Native ZFS Is Coming To Linux Next Month

[sl4shd0t]

An anonymous reader writes "Phoronix is reporting that an Indian technology company has been porting the ZFS filesystem to Linux and will be releasing it next month as a native kernel module without a dependence on FUSE. 'In terms of how native ZFS for Linux is being handled by this Indian company, they are releasing their ported ZFS code under the Common Development & Distribution License and will not be attempting to go for mainline integration. Instead, this company will just be releasing their CDDL source-code as a build-able kernel module for users and ensuring it does not use any GPL-only symbols where there would be license conflicts. KQ Infotech also seems confident that Oracle will not attempt to take any legal action against them for this work.'"http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Flinux.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F10%2F08%2F27%2F2259253%2FNative-ZFS-Is-Coming-To-Linux-Next-Month) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Native+ZFS+Is+Coming+To+Linux+Next+Mon th%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FbFdye7)
