What's notable in this release? Found it difficult to grasp from the detailed change log.
- pstuart 7y agoThe versioning suggests that it's a patch release, e.g., bug fixes.
- opencl 7y agoProbably the most notable thing is compatibility with the upcoming 5.2 kernel, otherwise just minor bugfixes. 0.8.0 came out just a few weeks ago and was a pretty huge release. It added encryption, TRIM support for SSDs, ability to remove disks from zpools, performance improvements, and more. https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/releases/tag/zfs-0.8.0 https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/releases/tag/zfs-0.8.0
- rodgerd 7y agoFor me it's notable that the first drop doesn't contain any "oh shit" bugs, which would tend to suggest the more conservative amongst us should be thinking about upgrading the on-disk format from 0.7.x to 0.8.x.
