Most filesystems that are designated as "modern" include checksumming, snapshots, cow, etc.
However, do some include support for CRC? That would allow not only detecting, but also correcting bitrot.
I assume that's what Raid6 does, albeit less granular than per file, and more aimed at recovering a full file than a few bits?
Can anyone point me to a FS that supports it, or to the reason it's not done?
As for ZFS, I think I'll keep avoiding it until it is mainlined. I don't really want to play that game.
