This package will be kept in sync with the latest openzfs 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 2.3.4 supports kernel versions 4.18 - 6.16. When kernel 6.17 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.

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Please do not mark this package as out of date without checking the kernel compatibility first.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

Something's wrong here, maybe? Failed to load ZFS module stack. Load the module manually by running 'insmod <location>/zfs.ko' as root.

Ok, the git packages use git now and are tied to a specific commit.

demizer commented on 2014-04-20 18:30 (UTC)

Ok everyone, the zfs-lts packages are in AUR. They are also included in the archzfs repository. The lts packages use the official releases from ZFSonLinux.org and do not contain any patches. demizer

Upgrade went just fine, thanks!

demizer commented on 2014-04-20 04:16 (UTC)

@jalley you should use: systemctl enable zfs.target We used to maintain a single zfs.service file, but the systemd units included with ZOL are more robust and include support for zfs nfs shares. demizer

jalley commented on 2014-04-20 03:55 (UTC)

What systemd units should be active with the new packages? I appear to have all of these available: zfs-import-cache.service zfs-mount.service zfs.service zfs-import-scan.service zfs-share.service zfs.target But zfs.service is erroring out "Cannot add dependency job for unit zfs.service, ignoring: Unit zfs.service failed to load: No such file or directory."

Great job, just built the new package set and after enabling zfs.service, everything seems fine under 3.14.1-1.

Panzerino commented on 2014-04-19 09:06 (UTC)

Ok everyone the zfs-git packages are in AUR. If you are using the archzfs repository, you will be prompted to replace the old packages. You will also need to enable the zfs target: systemctl enable zfs.target The PKGBUILDS don't use the devtools to fetch the git repos, I provided the patches manually as it allows me greater control. Let me know if you all have any problems. I will be starting on the lts packages tomorrow. demizer

Nice work! Gonna test these right away, fingers crossed :-P

demizer commented on 2014-04-19 00:21 (UTC)

@justinkb, I only have to update the git patches on every minor kernel release 3.13 -> 3.14. Due to kernel API changes. This I don't mind as it is pretty easy. And it allows me to track problems down if they were to come up. The ZOL master branch changes every day.
