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.
From systemd 247, timers can be configured to randomize their delay
once and to apply the same random delay for all future executions.
This allows users to have less jitter between auto-upgrade executions
while still avoiding multiple timers firing simultaneously on a
machine or multiple machines all performing their upgrades
simultaneously.
The default option value (false) is backwards compatible.
All supported versions of NixOS (in fact, back to and including 21.05)
use systemd 247 or later.
Encountered boot errors in pool with `listsnapshots=on` getKeyLocations should ignore snapshots as they will not be well-handled by createImportService later on
the bug causes a hard dependency on an underlying device which might not be
valid for all interfaces, also broke the example for networking.sits. this is
due to calling hasAttr first and checking for null afterwards, the bug was
made more apparent in commit 76a3c30
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.

In 759ec111 the ping setuid wrapper was removed in favour of giving
permissions to perform ICMP echo requests to all users.
The problem is that the systemd file that was supposed to change the
`net.ipv4.ping_group_range` sysctl is not always installed, specifically
only if systemd.coredump.enable.
In that case the range is "0 1", which is effectively restricts ping to
only root.
This change explicitely sets the range to "0 2^31-1", as systemd does.
I don't use this tool but saw it in the top level and that's not where it should
live.
This could arguably also be seen as a RAID; it's a bit of an in-between.
SnapRAID has a feature where you can specify "split" parity files. This
is useful when you're using 16tb or bigger ext4-formatted disks for
parity. ext4 doesn't support files bigger than 16tb so this "split
parity file" can be used to specify two parity files on a single parity
disk and SnapRAID will automatically use the subsequent file when the current
cannot grow anymore (hits 16TB). You specify these split parity files by
separating them with commas in the "parity" config option. This
mostly already works except when it comes to the scheduled systemd sync
job where it specifies ReadWritePaths. If you specify a parity with
multiple files you'll get an error when the systemd job runs: Failed to
set up mount namespacing:
/run/systemd/unit-root/mnt/parity1/snapraid1.parity,/mnt/parity1/snapraid2.parity: No such file or directory
Essentially, when the parity file paths are passed into ReadWritePaths,
they're always treated as a single path. This change makes sure to
split the paths if they contain a comma.
The big concern for this change is if it would break users who have
commas in their actual parity file paths. This won't be an issue because SnapRAID
itself blindly splits on commas for parity files, so legitimate commas in a parity
file path wouldn't work in SnapRAID anyway. See here:

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.
