By the way you can find my fork here: https://github.com/darkbasic/zfs-dkms-staging-git/tree/fix/611 I'm writing from 6.11.2-arch1-1 using zfs-dkms from that repo right now.

darkbasic commented on 2024-10-06 08:30 (UTC)

2.3.0-rc1 is not an option for everybody: zfsbootmenu wouldn't support its feature set yet and you would be stuck with an unbootable system.

which, sadly, doesn't appear to be available as a dkms package or a zfs-linux package due to missing maintainer

That wouldn't be too hard to either package or maintain, I think there is simply little point in doing so right now util 2.3.x becomes stable.

Is 2.2.6 safe to run on 6.11?

I'm pretty sure it is and you can verify it yourself with a simple command:

git log -i --grep "linux"

c84a37ae93b5f2b32d30bee1cb942627c4c6caab 6f50f8e16b7c4a3f1925b41e3d47b479cd7b2d9f 90af1e83e8abb89668b82d859940a596b195fe75

These are the only compat commits that you would find on 2.3 outside of what's already on 2.2.6. 90af1e83e8abb89668b82d859940a596b195fe75 is a 6.10-only bugfix, 6f50f8e16b7c4a3f1925b41e3d47b479cd7b2d9f is the commit that I've asked to backport (all it does is suppressing some annoying warnings) while c84a37ae93b5f2b32d30bee1cb942627c4c6caab is another 6.10+ bugfix that was introduced AFTER 6.11 has been declared supported (so it would be nice to have but not considered critical by upstream).

@bjin would it be possible to co-maintain this package so that I can help you to timely add compat patches once stable kernels get released (and removing them once they get backported upstream)?

Is 2.2.6 safe to run on 6.11? Upstream claims > 6.10 is unsupported on 2.2.6 and suggest using 2.3.0-rc1 instead (which, sadly, doesn't appear to be available as a dkms package or a zfs-linux package due to missing maintainer).

Hi, could you please backport this? https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/16539 Thanks

@bjin - Thanks!

Your current PKGBUILD compiles, installs and operates correctly against both linux and -zen, which were released today, 16 Sep, and are each at 6.11.X.

Cheers

@bjin and @darkbasic - I left positive comments, and suggested others have a look at your zfs-dkms-staging effort at:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/zfs-dkms#comment-983162

Additionally, I added my personal observations concerning running native ZFS on Arch.

Cheers

@bjin and @darkbasic:

PERFECT - and now WE ARE IN BUSINESS! Thanks to each of you for your much appreciated efforts! Builds and installs correctly against multiple variant kernels, including 6.10!

@darkbasic: Added this patch, thanks for pointing this out.

This dkms package should compile fine with Linux 6.10 now.

darkbasic commented on 2024-07-20 12:32 (UTC)

@air-g4p try adding the patch I've mentioned in my previous comment, I'm sure it will work.

@darkbasic - No, I am not on s390x. I'm running an i7 on a 4 year old H/P optimus laptop with a Samsung PCIe-NVMe and with 16Gb of DDR4 and another 2Gb of DDR5 for the discrete nVidia GPU.

Only straight-up, pure Archlinux installed with all testing repos enabled, and as always, frequently fully updated and rebooted. The exact same way I have been running Arch for many years, and I do mean, way before this laptop.

Cheers
