This package will be kept in sync with the openzfs latest stable release and the kernels officially supported by it.

For the supported kernel versions, refer to the respective openzfs release notes (LINK).

E.g. openzfs 2.3.1 supports kernel versions 4.18 - 6.13. When kernel 6.14 is released for Arch, zfs-linux will not be updated until the openzfs project announces that it's compatible. This will most likely happen with the next openzfs release.

The kernel compatibility of the upcoming openzfs release can be seen in their META file (LINK).

For those wishing to use openzfs with unsupported kernels, do note that this could lead to serious issues, including data loss, even though such a zfs-linux package might build and install cleanly. Have reliable backups and use such a package at your peril.

Please do not mark this package as out of date without checking the kernel compatibility first. Thank you!

Here is a link to the package I put together: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4993482/zfs-0.6.0_rc10-0.src.tar.gz sorry about that.

Can someone please post a patch which works with rc10?

Here are the updated PKGBUILDS for 3.5.3 kernel. Not sure about stability yet though... You will need to rebuild spl and zfs for the new kernel, with spl being rebuilt and installed first. spl: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=jm5Wt3br zfs: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=pssfjCqW Devoted: The patch is located in the tarball link on this page.

I have recently migrated to systemd (mixed w/ legacy rc.conf) and while checking the boot performance I found that loading the zfs module takes about 8 seconds (intel i7-2600K). Pretty long... If zfs is not explicitely included in modules to be loaded (either rc.conf or modules-autoload.d) at startup and one relies on "/etc/rc.d/zfs start" to modprobe it, then it fails due to missing /dev/zfs. Having "modprobe zfs" in the rc.d script does not help, the script continues w/o waiting for the module to be actually loaded and usable. At least within systemd... An extra while loop in the rc.d script to check for /dev/zfs existence might be helpful. (I cannot confirm how it behaves w/o systemd.) EDIT: Adding udevadm settle --exit-if-exists=/dev/zfs to the rc.d/zfs might be a cleaner solution. https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/issues/381#issuecomment-4177269

Devoted: he was basing on my package, see the dropbox link.

Hi demizer, I have tried editing the PKGBUILD and using yours instead. Unfortunately it comes back with this: ==> Validating source files with md5sums... zfs-0.6.0-rc10.tar.gz ... Passed preempt.patch ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build zfs. ==> Restart building zfs ? [y/N] Why does it do this how how do I validate the preempt.patch? Thanks!

chungy commented on 2012-08-21 03:17 (UTC)

It might also be good to have both zfs and spl via DKMS, but probably as separate packages from this one.
