9102 zfs should be able to initialize storage devices

The first access to a disk block can incur a performance penalty on some
platforms (e.g. AWS's EBS, VMware VMDKs). Therefore it is recommended that
volumes be "thick provisioned", where supported by the platform (VMware).
Thick provisioning is time consuming and often is ignored. If the thick
provision step is omitted, customers will see suboptimal performance until
we have written to all parts of the LUN. ZFS should be able to initialize
any unused storage to remove any first-write penalty that exists.

MFC r331701: MFV r331695, 331700: 9166 zfs storage pool checkpoint

illumos/illumos-gate@8671400134a11c848244896ca51a7db4d0f69da4

The idea of Storage Pool Checkpoint (aka zpool checkpoint) deals with
exactly that. It can be thought of as a “pool-wide snapshot” (or a
variation of extreme rewind that doesn’t corrupt your data). It remembers
the entire state of the pool at the point that it was taken and the user
can revert back to it later or discard it. Its generic use case is an
administrator that is about to perform a set of destructive actions to ZFS
as part of a critical procedure. She takes a checkpoint of the pool before
performing the actions, then rewinds back to it if one of them fails or puts
the pool into an unexpected state. Otherwise, she discards it. With the
assumption that no one else is making modifications to ZFS, she basically
wraps all these actions into a “high-level transaction”.

MFC r329732: MFV r329502: 7614 zfs device evacuation/removal

illumos/illumos-gate@5cabbc6b49070407fb9610cfe73d4c0e0dea3e77

https://www.illumos.org/issues/7614:
This project allows top-level vdevs to be removed from the storage pool with
“zpool remove”, reducing the total amount of storage in the pool. This
operation copies all allocated regions of the device to be removed onto other
devices, recording the mapping from old to new location. After the removal is
complete, read and free operations to the removed (now “indirect”) vdev must
be remapped and performed at the new location on disk. The indirect mapping
table is kept in memory whenever the pool is loaded, so there is minimal
performance overhead when doing operations on the indirect vdev.

The size of the in-memory mapping table will be reduced when its entries
become “obsolete” because they are no longer used by any block pointers in
the pool. An entry becomes obsolete when all the blocks that use it are
freed. An entry can also become obsolete when all the snapshots that
reference it are deleted, and the block pointers that reference it have been
“remapped” in all filesystems/zvols (and clones). Whenever an indirect block
is written, all the block pointers in it will be “remapped” to their new
(concrete) locations if possible. This process can be accelerated by using
the “zfs remap” command to proactively rewrite all indirect blocks that
reference indirect (removed) vdevs.

Note that when a device is removed, we do not verify the checksum of the data
that is copied. This makes the process much faster, but if it were used on
redundant vdevs (i.e. mirror or raidz vdevs), it would be possible to copy
the wrong data, when we have the correct data on e.g. the other side of the
mirror. Therefore, mirror and raidz devices can not be removed.

7745 print error if lzc_* is called before libzfs_core_init

illumos/illumos-gate@7c13517fff71be473e47531ef4330160c042bedc
https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/commit/7c13517fff71be473e47531ef4330160c042bedc

https://www.illumos.org/issues/7745
The problem is that consumers of `libZFS_Core` that forget to call
`libzfs_core_init()` before calling any other function of the library
are having a hard time realizing their mistake. The library's internal
file descriptor is declared as global static, which is ok, but it is not
initialized explicitly; therefore, it defaults to 0, which is a valid
file descriptor. If `libzfs_core_init()`, which explicitly initializes
the correct fd, is skipped, the ioctl functions return errors that do
not have anything to do with `libZFS_Core`, where the problem is
actually located.
Even though assertions for that existed within `libZFS_Core` for debug
builds, they were never enabled because the `-DDEBUG` flag was missing
from the compiler flags.
This patch applies the following changes:
1. It adds `-DDEBUG` for debug builds of `libZFS_Core` and `libzfs`,
to enable their assertions on debug builds.
2. It corrects an assertion within `libzfs`, where a function had
been spelled incorrectly (`zpool_prop_unsupported()`) and nobody
knew because the `-DDEBUG` flag was missing, and the preprocessor
was taking that part of the code away.
3. The library's internal fd is initialized to `-1` and `VERIFY`
assertions have been placed to check that the fd is not equal to
`-1` before issuing any ioctl. It is important here to note, that
the `VERIFY` assertions exist in both debug and non-debug builds.
4. In `libzfs_core_fini` we make sure to never increment the
refcount of our fd below 0, and also reset the fd to `-1` when no
one refers to it. The reason for this, is for the rare case that
the consumer closes all references but then calls one of the
library's functions without using `libzfs_core_init()` first, and
in the mean time, a previous call to `open()` decided to reuse
our previous fd. This scenario would have passed our assertion in

MFC r328224: MFV r328220: 8677 Open-Context Channel Programs

illumos/illumos-gate@a3b2868063897ff0083dea538f55f9873eec981f

https://www.illumos.org/issues/8677
We want to be able to run channel programs outside of synching context.
This would greatly improve performance of channel program that just gather
information, as we won't have to wait for synching context anymore.

This feature should introduce the following:
- A new command line flag in "zfs program" to specify our intention to
run in open context.
- A new flag/option within the channel program ioctl which selects the
context.
- Appropriate error handling whenever we try a channel program in
open-context that contains zfs.sync* expressions.
- Documentation for the new feature in the manual pages.

At present, the kernel side code seems to blindly rollback to whatever happens
to be the latest snapshot at the time when the rollback task is processed.
The expected target's name should be passed to the kernel driver and the sync
task should validate that the target exists and that it is the latest snapshot
indeed.

MFV r298471: 6052 decouple lzc_create() from the implementation details

illumos/illumos-gate@26455f9efcf9b1e44937d4d86d1ce37b006f25a9
https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/commit/26455f9efcf9b1e44937d4d86d1ce37b006f25a9

https://www.illumos.org/issues/6052
At the moment type parameter of lzc_create() is of dmu_objset_type_t type.
That exposes an implementation detail and requires sys/fs/zfs.h to be included
in libzfs_core.h creating unnecessary coupling between libzfs_core interface
and ZFS internals.
I think that dmu_objset_type_t should be replaced with a libzfs_core
enumeration of supported dataset types.
For ABI reasons the new enumeration could be bit-compatible with
dmu_objset_type_t.
For example:
typedef enum {
LZC_DST_ZFS = 2,
LZC_DST_ZVOL
} lzc_dataset_type_t;

Illumos ZFS issues:

# 252219 25-Jun-2013 delphij

MFV r252215:

Restore a previous behavior before r251646, where when destructing
ZFS snapshot, the ioctl would return ENOENT when it hit any of
them in the errlist (the new behavior was only return ENOENT when
all returns error).

Merge libzfs_core branch:
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.

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
