When write I/Os are issued, they are issued in block order but the ZIO pipelin
e
will drive them asynchronously through the allocation stage which can result i
n
blocks being allocated out-of-order. It would be nice to preserve as much of
the logical order as possible.
In addition, the allocations are equally scattered across all top-level VDEVs
but not all top-level VDEVs are created equally. The pipeline should be able t
o
detect devices that are more capable of handling allocations and should
allocate more blocks to those devices. This allows for dynamic allocation
distribution when devices are imbalanced as fuller devices will tend to be
slower than empty devices.
The change includes a new pool-wide allocation queue which would throttle and
order allocations in the ZIO pipeline. The queue would be ordered by issued
time and offset and would provide an initial amount of allocation of work to
each top-level vdev. The allocation logic utilizes a reservation system to
reserve allocations that will be performed by the allocator. Once an allocatio
n
is successfully completed it's scheduled on a given top-level vdev. Each top-
level vdev maintains a maximum number of allocations that it can handle
(mg_alloc_queue_depth). The pool-wide reserved allocations (top-levels *
mg_alloc_queue_depth) are distributed across the top-level vdevs metaslab
groups and round robin across all eligible metaslab groups to distribute the
work. As top-levels complete their work, they receive additional work from the
pool-wide allocation queue until the allocation queue is emptied.

When reading compressed data from disk, the ARC should keep the compressed
block cached and only decompress it when consumers access the block. The
uncompressed data should be short-lived allowing the ARC to cache a much larger
amount of data. The DMU would also maintain a smaller cache of uncompressed
blocks to minimize the impact of decompressing frequently accessed blocks.

This is primarily for developer/debugging use; it enables built-in tagged
tracking of refcounts inside ZFS. It can only be enabled from the loader,
since it modifies how in-core state is managed. Default remains disabled.
MFC after: 1 week
Sponsored by: Spectra Logic
Few new things available from now on:
- Data deduplication.
- Triple parity RAIDZ (RAIDZ3).
- zfs diff.
- zpool split.
- Snapshot holds.
- zpool import -F. Allows to rewind corrupted pool to earlier
transaction group.
- Possibility to import pool in read-only mode.
MFC after: 1 month
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.
Submitted by: trasz
- 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.
