I personally +don't use any of the in-kernel modules, but I still have modules enabled for +this purpose. You can see my kernel configuration in this repository as well. + +If you are building ZFS for a different kernel version, specify the kernel +version in the `KERNEL_VERSION` variable. Here is an example: + + KERNEL_VERSION=5.8.9 cpt b zfs + +This will build for the target version, so you don't need to boot that kernel +in order to build the module. + + +Dependencies +------------ + +This package depends on 'libtirpc', but will probably link to more packages +on your system, such as util-linux, libressl, and zlib. Even though I have +tried linking all statically, it doesn't work. + + +Making ZFS datasets available on boot +------------------------------------- + +I personally don't have my root under ZFS, you will need further reading if that +is your goal. I have two init scripts on '/etc/init' for mounting and unmounting +ZFS. + + +/etc/init/zfs.early-boot: + + modprobe zfs + zpool import -a -f + zfs load-key -a + zfs mount -a + + +/etc/init/zfs.pre.shutdown: + + zfs umount -a |
