Has OpenSuSE 13.1 dropped support for zfs-fuse ?
Has OpenSuSE 13.1 dropped support for zfs-fuse?
If it has not, what must I add to /etc/zypp/repos.d to install it? If it has, I would never have installed 13.1 if I had known. How do I obtain an unsupported implementation of zfs-fuse? Thank you in advance for any and all replies. jay at m5 dot chicago dot il dot us |
13.1 has not been released yet; it is close, but has not been released, so it is difficult to say.
In general, some of the stuff in 'personal' (rather than formal, oS supported, repos - these tend to be described as 'unstable' packages, although that probably isn't the best descriptive term) repos tends not to be available until a week or two after the release, so that makes it even more difficult to give the definitive list of what will be available, eventually. Both 12.3 and 13.1 have something ZFS in the repos 'filesystems' and 'home:munix9:zfs'; additionally 12.3 has 'spin:invis', which, judging by the git repo on which it is based might be a bit older. 'spin:invis' may well turn up for 13.1 at some time, as might something else. That said, I don't know what is in these repos; it could be ZFS-on-fuse, native-ZFS or some subset or superset of either or both, but it certainly seems to be something zfs related (and possibly other filesystems?). |
Indeed, I did another search-engine inquiry a couple of days later,
and this time it showed up (but I did have to add the following to /etc/zypp/repos.d, which had not been placed there by the installation procedure): [filesystems] name=filesystems enabled=1 autorefresh=1 baseurl=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/filesystems/openSUSE_13.1/ type=rpm-md keeppackages=0 However, it is not zfs-fuse, but kernel-based, which one normally would think is preferable, but not in this case, because it doesn't work. Behold: landru:/etc/zypp/repos.d # zpool list Failed to load ZFS module stack. Load the module manually by running 'insmod <location>/zfs.ko' as root. Failed to load ZFS module stack. Load the module manually by running 'insmod <location>/zfs.ko' as root. landru:/etc/zypp/repos.d # insmod /lib/modules/3.11.6-4-desktop/extra/zfs/zfs.ko insmod: error inserting '/lib/modules/3.11.6-4-desktop/extra/zfs/zfs.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module Rebooting made no difference. Any further assistance would be much appreciated. As always, thank you in advance for any and all replies. jay at m5 dot chicago dot il dot us |
Here is more information, although I am no closer to a solution.
As indicated in the previous posting, when I downloaded zfs, yast2 installed zfs.ko into /lib/modules/3.11.6-4-desktop/extra/zfs but it turns out that on my system (which I downloaded and installed less than a week ago) `uname -r` produces 3.11.6-3-desktop (I consider this a bug in yast2). Copying zfs.ko into the appropriate directory did not help: landru:/lib/modules # mkdir -p 3.11.6-3-desktop/extra/zfs landru:/lib/modules # cp -i 3.11.6-4-desktop/extra/zfs/zfs.ko

My fear is that Novell has a fantasy that people are going to buy their product because of the btrfs support, and that in consequence they want to discourage use of zfs, because it is vastly superior to btrfs.

Re: 3.11.6-3 vs 3.11.6-4-whatever; you've got the kernel(s) that you've got. If you have 'gone behind yast's back' to install something, then yast won't know and will get it wrong. Quote:

> Why are you using fuse? http://software.opensuse.org/package/zfs > I am not using fuse -- that was simply the original title of the thread. I am using the ZFS kernel module, as I mentioned above. And http://software.opensuse.org/package/zfs is precisely where I got it from. There was also an earlier question (which I am certain I answered, but the answer, myteriously, does not appear on the thread -- perhaps the website had already logged me out by the time I posted it): > > Did you ever do exactly that [insmod zfs.ko]? What happened? > Yes, I did do exactly that, and posted the results, but it apparently, and understandably, was lost in all the verbiage. Here it is again, taken verbatim from my posting of 11-11-13 11:17 AM: landru:/etc/zypp/repos.d # insmod /lib/modules/3.11.6-4-desktop/extra/zfs/zfs.ko insmod: error inserting '/lib/modules/3.11.6-4-desktop/extra/zfs/zfs.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module I am no closer to a solution than I was at the start of this thread; my next attempt will be to download the source rpm and try to build a functioning kernel module from source. Any helpful advice from those who have successfully done this, or something similar to this, will be much appreciated. jay at m5 dot chicago dot il dot us |
I have downloaded the zfs source module, but have
not yet attempted to compile & install from source. Instead, I rebooted into 3.11.6-4-desktop (which, mysteriously, existed in my /boot directory, although, mysteriously, I was running 3.11.6-3-desktop, not 3.11.6-4.desktop), hoping that that would work, and preferring a simple solution to a complex and difficult one. Rebooting into 3.11.6-4-desktop did not solve the problem, although it did change the error messages. Behold: landru:/ # zpool list Failed to load ZFS module stack.

"insmod" command produced 4 lines of dmesg output (timestamped "249") and that the "modprobe" command produced 240 lines of dmesg output (timestamped "262"). The last two lines of dmesg output, timestamped "301", may also have been produced by "modprobe". The following may also be of interest: landru:/ # find /lib/modules -name spl\* landru:/ # If I am not mistaken, zfs depends on spl (Sun Porting Layer, or words to that effect). I may be mistaken. In any event, installing the zfs rpm did not install spl.ko (if such a file is even supposed to exist). Why, then, do I not attempt to build the modules from source? It is because I have no confidence whatsoever in the documentation. This betokens a change in my attitude since my most recent posting to this forum. But, since my most recent posting to this forum, I looked at /usr/src/linux/README.SUSE and the experience has utterly drained me of confidence in the people who put together the SuSE distribution. Here is one of the confidence-draining passages from that document: At runtime, the setting of the" unsupported" kernel command line parameter and /proc/sys/kernel/unsupported determines whether unsupported modules can be loaded or not, and whether or not loading an unsupported module causes a warning in the system log: 0 = only allow supported modules, 1 = warn when loading unsupported modules, 2 = don't warn. (the transposition of the open-double-quote and the space are in the original) It seems plausible, but observe: landru:/usr/src/linux # cat /proc/sys/kernel/unsupported cat: /proc/sys/kernel/unsupported: No such file or directory landru:/usr/src/linux # echo 1 >/proc/sys/kernel/unsupported bash: /proc/sys/kernel/unsupported: No such file or directory landru:/usr/src/linux # Now, am I to rely on the authors of this document when undertaking something as perilous as rebuilding my kernel? Would you? I would never have installed OpenSuSE 13.1 if I had known that the OpenSuSE people have dropped zfs-fuse, and that, over a week later, I would still have found no way to install native zfs either (putting to the lie the "1-Click Install" promise of http://software.opensuse.org/package/zfs). As always, thank you in advance for any and all replies. jay at m5 dot chicago dot il dot us |
I have been using both zfs on linux and zfs-fuse with opensuse. The latter is easy to install and use, the former is more tricky but worthwhile in terms of much better perofrmance.
Let me know if you still need help and I can show you what I did. |
