Ok so it seems 3.14.2-1 was built with GCC 4.9. So we can't build these packages until GCC 4.9 is released to stable, which I'm not sure when that'll happen. Sorry guys and gals!

Well, i'm trying to build the updated packages and it's not happening. It seems CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is set in the kernel config, but this feature was added for GCC 4.9, which is still in testing. Not sure how to fix this yet... Here is the offending output from config.log when building spl.git: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=kENT3kdp

@PelPix, for the newest kernels, there are often api changes in the kernel that prevent the stable ZFSonLinux releases from building. We attempted to just pull in the patches of the changed API, and this worked for about six months, but in the latest kernel (3.14) the patches required were too many. My testing apparatus is virtually non-existent, so I didn't feel comfortable picking and choosing patches to get the build working again, so we abandoned the original package names for the zfs-git and zfs-lts packages. If you want peace of mind, you should be using lts anyway, but for me the git builds are perfectly fine. I am working on setting up a testing environment now with qemu to re-factor the mkinitcpio hooks. The testing environment will also allow me to run the builds through regression tests in the Arch userland to make sure everything works right.

How difficult would it be to adapt to mainline versions instead of just stable? Would you describe this as a module that needs little patching to be brought up to mainline, or a lot of patching? I'd be willing to help.

It's working fine for me on multiple systems. What architecture are you using?

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.

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!
