A common usage pattern for zgenhostid, including in the ZFS dracut module, is running it as: zgenhostid $(hostid) However, zgenhostid only accepted hostid arguments greater than 0, which meant that, when the output of hostid(1) was "00000000", zgenhostid would error out, even though 0 is a possible return value for the gethostid(3) function used by hostid(1): - On current musl libc, gethostid(3) is a stub that always returns 0. - On glibc, gethostid(3) will return 0 if /etc/hostid exists but is smaller than 4 bytes. In these cases, it makes more sense for zgenhostid to treat a value of 0 as other parts of the zfs codebase do, meaning that a hostid value couldn't be determined; therefore, it should attempt to generate a random value to write into /etc/hostid. The manpage and usage output have been updated to reflect this. Whitespace has also been fixed in the usage output.
