Closes#17734Closes#17755
Traditionally, unused dentries would be cached in the dentry cache until
the associated entry is no longer on disk. The cached dentry continues
to hold an inode reference, causing the inode to be pinned (see previous
commit).
Here we implement the dentry op d_delete, which is roughly analogous to
the drop_inode superblock op, and add a zfs_delete_dentry tunable to
control its behaviour. By default it continues the traditional
behaviour, but when the tunable is enabled, we signal that an unused
dentry should be freed immediately, releasing its inode reference, and
so allowing that inode to be deleted if no longer in use.

Traditionally, unused inodes would be held on the superblock inode cache
until the associated on-disk file is removed or the kernel requests
reclaim. On filesystems with millions of rarely-used files, this can be
a lot of unusable memory.
Here we implement the superblock drop_inode method, and add a
zfs_delete_inode tunable to control its behaviour. By default it
continues the traditional behaviour, but when the tunable is enabled, we
signal that the inode should be deleted immediately when the last
reference is dropped, rather than cached. This releases the associated
data to the dbuf cache and ARC, allowing them to be reclaimed normally.

The current description is somewhat difficult to parse through, and in
some cases is a little unclear as to the behavior.
Split it into a paragraphs based on the three distinct behaviors you
may get: prompt, file URL, HTTP(S) URL. The descriptions of the file
and HTTP(s) behavior seems fine, but prompt is a little vague- expand
on it and make it clear that the behavior is actively based on whether
the inquisitor of key-data is provided with a tty for stdin or not.
Also clarify *why* one shouldn't "place keys which should be kept secret
on the command line" and note that you *have* to supply the key via
stdin if it's a raw key, just to be sure.

Historically, ZED has blindly spawned off zedlets in parallel and never
worried about their completion order. This means that you can
potentially have zedlets for event number 2 starting before zedlets for
event number 1 had finished. Most of the time this is fine, and it
actually helps a lot when the system is getting spammed with hundreds
of events.
However, there are times when you want your zedlets to be executed
in sequence with the event ID. That is where synchronous zedlets
come in.
ZED will wait for all previously spawned zedlets to finish before
running a synchronous zedlet. Synchronous zedlets are guaranteed to be
the only zedlet running. No other zedlets may run in parallel with a
synchronous zedlet. Users should be careful to only use synchronous
zedlets when needed, since they decrease parallelism.
To make a zedlet synchronous, simply add a "-sync-" immediately
following the event name in the zedlet's file name:
EVENT_NAME-sync-ZEDLETNAME.sh
For example, if you wanted a synchronous statechange script:
statechange-sync-myzedlet.sh

A single slow responding disk can affect the overall read
performance of a raidz group. When a raidz child disk is
determined to be a persistent slow outlier, then have it
sit out during reads for a period of time. The raidz group
can use parity to reconstruct the data that was skipped.
Each time a slow disk is placed into a sit out period, its
`vdev_stat.vs_slow_ios count` is incremented and a zevent
class `ereport.fs.zfs.delay` is posted.
The length of the sit out period can be changed using the
`raid_read_sit_out_secs` module parameter. Setting it to
zero disables slow outlier detection.

When attempting to debug performance problems on large systems, one of
the major factors that affect performance is free space
fragmentation. This heavily affects the allocation process, which is an
area of active development in ZFS. Unfortunately, fragmenting a large
pool for testing purposes is time consuming; it usually involves filling
the pool and then repeatedly overwriting data until the free space
becomes fragmented, which can take many hours. And even if the time is
available, artificial workloads rarely generate the same fragmentation
patterns as the natural workloads they're attempting to mimic.
This patch has two parts. First, in zdb, we add the ability to export
the full allocation map of the pool. It iterates over each vdev,
printing every allocated segment in the ms_allocatable range tree. This
can be done while the pool is online, though in that case the allocation
map may actually be from several different TXGs as new ones are loaded
on demand.
The second is a new subcommand for zhack, zhack metaslab leak (and its
supporting kernel changes). This is a zhack subcommand that imports a
pool and then modified the range trees of the metaslabs, allowing the
sync process to write them out normall. It does not currently store
those allocations anywhere to make them reversible, and there is no
corresponding free subcommand (which would be extremely dangerous); this
is an irreversible process, only intended for performance testing. The
only way to reclaim the space afterwards is to destroy the pool or roll
back to a checkpoint.

Before this change ZIL blocks were allocated only from normal or
SLOG vdevs. In typical situation when special vdevs are SSDs and
normal are HDDs it could cause weird inversions when data blocks
are written to SSDs, but ZIL referencing them to HDDs.
This change assumes that special vdevs typically have much better
(or at least not worse) latency than normal, and so in absence of
SLOGs should store ZIL blocks. It means similar to normal vdevs
introduction of special embedded log allocation class and updating
the allocation fallback order to: SLOG -> special embedded log ->
special -> normal embedded log -> normal.
The code tries to guess whether data block is going to be written
to normal or special vdev (it can not be done precisely before
compression) and prefer indirect writes for blocks written to a
special vdev to avoid double-write. For blocks that are going to
be written to normal vdev, special vdev by default plays as SLOG,
reducing write latency by the cost of higher special vdev wear,
but it is tunable via module parameter.
This should allow HDD pools with decent SSD as special vdev to
work under synchronous workloads without requiring additional
SLOG SSD, impractical in many scenarios.

It makes no sense to limit read size below the block size, since
DMU will any way consume resources for the whole block, while the
current zfs_vnops_read_chunk_size is only 1MB, which is smaller
that maximum block size of 16MB. Plus in case of misaligned
Uncached I/O the buffer may get evicted between the chunks,
requiring repeating I/Os.
On 64-bit platforms increase zfs_vnops_read_chunk_size to 32MB.
It allows to less depend on speculative prefetcher if application
requests specific size, first not waiting for prefetcher to start
and later not prefetching more than needed.
Also while there, we don't need to align reads to the chunk size,
but only to a block size, which is smaller and so more forgiving.

Before Direct I/O was implemented, I've implemented lighter version
I called Uncached I/O. It uses normal DMU/ARC data path with some
optimizations, but evicts data from caches as soon as possible and
reasonable. Originally I wired it only to a primarycache property,
but now completing the integration all the way up to the VFS.
While Direct I/O has the lowest possible memory bandwidth usage,
it also has a significant number of limitations. It require I/Os
to be page aligned, does not allow speculative prefetch, etc. The
Uncached I/O does not have those limitations, but instead require
additional memory copy, though still one less than regular cached
I/O. As such it should fill the gap in between. Considering this
I've disabled annoying EINVAL errors on misaligned requests, adding
a tunable for those who wants to test their applications.
To pass the information between the layers I had to change a number
of APIs. But as side effect upper layers can now control not only
the caching, but also speculative prefetch. I haven't wired it to
VFS yet, since it require looking on some OS specifics. But while
there I've implemented speculative prefetch of indirect blocks for
Direct I/O, controllable via all the same mechanisms.
