Description from Matt Ahrens's bug report at Delphix:
Add a new zfs property, "redundant_metadata" which can have values
"all" or "most". The default will be "all", which is the current
behavior. Setting to "most" will cause us to only store 1 copy of
level-1 indirect blocks of user data files.
Additional notes:
The new man page section for this property states
"The exact behavior of which metadata blocks
are stored redundantly may change in future releases."
and:
"When set to most, ZFS stores an extra copy of most types of
metadata. This can improve performance of random writes,
because less metadata must be written."
The current implementation is as described above in Matt's blog.
It is controlled by a new global integer
"zfs_redundant_metadata_most_ditto_level", currently initialized
to 2. When "redundant_metadata" is set to "most", only indirect
blocks of the specified level and higher will have additional ditto
blocks created.

Prior to this patch, space_maps were preferred solely based on the
amount of free space left in each. Unfortunately, this heuristic didn't
contain any information about the make-up of that free space, which
meant we could keep preferring and loading a highly fragmented space map
that wouldn't actually have enough contiguous space to satisfy the
allocation; then unloading that space_map and repeating the process.
This change modifies the space_map's to store additional information
about the contiguous space in the space_map, so that we can use this
information to make a better decision about which space_map to load.
This requires reallocating all space_map objects to increase their
bonus buffer size sizes enough to fit the new metadata.
The above feature can be enabled via a new feature flag introduced by
this change: com.delphix:spacemap_histogram
In addition to the above, this patch allows the space_map block size to
be increase. Currently the block size is set to be 4K in size, which has
certain implications including the following:
* 4K sector devices will not see any compression benefit
* large space_maps require more metadata on-disk
* large space_maps require more time to load (typically random reads)
Now the space_map block size can adjust as needed up to the maximum size
set via the space_map_max_blksz variable.
A bug was fixed which resulted in potentially leaking an object when
removing a mirrored log device. The previous logic for vdev_remove() did
not deal with removing top-level vdevs that are interior vdevs (i.e.
mirror) correctly. The problem would occur when removing a mirrored log
device, and result in the DTL space map object being leaked; because
top-level vdevs don't have DTL space map objects associated with them.

zed monitors ZFS events. When a zevent is posted, zed will run any
scripts that have been enabled for the corresponding zevent class.
Multiple scripts may be invoked for a given zevent. The zevent
nvpairs are passed to the scripts as environment variables.
Events are processed synchronously by the single thread, and there is
no maximum timeout for script execution. Consequently, a misbehaving
script can delay (or forever block) the processing of subsequent
zevents. Plans are to address this in future commits.
Initial scripts have been developed to log events to syslog
and send email in response to checksum/data/io errors and
resilver.finish/scrub.finish events. By default, email will only
be sent if the ZED_EMAIL variable is configured in zed.rc (which is

Issue #2
Originally, users had to handle spa namespace collisions by either
exporting the already imported pool or by specifying a new name for the
pool with a conflicting name. In the case of root pools from virtual
guests, neither approach to collision resolution is reasonable. This is
addressed by extending the new name syntax with a -t option to specify
that the new name is temporary. When specified, this sets an internal
flag that is passed into the kernel to tell it that all label updates
should refer to the name used in the original label. Consequently, the
original pool name will be retained on export.

Issue #2110
Setting a limit on the minimum value of "arc_p" has been shown to have
detrimental effects on the arc hit rate for certain "metadata" intensive
workloads. Specifically, this has been exhibited with a workload that
constantly dirties new "metadata" but also frequently touches a "small"
amount of mfu data (e.g. mkdir's).
What is seen is that the new anon data throttles the mfu list to a
negligible size (because arc_p > anon + mru in arc_get_data_buf), even
though the mfu ghost list receives a constant stream of hits. To remedy
this, arc_p is now allowed to drop to zero if the algorithm deems it
necessary.

Issue #2110
For specific workloads consisting mainly of mfu data and new anon data
buffers, the aggressive growth of arc_p found in the arc_get_data_buf()
function can have detrimental effects on the mfu list size and ghost
list hit rate.
Running a workload consisting of two processes:
* Process 1 is creating many small files
* Process 2 is tar'ing a directory consisting of many small files
I've seen arc_p and the mru grow to their maximum size, while the mru
ghost list receives 100K times fewer hits than the mfu ghost list.
Ideally, as the mfu ghost list receives hits, arc_p should be driven
down and the size of the mfu should increase. Given the specific
workload I was testing with, the mfu list size should grow to a point
where almost no mfu ghost list hits would occur. Unfortunately, this
does not happen because the newly dirtied anon buffers constancy drive
arc_p to its maximum value and keep it there (effectively prioritizing
the mru list and starving the mfu list down to a negligible size).
The logic to increment arc_p from within the arc_get_data_buf() function
was introduced many years ago in this upstream commit:

disabled that code by default, but left it tunable via a module option.
Thus, if its removal is found to be grossly detrimental for certain
workloads, it can be re-enabled on the fly, without a code change.

The vdev_id udev helper currently applies slot renumbering rules to
every channel (JBOD) in the system. This is too inflexible for systems
with non-homogeneous storage topologies. The "slot" keyword now takes
an optional third parameter which names a channel to which the mapping
will apply. If the third parameter is omitted then the rule applies to
all channels. The first-specified rule that can match a slot takes
precedence. Therefore a channel-specific rule for a given slot should
generally appear before a generic rule for the same slot number. In
this way a custom slot mapping can be applied to a particular channel
and a default mapping applied to the rest.

Four new dataset properties have been added to support SELinux. They
are 'context', 'fscontext', 'defcontext' and 'rootcontext' which map
directly to the context options described in mount(8). When one of
these properties is set to something other than 'none'. That string
will be passed verbatim as a mount option for the given context when
the filesystem is mounted.
For example, if you wanted the rootcontext for a filesystem to be set
to 'system_u:object_r:fs_t' you would set the property as follows:
$ zfs set rootcontext="system_u:object_r:fs_t" storage-pool/media
This will ensure the filesystem is automatically mounted with that
rootcontext. It is equivalent to manually specifying the rootcontext
with the -o option like this:
$ zfs mount -o rootcontext=system_u:object_r:fs_t storage-pool/media
By default all four contexts are set to 'none'. Further information
on SELinux contexts is detailed in mount(8) and selinux(8) man pages.

4045 zfs write throttle & i/o scheduler performance work
1. The ZFS i/o scheduler (vdev_queue.c) now divides i/os into 5 classes: sync
read, sync write, async read, async write, and scrub/resilver. The scheduler
issues a number of concurrent i/os from each class to the device. Once a class
has been selected, an i/o is selected from this class using either an elevator
algorithem (async, scrub classes) or FIFO (sync classes). The number of
concurrent async write i/os is tuned dynamically based on i/o load, to achieve
good sync i/o latency when there is not a high load of writes, and good write
throughput when there is. See the block comment in vdev_queue.c (reproduced
below) for more details.
2. The write throttle (dsl_pool_tempreserve_space() and
txg_constrain_throughput()) is rewritten to produce much more consistent delays
when under constant load. The new write throttle is based on the amount of
dirty data, rather than guesses about future performance of the system. When
there is a lot of dirty data, each transaction (e.g. write() syscall) will be
delayed by the same small amount. This eliminates the "brick wall of wait"
that the old write throttle could hit, causing all transactions to wait several
seconds until the next txg opens. One of the keys to the new write throttle is
decrementing the amount of dirty data as i/o completes, rather than at the end
of spa_sync(). Note that the write throttle is only applied once the i/o
scheduler is issuing the maximum number of outstanding async writes. See the
block comments in dsl_pool.c and above dmu_tx_delay() (reproduced below) for
more details.
This diff has several other effects, including:
* the commonly-tuned global variable zfs_vdev_max_pending has been removed;
use per-class zfs_vdev_*_max_active values or zfs_vdev_max_active instead.
* the size of each txg (meaning the amount of dirty data written, and thus the
time it takes to write out) is now controlled differently. There is no longer
an explicit time goal; the primary determinant is amount of dirty data.
Systems that are under light or medium load will now often see that a txg is
always syncing, but the impact to performance (e.g. read latency) is minimal.
Tune zfs_dirty_data_max and zfs_dirty_data_sync to control this.
* zio_taskq_batch_pct = 75 -- Only use 75% of all CPUs for compression,

APPENDIX: problems with the current i/o scheduler
The current ZFS i/o scheduler (vdev_queue.c) is deadline based. The problem
with this is that if there are always i/os pending, then certain classes of
i/os can see very long delays.
For example, if there are always synchronous reads outstanding, then no async
writes will be serviced until they become "past due". One symptom of this
situation is that each pass of the txg sync takes at least several seconds
(typically 3 seconds).
If many i/os become "past due" (their deadline is in the past), then we must
service all of these overdue i/os before any new i/os. This happens when we
enqueue a batch of async writes for the txg sync, with deadlines 2.5 seconds in
the future. If we can't complete all the i/os in 2.5 seconds (e.g. because
there were always reads pending), then these i/os will become past due. Now we
must service all the "async" writes (which could be hundreds of megabytes)
before we service any reads, introducing considerable latency to synchronous
i/os (reads or ZIL writes).
Notes on porting to ZFS on Linux:
- zio_t gained new members io_physdone and io_phys_children. Because
object caches in the Linux port call the constructor only once at
allocation time, objects may contain residual data when retrieved
from the cache. Therefore zio_create() was updated to zero out the two
new fields.
- vdev_mirror_pending() relied on the depth of the per-vdev pending queue
(vq->vq_pending_tree) to select the least-busy leaf vdev to read from.
This tree has been replaced by vq->vq_active_tree which is now used
for the same purpose.
- vdev_queue_init() used the value of zfs_vdev_max_pending to determine
the number of vdev I/O buffers to pre-allocate. That global no longer
exists, so we instead use the sum of the *_max_active values for each of
the five I/O classes described above.
- The Illumos implementation of dmu_tx_delay() delays a transaction by
sleeping in condition variable embedded in the thread
(curthread->t_delay_cv). We do not have an equivalent CV to use in
Linux, so this change replaced the delay logic with a wrapper called
zfs_sleep_until(). This wrapper could be adopted upstream and in other
downstream ports to abstract away operating system-specific delay logic.
- These tunables are added as module parameters, and descriptions added
to the zfs-module-parameters.5 man page.

The latter four have type unsigned long, whereas they are uint64_t in
Illumos. This accommodates Linux's module_param() supported types, but
means they may overflow on 32-bit architectures.
The values zfs_dirty_data_max and zfs_dirty_data_max_max are the most
likely to overflow on 32-bit systems, since they express physical RAM
sizes in bytes. In fact, Illumos initializes zfs_dirty_data_max_max to
2^32 which does overflow. To resolve that, this port instead initializes
it in arc_init() to 25% of physical RAM, and adds the tunable
zfs_dirty_data_max_max_percent to override that percentage. While this
solution doesn't completely avoid the overflow issue, it should be a
reasonable default for most systems, and the minority of affected
systems can work around the issue by overriding the defaults.
- Fixed reversed logic in comment above zfs_delay_scale declaration.
- Clarified comments in vdev_queue.c regarding when per-queue minimums take
effect.
- Replaced dmu_tx_write_limit in the dmu_tx kstat file
with dmu_tx_dirty_delay and dmu_tx_dirty_over_max. The first counts
how many times a transaction has been delayed because the pool dirty
data has exceeded zfs_delay_min_dirty_percent. The latter counts how
many times the pool dirty data has exceeded zfs_dirty_data_max (which
we expect to never happen).
- The original patch would have regressed the bug fixed in
zfsonlinux/zfs@c418410, which prevented users from setting the
zfs_vdev_aggregation_limit tuning larger than SPA_MAXBLOCKSIZE.
A similar fix is added to vdev_queue_aggregate().
- In vdev_queue_io_to_issue(), dynamically allocate 'zio_t search' on the
heap instead of the stack. In Linux we can't afford such large
structures on the stack.

Cstyle is the C source style checker used by Illumos. Since the
original ZFS source was written using these style guidelines they
must also be followed by ZoL for consistency.
The checker has been added to the scripts directory and may be
run on a per file basis. New patches should be careful to avoid
introducing new style warnings.
Additionally, the 'checkstyle' target has been added to the top
level Makefile and can be used to check the entire source tree.
While Zol has historically attempted to follow the SunOS style
guide the lack of a rigorous style checker has allowed various
warning to be introduced. Currently there are 2211 reported
style violations and we want to gradually eliminate these from
the tree.
Note the cstyle.1 man page is provided under man/man1/cstyle.1

This change adds support for Posix ACLs by storing them as an xattr
which is common practice for many Linux file systems. Since the
Posix ACL is stored as an xattr it will not overwrite any existing
ZFS/NFSv4 ACLs which may have been set. The Posix ACL will also
be non-functional on other platforms although it may be visible
as an xattr if that platform understands SA based xattrs.
By default Posix ACLs are disabled but they may be enabled with
the new 'aclmode=noacl|posixacl' property. Set the property to
'posixacl' to enable them. If ZFS/NFSv4 ACL support is ever added
an appropriate acltype will be added.
This change passes the POSIX Test Suite cleanly with the exception
of xacl/00.t test 45 which is incorrect for Linux (Ext4 fails too).

The vdev_file.c implementation in this patch diverges significantly
from the upstream version. For consistenty with the vdev_disk.c
code the upstream version leverages the Illumos bio interfaces.
This makes sense for Illumos but not for ZoL for two reasons.
1) The vdev_disk.c code in ZoL has been rewritten to use the
Linux block device interfaces which differ significantly
from those in Illumos. Therefore, updating the vdev_file.c
to use the Illumos interfaces doesn't get you consistency
with vdev_disk.c.
2) Using the upstream patch as is would requiring implementing
compatibility code for those Solaris block device interfaces
in user and kernel space. That additional complexity could
lead to confusion and doesn't buy us anything.
For these reasons I've opted to simply move the existing vn_rdwr()
as is in to the taskq function. This has the advantage of being
low risk and easy to understand. Moving the vn_rdwr() function
in to its own taskq thread also neatly avoids the possibility of
a stack overflow.
Finally, because of the additional work which is being handled by
the free taskq the number of threads has been increased. The
thread count under Illumos defaults to 100 but was decreased to 2
in commit 08d08e due to contention. We increase it to 8 until
the contention can be address by porting Illumos #3581.

The new snapdev dataset property may be set to control the
visibility of zvol snapshot devices. By default this value
is set to 'hidden' which will prevent zvol snapshots from
appearing under /dev/zvol/ and /dev/<dataset>/. When set to
'visible' all zvol snapshots for the dataset will be visible.
This functionality was largely added because when automatic
snapshoting is enabled large numbers of read-only zvol snapshots
will be created. When creating these devices the kernel will
attempt to read their partition tables, and blkid will attempt
to identify any filesystems on those partitions. This leads
to a variety of issues:
1) The zvol partition tables will be read in the context of
the `modprobe zfs` for automatically imported pools. This
is undesirable and should be done asynchronously, but for
now reducing the number of visible devices helps.
2) Udev expects to be able to complete its work for a new
block devices fairly quickly. When many zvol devices are
added at the same time this is no longer be true. It can
lead to udev timeouts and missing /dev/zvol links.
3) Simply having lots of devices in /dev/ can be aukward from
a management standpoint. Hidding the devices your unlikely
to ever use helps with this. Any snapshot device which is
needed can be made visible by changing the snapdev property.
NOTE: This patch changes the default behavior for zvols which
was effectively 'snapdev=visible'.

Add a vdev_id feature to map device names based on already defined
udev device links. To increase the odds that vdev_id will run after
the rules it depends on, increase the vdev.rules rule number from 60
to 69. With this change, vdev_id now provides functionality analogous
to zpool_id and zpool_layout, paving the way to retire those tools.
A defined alias takes precedence over a topology-derived name, but the
two naming methods can otherwise coexist. For example, one might name
drives in a JBOD with the sas_direct topology while naming an internal
L2ARC device with an alias.
For example, the following lines in vdev_id.conf will result in the
creation of links /dev/disk/by-vdev/{d1,d2}, each pointing to the same
target as the device link specified in the third field.
# by-vdev
# name fully qualified or base name of device link
alias d1 /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x5000c5002de3b9ca

Currently, zvols have a discard granularity set to 0, which suggests to
the upper layer that discard requests of arbirarily small size and

In practice however, ZFS does not handle unaligned discard requests
efficiently: indeed, it is unable to free a part of a block. It will
write zeros to the specified range instead, which is both useless and
inefficient (see dnode_free_range).
With this patch, zvol block devices expose volblocksize as their discard
granularity, so the upper layer is aware that it's not supposed to send

The end_writeback() function was changed by moving the call to
inode_sync_wait() earlier in to evict(). This effecitvely changes
the ordering of the sync but it does not impact the details of
the zfs implementation.
However, as part of this change end_writeback() was renamed to
clear_inode() to reflect the new semantics. This change does
impact us and clear_inode() now maps to end_writeback() for
kernels prior to 3.5.

The vmtruncate_range() support has been removed from the kernel in
favor of using the fallocate method in the file_operations table.

Issue #784
The export_operations member ->encode_fh() has been updated to
take both the child and parent inodes. This interface used to
take the child dentry and a bool describing if the parent is needed.
NOTE: While updating this code I noticed that we do not currently
cleanly handle the case where we're passed a connectable parent.
This code should be audited to make sure we're doing the right thing.

Issue #784
Currently, zpool online -e (dynamic vdev expansion) doesn't work on
whole disks because we're invoking ioctl(BLKRRPART) from userspace
while ZFS still has a partition open on the disk, which results in
EBUSY.
This patch moves the BLKRRPART invocation from the zpool utility to the
module. Specifically, this is done just before opening the device in
vdev_disk_open() which is called inside vdev_reopen(). This requires
jumping through some hoops to get to the disk device from the partition
device, and to make sure we can still open the partition after the
BLKRRPART call.
Note that this new code path is triggered on dynamic vdev expansion
only; other actions, like creating a new pool, are unchanged and still
call BLKRRPART from userspace.
This change also depends on API changes which are available in 2.6.37
and latter kernels. The build system has been updated to detect this,
but there is no compatibility mode for older kernels. This means that
online expansion will NOT be available in older kernels. However, it
will still be possible to expand the vdev offline.

This commit modifies the user to kernel space ioctl ABI. Extra
care should be taken when updating to ensure both the kernel
modules and utilities are updated. If only the user space
component is updated both the 'zpool events' command and the
'zpool reguid' command will not work until the kernel modules
are updated.
