Description

Port from OpenZFS
a584ef2605 Direct IO support

History

#1

Updated by Jerry Jelinek about 1 month ago

There is actually nothing to port from the OpenZFS commit a584ef2605. There are no actual changes to the ZFS code in that commit, just changes to their interface into Linux to enable the use of O_DIRECT. Instead, for illumos we need to enable the use of the (private) _FIODIRECTIO ioctl for ZFS.

Enabling the use of O_DIRECT on illumos is a separate issue.

#2

Updated by Jerry Jelinek about 1 month ago

There is nothing in the zfs test suite which uses the illumos directio function, so I wrote a simple test program and verified that directio fails on a zfs file without this change and that it succeeds after this change.
