Don Brady e625030c11 OpenZFS 9425 - channel programs can be interrupted
Problem Statement
=================
ZFS Channel program scripts currently require a timeout, so that hung or
long-running scripts return a timeout error instead of causing ZFS to get
wedged. This limit can currently be set up to 100 million Lua instructions.
Even with a limit in place, it would be desirable to have a sys admin
(support engineer) be able to cancel a script that is taking a long time.

Proposed Solution
=================
Make it possible to abort a channel program by sending an interrupt signal.In
the underlying txg_wait_sync function, switch the cv_wait to a cv_wait_sig to
catch the signal. Once a signal is encountered, the dsl_sync_task function can
install a Lua hook that will get called before the Lua interpreter executes a
new line of code. The dsl_sync_task can resume with a standard txg_wait_sync
call and wait for the txg to complete.  Meanwhile, the hook will abort the
script and indicate that the channel program was canceled. The kernel returns
a EINTR to indicate that the channel program run was canceled.

Porting notes: Added missing return value from cv_wait_sig()

The Solaris Porting Layer, SPL, is a Linux kernel module which provides a compatibility layer used by the ZFS on Linux project.

Installation

The latest version of the SPL is maintained as part of this repository. Only when building ZFS version 0.7.x or earlier must an external SPL release be used. These releases can be found at:

Release

The SPL is released under a GPLv2 license.
