ZFS File-System On Linux Keeps Marching Along
Posted by Michael Larabel on September 19, 2012
For those interested in the native port of ZFS to Linux, the work being done by LLNL and others continues to advance.
ZFS 0.6.0-rc11 along with a matching release of SPL, the Solaris Porting Layer, were released on Tuesday.
Brian Behlendorf announced the release of ZFS 0.6.0-rc11 with support for ZVOL-based SWAP devices, support for pre-emptible kernels, vastly improved msync() performance, improved behavior under low memory conditions, improved zpool import search behavior, zstreamdump from Illumos, zfs get -t datatype support, and a few fixes.
Some of these ZFS improvements were back-ported from the Illumos project.
More details can be found from the ZFS release announcement.
