ebuild for new releas 0.7.0

working ebuild w/ small warnings regarding use of "BuildDir()" in SConscript files.
init-script files/zfs-fuse is the same as in the current 0.6.9-r1 in portage.
Comment 2 Stefan G. Weichinger 2011-03-14 16:52:38 UTC
Created attachment 265849 [details]
updated ebuild for 0.7.0

removed warnings by patching the SConscript-files.

It builds OK here without those scons-warnings, pls someone test it ...

zfs-fuse-0.7.0

maint-branch, correction regarding initd-script
Comment 5 Marcin Mirosław 2011-03-15 21:45:18 UTC
As i can see this is live ebuild, not ebuild for version 0.7.0 . And still doesn't respect CFLAGS/LDFLAGS/CC. Patch from bug #332395 , with small changes, could solve this problem. (btw, i'll try refresh those patch).

Marcin, pls check #362431 as well, I tried to add your patch there.

been running like stable for me for months off my x86 overlay. not that this answers the bump question. :)

stable here as well for months, just as feedback to the devs.
bump-q still open, yes ;-)

Weird. How come this is still not in the tree, after nearly a year?

Samuli Suominen masked sys-fs/zfs-fuse-0.6.9 for removal around the time of my previous comment citing several bug reports, including this one.

At this point, I have mostly switched to using the 9999 ebuild for the ZFS kernel modules from the pinkbyte overlay, but perhaps this could be made a tracker bug for the inclusion of sys-fs/zfs-fuse-0.7.0. That would enable users of ZFS-Fuse to coordinate efforts to resolve the issues here.

Just tried that, and

So it’s useless on any modern system. :/
(The “sping” overlay has a zfs-9999 too, but it also doesn’t compile, and for harder to fix reasons.)

Seems there is no ZFS on Linux. :(

That is issue 83 at the ZFS On Linux bug tracker:

https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/issues/83

As a workaround, you can set CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY. That setting was introduced after CONFIG_PREEMPT wiith the claim that it made things better for people doing low-latency audio work. I have been using it for a while with no discernible increase in desktop performance, so I suspect that you could use it until the issue in the ZFS kernel module is fixed.

Very good. :) I do audio work, but only on Windows (because of the lack of the software on Linux :/), so this is welcome. :)
Comment 18 Richard Yao (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-01-15 21:33:17 UTC
Just as a clarification, I meant to write "no discernible decrease in desktop performance", not "no discernible increase in desktop performance". I realized this after Navid's response.

Also, while I am using CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY on my desktop, I have not yet switched to using ZFS as my root filesystem. I have been working toward getting a server with advanced format drive to boot off a raidz2 array with ashift=12..

Zachary Bedell did some work on getting Gentoo to boot off ZFS last year, but his overlay is mostly broken with the exception of his genkernel-9999 ebuild. Currently, there are numerous issues that occur when trying to do a new stage3 install on ZFS. After I have my server booting off ZFS, I will try writing some documentation for people interested in booting off ZFS.

BTW: I noticed there is a full CONFIG_PREEMPT. Why not select that on a desktop system?

CONFIG_PREEMPT and CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY take different approaches toward implementing kernel preemption. Right now, the ZFSOnLinux code is incompatible with the approach taken by CONFIG_PREEMPT.
Comment 22 Marc Schiffbauer gentoo-dev 2024-01-14 11:14:16 UTC
This bug should be closed with OBSOLETE as zfs is in the tree as sys-fs/zfs and sys-fs/zfs-kmod
