== Motivation and Context The current implementation of 'sharenfs' and 'sharesmb' relies on the use of the sharetab file. The use of this file is os-specific and not required by linux or freebsd. Currently the code must maintain updates to this file which adds complexity and presents a significant performance impact when sharing many datasets. In addition, concurrently running 'zfs sharenfs' command results in missing entries in the sharetab file leading to unexpected failures. == Description This change removes the sharetab logic from the linux and freebsd implementation of 'sharenfs' and 'sharesmb'. It still preserves an os-specific library which contains the logic required for sharing NFS or SMB. The following entry points exist in the vastly simplified libshare library: - sa_enable_share -- shares a dataset but may not commit the change - sa_disable_share -- unshares a dataset but may not commit the change - sa_is_shared -- determine if a dataset is shared - sa_commit_share -- notify NFS/SMB subsystem to commit the shares - sa_validate_shareopts -- determine if sharing options are valid The sa_commit_share entry point is provided as a performance enhancement and is not required. The sa_enable_share/sa_disable_share may commit the share as part of the implementation. Libshare provides a framework for both NFS and SMB but some operating systems may not fully support these protocols or all features of the protocol. NFS Operation: For linux, libshare updates /etc/exports.d/zfs.exports to add and remove shares and then commits the changes by invoking 'exportfs -r'. This file, is automatically read by the kernel NFS implementation which makes for better integration with the NFS systemd service. For FreeBSD, libshare updates /etc/zfs/exports to add and remove shares and then commits the changes by sending a SIGHUP to mountd. SMB Operation: For linux, libshare adds and removes files in /var/lib/samba/usershares by calling the 'net' command directly. There is no need to commit the changes. FreeBSD does not support SMB. == Performance Results To test sharing performance we created a pool with an increasing number of datasets and invoked various zfs actions that would enable and disable sharing. The performance testing was limited to NFS sharing. The following tests were performed on an 8 vCPU system with 128GB and a pool comprised of 4 50GB SSDs: Scale testing: - Share all filesystems in parallel -- zfs sharenfs=on <dataset> & - Unshare all filesystems in parallel -- zfs sharenfs=off <dataset> & Functional testing: - share each filesystem serially -- zfs share -a - unshare each filesystem serially -- zfs unshare -a - reset sharenfs property and unshare -- zfs inherit -r sharenfs <pool> For 'zfs sharenfs=on' scale testing we saw an average reduction in time of 89.43% and for 'zfs sharenfs=off' we saw an average reduction in time of 83.36%. Functional testing also shows a huge improvement: - zfs share -- 97.97% reduction in time - zfs unshare -- 96.47% reduction in time - zfs inhert -r sharenfs -- 99.01% reduction in time Reviewed-by: Matt Ahrens <matt@delphix.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Reviewed-by: Ryan Moeller <ryan@ixsystems.com> Reviewed-by: Bryant G.

ZFS Test Suite README
- Building and installing the ZFS Test Suite
The ZFS Test Suite runs under the test-runner framework. This framework is built along side the standard ZFS utilities and is included as part of zfs-test package. The zfs-test package can be built from source as follows:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg-utils
The resulting packages can be installed using the rpm or dpkg command as appropriate for your distributions. Alternately, if you have installed ZFS from a distributions repository (not from source) the zfs-test package may be provided for your distribution.
- Installed from source
$ rpm -ivh ./zfs-test*.rpm, or
$ dpkg -i ./zfs-test*.deb,
- Installed from package repository
$ yum install zfs-test
$ apt-get install zfs-test
- Running the ZFS Test Suite
The pre-requisites for running the ZFS Test Suite are:
- Three scratch disks
- Specify the disks you wish to use in the $DISKS variable, as a space delimited list like this: DISKS='vdb vdc vdd'. By default the zfs-tests.sh script will construct three loopback devices to be used for testing: DISKS='loop0 loop1 loop2'.
- A non-root user with a full set of basic privileges and the ability to sudo(8) to root without a password to run the test.
- Specify any pools you wish to preserve as a space delimited list in the $KEEP variable. All pools detected at the start of testing are added automatically.
- The ZFS Test Suite will add users and groups to test machine to verify functionality. Therefore it is strongly advised that a dedicated test machine, which can be a VM, be used for testing.
Once the pre-requisites are satisfied simply run the zfs-tests.sh script:
$ /usr/share/zfs/zfs-tests.sh
Alternately, the zfs-tests.sh script can be run from the source tree to allow developers to rapidly validate their work. In this mode the ZFS utilities and modules from the source tree will be used (rather than those installed on the system). In order to avoid certain types of failures you will need to ensure the ZFS udev rules are installed. This can be done manually or by ensuring some version of ZFS is installed on the system.
$ ./scripts/zfs-tests.sh
The following zfs-tests.sh options are supported:
-v Verbose zfs-tests.sh output When specified additional
information describing the test environment will be logged
prior to invoking test-runner. This includes the runfile
being used, the DISKS targeted, pools to keep, etc.
-q Quiet test-runner output. When specified it is passed to
test-runner(1) which causes output to be written to the
console only for tests that do not pass and the results
summary.
-x Remove all testpools, dm, lo, and files (unsafe). When
specified the script will attempt to remove any leftover
configuration from a previous test run. This includes
destroying any pools named testpool, unused DM devices,
and loopback devices backed by file-vdevs. This operation
can be DANGEROUS because it is possible that the script
will mistakenly remove a resource not related to the testing.
-k Disable cleanup after test failure. When specified the
zfs-tests.sh script will not perform any additional cleanup
when test-runner exists. This is useful when the results of
a specific test need to be preserved for further analysis.
-f Use sparse files directly instead of loopback devices for
the testing. When running in this mode certain tests will
be skipped which depend on real block devices.
-c Only create and populate constrained path
-I NUM Number of iterations
-d DIR Create sparse files for vdevs in the DIR directory. By
default these files are created under /var/tmp/.
-s SIZE Use vdevs of SIZE (default: 4G)
-r RUNFILES Run tests in RUNFILES (default: common.run,linux.run)
-t PATH Run single test at PATH relative to test suite
-T TAGS Comma separated list of tags (default: 'functional')
-u USER Run single test as USER (default: root)
The ZFS Test Suite allows the user to specify a subset of the tests via a runfile or list of tags.
The format of the runfile is explained in test-runner(1), and the files that zfs-tests.sh uses are available for reference under /usr/share/zfs/runfiles. To specify a custom runfile, use the -r option:
$ /usr/share/zfs/zfs-tests.sh -r my_tests.run
Otherwise user can set needed tags to run only specific tests.
- Test results
While the ZFS Test Suite is running, one informational line is printed at the
end of each test, and a results summary is printed at the end of the run. The
results summary includes the location of the complete logs, which is logged in
the form /var/tmp/test_results/[ISO 8601 date]. A normal test run launched
with the zfs-tests.sh wrapper script will look something like this:
$ /usr/share/zfs/zfs-tests.sh -v -d /tmp/test
