OpenZFS 2.3.3 Released With Linux 6.15 Support

([Linux Storage] 3 Hours Ago OpenZFS 2.3.3)


Following last week's release of [1]OpenZFS 2.2.8 , OpenZFS 2.3.3 is now available as the newest point release of this current stable series for this open-source ZFS file-system implementation on Linux and FreeBSD systems.

Most notable with OpenZFS 2.3.3 is now supporting the mainline Linux 6.15 kernel with various compatibility patches added. Linux 6.15 is supported by OpenZFS 2.3.3 all the way back through the old Linux 4.18 kernel and maintaining FreeBSD 13.3+ support on the BSD side.

OpenZFS 2.3.3 also adds parallel eviction support to ARC, flushing the ARC asynchronously during pool export, improved block cloning transactions accounting, allowing zero compression if deduplication is enabled, tuning improvements, improved write log size accounting for ZIL, and a wide range of other fixes and tweaks.

The lengthy list of OpenZFS 2.3.3 changes can be found via the release announcement on [2]GitHub .

Treaty of Helsinki Signed

HELSINKI, FINLAND -- A cease-fire in the flame war between Linux and
FreeBSD has been reached. A group of two dozen Linux and FreeBSD zealots
met in Helsinki to ratify a treaty bringing a temporary end to the hostile
fighting between both camps. "Today is a good day for peace," one observer
noted. "Now both sides can lay down their keyboards and quit flaming the
opposing side on Usenet and Slashdot."

The cease-fire is a response to the sudden increase in fighting that has
occured over the past two weeks. The Slashdot server became a victim of
the cross-fire this week when thousands of Anonymous Cowards and Geek
Zealots posted inflammatory comments that amounted to, "My OS is better
than your OS!" Many nerds, suffering withdrawl symptoms when the Slashdot
site slowed to a crawl, demanded that the bickering stop.

"I can't take it anymore! It takes two minutes to download the Slashdot
homepage -- assuming the site is actually online. I must have my 'News for
Nerds' now! The fighting must stop," one Anonymous Coward ranted.
