MFV 238590, 238592:
In the first zfs ioctl restructuring phase, the libzfs_core library was
introduced. It is a new thin library that wraps around kernel ioctl's.
The idea is to provide a forward-compatible way of dealing with new
features. Arguments are passed in nvlists and not random zfs_cmd fields,
new-style ioctls are logged to pool history using a new method of
history logging.

MFV 247580 [1]:
To address issues of several deadlocks and race conditions the locking
code around dsl_dataset was rewritten and the interface to synctasks
was changed.
User-Visible Changes:
"zfs snapshot" can create more arbitrary snapshots at once (atomically)
"zfs destroy" destroys multiple snapshots at once
"zfs recv" has improved performance
Backward Compatibility:
I have extended the compatibility layer to support full backward
compatibility by remapping or rewriting the responsible ioctl arguments.
Old utilities are fully supported by the new kernel module.
Forward Compatibility:
New utilities work with old kernels with the following restrictions:
- creating, destroying, holding and releasing of multiple snapshots
at once is not supported, this includes recursive (-r) commands
Illumos ZFS issues:
2882 implement libzfs_core
2900 "zfs snapshot" should be able to create multiple,
arbitrary snapshots at once
3464 zfs synctask code needs restructuring

puts the full original source filename in the STT_FILE entry of the ELF
symbol table, while gcc saves only the basename.
Since the DWARF DW_AT_name attribute contains the full source filename,
both for clang and gcc, ctfconvert takes just the basename of it, for
matching with the STT_FILE entry. So when attempting to match with such
an entry, use its basename, if necessary.

in r247265 (ZFS deadman thread). Both new utilities now support the old
kernel and new kernel properly detects old utilities.
For future backwards compatibility, the vfs.zfs.version.ioctl read-only
sysctl has been introduced. With this sysctl zfs utilities will be able
to detect the ioctl interface version of the currently loaded zfs module.
As a side effect, the zfs utilities between r247265 and this revision don't
support the old kernel module. If you are using HEAD newer or equal than
r247265, install the new kernel module (or whole kernel) first.

Merge the ZFS I/O deadman thread from vendor (illumos).
This feature panics the system on hanging ZFS I/O, helps debugging
and resumes failed service.
The panic behavior can be controlled with the loader-only tunables:
vfs.zfs.deadman_enabled (enable or disable panic on stalled ZFS I/O)
vfs.zfs.deadman_synctime (expiration time for stalled ZFS I/O)
By default, ZFS I/O deadman is enabled by default on amd64 and i386
excluding virtual guest machines.

kernel. Properly restore, continue, and detach from processes
being DTraced when DTrace exits with an error so the program
being inspected is not terminated.
cddl/contrib/opensolaris/cmd/dtrace/dtrace.c:
In fatal(), the generic error handler, close the DTrace
handle as is done in the "probe/script" error handler
dfatal(). fatal() can be invoked after DTrace attaches
to processes (e.g. a script specified by command line
argument can't be found) and closing the handle will
release them.

* Illumos zfs issue #3035 [1] LZ4 compression support in ZFS.
LZ4 is a new high-speed BSD-licensed compression algorithm created
by Yann Collet that delivers very high compression and decompression
performance compared to lzjb (>50% faster on compression, >80% faster
on decompression and around 3x faster on compression of incompressible
data), while giving better compression ratio [1].
This version of LZ4 corresponds to upstream's [2] revision 85.
Please note that for obvious reasons this is not backward read
compatible. This means once a pool have LZ4 compressed data, these
data can no longer be read by older ZFS implementations.
Local changes:
- On-stack hash table disabled and using kernel slab allocator
instead, at this time. This requires larger kernel thread stack
for zio workers. This may change in the future should we adjusted
the zio workers' thread stack size.
- likely and unlikely will be undefined if they are already defined,
this is required for i386 XEN build.
- Removed De Bruijn sequence based __builtin_ctz family of builtins
in favor of the latter. Both GCC and clang supports these builtins.
- Changed the way the LZ4 code detects endianness.
- Manual pages modifications to mention the feature based on Illumos
counterpart.
- Boot loader changes to make it support LZ4 decompression.

the underlying zap_count() to return no errors. However, it is possible
that the pool reaches to such a state where zap_count would return error,
leading to panics when a pool is imported.
This commit changes the ddt_zap_count to return error returned from
zap_count and handle the error appropriately. With this change, it's now
possible to let zpool rollback damaged transaction groups and import the
pool.

Import the zio nop-write improvement from Illumos. To reduce I/O,
nop-write omits overwriting data if the checksum (cryptographically
secure) of new data matches the checksum of existing data.
It also saves space if snapshots are in use.
It currently works only on datasets with enabled compression, disabled
deduplication and sha256 checksums.

have the following configuration:
tank
tank/foo
tank/foo@snap
tank/bar
tank/bar@snap
We can execute:
# zfs destroy -t tank@snap
eventhough tank@snap doesn't exit.
Unfortunately it is not possible to do the same with recursive rename:
# zfs rename -r tank@snap tank@pans
cannot open 'tank@snap': dataset does not exist
...until now. This change allows to recursively rename snapshots even if
snapshot doesn't exist on the starting dataset.
