Hi, Alyseo's team has implemented a new version of zfs list during the european open zfs hackaton at Ecole 42.
Here is the second version .
Comments are welcome.

I'm trying to reproduce the buildbot issue on ubuntu 12.10, but no success so far ! Any info or help on this one will be appreciated. In addition this distro is not supported since May 2014 : is it really of interest to keep it within builedbot process and pull request validation ?

Guess git clone issue on spl for centos7.0 and ubuntu14.04 are internal errors : correct ?

This is the counterpart to openzfs/spl@2345368 which replaces the
cv_wait_interruptible() function with cv_wait_sig().  There is no
functional change to patch merely brings the function names in to
sync to maximize portability.

@yada yes, cloning is definitely an internal error. Perhaps a timeout to github due to a networking issue some some such. There are also still a handful of known issues in the buildbot hits which need to be run down, check the issues tagged Test Suite to see if it's already known. This way you can tell if it's something introduced by the patch stack.

As for keeping 12.10 around it is officially no longer supported but unless it's causing issues we tend to keep them around for the additional test coverage. Specifically to ensure we're testing on a wider range of kernels.

In this case the ztest failure was caused by #2302 which is a known issue in both ZoL and illumos. It would be great to fix because we hit it fairly often due to the volume of automated testing which is run.

Any idea on this one :
http://buildbot.zfsonlinux.org/builders/ubuntu-14.04-amd64-current-builder/builds/2963/steps/shell_4/logs/stdio

Cause it does not seems to be related to our code ?

@yada see #3421, it's a build failure with an outstanding patch under review due to a change in the 4.1 kernel. Don't sweat that one.

The Linux kernel watchdog will automatically dump a backtrace for
any process while sleeps for over 120s in an uninterruptible state.

The solution is for the prefetch thread to sleep in an interruptible
state.  The way the existing code was written this is safe because
when woken it will always reevaluate its conditional.  As a general
rule it is preferable to sleep in an interruptible when possible.

sysstat's iostat omits the first report when the -y option is used.
This patch adds that functionality and omits the first report with

Kernels >= 3.12 have a NUMA-aware superblock shrinker which is used in
ZoL by zfs_sb_prune().  This patch calls the shrinker for each on-line
NUMA node in order that memory be freed for each one.

Both the 'zfs create' and 'zfs clone' commands are expected to
automatically mount and share new filesystems.  Since this is common
functionality it has been moved in to a shared helper function.

Use the 'mount' command instead of /proc/mounts to get a list of matching
filesystems.

This because /proc/mounts reports a pool with a space 'rpool 1' as
'rpool\0401'. The space is encoded as 3-digit octal which is legal.
However 'printf "%b"', which we use to filter out other illegal
characters (such as slash, space etc) can't properly interpret this
because it expects 4-digit octal. We get a � instead of the space
we expected. The correct value should have been 'rpool\00401' (note
the additional leading zero).

So use 'mount', which interprets all backslash-escapes correctly,
instead.

Linux 3.15 commit torvalds/linux@293bc98 introduced two new methods.
The ->read_iter() and ->write_iter() methods were designed to replace
the ->aio_read() and ->aio_write() interfaces.  Both interfaces were
preserved for several kernel releases in order to migrate all existing
consumers to the new interfaces.  But as of Linux 4.1 the legacy
interface has been retired and the ZFS code must be updated to use
the new interfaces.

The number of threads in the iput taskq has been increased to speed
up the number of iputs which can be handled.  This has been observed
to improve the  meta data reclaim regardless of zfs_sb_prune()
implementation in use.

The taskq has also been renamed z_iput to for consistency with the
rest of the I/O pipeline taskqs which are all named z_*.

For kernels which do not implement a per-suberblock shrinker,
those older than Linux 3.1, the shrink_dcache_parent() function
was used to attempt to reclaim dentries.  This was found not be
entirely reliable and could lead to performance issues on older
kernels running meta-data heavy workloads.

To address this issue a zfs_sb_prune_aliases() function has been
added to implement this functionality.  It relies on traversing
the list of znodes for a filesystem and adding them to a private
list with a reference held.  The private list can then be safely
walked outside the z_znodes_lock to prune dentires and drop the
last reference so the inode can be freed.

This provides the same synchronous behavior as the per-filesystem
shrinker and has the advantage of depending on only long standing
interfaces.

The metaslab allocator device selection algorithm contains a bias
mechanism whose goal is to achieve roughly equal disk space usage across
all top-level vdevs.

It seems that the initial rationale for this code was to allow newly
added (empty) vdevs to "come up to speed" faster in an attempt to make
the pool quickly converge to a steady state where all vdevs are equally
utilized.

While the code seems to work reasonably well for this use case, there
is another scenario in which this algorithm fails miserably: the case
where top-level vdevs don't have the same sizes (capacities). ZFS
allows this, and it is a good feature to have, so that users who simply
want to build a pool with the disks they happen to have lying around can
do so even if the disks have heteregenous sizes.

Here's a script that simulates a pool with two vdevs, with one 4X larger
than the other:

    dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/d1 bs=1 count=1 seek=134217728
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/d2 bs=1 count=1 seek=536870912
    zpool create testspace /tmp/d1 /tmp/d2
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/testspace/foobar bs=1M count=256
    zpool iostat -v testspace

Before this commit, the script would output the following:

                   capacity
    pool        alloc   free
    ----------  -----  -----
    testspace    252M   375M
      /tmp/d1    104M  18.5M
      /tmp/d2    148M   356M
    ----------  -----  -----

This demonstrates that the current code handles this situation very
poorly: d1 shows 85% usage despite the pool itself being only 40% full.
d1 is quite saturated at this point, and is slowing down the entire pool
due to saturation, fragmentation and the like.

In contrast, here's the result with the code in this commit:

                   capacity
    pool        alloc   free
    ----------  -----  -----
    testspace    252M   375M
      /tmp/d1   56.7M  66.3M
      /tmp/d2    195M   309M
   ----------  -----  ------

This looks much better. d1 is 46% used, which is close to the overall
pool utilization (40%). The code still doesn't result in perfectly
balanced allocation, probably because of the way mg_bias is applied
which does not guarantee perfect accuracy, but this is still much better
than before.

This seems generally useful. metaslab_aliquot is the ZFS allocation
granularity, which is roughly equivalent to what is called the stripe
size in traditional RAID arrays. It seems relevant to performance
tuning.
