As of Linux 3.4 the UMH_WAIT_* constants were renumbered. In particular, the meaning of "1" changed from UMH_WAIT_PROC (wait for process to complete), to UMH_WAIT_EXEC (wait for the exec, but not the process). A number of call sites used the number 1 instead of the constant name, so the behavior was not as expected on kernels with this change. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>
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
