Not an bug, I think. But may be interesting to somebody. When I have tried to compile zfs on gentoo hardened system, I faced a number of problems. They are using some patches to kernel and plugins to gcc, that makes some structs const by default, as I understand.
This patches I made to make it compile successfully:

Interesting, yes to support the hardened Gentoo kernel we'd have to add autoconf checks for this sort of thing so we could just do the right thing. I'm not opposed to if someone proposes patches.

Pull request #767 is now open with a patch that resolves this.

ryao added a commit to ryao/zfs that referenced this issue Jun 29, 2012
Gentoo Hardened kernels include the PaX/GRSecurity patches. They use a
dialect of C that relies on a GCC plugin. In particular, struct
file_operations has been marked do_const in the PaX/GRSecurity dialect,
which causes GCC to consider all instances of it as const. This caused
failures in the autotools checks and the ZFS source code.

To address this, we modify the autotools checks to take into account
differences between the PaX C dialect and the regular C dialect. We also
modify struct zfs_acl's z_ops member to be a pointer to a function
pointer table. Lastly, we modify zpl_put_link() to address a PaX change
to the function prototype of nd_get_link().  This avoids compiler errors
in the PaX/GRSecurity dialect.

Note that the change in zpl_put_link() causes a warning that becomes a
build failure when debugging is enabled. Fixing that warning requires
ryao/spl@5ca50ef.

Closes openzfs#484

The backtrace was an infinite loop of `vdev_queue_io_to_issue()` invoking
`zio_execute()` until it overran the stack. vdev_queue_io_to_issue() will ony
invoke `zio_execute()` on raidz vdevs when aggregation I/Os are generated to
improve aggregation continuity. These I/Os do not trigger any writes. However,
it appears that they can be generated in such a way that they recurse
infinitely upon return to `vdev_queue_io_to_issue()`. As a consequence, we see
the number of parents by 1 each time the recursion returns to
`vdev_raidz_io_start()`.

The backtrace was an infinite loop of `vdev_queue_io_to_issue()` invoking
`zio_execute()` until it overran the stack. vdev_queue_io_to_issue() will ony
invoke `zio_execute()` on raidz vdevs when aggregation I/Os are generated to
improve aggregation continuity. These I/Os do not trigger any writes. However,
it appears that they can be generated in such a way that they recurse
infinitely upon return to `vdev_queue_io_to_issue()`. As a consequence, we see
the number of parents by 1 each time the recursion returns to
`vdev_raidz_io_start()`.

This occurred when ztest was simulating a scrub under heavy I/O load. Under
those circumstances, it was possible for a mix of noop I/Os for aggregation
continuity and the I/O elevator to generate arbitrarily deep recursion.

This patch modifies ZFS to propapage a recursion counter inside the zio_t
objects such that IOs will be redispatched upon reaching a given recursion
depth.  We can detect long call chains and dispatch to another ZIO taskq. We
cut in-line when we do this to minimize the potential for taskq exhaustion that
can prevent a zio from notifying its parent.

continuity and the I/O elevator to generate arbitrarily deep recursion.

This patch modifies ZFS to propapage a recursion counter inside the zio_t

This occurred when ztest was simulating a scrub under heavy I/O load. Under
those circumstances, it was possible for a mix of noop I/Os for aggregation
continuity and the I/O elevator to generate arbitrarily deep recursion.

This patch modifies ZFS to propapage a recursion counter inside the zio_t
objects such that IOs will be redispatched upon reaching a given recursion
depth.  We can detect long call chains and dispatch to another ZIO taskq. We
cut in-line when we do this to minimize the potential for taskq exhaustion that
can prevent a zio from notifying its parent.

This occurred when ztest was simulating a scrub under heavy I/O load. Under
those circumstances, it was possible for a mix of noop I/Os for aggregation
continuity and the I/O elevator to generate arbitrarily deep recursion.

This patch modifies ZFS to propapage a recursion counter inside the zio_t
objects such that IOs will be redispatched upon reaching a given recursion
depth.  We can detect long call chains and dispatch to another ZIO taskq. We
cut in-line when we do this to minimize the potential for taskq exhaustion that
can prevent a zio from notifying its parent.

This occurred when ztest was simulating a scrub under heavy I/O load. Under
those circumstances, it was possible for a mix of noop I/Os for aggregation
continuity and the I/O elevator to generate arbitrarily deep recursion.

This patch modifies ZFS to propapage a recursion counter inside the zio_t
objects such that IOs will be redispatched upon reaching a given recursion
depth.  We can detect long call chains and dispatch to another ZIO taskq. We
cut in-line when we do this to minimize the potential for taskq exhaustion that
can prevent a zio from notifying its parent.

This occurred when ztest was simulating a scrub under heavy I/O load. Under
those circumstances, it was possible for a mix of noop I/Os for aggregation
continuity and the I/O elevator to generate arbitrarily deep recursion.

This patch modifies ZFS to propapage a recursion counter inside the zio_t
objects such that IOs will be redispatched upon reaching a given recursion
depth.  We can detect long call chains and dispatch to another ZIO taskq. We
cut in-line when we do this to minimize the potential for taskq exhaustion that
can prevent a zio from notifying its parent.

This occurred when ztest was simulating a scrub under heavy I/O load. Under
those circumstances, it was possible for a mix of noop I/Os for aggregation
continuity and the I/O elevator to generate arbitrarily deep recursion.

This patch modifies ZFS to propapage a recursion counter inside the zio_t
objects such that IOs will be redispatched upon reaching a given recursion
depth.  We can detect long call chains and dispatch to another ZIO taskq. We
cut in-line when we do this to minimize the potential for taskq exhaustion that
can prevent a zio from notifying its parent.
