crash.sh script attached to FreeNAS bug 4109:
https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/4109
Three are in the snapshot layer:
a) AVG explains in his notes: https://wiki.freebsd.org/AvgVfsSolarisVsFreeBSD
"VOP_INACTIVE must not do any destructive actions to a vnode
and its filesystem node, nor invalidate them in any way."
gfs_vop_inactive and zfsctl_snapshot_inactive did just that. In
OpenSolaris VOP_INACTIVE is much closer to FreeBSD's VOP_RECLAIM.
Rename & move them to gfs_vop_reclaim and zfsctl_snapshot_reclaim
and merge in the requisite vnode_destroy from zfsctl_common_reclaim.
b) gfs_lookup_dot and various zfsctl functions do not honor the
FreeBSD VFS convention of only locking from the root downward. When
looking up ".." the convention is to drop the current leaf vnode lock before
acquiring the directory vnode and then subsequently re-acquiring the lock on the
leaf vnode. This fixes that in all the places that our exercised by crash.sh.
c) The snapshot may already be unmounted when the directory vnode is reclaimed.
Check for this case and return.
One in the common layer:
d) Callers of traverse expect the reference to the vnode passed in to be
maintained. Don't release it.
This last one may be an unclear contract. There may in fact be some callers that
do expect the reference to be dropped on success in addition to callers that
expect it to be released. In this case a further audit of the callers is needed
and a consensus on the correct behavior.

Prior to this change we triggered ARC reclaim when kmem usage passed 3/4
of the total available, as indicated by vmem_size(kmem_arena, VMEM_ALLOC).
This could lead large amounts of unused RAM e.g. on a 192GB machine with
ARC the only major RAM consumer, 40GB of RAM would remain unused.
The old method has also been seen to result in extreme RAM usage under
certain loads, causing poor performance and stalls.
We now trigger ARC reclaim when the number of free pages drops below the
value defined by the new sysctl vfs.zfs.arc_free_target, which defaults
to the value of vm.v_free_target.

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.

The changes how TRIM requests are generated to use ZIO_TYPE_FREE + a priority
instead of ZIO_TYPE_IOCTL, until processed by vdev_geom; only then is it
translated the required geom values. This reduces the amount of changes
required for FREE requests to be supported by the new IO scheduler. This
also eliminates the need for a specific DKIOCTRIM.
Also fixed FREE vdev child IO's from running ZIO_STAGE_VDEV_IO_DONE as part
of their schedule.
As the new IO scheduler can result in a request to execute one type of IO to
actually run a different type of IO it requires that zio_trim requests are
processed without holding the trim map lock (tm->tm_lock), as the free request
execute call may result in write request running hence triggering a
trim_map_write_start call, which takes the trim map lock and hence would result
in recused on no-recursive sx lock.

in the future in a backward compatible (API and ABI) way.
The cap_rights_t represents capability rights. We used to use one bit to
represent one right, but we are running out of spare bits. Currently the new
structure provides place for 114 rights (so 50 more than the previous
cap_rights_t), but it is possible to grow the structure to hold at least 285
rights, although we can make it even larger if 285 rights won't be enough.
The structure definition looks like this:
struct cap_rights {
uint64_t cr_rights[CAP_RIGHTS_VERSION + 2];
};
The initial CAP_RIGHTS_VERSION is 0.
The top two bits in the first element of the cr_rights[] array contain total
number of elements in the array - 2. This means if those two bits are equal to
0, we have 2 array elements.
The top two bits in all remaining array elements should be 0.
The next five bits in all array elements contain array index. Only one bit is
used and bit position in this five-bits range defines array index. This means
there can be at most five array elements in the future.
To define new right the CAPRIGHT() macro must be used. The macro takes two
arguments - an array index and a bit to set, eg.
#define CAP_PDKILL CAPRIGHT(1, 0x0000000000000800ULL)
We still support aliases that combine few rights, but the rights have to belong
to the same array element, eg:
#define CAP_LOOKUP CAPRIGHT(0, 0x0000000000000400ULL)
#define CAP_FCHMOD CAPRIGHT(0, 0x0000000000002000ULL)
#define CAP_FCHMODAT (CAP_FCHMOD | CAP_LOOKUP)
There is new API to manage the new cap_rights_t structure:
cap_rights_t *cap_rights_init(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
void cap_rights_set(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
void cap_rights_clear(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
bool cap_rights_is_set(const cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
bool cap_rights_is_valid(const cap_rights_t *rights);
void cap_rights_merge(cap_rights_t *dst, const cap_rights_t *src);
void cap_rights_remove(cap_rights_t *dst, const cap_rights_t *src);
bool cap_rights_contains(const cap_rights_t *big, const cap_rights_t *little);
Capability rights to the cap_rights_init(), cap_rights_set(),
cap_rights_clear() and cap_rights_is_set() functions are provided by
separating them with commas, eg:
cap_rights_t rights;
cap_rights_init(&rights, CAP_READ, CAP_WRITE, CAP_FSTAT);
There is no need to terminate the list of rights, as those functions are
actually macros that take care of the termination, eg:
#define cap_rights_set(rights, ...) \
__cap_rights_set((rights), __VA_ARGS__, 0ULL)
void __cap_rights_set(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
Thanks to using one bit as an array index we can assert in those functions that
there are no two rights belonging to different array elements provided
together. For example this is illegal and will be detected, because CAP_LOOKUP
belongs to element 0 and CAP_PDKILL to element 1:
cap_rights_init(&rights, CAP_LOOKUP | CAP_PDKILL);
Providing several rights that belongs to the same array's element this way is
correct, but is not advised. It should only be used for aliases definition.
This commit also breaks compatibility with some existing Capsicum system calls,
but I see no other way to do that. This should be fine as Capsicum is still
experimental and this change is not going to 9.x.

Currently, the trim module uses the same algorithm for data and cache
devices when deciding to issue TRIM requests, based on how far in the
past the TXG is.
Unfortunately, this is not ideal for cache devices, because the L2ARC
doesn't use the concept of TXGs at all. In fact, when using a pool for
reading only, the L2ARC is written but the TXG counter doesn't
increase, and so no new TRIM requests are issued to the cache device.
This patch fixes the issue by using time instead of the TXG number as
the criteria for trimming on cache devices. The basic delay principle
stays the same, but parameters are expressed in seconds instead of
TXGs. The new parameters are named trim_l2arc_limit and
trim_l2arc_batch, and both default to 30 second.

The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported:
* The KPI changes as follow:

- VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED()
(in order to avoid visibility of implementation details)
- The read-mode operations are added:
VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(),
VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED()
* The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring
sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions
using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h
consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h.
* zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into
the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris
versions must be avoided.
At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions
directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs.
The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must
be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

* Illumos zfs issue #3035 [1] LZ4 compression support in ZFS.
LZ4 is a new high-speed BSD-licensed compression algorithm created
by Yann Collet that delivers very high compression and decompression
performance compared to lzjb (>50% faster on compression, >80% faster
on decompression and around 3x faster on compression of incompressible
data), while giving better compression ratio [1].
This version of LZ4 corresponds to upstream's [2] revision 85.
Please note that for obvious reasons this is not backward read
compatible. This means once a pool have LZ4 compressed data, these
data can no longer be read by older ZFS implementations.
Local changes:
- On-stack hash table disabled and using kernel slab allocator
instead, at this time. This requires larger kernel thread stack
for zio workers. This may change in the future should we adjusted
the zio workers' thread stack size.
- likely and unlikely will be undefined if they are already defined,
this is required for i386 XEN build.
- Removed De Bruijn sequence based __builtin_ctz family of builtins
in favor of the latter. Both GCC and clang supports these builtins.
- Changed the way the LZ4 code detects endianness.
- Manual pages modifications to mention the feature based on Illumos
counterpart.
- Boot loader changes to make it support LZ4 decompression.
