OpenZFS on Linux 0.6.5.6 |
release |
Version 0.6.5.6 of OpenZFS on Linux, the native Linux kernel port of the ZFS filesystem, is now available at: https://zfsonlinux.org
Some notable improvements in version 0.6.5.6 are:
- Bugs fixes for case-insensitive filesystem support. Users running Samba servers that export ZFS filesystems will benefit from this update.
- Bug fixes and improved scalability for zvols. Support for asynchronous creation of device nodes. This fixes several hangs and allows pools with many zvols to be imported quickly.
- Add
-gLPto zpool subcommands to print vdev names as a GUID, a real path resolving all symbolic links, and as a full path. This change enables better ZFS integration in Ubuntu’s GRUB utilities. - Fix a corruption bug where, in certain circumstances,
zfs send -i(incremental send) can produce a stream which will result in incorrect sparse file contents on the target.
