From my recollection, the basic story is Sun open sourced Solaris in the early 2000's (OpenSolaris). Today's OpenZFS codebase is an incarnation of the code released in OpenSolaris. It has since been ported to Linux and continues on as a separate thing from ZFS. Oracle has since "un-open sourced" Solaris, and is why ZFS and OpenZFS are different things today, although they both share a heritage.
