Rewrite the ZFS prefetch code to detect only forward, sequential
streams.
The following kstats have been added:
kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.sync_wait_for_async
How many sync reads have waited for async read
to complete. (less is better)
kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.demand_hit_predictive_prefetch
How many demand read didn't have to wait for I/O
because of predictive prefetch. (more is better)
zfetch kstats have been similified to hits, misses, and max_streams,
with max_streams representing times when we were not able to create
new stream because we already have the maximum number of sequences
for a file.
The sysctl variable/loader tunable vfs.zfs.zfetch.block_cap have been
replaced by vfs.zfs.zfetch.max_distance, which controls maximum bytes
to prefetch per stream.

we would like to expose the number of hole (sparse) blocks in a file.
this can be useful to for example if you want to fill in the holes with
some data; knowing the number of holes in advances allows you to report
progress on hole filling. We could use SEEK_HOLE to do that but it would
be O(n) where n is the number of holes present in the file.

While running 'zfs recv' we noticed that every 128th 8K block required a
read. We were seeing that restore_write() was calling dmu_tx_hold_write()
and the indirect block was not cached. We should prefetch upcoming indirect
blocks to avoid having to go to disk and blocking the restore_write().
Allow an incremental send stream to be received as a clone, even if the
stream does not mark it as a clone.
illumos/illumos-gate@70163ac57ehttps://www.illumos.org/issues/5695
In dmu_sync_ready(), a hole block pointer will have it's logical size
explicitly set as it's necessary for replay purposes. To "undo" this,
dmu_sync_done() will zero out any hole that it finds. This becomes a
problem when using the "hole_birth" feature, as this will also wipe out
any birth time that might have happened to be set on the hole.
...
As a fix, the logic to zero out a hole is only applied to old style
holes with a birth time of zero. Holes created with the "hole_birth"
feature enabled will have a non-zero birth time, and will be skipped
(thus preserving the ltime, type, and level information as well).
In addition, zdb was updated to also print the ltime, type, and level
information for these new style holes. Previously, only the logical
birth time would be printed.

These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)
truss: can not get etype: Cannot allocate memory
there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

Add a new zfs property, "redundant_metadata" which can have values "all" or
"most". The default will be "all", which is the current behavior. When set
to all, ZFS stores an extra copy of all metadata. If a single on-disk block
is corrupt, at worst a single block of user data (which is recordsize bytes
long) can be lost.
Setting to "most" will cause us to only store 1 copy of level-1 indirect
blocks of user data files. This can improve performance of random writes,
because less metadata has to be written. In practice, at worst about
100 blocks (of recordsize bytes each) of user data can be lost if a single
on-disk block is corrupt.
The exact behavior of which metadata blocks are stored redundantly may change
in future releases.

This is based on a fix that went in to opensolaris on March 9th. However, it uses a dedicated
thread instead of a Solaris' taskq to avoid doing a blocking memory allocation with the vnode
interlock held.
This fixes a long-time deadlock in ZFS. This is not, strictly speaking, an LOR. The spa_zio
thread releases a vnode, this calls in to vn_reclaim which in turn needs to acquire range locks
to sync dirty data out to disk. The range locks are already held by a user-level process waiting
on a condition variable that it the process is waiting on a spa_zio thread to signal it on. The
process could not be signalled because the spa_zio thread could not proceed.
The nature of this problem was not apparent due to ZFS locks opting out of witness which meant
that DDB did not know about the locks that were held by ZFS.

This bring huge amount of changes, I'll enumerate only user-visible changes:
- Delegated Administration
Allows regular users to perform ZFS operations, like file system
creation, snapshot creation, etc.
- L2ARC
Level 2 cache for ZFS - allows to use additional disks for cache.
Huge performance improvements mostly for random read of mostly
static content.
- slog
Allow to use additional disks for ZFS Intent Log to speed up
operations like fsync(2).
- vfs.zfs.super_owner
Allows regular users to perform privileged operations on files stored
on ZFS file systems owned by him. Very careful with this one.
- chflags(2)
Not all the flags are supported. This still needs work.
- ZFSBoot
Support to boot off of ZFS pool. Not finished, AFAIK.

- Snapshot properties
- New failure modes
Before if write requested failed, system paniced. Now one
can select from one of three failure modes:
- panic - panic on write error
- wait - wait for disk to reappear
- continue - serve read requests if possible, block write requests
- Refquota, refreservation properties
Just quota and reservation properties, but don't count space consumed
by children file systems, clones and snapshots.
- Sparse volumes
ZVOLs that don't reserve space in the pool.
- External attributes
Compatible with extattr(2).
- NFSv4-ACLs
Not sure about the status, might not be complete yet.

- Creation-time properties
- Regression tests for zpool(8) command.
Obtained from: OpenSolaris
ZFS file system was ported from OpenSolaris operating system. The code in under
CDDL license.
I'd like to thank all SUN developers that created this great piece of software.
