This just adds complexity and confusion. Once-upon-a-time, there was no
`package` and only `enableUnstable`, but now it is just confusing to
have both, as it would be possible to do e.g. `package = pkgs.zfs` and
`enableUnstable = true`, but then `enableUnstable` does nothing.
This adds compatibility with newer kernels, which fixes
nixosTests.zfs.series_2_1, which broke when the default kernel version
was bumped.
This means we no longer need the removeLinuxDRM option at all, but
I've kept it around as a no-op so people can leave it set in case the
same thing happens again in future.
ZFS no longer tries to use GPL-only symbols on aarch64.
Tested by building nixosTests.zfs.stable (modified to use Linux 6.6)
and nixosTests.zfs.unstable.
this lets us *dis*able filesystem explicitly, as is required by e.g. the
zfs-less installer images. currently that specifically is only easily
possible by adding an overlay that stubs out `zfs`, with the obvious
side-effect of also removing tooling that could run without the kernel
module loaded.
Encountered boot errors in pool with `listsnapshots=on` getKeyLocations should ignore snapshots as they will not be well-handled by createImportService later on
When `config.boot.zfs.enableUnstable` is set to true, grub was built with the `zfs` package even though the rest of the system uses the `zfsUnstable` package.
The effect of this can only be seen when `zfs` and `zfsUnstable` actually differ (which is not currently the case), for example when overriding one of them locally.
This simplifies the setup to receive emails from the ZFS Event Daemon
by relying on the sendmail wrapper defined by other modules such as
msmtp or Postfix.
This is more similar to how other modules like smartd deal with email
configuration.
The user is no longer required to define and rebuild their own ZFS
package to add email support.

This re-introduces the old stable ZFS version we had in the past following
the many predicted issues of ZFS 2.2.x series, that is much more stable
than any further ZFS version at the moment.
I am also removing myself from maintenance of any further ZFS versions as I am
planning to quit ZFS maintenance at some point.
In the meantime, for users like me who depend on ZFS for critical operations, here is a ZFS version
that is known to work for LTS kernels.
