includes MFV 238590, 238592, 247580 MFV 238590, 238592: In the first zfs ioctl restructuring phase, the libzfs_core library was introduced. It is a new thin library that wraps around kernel ioctl's. The idea is to provide a forward-compatible way of dealing with new features. Arguments are passed in nvlists and not random zfs_cmd fields, new-style ioctls are logged to pool history using a new method of history logging. http://blog.delphix.com/matt/2012/01/17/the-future-of-libzfs/ MFV 247580 [1]: To address issues of several deadlocks and race conditions the locking code around dsl_dataset was rewritten and the interface to synctasks was changed. User-Visible Changes: "zfs snapshot" can create more arbitrary snapshots at once (atomically) "zfs destroy" destroys multiple snapshots at once "zfs recv" has improved performance Backward Compatibility: I have extended the compatibility layer to support full backward compatibility by remapping or rewriting the responsible ioctl arguments. Old utilities are fully supported by the new kernel module. Forward Compatibility: New utilities work with old kernels with the following restrictions: - creating, destroying, holding and releasing of multiple snapshots at once is not supported, this includes recursive (-r) commands Illumos ZFS issues: 2882 implement libzfs_core 2900 "zfs snapshot" should be able to create multiple, arbitrary snapshots at once 3464 zfs synctask code needs restructuring References: https://www.illumos.org/issues/2882 https://www.illumos.org/issues/2900 https://www.illumos.org/issues/3464 [1] MFC after: 1 month Sponsored by: Hybrid Logic Inc.
