Certain versions of gcc generate an 'unrecognized command

Now, the use of -Wunused-but-set-variable in the autoconf

The root cause of this issue was the CFQ scheduler which can,

Set elevator for DM devices despite vdev_wholedisk
The current state of udev and devicer-mapper devices makes it difficult
to construct a mapping of DM partitions and their underlying DM device.
For example, with a /dev directory with the following contents:
$ ls -d /dev/dm-*
/dev/dm-0
/dev/dm-1
/dev/dm-2
/dev/dm-3
it is not immediately apparent if these are completely separate devices,
or partitions and real devices intermixed. In contrast, SCSI devices
would appear as so:
$ ls -d /dev/sd*
/dev/sda
/dev/sda1
/dev/sdb
/dev/sdb1
Here, one can immediately determine that there are two devices (sda and
sdb), each containing a single partition. The lack of a predictable and
consistent mapping from DM devices to DM device partitions makes it
difficult for user space to process these devices the same way it does
SCSI devices.
As a result, the ZFS utilities do not partition DM devices, and instead
set the "vdev_wholedisk" label to 0 and treat them as partitions. This
has the side effect that, even if ZFS has sole ownership of the device,
the IO scheduler will not be modified because it is treated as a
partition.
This change adds an exception for DM devices in vdev_elevator_switch,
allowing the elevator to be modified even though the "vdev_wholedisk"

Use the slog even with logbias=throughput.
In the current code, logbias=throughput implies the following:
1) All synchronous writes are logged in indirect mode.
2) The slog is not used.
(1) makes sense because it avoids writing the data twice, which is
obviously a good thing when the user wants maximum pool throughput.
(2), however, is a surprising decision. Considering all writes are
indirect, the log record doesn't contain the actual data, only pointers
to DMU blocks. As a result, log records written in logbias=throughput
mode are quite small, and as such, it doesn't make any sense to write
them to the main pool since slogs are usually optimized for small
synchronous writes.
In fact, the current behavior is actually harmful for performance,
because log blocks and data blocks from dmu_sync() seldom have the same
allocation size and as a result are usually allocated from different
metaslabs. This means that if a spindle has to write both log blocks and
DMU blocks (which is likely to happen under heavy load), it will have to
seek between the two. Allocating the log blocks from the slog pool
instead of the main pool avoids these unnecessary seeks.
This commit makes ZFS use the slog on datasets with logbias=throughput.

increase with some large commit sizes, and no negative effect in other
cases.

Add FASTWRITE algorithm for synchronous writes.
Currently, ZIL blocks are spread over vdevs using hint block pointers
managed by the ZIL commit code and passed to metaslab_alloc(). Spreading
log blocks accross vdevs is important for performance: indeed, using
mutliple disks in parallel decreases the ZIL commit latency, which is
the main performance metric for synchronous writes. However, the current
implementation suffers from the following issues:
1) It would be best if the ZIL module was not aware of such low-level
details. They should be handled by the ZIO and metaslab modules;
2) Because the hint block pointer is managed per log, simultaneous
commits from multiple logs might use the same vdevs at the same time,
which is inefficient;
3) Because dmu_write() does not honor the block pointer hint, indirect
writes are not spread.
The naive solution of rotating the metaslab rotor each time a block is
allocated for the ZIL or dmu_sync() doesn't work in practice because the
first ZIL block to be written is actually allocated during the previous
commit. Consequently, when metaslab_alloc() decides the vdev for this
block, it will do so while a bunch of other allocations are happening at
the same time (from dmu_sync() and other ZILs). This means the vdev for
this block is chosen more or less at random. When the next commit
happens, there is a high chance (especially when the number of blocks
per commit is slightly less than the number of the disks) that one disk
will have to write two blocks (with a potential seek) while other disks
are sitting idle, which defeats spreading and increases the commit
latency.
This commit introduces a new concept in the metaslab allocator:
fastwrites. Basically, each top-level vdev maintains a counter
indicating the number of synchronous writes (from dmu_sync() and the
ZIL) which have been allocated but not yet completed. When the metaslab
is called with the FASTWRITE flag, it will choose the vdev with the
least amount of pending synchronous writes. If there are multiple vdevs
with the same value, the first matching vdev (starting from the rotor)
is used. Once metaslab_alloc() has decided which vdev the block is
allocated to, it updates the fastwrite counter for this vdev.
The rationale goes like this: when an allocation is done with
FASTWRITE, it "reserves" the vdev until the data is written. Until then,
all future allocations will naturally avoid this vdev, even after a full
rotation of the rotor. As a result, pending synchronous writes at a
given point in time will be nicely spread over all vdevs. This contrasts
with the previous algorithm, which is based on the implicit assumption
that blocks are written instantaneously after they're allocated.
metaslab_fastwrite_mark() and metaslab_fastwrite_unmark() are used to
manually increase or decrease fastwrite counters, respectively. They
should be used with caution, as there is no per-BP tracking of fastwrite
information, so leaks and "double-unmarks" are possible. There is,
however, an assert in the vdev teardown code which will fire if the
fastwrite counters are not zero when the pool is exported or the vdev
removed. Note that as stated above, marking is also done implictly by
metaslab_alloc().
ZIO also got a new FASTWRITE flag; when it is used, ZIO will pass it to
the metaslab when allocating (assuming ZIO does the allocation, which is
only true in the case of dmu_sync). This flag will also trigger an
unmark when zio_done() fires.
A side-effect of the new algorithm is that when a ZIL stops being used,
its last block can stay in the pending state (allocated but not yet
written) for a long time, polluting the fastwrite counters. To avoid
that, I've implemented a somewhat crude but working solution which
unmarks these pending blocks in zil_sync(), thus guaranteeing that
linguering fastwrites will get pruned at each sync event.
The best performance improvements are observed with pools using a large
number of top-level vdevs and heavy synchronous write workflows
(especially indirect writes and concurrent writes from multiple ZILs).
Real-life testing shows a 200% to 300% performance increase with
indirect writes and various commit sizes.

Currently, the size of read and write requests on vdevs is aligned
according to the vdev's ashift, allocating a new ZIO buffer and padding
if need be.
This makes sense for write requests to prevent read/modify/write if the
write happens to be smaller than the device's internal block size.
For reads however, the rationale is less clear. It seems that the
original code aligns reads because, on Solaris, device drivers will
outright refuse unaligned requests.
We don't have that issue on Linux. Indeed, Linux block devices are able
to accept requests of any size, and take care of alignment issues
themselves.
As a result, there's no point in enforcing alignment for read requests
on Linux. This is a nice optimization opportunity for two reasons:
- We remove a memory allocation in a heavily-used code path;
- The request gets aligned in the lowest layer possible, which shrinks
the path that the additional, useless padding data has to travel.
For example, when using 4k-sector drives that lie about their sector
size, using 512b read requests instead of 4k means that there will
be less data traveling down the ATA/SCSI interface, even though the
drive actually reads 4k from the platter.
The only exception is raidz, because raidz needs to read the whole
allocated block for parity.
This patch removes alignment enforcement for read requests, except on
raidz. Note that we also remove an assertion that checks that we're
aligning a top-level vdev I/O, because that's not the case anymore for
repair writes that results from failed reads.

Remove vmem_size() consumers
There are currently three vmem_size() consumers all of which are
part of the ARC implemention. However, since the expected behavior
of the Linux and Solaris virtual memory subsystems are so different
the behavior in each of these instances needs to be reevaluated.
* arc_evict_needed() - This is actually dead code. Arena support
was never added to the SPL and zio_arena is always NULL. This
support isn't needed so we simply remove this dead code.
* arc_memory_throttle() - On Solaris where virtual memory constitutes
almost all of the address space we can reasonably expect there to be
a fairly large amount free. However, on Linux by default we only
have about 100MB total and that's heavily used by the ARC. So the
expectation on Linux is that this will usually be a small value.
Therefore we remove the vmem_size() check for i386 systems because
the expectation is that it will be less than the zfs_write_limit_max.
* arc_init() - Here vmem_size() is used to initially size the ARC.
Since the ARC is currently backed by the virtual address space it
makes sense to use this as a limit on the ARC for 32-bit systems.
This code can be removed when the ARC is backed by the page cache.

Fix zfs_txg_timeout module parameter
Allow the zfs_txg_timeout variable to be dynamically tuned at run
time. By pulling it down out of the variable declaration it will
be evaluted each time through the loop.
The zfs_txg_timeout variable is now declared extern in a the common
sys/txg.h header rather than locally in dsl_scan.c. This prevents
potential type mismatches if the global variable needs to be used
elsewhere.
Move the module_param() code in to the same source file where
zfs_txg_timeout is declared. This is the most logical location.

Fix zfs_write_limit_max integer size mismatch on 32-bit systems
Commit c409e4647f221ab724a0bd10c480ac95447203c3 introduced a
number of module parameters. This required several types to be
changed to accomidate the required module parameters Linux macros.
Unfortunately, arc.c contained its own extern definition of the
zfs_write_limit_max variable and its type was not updated to be
consistent with its dsl_pool.c counterpart. If the variable had
been properly marked extern in a common header, then gcc would
have generated a warning and this would not have slipped through.
The result of this was that the ARC unconditionally expected
zfs_write_limit_max to be 64-bit. Unfortunately, the largest size
integer module parameter that Linux supports is unsigned long, which
varies in size depending on the host system's native word size. The
effect was that on 32-bit systems, ARC incorrectly performed 64-bit
operations on a 32-bit value by reading the neighboring 32 bits as
the upper 32 bits of the 64-bit value.
We correct that by changing the extern declaration to use the unsigned
long type and move these extern definitions in to the common arc.h
header. This should make ARC correctly treat zfs_write_limit_max as a
32-bit value on 32-bit systems.
