@CoolGenie you need to wait until the zfs-linux package gets updated with the current kernel as dependency.

Anyone know why I'm getting: installing linux (5.4.2.arch1-1) breaks dependency 'linux=5.4.1.arch1-1' required by zfs-linux

Root on encrypted ZFS can be decrypted during boot when adding "zfs load-key -a" around line 54 in the mkinitcpio hook "/usr/lib/initcpio/hooks/zfs". @minextu maybe consider as permanent patch?

@dawnofman It didn't break anything but it's fixed now, thanks!

dunno whether this is relevant or not but: --libexecdir=/usr/lib/zfs-${zfsver} should be: --libexecdir=/usr/lib/zfs-${_zfsver} it is not the same variable; it is being built as: --libexecdir='/usr/lib/zfs-'

It's likely to be part of 0.8.2, but could e5db31349484e5e859c7a942eb15b98d68ce5b4d be cherry-picked to be included in this package? It restores SIMD compatibility on the latest 4.14.x/4.19.x/5.x kernels. Debian is already including this patch in their 0.8.1 package :)

@andybz zfs-utils and zfs-dkms have a different maintainer and I don't have access to update.
You can use https://github.com/archzfs/zfs-dkms and https://github.com/archzfs/zfs-utils in the meantime or update using the archzfs repo (http://archzfs.com)

I moved from zfs-dkms to this package to get ZFS 0.8.0, but I had trouble with no package actually providing zfs-utils=0.8.0.
I ended up just bumping the pkgver on the zfs-utils package to 0.8.0 and I'm OK again but I haven't worked out yet whether there's a packaging issue here or what.

The reason this happens with both the archzfs repo and the AUR package is because the non-dkms package is compiled against a specific version of the Linux kernel. When the Arch kenel gets updated, this package falls out of date. This is only ever the case for 1-2 days. As I understand it there is a certain amount of automation involved. Just be patient and wait for a day before trying to update again. No manual process is needed.

Got it. Thanks again! It's been a while since I encountered this problem, I've somehow forgotten about it... sorry for the hassle!

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!
