zfs-linux (2.2.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium zfs-linux has now opted-in usr-merge. No behavioral changes should be noted. Some tools that do not require root privilege in zfsutils-linux have been moved from sbin to bin: arc_summary, zvol_wait, zilstat. Links are added in sbin to avoid breaking existing scripts. Users calling these binraies should update all absolute paths used. As an exception, the name /usr/bin/arcstat is taken by another different package, nordugrid-arc-client. Thus zfs-linux still uses /usr/sbin/arcstat. -- Shengqi Chen Wed, 02 Jun 2024 15:26:37 +0800 zfs-linux (0.8.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium The SIMD acceleration has been fixed in this upstream release. Users could use the following two commands to double check: $ cat /sys/module/zfs/parameters/zfs_vdev_raidz_impl $ cat /sys/module/zcommon/parameters/zfs_fletcher_4_impl Another notable change is the parallelization of the KABI checks during the configure stage, which may significantly boost the postinst stage of zfs-dkms that builds the kernel module. -- Mo Zhou Sat, 25 Jan 2020 13:26:02 +0800 zfs-linux (0.8.0-1) experimental; urgency=medium ZFS 0.8.0 introduced the following NEW features: * Native encryption * Raw encrypted 'zfs send/receive' * Device removal * Pool checkpoints * Pool TRIM * Pool initialization * Project accounting and quota * Channel programs * Pyzfs * Python 3 compatibility * Direct IO And the following performance improvements: * Sequential scrub and resilver * Allocation classes * Administrative commands * Parallel allocation * Deferred resilvers * ZFS Intent Log (ZIL) * Volumes * QAT Details about the features and performance improvements can be found at: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/releases/tag/zfs-0.8.0 NEWS on the Debian packaging side: * ZFS doesn't depend on the spl-dkms package anymore, because upstream had merged SPL source into ZFS source tree, and that module is now included in the zfs-dkms package. -- Mo Zhou Fri, 24 May 2019 03:27:43 +0000
