If a thread is holding mutex when doing cv_destroy, it might end up waiting a thread in cv_wait. The waiter would wake up trying to aquire the same mutex and cause deadlock. We solve this by move the mutex_enter to the bottom of cv_wait, so that the waiter will release the cv first, allowing cv_destroy to succeed and have a chance to free the mutex. This would create race condition on the cv_mutex. We use xchg to set and check it to ensure we won't be harmed by the race. This would result in the cv_mutex debugging becomes best-effort. Also, the change reveals a race, which was unlikely before, where we call mutex_destroy while test threads are still holding the mutex. We use kthread_stop to make sure the threads are exit before mutex_destroy.

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
