This bug was fixed in the package zfs-linux - 0.6.5.6-0ubuntu10 --------------- zfs-linux (0.6.5.6-0ubuntu10) xenial; urgency=medium * Sync with relevant upstream fixes (LP: #1594871) - Fix user namespaces uid/gid mapping As described in torvalds/linux@5f3a4a2 the &init_user_ns, and not the current user_ns, should be passed to posix_acl_from_xattr() and posix_acl_to_xattr(). Conveniently the init_user_ns is available through the init credential (kcred). (upstream commit 874bd959f4f15b3d4b007160ee7ad3f4111dd341) ZFS #4177 - Fix ZPL miswrite of default POSIX ACL Commit 4967a3e introduced a typo that caused the ZPL to store the intended default ACL as an access ACL. Due to caching this problem may not become visible until the filesystem is remounted or the inode is evicted from the cache. Fix the typo. (upstream commit 98f03691a4c08f38ca4538c468e9523f8e6b24be) ZFS #4520 - Create unique partition labels When partitioning a device a name may be specified for each partition. Internally zfs doesn't use this partition name for anything so it has always just been set to "zfs". However this isn't optimal because udev will create symlinks using this name in /dev/disk/by-partlabel/. If the name isn't unique then all the links cannot be created. Therefore a random 64-bit value has been added to the partition label, i.e "zfs-1234567890abcdef". Additional information could be encoded here but since partitions may be reused that might result in confusion and it was decided against. (upstream commit fbffa53a5cdb9b796de5afc9be8c1f79619253d4) ZFS #4517 - Fix inverted logic on none elevator comparison Commit d1d7e2689db9e03f1 ("cstyle: Resolve C style issues") inverted the logic on the none elevator comparison. Fix this and make it cstyle warning clean. (upstream commit 60a4ea3f948f1596b92b666fc7dd21202544edbb) ZFS #4507 - Remove wrong ASSERT in annotate_ecksum When using large blocks like 1M, there will be more than UINT16_MAX qwords in one block, so this ASSERT would go off. Also, it is possible for the histogram to overflow. We cap them to UINT16_MAX to prevent this. (upstream commit 21ea9460fa880bb072a9ca9d845aef740f9d3af6) ZFS #4257 - Fix 'zpool import' blkid device names When importing a pool using the blkid cache only the device node path was added to the list of known paths for a device. This results in 'zpool import' always using the sdX names in preference to the 'path' name stored in the label. To fix the issue the blkid import path has been updated to add both the 'path', 'devid', and 'devname' names from the label to the known paths. A sanity check is done to ensure these paths do refer to the same device identified by blkid. (upstream commit c9ca152fd1de1b0fd959e772b9a25d14a891952b) ZFS #4523, #3043 - Use udev for partition detection When ZFS partitions a block device it must wait for udev to create both a device node and all the device symlinks. This process takes a variable length of time and depends on factors such how many links must be created, the complexity of the rules, etc. Complicating the situation further it is not uncommon for udev to create and then remove a link multiple times while processing the udev rules. In order to address this the zpool_label_disk_wait() function has been updated to use libudev. Until the registered system device acknowledges that it in fully initialized the function will wait. Once fully initialized all device links are checked and allowed to settle for 50ms. This makes it far more likely that all the device nodes will exist when the kernel modules need to open them. For systems without libudev an alternate zpool_label_disk_wait() was updated to include a settle time. In addition, the kernel modules were updated to include retry logic for this ENOENT case. Due to the improved checks in the utilities it is unlikely this logic will be invoked. However, if the rare event it is needed it will prevent a failure. (upstream commit 2cb77346cb698ae0c233c7baf8b4c787205b54e9) ZFS #4523, #3708, #4077, #4144, #4214, #4517 * Fix ztest truncated cache file (LP: #1587686) Commit efc412b updated spa_config_write() for Linux 4.2 kernels to truncate and overwrite rather than rename the cache file. This is the correct fix but it should have only been applied for the kernel build. In user space rename(2) is needed because ztest depends on the cache file.
