6ecfd2b553 Add __divmoddi4 and __udivmoddi4 for 32-bit arch
gcc-7 seems to use __udivmoddi4 for 64-bit division on 32-bit arch. This
patch implement them so we don't get undefined reference error.

410f7ab594 Module parameter to enable spl_panic() to panic the kernel
In unattended operations it's often more useful to have node
panic and reboot when it encounters problems as opposed to
sit there indefinitely waiting for somebody to discover it.

This implements an spl_panic_crash module parameter, set it
to nonzero to cause spl_panic() to call panic().

cd47801828 Avoid WARN() from procfs on kstat collision
When we load a ZFS pool having spa_name equals to some existing kstat
we would have to create a duplicate entry, which procfs doesn't like.

For instance a ZFS pool named "zil" would have its kstat "txgs"
(module "zfs/zil") intalled under "/proc/spl/kstat/zfs/zil":
unfortunately we already have a kstat named "zil" (module "zfs")
installed in the same procfs location.

Avoid this issue by skipping the duplicate entry creation in procfs.

c93d9dff36 Don't cache the system hostid
Historically the SPL cached the system hostid the first time it
was accessed.  This was done to speed up subsequent accesses.
But in practice the system host id is rarely accessed and its
inconvenient that it doesn't promptly detect /etc/hostid
configuration changes.  Therefore, zone_get_hostid() has been
updated to always refresh the system hostid reported.

bf8abea4da Linux 4.11 compat: remove stub for __put_task_struct
Before kernel 2.6.29 credentials were embedded in task_structs, and zfs had
cases where one thread would need to refer to the credential of another thread,
forcing it to take a hold on the foreign thread's task_struct to ensure it was
not freed.

Since 2.6.29, the credential has been moved out of the task_struct into a
cred_t.

In addition, the mainline kernel originally did not export __put_task_struct()
but the RHEL5 kernel did, according to zfsonlinux/spl@e811949a57.  As of
2.6.39 the mainline kernel exports it.

There is no longer zfs code that takes or releases holds on a task_struct, and
so there is no longer any reference to __put_task_struct().

This affects the linux 4.11 kernel because the prototype for
__put_task_struct() is in a new include file (linux/sched/task.h) and so the
config check failed to detect the exported symbol.

Removing the unnecessary stub and corresponding config check.  This works on
kernels since the oldest one currently supported, 2.6.32 as shipped with
Centos/RHEL.

94b1ab2ae0 Linux 4.11 compat: vfs_getattr() takes 4 args
There are changes to vfs_getattr() in torvalds/linux@a528d35.  The new
interface is:

int vfs_getattr(const struct path *path, struct kstat *stat,
               u32 request_mask, unsigned int query_flags)

The request_mask argument indicates which field(s) the caller intends to
use.  Fields the caller does not specify via request_mask may be set in
the returned struct anyway, but their values may be approximate.

The query_flags argument indicates whether the filesystem must update
the attributes from the backing store.

This patch uses the query_flags which result in vfs_getattr behaving the same
as it did with the 2-argument version which the kernel provided before
Linux 4.11.

Members blksize and blocks are now always the same size regardless of
arch.  They match the size of the equivalent members in vnode_t.

The configure checks are modified to ensure that the appropriate
vfs_getattr() interface is used.

A more complete fix, removing the ZFS dependency on vfs_getattr()
entirely, is deferred as it is a much larger project.

8d5feecacf Linux 4.11 compat: set_task_state() removed
Replace uses of set_task_state(current, STATE) with
set_current_state(STATE).

In Linux 4.11, torvalds/linux@642fa44, set_task_state() is removed.

All spl uses are of the form set_task_state(current, STATE).
set_current_state(STATE) is equivalent and has been available since
Linux 2.2.26.

Furthermore, set_current_state(STATE) is already used in about 15
locations within spl.  This change should have no impact other than
removing an unnecessary dependency.

rt_mutex_owner is internal to kernel/locking/rtmutex_common.h and

8e99d66b05 Add support for rw semaphore under PREEMPT_RT_FULL
The main complication from the RT patch set is that the RW semaphore
locks change such that read locks on an rwsem can be taken only by
a single thread.  All other threads are locked out. This single
thread can take a read lock multiple times though. The underlying
implementation changes to a mutex with an additional read_depth
count.

The implementation can be best understood by inspecting the RT
patch.  rwsem_rt.h and rt.c give the best insight into how RT
rwsem works. My implementation for rwsem_tryupgrade is basically
an inversion of rt_downgrade_write found in rt.c. Please see the
comments in the code.

Unfortunately, I have to drop SPLAT rwlock test4 completely as this
test tries to take multiple locks from different threads, which RT
rwsems do not support.  Otherwise SPLAT, zconfig.sh, zpios-sanity.sh
and zfs-tests.sh pass on my Debian-testing VM with the kernel
linux-image-4.8.0-1-rt-amd64.

  2) Memory allocated with vmem_alloc() is short lived and can be ignored.
  3) Allow a 4MB floor as a generous pad given normal consumption.

9ba3c01923 Fix crgetgroups out-of-bound and misc cred fix
init_groups has 0 nblocks, therefore calling the current crgetgroups with

Cap crgetngroups to NGROUPS_PER_BLOCK, since crgetgroups will only return

Also, remove all get_group_info. The cred already holds reference on the
group_info, and cred is not mutable. So there's no reason to hold extra
reference, if we hold cred.

cb81c0c588 Increase spl_kmem_alloc_warn limit
In order to support ABD with large blocks the spl_kmem_alloc_warn
limit needs to be increased to 64K.

header to this structure pushes the allocation over the default
32K warning threshold.

In addition, fix a small bug where MAX was used instead of MIN
when setting the default.  This ensures a reasonable limit is
still set on systems with page sizes larger then 4K.

When a TQ_NOQUEUE dispatch is done on a dynamic taskq, allow another
thread to be spawned.  This will cause TQ_NOQUEUE to behave similarly
as it does with non-dynamic taskqs.

Add support for TQ_NOQUEUE to taskq_dispatch_ent().

a6ae97caed Add rw_tryupgrade()
This implementation of rw_tryupgrade() behaves slightly differently
from its counterparts on other platforms.  It drops the RW_READER lock
and then acquires the RW_WRITER lock leaving a small window where no
lock is held.  On other platforms the lock is never released during
the upgrade process.  This is necessary under Linux because the kernel
does not provide an upgrade function.

There are currently no callers in the ZFS code where this change in
behavior is a problem.  In fact, in most cases the code is already
written such that if the upgrade fails the RW_READER lock is dropped
and the caller blocks waiting to acquire the lock as RW_WRITER.

0b43696e66 random_get_pseudo_bytes() need not provide cryptographic strength entropy
Perf profiling of dd on a zvol revealed that my system spent 3.16% of
its time in random_get_pseudo_bytes(). No SPL consumers need
cryptographic strength entropy, so we can reduce our overhead by
changing the implementation to utilize a fast PRNG.

The Linux kernel did not export a suitable PRNG function until it
exported get_random_int() in Linux 3.10. While we could implement an
autotools check so that we use it when it is available or even try to
access the symbol on older kernels where it is not exported using the
fact that it is exported on newer ones as justification, we can instead
implement our own pseudo-random data generator. For this purpose, I have
written one based on a 128-bit pseudo-random number generator proposed
in a paper by Sebastiano Vigna that itself was based on work by the late
George Marsaglia.

http://vigna.di.unimi.it/ftp/papers/xorshiftplus.pdf

Profiling the same benchmark with an earlier variant of this patch that
used a slightly different generator (roughly same number of
instructions) by the same author showed that time spent in
random_get_pseudo_bytes() dropped to 0.06%. That is a factor of 50
improvement. This particular generator algorithm is also well known to
be fast:

http://xorshift.di.unimi.it/#speed

The benchmark numbers there state that it runs at 1.12ns/64-bits or 7.14
GBps of throughput on an Intel Core i7-4770 in what is presumably a
single-threaded context. Using it in `random_get_pseudo_bytes()` in the
manner I have will probably not reach that level of performance, but it
should be fairly high and many times higher than the Linux
`get_random_bytes()` function that we use now, which runs at 16.3 MB/s
on my Intel Xeon E3-1276v3 processor when measured by using dd on
/dev/urandom.

Also, putting this generator's seed into per-CPU variables allows us to
eliminate overhead from both spin locks and CPU memory barriers, which
is NUMA friendly.

We could have alternatively modified consumers to use something like
`gethrtime() % 3` as suggested by both Matthew Ahrens and Tim Chase, but
that has a few potential problems that this approach avoids:

1. Switching to `gethrtime() % 3` in hot code paths today requires
diverging from illumos-gate and does nothing about potential future
patches from illumos-gate that call our slow `random_get_pseudo_bytes()`
in different hot code paths. Reimplementing `random_get_pseudo_bytes()`
with a per-CPU PRNG avoids both of those things entirely, which means
less work for us in the future.

2.  Looking at the code that implements `gethrtime()`, I think it is
unlikely to be faster than this per-CPU PRNG implementation of
`random_get_pseudo_bytes()`. It would be best to go with something fast
now so that there is no point in revisiting this from a performance
perspective.

3. `gethrtime() % 3` can vary in behavior from system to system based on
kernel version, architecture and clock source. In comparison, this
per-CPU PRNG is about ~40 lines of code in `random_get_pseudo_bytes()`
that should behave consistently across all systems regardless of kernel
version, system architecture or machine clock source. It is unlikely
that we would ever need to revisit this per-CPU PRNG while the same
cannot be said for `gethrtime() % 3`.

4. `gethrtime()` uses CPU memory barriers and maybe atomic instructions
depending on the clock source, so replacing `random_get_pseudo_bytes()`
with `gethrtime()` in hot code paths could still require a future person
working on NUMA scalability to reimplement it anyway while this per-CPU
PRNG would not by virtue of using neither CPU memory barriers nor atomic
instructions. Note that I did not check various clock sources for the
presence of atomic instructions. There is simply too much code to read
and given the drawbacks versus this per-cpu PRNG, there is no point in
being certain.

5. I have heard of instances where poor quality pseudo-random numbers
caused problems for HPC code in ways that took more than a year to
identify and were remedied by switching to a higher quality source of
pseudo-random numbers. While filesystems are different than HPC code, I
do not think it is impossible for us to have instances where poor
quality pseudo-random numbers can cause problems. Opting for a well
studied PRNG algorithm that passes tests for statistical randomness over
changing callers to use `gethrtime() % 3` bypasses the need to think
about both whether poor quality pseudo-random numbers can cause problems
and the statistical quality of numbers from `gethrtime() % 3`.

6. `gethrtime()` calls `getrawmonotonic()`, which uses seqlocks. This is
probably not a huge issue, but anyone using kgdb would never be able to
step through a seqlock critical section, which is not a problem either
now or with the per-CPU PRNG:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seqlock

The only downside that I can see is that this code's memory requirement
is O(N) where N is NR_CPUS, versus the current code and `gethrtime() %
3`, which are O(1), but that should not be a problem. The seeds will use
64KB of memory at the high end (i.e `NR_CPU == 4096`) and 16 bytes of
memory at the low end (i.e. `NR_CPU == 1`).  In either case, we should
only use a few hundred bytes of code for text, especially since
`spl_rand_jump()` should be inlined into `spl_random_init()`, which
should be removed during early boot as part of "Freeing unused kernel
memory". In either case, the memory requirements are minuscule.

e843553d03 Don't hold mutex until release cv in cv_wait
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.

b4ad50ac5f Use spl_fstrans_mark instead of memalloc_noio_save
For earlier versions of the kernel with memalloc_noio_save, it only turns
off __GFP_IO but leaves __GFP_FS untouched during direct reclaim. This
would cause threads to direct reclaim into ZFS and cause deadlock.

Instead, we should stick to using spl_fstrans_mark. Since we would
explicitly turn off both __GFP_IO and __GFP_FS before allocation, it
will work on every version of the kernel.

This impacts kernel versions 3.9-3.17, see upstream kernel commit
torvalds/linux@934f307 for reference.

200366f23f Provide kstat for taskqs
This patch provides 2 new kstats to display task queues:

  /proc/spl/taskqs-all - Display all task queues
  /proc/spl/taskqs - Display only "active" task queues

A task queue is considered to be "active" if it currently has active
(running) threads or if any of its pending, priority, delay or waitq
lists are not empty.

If the task queue has running threads, displays each thread function's
address (symbolically, if possibly) and its argument.

If the task queue has a non-empty list of pending, priority or delayed
task queue entries (taskq_ent_t), displays each entry's thread function
address and arguemnt.

If the task queue has any waiters, displays each waiting task's pid.

Note: This patch also updates some comments in taskq.h which referred to
"taskq_t" when they should have referred to "taskq_ent_t".

326172d854 Subclass tq_lock to eliminate a lockdep warning
When taskq_dispatch() calls taskq_thread_spawn() to create a new thread
for a taskq, linux lockdep warns of possible recursive locking.  This is
a false positive.

One such call chain is as follows, when a taskq needs more threads:
	taskq_dispatch->taskq_thread_spawn->taskq_dispatch

The initial taskq_dispatch() holds tq_lock on the taskq that needed more
worker threads.  The later call into taskq_dispatch() takes
dynamic_taskq->tq_lock.  Without subclassing, lockdep believes these
could potentially be the same lock and complains.  A similar case occurs
when taskq_dispatch() then calls task_alloc().

This patch uses spin_lock_irqsave_nested() when taking tq_lock, with one
of two new lock subclasses:

subclass              taskq
TQ_LOCK_DYNAMIC       dynamic_taskq
TQ_LOCK_GENERAL       any other

a430c11f0b Make taskq_member() use ->journal_info
The ->journal_info pointer in the task_struct is reserved for use by
filesystems and because the kernel can have multiple file systems on the
same stack due to direct reclaim, each filesystem that touches
->journal_info in a callback function will save the value at the start
of its frame and restore it at the end of its frame.  This allows us to
safely use ->journal_info to store a pointer to the taskq's struct in
taskq threads so that ZFS code paths can detect the presence of a taskq.
This could break if the ZFS code were to use taskq_member from the
context of direct reclaim. However, there are no such uses of it in that
manner, so this is safe.

This eliminates an O(N) list traversal under a spinlock with an O(1)
unlocked pointer comparison.
