. The upside is that the
user is in control of when we pay the penalty, i.e., upon enabling the
feature.
We ensure (4) by hooking into zil_sync(), where ZIL destroy actually
happens.
One more piece on feature activation, since it's spread across
multiple functions:
zil_commit()
zil_process_commit_list()
if lwb == NULL // first zil_commit since zil_open
zil_create()
if no log block pointer in ZIL header:
if feature enabled and not active:
// CASE 1
enable, COALESCE txg wait with dmu_tx that allocated the
log block
else // log block was allocated earlier than this zil_open
if feature enabled and not active:
// CASE 2
enable, EXPLICIT txg wait
else // already have an in-DRAM LWB
if feature enabled and not active:
// this happens when we enable the feature after zil_create
// CASE 3
enable, EXPLICIT txg wait

ZFS Test Suite README
1) Building and installing the ZFS Test Suite
The ZFS Test Suite runs under the test-runner framework. This framework is built along side the standard ZFS utilities and is included as part of zfs-test package. The zfs-test package can be built from source as follows:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg-utils
The resulting packages can be installed using the rpm or dpkg command as appropriate for your distributions. Alternately, if you have installed ZFS from a distributions repository (not from source) the zfs-test package may be provided for your distribution.
- Installed from source
$ rpm -ivh ./zfs-test*.rpm, or
$ dpkg -i ./zfs-test*.deb,
- Installed from package repository
$ yum install zfs-test
$ apt-get install zfs-test
2) Running the ZFS Test Suite
The pre-requisites for running the ZFS Test Suite are:
- Three scratch disks
- Specify the disks you wish to use in the $DISKS variable, as a space delimited list like this: DISKS='vdb vdc vdd'. By default the zfs-tests.sh script will construct three loopback devices to be used for testing: DISKS='loop0 loop1 loop2'.
- A non-root user with a full set of basic privileges and the ability to sudo(8) to root without a password to run the test.
- Specify any pools you wish to preserve as a space delimited list in the $KEEP variable. All pools detected at the start of testing are added automatically.
- The ZFS Test Suite will add users and groups to test machine to verify functionality. Therefore it is strongly advised that a dedicated test machine, which can be a VM, be used for testing.
Once the pre-requisites are satisfied simply run the zfs-tests.sh script:
$ /usr/share/zfs/zfs-tests.sh
Alternately, the zfs-tests.sh script can be run from the source tree to allow developers to rapidly validate their work. In this mode the ZFS utilities and modules from the source tree will be used (rather than those installed on the system). In order to avoid certain types of failures you will need to ensure the ZFS udev rules are installed. This can be done manually or by ensuring some version of ZFS is installed on the system.
$ ./scripts/zfs-tests.sh
The following zfs-tests.sh options are supported:
-v Verbose zfs-tests.sh output When specified additional
information describing the test environment will be logged
prior to invoking test-runner. This includes the runfile
being used, the DISKS targeted, pools to keep, etc.
-q Quiet test-runner output. When specified it is passed to
test-runner(1) which causes output to be written to the
console only for tests that do not pass and the results
summary.
-x Remove all testpools, dm, lo, and files (unsafe). When
specified the script will attempt to remove any leftover
configuration from a previous test run. This includes
destroying any pools named testpool, unused DM devices,
and loopback devices backed by file-vdevs. This operation
can be DANGEROUS because it is possible that the script
will mistakenly remove a resource not related to the testing.
-k Disable cleanup after test failure. When specified the
zfs-tests.sh script will not perform any additional cleanup
when test-runner exists. This is useful when the results of
a specific test need to be preserved for further analysis.
-f Use sparse files directly instead of loopback devices for
the testing. When running in this mode certain tests will
be skipped which depend on real block devices.
-c Only create and populate constrained path
-I NUM Number of iterations
-d DIR Create sparse files for vdevs in the DIR directory. By
default these files are created under /var/tmp/.
-s SIZE Use vdevs of SIZE (default: 4G)
-r RUNFILES Run tests in RUNFILES (default: common.run,linux.run)
-t PATH Run single test at PATH relative to test suite
-T TAGS Comma separated list of tags (default: 'functional')
-u USER Run single test as USER (default: root)
The ZFS Test Suite allows the user to specify a subset of the tests via a runfile or list of tags.
The format of the runfile is explained in test-runner(1), and the files that zfs-tests.sh uses are available for reference under /usr/share/zfs/runfiles. To specify a custom runfile, use the -r option:
$ /usr/share/zfs/zfs-tests.sh -r my_tests.run
Otherwise user can set needed tags to run only specific tests.
3) Test results
While the ZFS Test Suite is running, one informational line is printed at the
end of each test, and a results summary is printed at the end of the run. The
results summary includes the location of the complete logs, which is logged in
the form /var/tmp/test_results/[ISO 8601 date]. A normal test run launched
with the zfs-tests.sh wrapper script will look something like this:
$ /usr/share/zfs/zfs-tests.sh -v -d /tmp/test

4) Example of adding and running test-case (zpool_example)
This broadly boils down to 5 steps
- Create/Set password-less sudo for user running test case.
- Edit configure.ac, Makefile.am appropriately
- Create/Modify .run files
- Create actual test-scripts
- Run Test case
Will look at each of them in depth.
-
Set password-less sudo for 'Test' user as test script cannot be run as root
-
Edit file configure.ac and include line under AC_CONFIG_FILES section
tests/zfs-tests/tests/functional/cli_root/zpool_example/Makefile -
Edit file tests/runfiles/Makefile.am and add line zpool_example.
pkgdatadir = $(datadir)/@PACKAGE@/runfiles dist_pkgdata_DATA = \ zpool_example.run \ common.run \ freebsd.run \ linux.run \ longevity.run \ perf-regression.run \ sanity.run \ sunos.run -
Create file tests/runfiles/zpool_example.run. This defines the most common properties when run with test-runner.py or zfs-tests.sh.
[DEFAULT] timeout = 600 outputdir = /var/tmp/test_results tags = ['functional'] tests = ['zpool_example_001_pos']If adding test-case to an already existing suite the runfile would already be present and it needs to be only updated. For example, adding zpool_example_002_pos to the above runfile only update the "tests =" section of the runfile as shown below
[DEFAULT] timeout = 600 outputdir = /var/tmp/test_results tags = ['functional'] tests = ['zpool_example_001_pos', 'zpool_example_002_pos'] -
Edit tests/zfs-tests/tests/functional/cli_root/Makefile.am and add line under SUBDIRS.
zpool_example \ (Make sure to escape the line end as there will be other folders names following) -
Create new file tests/zfs-tests/tests/functional/cli_root/zpool_example/Makefile.am the contents of the file could be as below. What it says it that now we have a test case zpool_example_001_pos.ksh
pkgdatadir = $(datadir)/@PACKAGE@/zfs-tests/tests/functional/cli_root/zpool_example dist_pkgdata_SCRIPTS = \ zpool_example_001_pos.ksh -
We can now create our test-case zpool_example_001_pos.ksh under tests/zfs-tests/tests/functional/cli_root/zpool_example/.

Run Test case, which can be done in two ways. Described in detail above in section 2.
- test-runner.py (This takes run file as input. See zpool_example.run)
- zfs-tests.sh. Can execute the run file or individual tests
