46e18b3f0f Implemented sharing datasets via NFS using libshare.
The sharenfs and sharesmb properties depend on the libshare library
to export datasets via NFS and SMB. This commit implements the base
libshare functionality as well as support for managing NFS shares.

f2cfee80e3 Fix implicit declaration of 'mkdirp'
The lib/libspl/include/libgen.h header file was being mistakenly
left out of the 'make dist' tarball.  It just happens this doesn't
cause a build failure when creating packages because the system
libgen/h is included instead.  This simply results in the following
warning due to the missing forward declaration of mkdirp().

2cf7f52bc4 Linux compat 2.6.39: mount_nodev()
The .get_sb callback has been replaced by a .mount callback
in the file_system_type structure.  When using the new
interface the caller must now use the mount_nodev() helper.

Unfortunately, the new interface no longer passes the vfsmount
down to the zfs layers.  This poses a problem for the existing
implementation because we currently save this pointer in the
super block for latter use.  It provides our only entry point
in to the namespace layer for manipulating certain mount options.

This needed to be done originally to allow commands like
'zfs set atime=off tank' to work properly.  It also allowed me
to keep more of the original Solaris code unmodified.  Under
Solaris there is a 1-to-1 mapping between a mount point and a
file system so this is a fairly natural thing to do.  However,
under Linux they many be multiple entries in the namespace
which reference the same filesystem.  Thus keeping a back
reference from the filesystem to the namespace is complicated.

Rather than introduce some ugly hack to get the vfsmount and
continue as before.  I'm leveraging this API change to update
the ZFS code to do things in a more natural way for Linux.
This has the upside that is resolves the compatibility issue
for the long term and fixes several other minor bugs which
have been reported.

This commit updates the code to remove this vfsmount back
reference entirely.  All modifications to filesystem mount
options are now passed in to the kernel via a '-o remount'.
This is the expected Linux mechanism and allows the namespace
to properly handle any options which apply to it before passing
them on to the file system itself.

Aside from fixing the compatibility issue, removing the
vfsmount has had the benefit of simplifying the code.  This
change which fairly involved has turned out nicely.

b312979252 Tear down and flush the mmap region
The inode eviction should unmap the pages associated with the inode.
These pages should also be flushed to disk to avoid the data loss.
Therefore, use truncate_setsize() in evict_inode() to release the
pagecache.

The API truncate_setsize() was added in 2.6.35 kernel. To ensure
compatibility with the old kernel, the patch defines its own
truncate_setsize function.

df30f56639 Add "ashift" property to zpool create
Some disks with internal sectors larger than 512 bytes (e.g., 4k) can
suffer from bad write performance when ashift is not configured
correctly.  This is caused by the disk not reporting its actual sector
size, but a sector size of 512 bytes.  The drive may behave this way
for compatibility reasons.  For example, the WDC WD20EARS disks are
known to exhibit this behavior.

When creating a zpool, ZFS takes that wrong sector size and sets the
"ashift" property accordingly (to 9: 1<<9=512), whereas it should be
set to 12 for 4k sectors (1<<12=4096).

This patch allows an adminstrator to manual specify the known correct
ashift size at 'zpool create' time.  This can significantly improve
performance in certain cases.  However, it will have an impact on your
total pool capacity.  See the updated ashift property description
in the zpool.8 man page for additional details.

Valid values for the ashift property range from 9 to 17 (512B-128KB).
Additionally, you may set the ashift to 0 if you wish to auto-detect
the sector size based on what the disk reports, this is the default
behavior.  The most common ashift values are 9 and 12.

  Example:
  zpool create -o ashift=12 tank raidz2 sda sdb sdc sdd

2e08aedba4 Always check -Wno-unused-but-set-variable gcc support
The previous commit 8a7e1ceefa wasn't
quite right.  This check applies to both the user and kernel space
build and as such we must make sure it runs regardless of what
the --with-config option is set too.

For example, if --with-config=kernel then the autoconf test does
not run and we generate build warnings when compiling the kernel
packages.

gcc then it is used otherwise it is omited.

1b9d8c340f Fix 'zfs send -D' segfault
Sending pools with dedup results in a segfault due to a Solaris
portability issue.  Under Solaris the pipe(2) library call
creates a bidirectional data channel.  Unfortunately, on Linux
pipe(2) call creates unidirection data channel.  The fix is to
use the socketpair(2) function to create the expected
bidirectional channel.

Seth Heeren did the original leg work on this issue for zfs-fuse.
We finally just rediscovered the same portability issue and
dfurphy was able to point me at the original issue for the fix.

df554c148e Fix 'zfs set volsize=N pool/dataset'
This change fixes a kernel panic which would occur when resizing
a dataset which was not open.  The objset_t stored in the
zvol_state_t will be set to NULL when the block device is closed.
To avoid this issue we pass the correct objset_t as the third arg.

The code has also been updated to correctly notify the kernel
when the block device capacity changes.  For 2.6.28 and newer
kernels the capacity change will be immediately detected.  For
earlier kernels the capacity change will be detected when the
device is next opened.  This is a known limitation of older
kernels.

Online ext3 resize test case passes on 2.6.28+ kernels:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/zvol bs=1M count=1 seek=1023
$ zpool create tank /tmp/zvol
$ zfs create -V 500M tank/zd0
$ mkfs.ext3 /dev/zd0

Disable the gethostid() override for Solaris behavior because Linux systems
implement the POSIX standard in a way that allows a negative result.

Mask the gethostid() result to the lower four bytes, like coreutils does in
/usr/bin/hostid, to prevent junk bits or sign-extension on systems that have an
eight byte long type. This can cause a spurious hostid mismatch that prevents
zpool import on 64-bit systems.

12c1acde76 Set -Wno-unused-but-set-variable globally
As of gcc-4.6 the option -Wunused-but-set-variable is enabled by
default.  While this is a useful warning there are numerous places
in the ZFS code when a variable is set and then only checked in an
ASSERT().  To avoid having to update every instance of this in the
code we now set -Wno-unused-but-set-variable to suppress the warning.

Additionally, when building with --enable-debug and -Werror set these
warning also become fatal.  We can reevaluate the suppression of these
error at a later time if it becomes an issue.  For now we are basically
just reverting to the previous gcc behavior.

01c0e61da0 Add init scripts
To support automatically mounting your zfs on filesystem on boot
a basic init script is needed.  Unfortunately, every distribution
has their own idea of the _right_ way to do things.  Rather than
write one very complicated portable init script, which would be
invariably replaced by the distributions own anyway.  I have
instead added support to provide multiple distribution specific
init scripts.

The correct init script for your distribution will be selected
by ZFS_AC_DEFAULT_PACKAGE which will set DEFAULT_INIT_SCRIPT.
During 'make install' the correct script for your system will
be installed from zfs/etc/init.d/zfs.DEFAULT_INIT_SCRIPT to the
usual /etc/init.d/zfs location.

Currently, there is zfs.fedora and a more generic zfs.lsb init
script.  Hopefully, the distribution maintainers who know best
how they want their init scripts to function will feedback their
approved versions to be included in the project.

This change does not consider upstart jobs but I'm not at all
opposed to add that sort of thing.

9ac97c2a93 Print mount/umount errors
Because we are dependent of the system mount/umount utilities to
ensure correct mtab locking, we should not suppress their error
output.  During a successful mount/umount they will be silent,
but during a failure the error message they print is the only sure
way to know why a mount failed.  This is because the (u)mount(8)
return code does not contain the result of the system call issued.
The only way to clearly idenify why thing failed is to rely on
the error message printed by the tool.

Longer term once libmount is available we can issue the mount/umount
system calls within the tool and still be ensured correct mtab locking.

d53368f675 Fix mount helper
Several issues related to strange mount/umount behavior were reported
and this commit should address most of them.  The original idea was
to put in place a zfs mount helper (mount.zfs).  This helper is used
to enforce 'legacy' mount behavior, and perform any extra mount argument
processing (selinux, zfsutil, etc).  This helper wasn't ready for the

extensively tested.

f03e41e8da Improve 'zpool import' safety
There are three improvements here to 'zpool import' proposed by Fajar
in Github issue #98.  They are all good so I'm commiting all three.

1) Add descriptions for "hpet" and "core" blacklist entries.

2) Add "core" to the blacklist, as described in the issue accessing
this device will crash Xen dom0.

3) Refine probing behavior to use fstatat64().  This allows us to
determine if a device is a block device or a regular file without
having to open it.  This is the safest appraoch when probing /dev/
because the simple act of opening a device may have unexpected
consequences.

At the time of this commit both Ubuntu Lucid, and Debian Squeeze

c5d915f423 Minimal libshare infrastructure
ZFS even under Solaris does not strictly require libshare to be
available.  The current implementation attempts to dlopen() the
library to access the needed symbols.  If this fails libshare
support is simply disabled.

This means that on Linux we only need the most minimal libshare
implementation.  In fact just enough to prevent the build from
failing.  Longer term we can decide if we want to implement a
libshare library like Solaris.  At best this would be an abstraction
layer between ZFS and NFS/SMB.  Alternately, we can drop libshare
entirely and directly integrate ZFS with Linux's NFS/SMB.

Finally the bare bones user-libshare.m4 test was dropped.  If we
do decide to implement libshare at some point it will surely be
as part of this package so the check is not needed.

3fb1fcdea1 Add 'zfs mount' support
By design the zfs utility is supposed to handle mounting and unmounting
a zfs filesystem.  We could allow zfs to do this directly.  There are
system calls available to mount/umount a filesystem.  And there are
library calls available to manipulate /etc/mtab.  But there are a
couple very good reasons not to take this appraoch... for now.

Instead of directly calling the system and library calls to (u)mount
the filesystem we fork and exec a (u)mount process.  The principle
reason for this is to delegate the responsibility for locking and
updating /etc/mtab to (u)mount(8).  This ensures maximum portability
and ensures the right locking scheme for your version of (u)mount
will be used.  If we didn't do this we would have to resort to an
autoconf test to determine what locking mechanism is used.

The downside to using mount(8) instead of mount(2) is that we lose
the exact errno which was returned by the kernel.  The return code
from mount(8) provides some insight in to what went wrong but it
not quite as good.  For the moment this is translated as a best
guess in to a errno for the higher layers of zfs.

In the long term a shared library called libmount is under development
which provides a common API to address the locking and errno issues.
Once the standard mount utility has been updated to use this library
we can then leverage it.  Until then this is the only safe solution.

b3259b6a2b Autoconf selinux support
If libselinux is detected on your system at configure time link
against it.  This allows us to use a library call to detect if
selinux is enabled and if it is to pass the mount option:

  "context=\"system_u:object_r:file_t:s0"

For now this is required because none of the existing selinux
policies are aware of the zfs filesystem type.  Because of this
they do not properly enable xattr based labeling even though
zfs supports all of the required hooks.

Until distro's add zfs as a known xattr friendly fs type we
must use mntpoint labeling.  Alternately, end users could modify
their existing selinux policy with a little guidance.

ZFS filesystem.  It does this by opening all the devices and stat'ing
them to determine which ones are block devices.  If the device turns
out not to be a block device it is skipped.

Usually, this whole process is pretty harmless (although slow).  But
there are certain devices in /dev/ which must be handled in a very
specific way or your system may crash.  For example, if /dev/watchdog
is simply opened the watchdog timer will be started and your system
will panic when the timer expires.

It turns out the /dev/hpet causes similiar problems although only when
accessed under a virtual machine.  For some reason accessing /dev/hpet
causes qemu to crash.  To address this issue this commit adds /dev/hpet
to the device blacklist, it will be skipped solely based on its name.

e06be58641 Fix for access beyond end of device error
This commit fixes a sign extension bug affecting l2arc devices.  Extremely
large offsets may be passed down to the low level block device driver on
reads, generating errors similar to

    attempt to access beyond end of device
    sdbi1: rw=14, want=36028797014862705, limit=125026959

The unwanted sign extension occurrs because the function arc_read_nolock()
stores the offset as a daddr_t, a 32-bit signed int type in the Linux kernel.
This offset is then passed to zio_read_phys() as a uint64_t argument, causing
sign extension for values of 0x80000000 or greater.  To avoid this, we store
the offset in a uint64_t.

This change also changes a few daddr_t struct members to uint64_t in the libspl
headers to avoid similar bugs cropping up in the future.  We also add an ASSERT
to __vdev_disk_physio() to check for invalid offsets.

Closes #66

6ee71f5ce3 Call modprobe with absolute path
Some sudo configurations may not include /sbin in the PATH.
libzfs_load_module() currently does not call modprobe with an absolute path, so
it may fail under such configurations if called under sudo.  This change adds
the absolute path to modprobe so we no longer rely on how PATH is set.

a2c6816c34 Support shorthand names with zpool remove
zpool status displays abbreviated vdev names without leading path components
and, in the case of whole disks, without partition information.  Also, the
zpool subcommands 'create' and 'add' support using shorthand devices names
without qualified paths.  Prior to this change, however, removing a device
generally required specifying its name as it is stored in the vdev label.  So
while zpool status might list a cache disk with a name like A16, removing it
would require a full path such as /dev/disk/zpool/A16-part1, which is
non-intuitive.

This change adds support for shorthand device names with the remove subcommand
so one can simply type, for example,

        zpool remove tank A16

A consequence of this change is that including the partition information when
removing a whole-disk vdev now results in an error.  While this is arguably the
correct behavior, it is a departure from how zpool previously worked in this
project.

This change removes the only reference to ctd_check_path(), so that function is
also removed to avoid compiler warnings.
