Merge libzfs_core and other ZFS bugfixes and improvements.
MFC r248571:
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
MFC r248976:
Call dmu_snapshot_list_next() in zvol.c with dsl_pool_config lock held
MFC r249004:
Do not check against uninitialized rc and comment out vendor code
MFC r249042:
Fix possible pool hold leak in dmu_send_impl()
Illumos ZFS issues:
3645 dmu_send_impl: possibilty of pool hold leak
MFC r249188:
Import vendor change to reduce diff, no effect on FreeBSD.
Illumos ZFS issues:
3517 importing pool with autoreplace=on and "hole" vdevs crashes
syseventd
MFC r249195:
Merge change from vendor to reduce diff only.
ZFS dtrace probes are not supported on FreeBSD yet.
Illumos ZFS issues:
3598 want to dtrace when errors are generated in zfs
MFC r249196:
Provide a fix for kernel panic if receiving recursive deduplicated
streams. Problem reported to vendor.
Illumos ZFS issues:
3692 Panic on zfs receive of a recursive deduplicated stream
MFC r249206:
Merge vendor change - modify time processing in deadman thread.
Illumos ZFS issues:
3618 ::zio dcmd does not show timestamp data
MFC r249207:
Allow zdb to output a histogram of compressed block sizes.
Illumos ZFS issues:
3641 want a histogram of compressed block sizes
MFC r249319:
ZFS expects a copyout of zfs_cmd_t on an ioctl error. Our sys_ioctl()
doesn't copyout in this case.
To solve this a new struct zfs_iocparm_t is introduced consisting of:
- zfs_ioctl_version (future backwards compatibility purposes)
- user space pointer to zfs_cmd_t (copyin and copyout)
- size of zfs_cmd_t (verification purposes)
The copyin and copyout of zfs_cmd_t is now done the illumos (vendor) way
what makes porting of new changes easier and ensures correct behavior if
returning an error.
MFC r249326:
Cast (void *)(uintptr_t) on copyout and copyin of zfs_iocparm_t.zfs_cmd
MFC r249356:
Merge bugfixes accepted and integrated by vendor. Underlying problems
have been reported by us and fixed in r240942 and r249196.
Illumos ZFS issues:
3645 dmu_send_impl: possibilty of pool hold leak
3692 Panic on zfs receive of a recursive deduplicated stream
MFC r249357:
Fix libzfs to report error instead of returning zero if trying to hold or
release a non-existing snapshot of a existing dataset. In recursive case
error is reported if no snapshots with the requested name have been found.
Illumos ZFS issues:
3699 zfs hold or release of a non-existent snapshot does not output
error

Update ZFS from version 6 to 13 and bring some FreeBSD-specific changes.
This bring huge amount of changes, I'll enumerate only user-visible changes:
- Delegated Administration
Allows regular users to perform ZFS operations, like file system
creation, snapshot creation, etc.
- L2ARC
Level 2 cache for ZFS - allows to use additional disks for cache.
Huge performance improvements mostly for random read of mostly
static content.
- slog
Allow to use additional disks for ZFS Intent Log to speed up
operations like fsync(2).
- vfs.zfs.super_owner
Allows regular users to perform privileged operations on files stored
on ZFS file systems owned by him. Very careful with this one.
- chflags(2)
Not all the flags are supported. This still needs work.
- ZFSBoot
Support to boot off of ZFS pool. Not finished, AFAIK.

- Snapshot properties
- New failure modes
Before if write requested failed, system paniced. Now one
can select from one of three failure modes:
- panic - panic on write error
- wait - wait for disk to reappear
- continue - serve read requests if possible, block write requests
- Refquota, refreservation properties
Just quota and reservation properties, but don't count space consumed
by children file systems, clones and snapshots.
- Sparse volumes
ZVOLs that don't reserve space in the pool.
- External attributes
Compatible with extattr(2).
- NFSv4-ACLs
Not sure about the status, might not be complete yet.
Submitted by: trasz
- Creation-time properties
- Regression tests for zpool(8) command.
