I understand making this change in ZFS is a on-disk format-breaking (concept-breaking?) change, so not likely to happen. Hopefully newer filesystems (bcachefs)

I understand making this change in ZFS is a on-disk format-breaking (concept-breaking?) change, so not likely to happen. Hopefully newer filesystems (bcachefs) will have considered this in the design phase.
- cryptonector 4y agoThe on-disk format can evolve, and new features can be added. It being a breaking change is not a big deal as long as you don't mean to rollback to an earlier version of ZFS. The problem with this change is not that it's breaking, but that it essentially forks too many code paths in ZFS to be worth doing.
