Here's the procedure:
- Create your kernel configuration (`.config` file) as usual. This
has to be done first so that SPL's configure script is able to
detect kernel features correctly.
- Run `make prepare scripts` inside the kernel source tree.
- Run `./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...`
inside the SPL directory.
- Run `./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...` inside the SPL directory.
- In the kernel source tree, enable the `CONFIG_SPL` option
(e.g. using `make menuconfig`).
- Build the kernel as usual.
SPL module parameters can be set at boot time using the following syntax
on the kernel command line: `spl.parameter_name=parameter_value`.

Issue zfsonlinux/zfs#851
Currently, the SPL tries to determine the hostid at module load. The
hostid is usually determined by running the userland program "hostid"
during module initialization.
Unfortunately, when the module initializes, it may be way too soon to be
able to run any userland programs. This is especially true when the
module is compiled directly inside the kernel (built-in); in that case,
the SPL would try to run hostid when the kernel is still initializing,
which of course is doomed to fail.
This patch fixes the issue by deferring hostid generation until
something actually needs the hostid (that is, when zone_get_hostid() is
called), thus switching to a "on-initialization" model to a "on-demand"
(lazy loading) model. ZFS only needs the hostid when some pool
operations are requested, and this always happens way after the kernel
has finished initialization, thus solving the problem.

This commit introduces a "copy-builtin" script designed to prepare a
kernel source tree for building SPL as a builtin module. The script
makes a full copy of all needed files, thus making the kernel source
tree fully independent of the spl source package.
To achieve that, some compilation flags (-include, -I) have been moved
to module/Makefile. This Makefile is only used when compiling external
modules; when compiling builtin modules, a Kbuild file generated by the
configure-builtin script is used instead. This makes sure Makefiles
inside the kernel source tree does not contain references to the spl

This patch adds a new autoconf function: SPL_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL.
This new function does the following:
- Call LINUX_TRY_COMPILE with the specified parameters.
- If unsuccessful, return false.
- If successful and we're configuring with --enable-linux-builtin,
return true.
- Else, call CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT with the specified parameters and
return the result.
All calls to CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT are converted to
LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL so that the tests work even when configuring
for builtin on a kernel which doesn't have loadable module support, or
hasn't been built yet.
The only exception are:
- AC_GET_VMALLOC_INFO, because we don't even have a public header to
include in the test case, but that's okay considering this symbol can
be ignored just fine.
- SPL_AC_DEVICE_CREATE, which is legacy API for 2.6.18 kernels. Since
kernels this old are no longer supported it should arguably just be
removed entirely from the build system.
Note that we're also checking for the correct prototype with an actual
call, which was not the case with CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT. However, for
"complicated" test cases like with multiple symbol versions (e.g.
vfs_fsync), we stick with the original behavior and only check for the

Currently, when building a test case, we're compiling an entire Linux

generates a "conftest.mod.c" file with some boilerplate module
declaration code.
This poses a problem when configuring for built-in on kernels which have
loadable module support disabled. In this case conftest.mod.c is
referencing disabled code, resulting in a compilation failure, thus
breaking the tests.
This patch fixes the issue by faking the modpost stage when the

modpost command to be /bin/true, and using an empty conftest.mod.c file.
The test module still compiles fine, although the result isn't loadable,

A race condition was introduced by which a wake_up() call can be lost
after the taskq thread determines there is no pending work items,
leading to deadlock:
This could easily happen if an interrupt for an IO completion was
outstanding at the point where the taskq thread reenables interrupts,
just before the call to add_wait_queue_exclusive(). The handler would
run immediately within the race window.

Taskq locking optimizations
Testing has shown that tq->tq_lock can be highly contended when a
large number of small work items are dispatched. The lock hold time
is reduced by the following changes:
1) Use exclusive threads in the work_waitq
When a single work item is dispatched we only need to wake a single
thread to service it. The current implementation uses non-exclusive
threads so all threads are woken when the dispatcher calls wake_up().
If a large number of threads are in the queue this overhead can become
non-negligible.
2) Conditionally add/remove threads from work waitq outside of tq_lock
Taskq threads need only add themselves to the work wait queue if there
are no pending work items. Furthermore, the add and remove function
calls can be made outside of the taskq lock since the wait queues are
protected from concurrent access by their own spinlocks.
3) Call wake_up() outside of tq->tq_lock
Again, the wait queues are protected by their own spinlock, so the
dispatcher functions can drop tq->tq_lock before calling wake_up().
A new splat test taskq:contention was added in a prior commit to measure
the impact of these changes. The following table summarizes the
results using data from the kernel lock profiler.
Each row reflects the average result over 5 test runs.
/proc/lock_stats was zeroed out before and collected after each run.
Column 1 is the cumulative hold time in microseconds for tq->tq_lock.
The tests are cumulative; each row reflects the code changes of the
previous rows. %diff is calculated with respect to "original" as
100*(orig-new)/orig.
Although calling wake_up() outside of the taskq lock dramatically
reduced the taskq lock hold time, the test actually took slightly more
wall clock time. This is because the point of contention shifts from
the taskq lock to the wait queue lock. But the change still seems
worthwhile since it removes our taskq implementation as a bottleneck,
assuming the small increase in wall clock time to be statistical
noise.

Store copy of tqent_flags prior to servicing task
A preallocated taskq_ent_t's tqent_flags must be checked prior to
servicing the taskq_ent_t. Once a preallocated taskq entry is serviced,
the ownership of the entry is handed back to the caller of
taskq_dispatch, thus the entry's contents can potentially be mangled.
In particular, this is a problem in the case where a preallocated taskq
entry is serviced, and the caller clears it's tqent_flags field. Thus,
when the function returns and task_done is called, it looks as though
the entry is **not** a preallocated task (when in fact it **is** a
preallocated task).
In this situation, task_done will place the preallocated taskq_ent_t
structure onto the taskq_t's free list. This is a **huge** mistake. If
the taskq_ent_t is then freed by the caller of taskq_dispatch, the
taskq_t's free list will hold a pointer to garbage data. Even worse, if
nothing has over written the freed memory before the pointer is
dereferenced, it may still look as though it points to a valid list_head
belonging to a taskq_ent_t structure.
Thus, the task entry's flags are now copied prior to servicing the task.
This copy is then checked to see if it is a preallocated task, and
determine if the entry needs to be passed down to the task_done
function.

Swap taskq_ent_t with taskqid_t in taskq_thread_t
The taskq_t's active thread list is sorted based on its
tqt_ent->tqent_id field. The list is kept sorted solely by inserting
new taskq_thread_t's in their correct sorted location; no other
means is used. This means that once inserted, if a taskq_thread_t's
tqt_ent->tqent_id field changes, the list runs the risk of no
longer being sorted.
Prior to the introduction of the taskq_dispatch_prealloc() interface,
this was not a problem as a taskq_ent_t actively being serviced under
the old interface should always have a static tqent_id field. Thus,
once the taskq_thread_t is added to the taskq_t's active thread list,
the taskq_thread_t's tqt_ent->tqent_id field would remain constant.
Now, this is no longer the case. Currently, if using the
taskq_dispatch_prealloc() interface, any given taskq_ent_t actively
being serviced _may_ have its tqent_id value incremented. This happens
when the preallocated taskq_ent_t structure is recursively dispatched.
Thus, a taskq_thread_t could potentially have its tqt_ent->tqent_id
field silently modified from under its feet. If this were to happen
to a taskq_thread_t on a taskq_t's active thread list, this would
compromise the integrity of the order of the list (as the list
_may_ no longer be sorted).
To get around this, the taskq_thread_t's taskq_ent_t pointer was
replaced with its own static copy of the tqent_id. So, as a taskq_ent_t
is pulled off of the taskq_t's pending list, a static copy of its
tqent_id is made and this copy is used to sort the active thread
list. Using a static copy is key in ensuring the integrity of the
order of the active thread list. Even if the underlying taskq_ent_t
is recursively dispatched (as has its tqent_id modified), this
static copy stored inside the taskq_thread_t will remain constant.

the byte format. Conveniences like a ${HOSTID:$ii:2} substring
range or a `sed` one-liner are similarly avoided.

Read the /etc/hostid file directly.
Deprecate the /usr/bin/hostid call by reading the /etc/hostid file
directly. Add the spl_hostid_path parameter to override the default
/etc/hostid path.
Rename the set_hostid() function to hostid_exec() to better reflect
actual behavior and complement the new hostid_read() function.
Use HW_INVALID_HOSTID as the spl_hostid sentinel value because
zero seems to be a valid gethostid() result on Linux.
