The primary benefit is maintaining a completely shared
code base with the community allowing FreeBSD to receive
new features sooner and with less effort.
I would advise against doing 'zpool upgrade'
or creating indispensable pools using new
features until this change has had a month+
to soak.
Work on merging FreeBSD support in to what was
at the time "ZFS on Linux" began in August 2018.
I first publicly proposed transitioning FreeBSD
to (new) OpenZFS on December 18th, 2018. FreeBSD
support in OpenZFS was finally completed in December
2019. A CFT for downstreaming OpenZFS support in
to FreeBSD was first issued on July 8th. All issues
that were reported have been addressed or, for
a couple of less critical matters there are
pull requests in progress with OpenZFS. iXsystems
has tested and dogfooded extensively internally.
The TrueNAS 12 release is based on OpenZFS with
some additional features that have not yet made
it upstream.
Improvements include:
project quotas, encrypted datasets,
allocation classes, vectorized raidz,
vectorized checksums, various command line
improvements, zstd compression.
Thanks to those who have helped along the way:
Ryan Moeller, Allan Jude, Zack Welch, and many
others.

This simplifies make logic/output
While here, remove bogus CFLAGS which look for headers in cddl/lib/libumem.
There aren't any source files there (just Makefiles)

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

uses it since it wasn't a simple mechanical change, and will be
addressed in a future commit.
are linked with libraries they don't use:
- zinject doesn't use libavl
- ztest doesn't use libz
- zdb uses neither libavl nor libz
- zfs uses neither libbsdxml nor libm, nor libsbuf
- zpool uses neither libbsdxml nor libm, nor libsbuf
In addition, libzfs needs libm because it uses pow(), however it isn't
linked with -lm. This went unnoticed because all its users had -lm before.

- Break the dependency on ../Makefile.inc for .PATH, and include
../Makefile.inc implicitly. This is required to ...
- Set WARNS?=6 in top-level Makefile.inc
- Remove now redundant WARNS settings, add WARNS?=0 where appropriate
- Remove redundant SHLIB_MAJOR overrides
- Use NO_MAN, not MK_MAN=no
- Remove redundant inclusion of bsd.own.mk
- Order Makefiles more according to style.Makefile(9)
- Reduce diff of cddl Makefiles against each other

This bring huge amount of changes, I'll enumerate only user-visible changes:
- Delegated Administration
Allows regular users to perform ZFS operations, like file system
creation, snapshot creation, etc.
- L2ARC
Level 2 cache for ZFS - allows to use additional disks for cache.
Huge performance improvements mostly for random read of mostly
static content.
- slog
Allow to use additional disks for ZFS Intent Log to speed up
operations like fsync(2).
- vfs.zfs.super_owner
Allows regular users to perform privileged operations on files stored
on ZFS file systems owned by him. Very careful with this one.
- chflags(2)
Not all the flags are supported. This still needs work.
- ZFSBoot
Support to boot off of ZFS pool. Not finished, AFAIK.

- Snapshot properties
- New failure modes
Before if write requested failed, system paniced. Now one
can select from one of three failure modes:
- panic - panic on write error
- wait - wait for disk to reappear
- continue - serve read requests if possible, block write requests
- Refquota, refreservation properties
Just quota and reservation properties, but don't count space consumed
by children file systems, clones and snapshots.
- Sparse volumes
ZVOLs that don't reserve space in the pool.
- External attributes
Compatible with extattr(2).
- NFSv4-ACLs
Not sure about the status, might not be complete yet.
