This patch adds the bookmark v2 feature to the on-disk format. This feature will be needed for the upcoming redacted sends and for an upcoming fix that for raw receives. The feature is not currently used by any code and thus this change is a no-op, aside from the fact that the user can now enable the feature.

.TH ZPOOL-FEATURES 5 "Jun 8, 2018"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
zpool\-features \- ZFS pool feature descriptions
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
ZFS pool on\-disk format versions are specified via "features" which replace
|
|
the old on\-disk format numbers (the last supported on\-disk format number is
|
|
28). To enable a feature on a pool use the \fBupgrade\fR subcommand of the
|
|
\fBzpool\fR(8) command, or set the \fBfeature@\fR\fIfeature_name\fR property
|
|
to \fBenabled\fR.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
The pool format does not affect file system version compatibility or the ability
|
|
to send file systems between pools.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
Since most features can be enabled independently of each other the on\-disk
|
|
format of the pool is specified by the set of all features marked as
|
|
\fBactive\fR on the pool. If the pool was created by another software version
|
|
this set may include unsupported features.
|
|
.SS "Identifying features"
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
Every feature has a guid of the form \fIcom.example:feature_name\fR. The reverse
|
|
DNS name ensures that the feature's guid is unique across all ZFS
|
|
implementations. When unsupported features are encountered on a pool they will
|
|
be identified by their guids. Refer to the documentation for the ZFS
|
|
implementation that created the pool for information about those features.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
Each supported feature also has a short name. By convention a feature's short
|
|
name is the portion of its guid which follows the ':' (e.g.
|
|
\fIcom.example:feature_name\fR would have the short name \fIfeature_name\fR),
|
|
however a feature's short name may differ across ZFS implementations if
|
|
following the convention would result in name conflicts.
|
|
.SS "Feature states"
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
Features can be in one of three states:
|
|
.sp

|
This feature's on\-disk format changes are in effect on the pool. Support for
|
|
this feature is required to import the pool in read\-write mode. If this
|
|
feature is not read-only compatible, support is also required to import the pool
|
|
in read\-only mode (see "Read\-only compatibility").

An administrator has marked this feature as enabled on the pool, but the
|
|
feature's on\-disk format changes have not been made yet. The pool can still be
|
|
imported by software that does not support this feature, but changes may be made
|
|
to the on\-disk format at any time which will move the feature to the
|
|
\fBactive\fR state. Some features may support returning to the \fBenabled\fR
|
|
state after becoming \fBactive\fR. See feature\-specific documentation for
|
|
details.

\fIfeature@short_name\fR.
|
|
.SS "Read\-only compatibility"
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
Some features may make on\-disk format changes that do not interfere with other
|
|
software's ability to read from the pool. These features are referred to as
|
|
"read\-only compatible". If all unsupported features on a pool are read\-only
|
|
compatible, the pool can be imported in read\-only mode by setting the
|
|
\fBreadonly\fR property during import (see \fBzpool\fR(8) for details on
|
|
importing pools).
|
|
.SS "Unsupported features"
|
|
.sp
|
|
.LP
|
|
For each unsupported feature enabled on an imported pool a pool property
|
|
named \fIunsupported@feature_guid\fR will indicate why the import was allowed
|
|
despite the unsupported feature. Possible values for this property are:

\fB\fBinactive\fR\fR

The feature is in the \fBenabled\fR state and therefore the pool's on\-disk

Some features depend on other features being enabled in order to function

Destroying a file system requires traversing all of its data in order to
|
|
return its used space to the pool. Without \fBasync_destroy\fR the file system
|
|
is not fully removed until all space has been reclaimed. If the destroy
|
|
operation is interrupted by a reboot or power outage the next attempt to open
|
|
the pool will need to complete the destroy operation synchronously.
|
|
|
|
When \fBasync_destroy\fR is enabled the file system's data will be reclaimed
|
|
by a background process, allowing the destroy operation to complete without
|
|
traversing the entire file system. The background process is able to resume
|
|
interrupted destroys after the pool has been opened, eliminating the need
|
|
to finish interrupted destroys as part of the open operation. The amount
|
|
of space remaining to be reclaimed by the background process is available
|
|
through the \fBfreeing\fR property.
|

This feature is only \fBactive\fR while \fBfreeing\fR is non\-zero.

This feature increases the performance of creating and using a large
|
|
number of snapshots of a single filesystem or volume, and also reduces
|
|
the disk space required.
|
|
|
|
When there are many snapshots, each snapshot uses many Block Pointer
|
|
Objects (bpobj's) to track blocks associated with that snapshot.
|
|
However, in common use cases, most of these bpobj's are empty. This
|
|
feature allows us to create each bpobj on-demand, thus eliminating the
|
|
empty bpobjs.

This feature is \fBactive\fR while there are any filesystems, volumes,

\fBlz4\fR is a high-performance real-time compression algorithm that
|
|
features significantly faster compression and decompression as well as a
|
|
higher compression ratio than the older \fBlzjb\fR compression.
|
|
Typically, \fBlz4\fR compression is approximately 50% faster on
|
|
compressible data and 200% faster on incompressible data than
|
|
\fBlzjb\fR. It is also approximately 80% faster on decompression, while
|
|
giving approximately 10% better compression ratio.
|
|
|
|
When the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature is set to \fBenabled\fR, the
|
|
administrator can turn on \fBlz4\fR compression on any dataset on the
|
|
pool using the \fBzfs\fR(8) command. Please note that doing so will
|
|
immediately activate the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature on the underlying
|
|
pool using the \fBzfs\fR(1M) command. Also, all newly written metadata
|
|
will be compressed with \fBlz4\fR algorithm. Since this feature is not
|
|
read-only compatible, this operation will render the pool unimportable
|
|
on systems without support for the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature.
|
|
|
|
Booting off of \fBlz4\fR-compressed root pools is supported.
|
|
|
|
This feature becomes \fBactive\fR as soon as it is enabled and will
|
|
never return to being \fBenabled\fB.

This features allows ZFS to maintain more information about how free space

an existing space map is upgraded to the new format. Once the feature is

This feature allows a dump device to be configured with a pool comprised

configuration.
|
|
|
|
When the \fBmulti_vdev_crash_dump\fR feature is set to \fBenabled\fR,

the administrator can use the \fBdumpadm\fR(1M) command to configure a

dump device on a pool comprised of multiple vdevs.

Under Linux this feature is registered for compatibility but not used.

This feature improves performance of incremental sends ("zfs send -i")
|
|
and receives for objects with many holes. The most common case of
|
|
hole-filled objects is zvols.
|
|
|
|
An incremental send stream from snapshot \fBA\fR to snapshot \fBB\fR
|
|
contains information about every block that changed between \fBA\fR and
|
|
\fBB\fR. Blocks which did not change between those snapshots can be
|
|
identified and omitted from the stream using a piece of metadata called
|
|
the 'block birth time', but birth times are not recorded for holes (blocks
|
|
filled only with zeroes). Since holes created after \fBA\fR cannot be
|
|
distinguished from holes created before \fBA\fR, information about every
|
|
hole in the entire filesystem or zvol is included in the send stream.
|
|
|
|
For workloads where holes are rare this is not a problem. However, when
|
|
incrementally replicating filesystems or zvols with many holes (for
|
|
example a zvol formatted with another filesystem) a lot of time will
|
|
be spent sending and receiving unnecessary information about holes that
|
|
already exist on the receiving side.
|
|
|
|
Once the \fBhole_birth\fR feature has been enabled the block birth times
|
|
of all new holes will be recorded. Incremental sends between snapshots
|
|
created after this feature is enabled will use this new metadata to avoid
|
|
sending information about holes that already exist on the receiving side.

This feature enables the use of the SHA-512/256 truncated hash algorithm

This feature enables the use of the Skein hash algorithm for checksum

|
finalist in the NIST SHA-3 competition. It provides a very high security
|
|
margin and high performance on 64-bit hardware (80% faster than
|
|
SHA-256). This implementation also utilizes the new salted checksumming
|
|
functionality in ZFS, which means that the checksum is pre-seeded with a
|
|
secret 256-bit random key (stored on the pool) before being fed the data

block to be checksummed. Thus the produced checksums are unique to a

This feature enables the use of the Edon-R hash algorithm for checksum,

Edon-R is a very high-performance hash algorithm that was part
