This package will be kept in sync with the openzfs latest stable release, for the kernel versions officially supported by the openzfs project.

The openzfs project specifies the supported kernels in the release notes (LINK).

E.g. for the openzfs 2.3.1, supported kernel versions are 4.18 - 6.13. When the kernel 6.14 is released for Arch, zfs-linux will not be updated until the 6.14 kernel's compatibility is announced by the openzfs project.

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Please do not mark this package as out of date without checking the kernel compatibility first.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

but it still remains that version 2.2.7 of zfs is extremely unstable and has caused many errors in journalctl like kernel bugs and thread timeout.

I have also issues with zfs 2.2.7 and linux 6.12.7-arch1-1. After a couple days the system gets unresponsive. In dmesg log there is a list of "blocked tasks". Local & SSH login is unresponsive, only way is to reset the hardware. I downgraded back to zfs 2.2.3 and linux 6.8.2-arch2-1 which is rock solid.

Datasets are unencrypted and was sending unencrypted data. I was using the required kernel, which was 6.12.6.arch1-1.
After downgrading to zfs 2.2.4 and running a scrub on all pools, the curruption was magically gone, but it still remains that version 2.2.7 of zfs is extremely unstable and has caused many errors in journalctl like kernel bugs and thread timeout.

Is your dataset encrypted, and if so was this send|receive with encrypted or unencrypted data? What kernel are you using?

After upgrading and immediatly trying to do a backup with snapshots, during the zfs send/ zfs recv I suffured from data curruption of not only my data but also of the pool metadata. All I could confirm that this is not a hardware issue and thus leads me to believe this is a problem of this package or also could be zfs-utils. I would advise to downgrade again to the 2.2.4 version of ZFS.

I have taken over the package and downgraded to kernel 6.10 for the time being. The 6.11 kernel is not compatible with ZFS 2.2.6, errors have been reported in practical use.

Note that the archzfs project is being restarted, additional information is available here: https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/issues/545

I noticed that 6.11 is being used as the new zfs-linux base, but it is currently experimental upstream, see it here: https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/issues/545 and here: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/discussions/16574 Wouldn't it be safer to use 6.10 as the base until zfs 2.7?

Appears archfs is abandoned now. Hopefully someone capable is able to get it going again.

This project is abandoned and no longer supported by the maintainer, more discussion is happening here: https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/pull/550

gmtch commented on 2024-09-18 08:03 (UTC)

Please can we have an update on the status of this package? It is now two months since I was able to install a new kernel

Is this the issue?
