Bugzilla Bug 177010

Gentoo has a reputation for being on the cutting edge,and ZFS has been making a
lot of noise lately, so I browsed over to the zfs-fuse wiki and what do I find
but  an ebuild. I tested it, it builds cleanly under both portage and paludis,
and it seems quite stable. Perhaps this could be included in the tree, maybe
masked?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Untar the archive wherever you put your repositories
(/usr/local/portage/zfs-fuse for me) and add it to PORTDIR_OVERLAY
2.emerge -av zfs-fuse
3.Read the doc that is given in the post-install einfo's to learn how to use
ZFS




The author's blog is at http://zfs-on-fuse.blogspot.com/

Please, attach the ebuild here as plaintext...

Okay. I'll also include the necessary patches.

naaah... thanks alot for the ebuild, I'm going to test'n'commit it as soon as i
can :)

They have now a initscript in the mercurial repo:
http://www.wizy.org/mercurial/zfs-fuse/trunk?f=79c0e95a9290;file=contrib/zfs-fuse.initd

well, looks like we need an init script as well, don't we?
I still need to read the guide in detail, but else would stard zfs-fuse (or
run-zfs-fuse) if not an init script?

So far I added the ebuilds into the tree. Please provide me with as much
feedback as needed, as I'd like to get it rockin'solid anytime soon ;)

Christian Parpart.

/etc/init.d/zfs-fuse

Still no init script and wizy.org is down all the time.
Here is mine. It's dump simple but seems to work.

a little later, but please check out the rc script i've committed. just add it
to boot rc level. it should work fine.

however, i'm a little concerned about the development process a little, as no
real updates has been made yet, but let's be a little more optimistic ;)

besides, do you know where to get the man-pages legally? so that we can include
them?

zfs-fuse-0.4.0_beta1-no_prefetch.patch


Disable zfs's prefetch. This increases read performance quite a lot. This
actually makes zfs-fuse usable on my low spec system (700 Mhz P3, 256 Mb).
Taken from:
http://groups.google.com/group/zfs-fuse/tree/browse_frm/month/2007-09/326edc29c03ca42a?rnum=1&_done=%2Fgroup%2Fzfs-fuse%2Fbrowse_frm%2Fmonth%2F2007-09%3F#doc_326edc29c03ca42a

How about calling 'zfs umount -f -a' before killing the daemon ?

Stupid me. Wrong and brain dead file. Need some sleep. Sorry.

This one should work ;)

Everything's in the tree, though, post-closing. For any new requests wrt
zfs-fuse, please file a new bug.
