To aid in detecting and debugging stack overflow issues make the user space stack limit configurable via a new ZFS_STACK_SIZE environment variable. The value assigned to ZFS_STACK_SIZE will be used as the default stack size in bytes. Because this is mainly useful as a debugging aid in conjunction with ztest the stack limit is disabled by default. See the ztest(1) man page for additional details on using the ZFS_STACK_SIZE environment variable.

|
.SH NAME
|
|
\fBztest\fR \- was written by the ZFS Developers as a ZFS unit test.
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.LP
|
|
.BI "ztest <options>"
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.LP
|
|
This manual page documents briefly the \fBztest\fR command.
|
|
.LP
|
|
\fBztest\fR was written by the ZFS Developers as a ZFS unit test. The
|
|
tool was developed in tandem with the ZFS functionality and was
|
|
executed nightly as one of the many regression test against the daily
|
|
build. As features were added to ZFS, unit tests were also added to
|
|
\fBztest\fR. In addition, a separate test development team wrote and
|
|
executed more functional and stress tests.
|
|
.LP
|
|
By default \fBztest\fR runs for ten minutes and uses block files
|
|
(stored in /tmp) to create pools rather than using physical disks.
|
|
Block files afford \fBztest\fR its flexibility to play around with
|
|
zpool components without requiring large hardware configurations.
|
|
However, storing the block files in /tmp may not work for you if you
|
|
have a small tmp directory.
|
|
.LP
|
|
By default is non-verbose. This is why entering the command above will
|
|
result in \fBztest\fR quietly executing for 5 minutes. The -V option
|
|
can be used to increase the verbosity of the tool. Adding multiple -V
|
|
option is allowed and the more you add the more chatty \fBztest\fR
|
|
becomes.
|
|
.LP
|
|
After the \fBztest\fR run completes, you should notice many ztest.*
|
|
files lying around. Once the run completes you can safely remove these
|
|
files. Note that you shouldn't remove these files during a run. You
|
|
can re-use these files in your next \fBztest\fR run by using the -E
|
|
option.

.SH "EXAMPLES"
|
|
.LP
|
|
To override /tmp as your location for block files, you can use the -f
|
|
option:
|
|
.IP
|
|
ztest -f /
|
|
.LP
|
|
To get an idea of what ztest is actually testing try this:
|
|
.IP
|
|
ztest -f / -VVV
|
|
.LP
|
|
Maybe you'd like to run ztest for longer? To do so simply use the -T
|
|
option and specify the runlength in seconds like so:
|
|
.IP
|
|
ztest -f / -V -T 120
|
|
|
|
.SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES"
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B "ZFS_STACK_SIZE=stacksize"
|
|
Limit the default stack size to \fBstacksize\fR bytes for the purpose of
|
|
detecting and debugging kernel stack overflows. For x86_64 platforms this
|
|
value should be set as follows to simulate these platforms: \fB8192\fR
|
|
(Linux), \fB20480\fR (Illumos), \fB16384\fR (FreeBSD).
|
|
|
|
In practice you may need to set these value slightly higher because
|
|
differences in stack usage between kernel and user space can lead to spurious
|
|
stack overflows (especially when debugging is enabled). The specified value
|
|
will be rounded up to a floor of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN which is the minimum stack
|
|
required for a NULL procedure in user space.
|
|
|
|
By default the stack size is limited to 256K.
