When partitioning a device a name may be specified for each partition.
Internally zfs doesn't use this partition name for anything so it
has always just been set to "zfs".
However this isn't optimal because udev will create symlinks using
this name in /dev/disk/by-partlabel/. If the name isn't unique
then all the links cannot be created.
Therefore a random 64-bit value has been added to the partition
label, i.e "zfs-1234567890abcdef". Additional information could
be encoded here but since partitions may be reused that might
result in confusion and it was decided against.

Current zpool import code skips directory entries which have prefixes
similar to some system files on linux such as "fd", "core" etc. However,
this means one cannot have one's zpools hosted inside files which are named
e.g. core-1 or lp. Furthermore, apart from the string checks there is already
which makes the zpool_open_func work only with regular files and block devices.
To fix this problem remove most of the checks since they are redundant but
leave the checks for the 'hpet' and 'watchdog' names. Furthermore, change
the checks to strcmp which albeit less safe than strncmp allows to have
devices whose names are prefixed by 'hpet' or 'watchdog'.

Issue #4482
Linux 4.0 introduces lazytime. The idea is that when we update the atime, we
delay writing it to disk for as long as it is reasonably possible.
When lazytime is enabled, dirty_inode will be called with only I_DIRTY_TIME
flag whenever i_atime is updated. So under such condition, we will set
z_atime_dirty. We will only write it to disk if file is closed, inode is
evicted or setattr is called. Ideally, we should also write it whenever SA
is going to be updated, but it is left for future improvement.
There's one thing that we should take care of now that we allow i_atime to be
dirty. In original implementation, whenever SA is modified, zfs_inode_update
will be called to overwrite every thing in inode. This will cause dirty
i_atime to be discarded. We fix this by don't overwrite i_atime in
zfs_inode_update. We only overwrite i_atime when allocating new inode or doing
zfs_rezget with zfs_inode_update_new.

Issue #4482
The problem for atime:
We have 3 places for atime: inode->i_atime, znode->z_atime and SA. And its
handling is a mess. A huge part of mess regarding atime comes from
zfs_tstamp_update_setup, zfs_inode_update, and zfs_getattr, which behave
inconsistently with those three values.
zfs_tstamp_update_setup clears z_atime_dirty unconditionally as long as you
don't pass ATTR_ATIME. Which means every write(2) operation which only updates
ctime and mtime will cause atime changes to not be written to disk.
Also zfs_inode_update from write(2) will replace inode->i_atime with what's
inside SA(stale). But doesn't touch z_atime. So after read(2) and write(2).
You'll have i_atime(stale), z_atime(new), SA(stale) and z_atime_dirty=0.
Now, if you do stat(2), zfs_getattr will actually replace i_atime with what's
inside, z_atime. So you will have now you'll have i_atime(new), z_atime(new),
SA(stale) and z_atime_dirty=0. These will all gone after umount. And you'll
leave with a stale atime.
The problem for relatime:
We do have a relatime config inside ZFS dataset, but how it should interact
with the mount flag MS_RELATIME is not well defined. It seems it wanted
relatime mount option to override the dataset config by showing it as
temporary in `zfs get`. But at the same time, `zfs set relatime=on|off` would
also seems to want to override the mount option. Not to mention that
MS_RELATIME flag is actually never passed into ZFS, so it never really worked.
How Linux handles atime:
The Linux kernel actually handles atime completely in VFS, except for writing
it to disk. So if we remove the atime handling in ZFS, things would just work,
no matter it's strictatime, relatime, noatime, or even O_NOATIME. And whenever
VFS updates the i_atime, it will notify the underlying filesystem via
sb->dirty_inode().
And also there's one thing to note about atime flags like MS_RELATIME and
other flags like MS_NODEV, etc. They are mount point flags rather than
filesystem(sb) flags. Since native linux filesystem can be mounted at multiple
places at the same time, they can all have different atime settings. So these
flags are never passed down to filesystem drivers.
What this patch tries to do:
We remove znode->z_atime, since we won't gain anything from it. We remove most
of the atime handling and leave it to VFS. The only thing we do with atime is
to write it when dirty_inode() or setattr() is called. We also add
file_accessed() in zpl_read() since it's not provided in vfs_read().
After this patch, only the MS_RELATIME flag will have effect. The setting in
dataset won't do anything. We will make zfstuil to mount ZFS with MS_RELATIME
set according to the setting in dataset in future patch.

- HAVE_SSE2,
- HAVE_SSE3,
- HAVE_SSSE3,

- HAVE_SSE4_2,
- HAVE_AVX,
- HAVE_AVX2.
For detecting if an instruction set can be used in runtime, following functions
are provided in (include/linux/simd_x86.h):
- zfs_sse_available()
- zfs_sse2_available()
- zfs_sse3_available()

- zfs_sse4_2_available()
- zfs_avx_available()
- zfs_avx2_available()
- zfs_bmi1_available()
- zfs_bmi2_available()
These function should be called once, on module load, or initialization.
They are safe to use from user and kernel space.

I noticed during code review of zfsonlinux/zfs#4385 that the author of a
commit had peppered the various Makefile.am files with `$(TIRPC_LIBS)`
when putting it into `lib/libspl/Makefile.am` should have sufficed. Upon
further examination, it seems that he had copied what we do with
`$(ZLIB)`. We also have a bit of that with `-ldl` too. Unfortunately,
what we do is wrong, so lets fix it to set a good example for future
contributors.
In addition, we have multiple `-lz` and `-luuid` passed to the compiler
because each `AC_CHECK_LIB` adds it to `$LIBS`. That is somewhat
annoying to see, so we switch to `AC_SEARCH_LIBS` to avoid it. This is
consistent with the recommendation to use `AC_SEARCH_LIBS` over
`AC_CHECK_LIB` by autotools upstream:
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.66/html_node/Libraries.html
In an ideal world, this would translate into improvements in ELF's
`DT_NEEDED` entries, but that is not the case because of a couple of
bugs in libtool.
The first bug causes libtool to overlink by using static link
dependencies for dynamic linking:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Overlinking_issues_in_packaging#libtool_issues
The workaround for this should be to pass `-Wl,--as-needed` in
`LDFLAGS`. That leads us to the second bug, where libtool passes
`LDFLAGS` after the libraries are specified and `ld` will only honor
`--as-needed` on libraries specified before it:
https://sigquit.wordpress.com/2011/02/16/why-asneeded-doesnt-work-as-expected-for-your-libraries-on-your-autotools-project/
There are a few possible workarounds for the second bug. One is to
either patch the compiler spec file to specify `-Wl,--as-needed` or pass
`-Wl,--as-needed` via `CC` like `CC='gcc -Wl,--as-needed'` so that it is
specified early. Another is to patch ltmain.sh like Gentoo does:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/eclass/ELT-patches/as-needed
Without one of those workarounds, this cleanup provides no benefit in
terms of `DT_NEEDED` entry generation. It should still be an improvement
because it nicely simplifies the code while encouraging good habits when
patching autotools scripts.

Add the ZFS Test Suite and test-runner framework from illumos.
This is a continuation of the work done by Turbo Fredriksson to
port the ZFS Test Suite to Linux. While this work was originally
conceived as a stand alone project integrating it directly with
the ZoL source tree has several advantages:
* Allows the ZFS Test Suite to be packaged in zfs-test package.
* Facilitates easy integration with the CI testing.
* Users can locally run the ZFS Test Suite to validate ZFS.
This testing should ONLY be done on a dedicated test system
because the ZFS Test Suite in its current form is destructive.
* Allows the ZFS Test Suite to be run directly in the ZoL source
tree enabled developers to iterate quickly during development.
* Developers can easily add/modify tests in the framework as
features are added or functionality is changed. The tests
will then always be in sync with the implementation.
Full documentation for how to run the ZFS Test Suite is available
in the tests/README.md file.
Warning: This test suite is designed to be run on a dedicated test
system. It will make modifications to the system including, but
not limited to, the following.
* Adding new users
* Adding new groups
* Modifying the following /proc files:
* /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
* /proc/sys/kernel/core_uses_pid
* Creating directories under /
Notes:
* Not all of the test cases are expected to pass and by default
these test cases are disabled. The failures are primarily due
to assumption made for illumos which are invalid under Linux.
* When updating these test cases it should be done in as generic
a way as possible so the patch can be submitted back upstream.
Most existing library functions have been updated to be Linux
aware, and the following functions and variables have been added.
* Functions:
* is_linux - Used to wrap a Linux specific section.
* block_device_wait - Waits for block devices to be added to /dev/.
* Variables: Linux Illumos
* ZVOL_DEVDIR "/dev/zvol" "/dev/zvol/dsk"
* ZVOL_RDEVDIR "/dev/zvol" "/dev/zvol/rdsk"
* DEV_DSKDIR "/dev" "/dev/dsk"
* DEV_RDSKDIR "/dev" "/dev/rdsk"
* NEWFS_DEFAULT_FS "ext2" "ufs"
* Many of the disabled test cases fail because 'zfs/zpool destroy'
returns EBUSY. This is largely causes by the asynchronous nature
of device handling on Linux and is expected, the impacted test
cases will need to be updated to handle this.
* There are several test cases which have been disabled because
they can trigger a deadlock. A primary example of this is to
recursively create zpools within zpools. These tests have been
disabled until the root issue can be addressed.
* Illumos specific utilities such as (mkfile) should be added to
the tests/zfs-tests/cmd/ directory. Custom programs required by
the test scripts can also be added here.
* SELinux should be either is permissive mode or disabled when
running the tests. The test cases should be updated to conform
to a standard policy.
* Redundant test functionality has been removed (zfault.sh).
* Existing test scripts (zconfig.sh) should be migrated to use
the framework for consistency and ease of testing.
* The DISKS environment variable currently only supports loopback
devices because of how the ZFS Test Suite expects partitions to
be named (p1, p2, etc). Support must be added to generate the
correct partition name based on the device location and name.
* The ZFS Test Suite is part of the illumos code base at:

In certain circumstances, "zfs send -i" (incremental send) can produce
a stream which will result in incorrect sparse file contents on the
target.
The problem manifests as regions of the received file that should be
sparse (and read a zero-filled) actually contain data from a file that
was deleted (and which happened to share this file's object ID).
Note: this can happen only with filesystems (not zvols, because they do
not free (and thus can not reuse) object IDs).
Note: This can happen only if, since the incremental source (FromSnap),
a file was deleted and then another file was created, and the new file
is sparse (i.e. has areas that were never written to and should be
implicitly zero-filled).
We suspect that this was introduced by 4370 (applies only if hole_birth
feature is enabled), and made worse by 5243 (applies if hole_birth
feature is disabled, and we never send any holes).
The bug is caused by the hole birth feature. When an object is deleted
and replaced, all the holes in the object have birth time zero. However,
zfs send cannot tell that the holes are new since the file was replaced,
so it doesn't send them in an incremental. As a result, you can end up
with invalid data when you receive incremental send streams. As a
short-term fix, we can always send holes with birth time 0 (unless it's
a zvol or a dataset where we can guarantee that no objects have been
reused).

When checking a whole disk to see if it can be safely added to
the pool a variety of checks are done. One of those checks is
to attempt to determine the partition information and scan all
the partitions for existing filesystems.
Since ZoL contains a EFI library this partition scanning is
easy to do for GPT partitioned disks. However, for non-GPT
partitioned disks (MBR/EBR) things are a bit harder. The lack of
a convenient library means non-GPT partitioned disks will not
have all their partitions checked. For this reason, the default
behavior was to require the force option. For example:
invalid vdev specification
use '-f' to override the following errors:
/dev/vdb does not contain an GPT label but it may contain partition
information in the MBR.
However in practice requiring the force option for this case is
counter-intuitively less safe. The reason is because only the first
error is returned. By passing the force option it will suppress
this first warning and potentially others you were not aware of.
Therefore this patch inverts the default behavior for non-GPT
formated disks (unformatted, MBR/EBR, etc). If no GPT table is
detected and there is no file system detected on the provided
block device. Then it will be assumed that block device is safe
to use.
Longer term it would be nice to see MBR/EBR scanning added to
the utilities. This should be fairly straight forward to do.
However these days it's somewhat less critical because Linux

zfsonlinux issue #3681 - lock order inversion between zvol_open() and
dsl_pool_sync()...zvol_rename_minors()
Remove trylock of spa_namespace_lock as it is no longer needed when
zvol minor operations are performed in a separate context with no
prior locking state; the spa_namespace_lock is no longer held
when bdev->bd_mutex or zfs_state_lock might be taken in the code
paths originating from the zvol minor operation callbacks.

zfsonlinux issue #3681 - lock order inversion between zvol_open()
and dsl_pool_sync()...zvol_rename_minors()
Create a per-pool zvol taskq for asynchronous zvol tasks.
There are a few key design decisions to be aware of.
* Each taskq must be single threaded to ensure tasks are always
processed in the order in which they were dispatched.
* There is a taskq per-pool in order to keep the pools independent.
This way if one pool is suspended it will not impact another.
* The preferred location to dispatch a zvol minor task is a sync
task. In this context there is easy access to the spa_t and
minimal error handling is required because the sync task must
succeed.
Support for asynchronous zvol minor operations address issue #3681.

ZFS on Linux is regularly tested on arm, ppc, ppc64, i686 and x86_64
architectures. Given this the artificial architecture restriction in
the packaging has been removed.

Since they both evaluate to zero, this is a semi-cosmetic change
but the latter is the proper value to use as an argument to
taskq_dispatch_delay().

Historically libblkid support was detected as part of configure
and optionally enabled. This was done because at the time support
for detecting ZFS pool vdevs had just be added to libblkid and
those updated packages were not yet part of many distributions.
This is no longer the case and any reasonably current distribution
will ship a version of libblkid which can detect ZFS pool vdevs.
This patch makes libblkid mandatory at build time and libblkid
the preferred method of scanning for ZFS pools. For distributions
which include a modern version of libblkid there is no change in
behavior. Explicitly scanning the default search paths is still
supported and can be enabled with the '-s' command line option.
Additionally making libblkid mandatory means that the 'zpool create'
command can reliably detect if a specified device has an existing
non-ZFS filesystem (ext4, xfs) and print a warning.
