  • OpenZFS support merged into mainline FreeBSD

    From OSnews@21:1/5 to All on Wed Aug 26 00:45:00 2020
    Following ongoing work for over a year on moving to OpenZFS for FreeBSD';s ZFS file-system support, FreeBSD HEAD overnight has imported the OpenZFS code-base.

    ZFS - almost another casualty of Larry Ellison. I';m damn glad it';s managed to live on.

    What's the difference between ZFS as it's now and OpenZFS ?

    "ZFS" is the version from Oracle Solaris that's developed (probably not
    very much any more...) closed source at Oracle. IIRC OpenZFS is the
    version of ZFS that stems from illumos, which forked from OpenSolaris.
    Oracle ZFS' version number grows, while OpenZFS' is fixed and new
    functionality is implemented as "features" on OpenZFS, see man
    zpool-features.
