.Dt ZPOOL-FEATURES 7
|
||
.Os
|
||
.
|
||
.Sh NAME
|
||
.Nm zpool-features
|
||
.Nd description of ZFS pool features
|
||
.
|
||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
ZFS pool on-disk format versions are specified via "features" which replace
|
||
the old on-disk format numbers (the last supported on-disk format number is 28).
|
||
To enable a feature on a pool use the
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm upgrade ,
|
||
or set the
|
||
.Sy feature Ns @ Ns Ar feature-name
|
||
property to
|
||
.Sy enabled .
|
||
Please also see the
|
||
.Sx Compatibility feature sets
|
||
section for information on how sets of features may be enabled together.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
The pool format does not affect file system version compatibility or the ability
|
||
to send file systems between pools.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
Since most features can be enabled independently of each other, the on-disk
|
||
format of the pool is specified by the set of all features marked as
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
on the pool.
|
||
If the pool was created by another software version
|
||
this set may include unsupported features.
|
||
.
|
||
.Ss Identifying features
|
||
Every feature has a GUID of the form
|
||
.Ar com.example : Ns Ar feature-name .
|
||
The reversed DNS name ensures that the feature's GUID is unique across all ZFS
|
||
implementations.
|
||
When unsupported features are encountered on a pool they will
|
||
be identified by their GUIDs.
|
||
Refer to the documentation for the ZFS
|
||
implementation that created the pool for information about those features.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
Each supported feature also has a short name.
|
||
By convention a feature's short name is the portion of its GUID which follows the
|
||
.Sq \&:
|
||
(i.e.
|
||
.Ar com.example : Ns Ar feature-name
|
||
would have the short name
|
||
.Ar feature-name ) ,
|
||
however a feature's short name may differ across ZFS implementations if
|
||
following the convention would result in name conflicts.
|
||
.
|
||
.Ss Feature states
|
||
Features can be in one of three states:
|
||
.Bl -tag -width "disabled"
|
||
.It Sy active
|
||
This feature's on-disk format changes are in effect on the pool.
|
||
Support for this feature is required to import the pool in read-write mode.
|
||
If this feature is not read-only compatible,
|
||
support is also required to import the pool in read-only mode
|
||
.Pq see Sx Read-only compatibility .
|
||
.It Sy enabled
|
||
An administrator has marked this feature as enabled on the pool, but the
|
||
feature's on-disk format changes have not been made yet.
|
||
The pool can still be imported by software that does not support this feature,
|
||
but changes may be made to the on-disk format at any time
|
||
which will move the feature to the
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
state.
|
||
Some features may support returning to the
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
state after becoming
|
||
.Sy active .
|
||
See feature-specific documentation for details.
|
||
.It Sy disabled
|
||
This feature's on-disk format changes have not been made and will not be made
|
||
unless an administrator moves the feature to the
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
state.
|
||
Features cannot be disabled once they have been enabled.
|
||
.El
|
||
.Pp
|
||
The state of supported features is exposed through pool properties of the form
|
||
.Sy feature Ns @ Ns Ar short-name .
|
||
.
|
||
.Ss Read-only compatibility
|
||
Some features may make on-disk format changes that do not interfere with other
|
||
software's ability to read from the pool.
|
||
These features are referred to as
|
||
.Dq read-only compatible .
|
||
If all unsupported features on a pool are read-only compatible,
|
||
the pool can be imported in read-only mode by setting the
|
||
.Sy readonly
|
||
property during import (see
|
||
.Xr zpool-import 8
|
||
for details on importing pools).
|
||
.
|
||
.Ss Unsupported features
|
||
For each unsupported feature enabled on an imported pool, a pool property
|
||
named
|
||
.Sy unsupported Ns @ Ns Ar feature-name
|
||
will indicate why the import was allowed despite the unsupported feature.
|
||
Possible values for this property are:
|
||
.Bl -tag -width "readonly"
|
||
.It Sy inactive
|
||
The feature is in the
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
state and therefore the pool's on-disk
|
||
format is still compatible with software that does not support this feature.
|
||
.It Sy readonly
|
||
The feature is read-only compatible and the pool has been imported in
|
||
read-only mode.
|
||
.El
|
||
.
|
||
.Ss Feature dependencies
|
||
Some features depend on other features being enabled in order to function.
|
||
Enabling a feature will automatically enable any features it depends on.
|
||
.
|
||
.Ss Compatibility feature sets
|
||
It is sometimes necessary for a pool to maintain compatibility with a
|
||
specific on-disk format, by enabling and disabling particular features.
|
||
The
|
||
.Sy compatibility
|
||
feature facilitates this by allowing feature sets to be read from text files.
|
||
When set to
|
||
.Sy off
|
||
(the default), compatibility feature sets are disabled
|
||
(i.e. all features are enabled); when set to
|
||
.Sy legacy ,
|
||
no features are enabled.
|
||
When set to a comma-separated list of filenames
|
||
(each filename may either be an absolute path, or relative to
|
||
.Pa /etc/zfs/compatibility.d
|
||
or
|
||
.Pa /usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d ) ,
|
||
the lists of requested features are read from those files,
|
||
separated by whitespace and/or commas.
|
||
Only features present in all files are enabled.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
Simple sanity checks are applied to the files:
|
||
they must be between 1B and 16kB in size, and must end with a newline character.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
The requested features are applied when a pool is created using
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm create Fl o Sy compatibility Ns = Ns Ar …
|
||
and controls which features are enabled when using
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm upgrade .
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm status
|
||
will not show a warning about disabled features which are not part
|
||
of the requested feature set.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
The special value
|
||
.Sy legacy
|
||
prevents any features from being enabled, either via
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm upgrade
|
||
or
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm set Sy feature Ns @ Ns Ar feature-name Ns = Ns Sy enabled .
|
||
This setting also prevents pools from being upgraded to newer on-disk versions.
|
||
This is a safety measure to prevent new features from being
|
||
accidentally enabled, breaking compatibility.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
By convention, compatibility files in
|
||
.Pa /usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d
|
||
are provided by the distribution, and include feature sets
|
||
supported by important versions of popular distributions, and feature
|
||
sets commonly supported at the start of each year.
|
||
Compatibility files in
|
||
.Pa /etc/zfs/compatibility.d ,
|
||
if present, will take precedence over files with the same name in
|
||
.Pa /usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d .
|
||
.Pp
|
||
If an unrecognized feature is found in these files, an error message will
|
||
be shown.
|
||
If the unrecognized feature is in a file in
|
||
.Pa /etc/zfs/compatibility.d ,
|
||
this is treated as an error and processing will stop.
|
||
If the unrecognized feature is under
|
||
.Pa /usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d ,
|
||
this is treated as a warning and processing will continue.
|
||
This difference is to allow distributions to include features
|
||
which might not be recognized by the currently-installed binaries.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
Compatibility files may include comments:
|
||
any text from
|
||
.Sq #
|
||
to the end of the line is ignored.
|
||
.Pp

.de checksum-spiel
|
||
When the
|
||
.Sy \\$1
|
||
feature is set to
|
||
.Sy enabled ,
|
||
the administrator can turn on the
|

|
||
checksum on any dataset using
|
||
.Nm zfs Cm set Sy checksum Ns = Ns Sy \\$1 Ar dset
|

|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
once a
|
||
.Sy checksum
|
||
property has been set to
|
||
.Sy \\$1 ,
|
||
and will return to being
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
once all filesystems that have ever had their checksum set to
|
||
.Sy \\$1
|
||
are destroyed.
|
||
..
|
||
.
|
||
.Sh FEATURES
|
||
The following features are supported on this system:
|
||
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
||
.feature org.zfsonlinux allocation_classes yes
|
||
This feature enables support for separate allocation classes.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
when a dedicated allocation class vdev (dedup or special) is created with the
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm create No or Nm zpool Cm add No commands .
|
||
With device removal, it can be returned to the
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
state if all the dedicated allocation class vdevs are removed.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.delphix async_destroy yes
|
||
Destroying a file system requires traversing all of its data in order to
|
||
return its used space to the pool.
|
||
Without
|
||
.Sy async_destroy ,
|
||
the file system is not fully removed until all space has been reclaimed.
|
||
If the destroy operation is interrupted by a reboot or power outage,
|
||
the next attempt to open the pool will need to complete the destroy
|
||
operation synchronously.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
When
|
||
.Sy async_destroy
|
||
is enabled, the file system's data will be reclaimed by a background process,
|
||
allowing the destroy operation to complete
|
||
without traversing the entire file system.
|
||
The background process is able to resume
|
||
interrupted destroys after the pool has been opened, eliminating the need
|
||
to finish interrupted destroys as part of the open operation.
|
||
The amount of space remaining to be reclaimed by the background process
|
||
is available through the
|
||
.Sy freeing
|
||
property.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature is only
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
while
|
||
.Sy freeing
|
||
is non-zero.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.delphix bookmarks yes extensible_dataset
|
||
This feature enables use of the
|
||
.Nm zfs Cm bookmark
|
||
command.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature is
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
while any bookmarks exist in the pool.
|
||
All bookmarks in the pool can be listed by running
|
||
.Nm zfs Cm list Fl t Sy bookmark Fl r Ar poolname .
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.datto bookmark_v2 no bookmark extensible_dataset
|
||
This feature enables the creation and management of larger bookmarks which are
|
||
needed for other features in ZFS.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
when a v2 bookmark is created and will be returned to the
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
state when all v2 bookmarks are destroyed.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.delphix bookmark_written no bookmark extensible_dataset bookmark_v2
|
||
This feature enables additional bookmark accounting fields, enabling the
|
||
.Sy written Ns # Ns Ar bookmark
|
||
property (space written since a bookmark) and estimates of
|
||
send stream sizes for incrementals from bookmarks.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
when a bookmark is created and will be
|
||
returned to the
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
state when all bookmarks with these fields are destroyed.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature org.openzfs device_rebuild yes
|
||
This feature enables the ability for the
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm attach
|
||
and
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm replace
|
||
commands to perform sequential reconstruction
|
||
(instead of healing reconstruction) when resilvering.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
Sequential reconstruction resilvers a device in LBA order without immediately
|
||
verifying the checksums.
|
||
Once complete, a scrub is started, which then verifies the checksums.
|
||
This approach allows full redundancy to be restored to the pool
|
||
in the minimum amount of time.
|
||
This two-phase approach will take longer than a healing resilver
|
||
when the time to verify the checksums is included.
|
||
However, unless there is additional pool damage,
|
||
no checksum errors should be reported by the scrub.
|
||
This feature is incompatible with raidz configurations.
|
||
.
|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
while a sequential resilver is in progress, and returns to
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
when the resilver completes.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.delphix device_removal no
|
||
This feature enables the
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm remove
|
||
command to remove top-level vdevs,
|
||
evacuating them to reduce the total size of the pool.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
when the
|
||
.Nm zpool Cm remove
|
||
command is used
|
||
on a top-level vdev, and will never return to being
|
||
.Sy enabled .
|
||
.
|
||
.feature org.openzfs draid no
|
||
This feature enables use of the
|
||
.Sy draid
|
||
vdev type.
|
||
dRAID is a variant of raidz which provides integrated distributed
|
||
hot spares that allow faster resilvering while retaining the benefits of raidz.
|
||
Data, parity, and spare space are organized in redundancy groups
|
||
and distributed evenly over all of the devices.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
when creating a pool which uses the
|
||
.Sy draid
|
||
vdev type, or when adding a new
|
||
.Sy draid
|
||
vdev to an existing pool.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature org.illumos edonr no extensible_dataset
|
||
This feature enables the use of the Edon-R hash algorithm for checksum,
|
||
including for nopwrite (if compression is also enabled, an overwrite of
|
||
a block whose checksum matches the data being written will be ignored).
|
||
In an abundance of caution, Edon-R requires verification when used with
|
||
dedup:
|
||
.Nm zfs Cm set Sy dedup Ns = Ns Sy edonr , Ns Sy verify
|
||
.Po see Xr zfs-set 8 Pc .
|
||
.Pp
|
||
Edon-R is a very high-performance hash algorithm that was part
|
||
of the NIST SHA-3 competition.
|
||
It provides extremely high hash performance (over 350% faster than SHA-256),
|
||
but was not selected because of its unsuitability
|
||
as a general purpose secure hash algorithm.
|
||
This implementation utilizes the new salted checksumming functionality
|
||
in ZFS, which means that the checksum is pre-seeded with a secret
|
||
256-bit random key (stored on the pool) before being fed the data block
|
||
to be checksummed.
|
||
Thus the produced checksums are unique to a given pool,
|
||
preventing hash collision attacks on systems with dedup.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
.checksum-spiel edonr
|
||
.Pp
|
||
.Fx does not support the Sy edonr No feature.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.delphix embedded_data no
|
||
This feature improves the performance and compression ratio of
|
||
highly-compressible blocks.
|
||
Blocks whose contents can compress to 112 bytes
|
||
or smaller can take advantage of this feature.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
When this feature is enabled, the contents of highly-compressible blocks are
|
||
stored in the block "pointer" itself (a misnomer in this case, as it contains
|
||
the compressed data, rather than a pointer to its location on disk).
|
||
Thus the space of the block (one sector, typically 512B or 4kB) is saved,
|
||
and no additional I/O is needed to read and write the data block.
|
||
.
|
||
\*[instant-never]
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.delphix empty_bpobj yes
|
||
This feature increases the performance of creating and using a large
|
||
number of snapshots of a single filesystem or volume, and also reduces
|
||
the disk space required.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
When there are many snapshots, each snapshot uses many Block Pointer
|
||
Objects (bpobjs) to track blocks associated with that snapshot.
|
||
However, in common use cases, most of these bpobjs are empty.
|
||
This feature allows us to create each bpobj on-demand,
|
||
thus eliminating the empty bpobjs.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature is
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
while there are any filesystems, volumes,
|
||
or snapshots which were created after enabling this feature.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.delphix enabled_txg yes
|
||
Once this feature is enabled, ZFS records the transaction group number
|
||
in which new features are enabled.
|
||
This has no user-visible impact, but other features may depend on this feature.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
as soon as it is enabled and will
|
||
never return to being
|
||
.Sy enabled .
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.datto encryption no bookmark_v2 extensible_dataset
|
||
This feature enables the creation and management of natively encrypted datasets.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature becomes
|
||
.Sy active
|
||
when an encrypted dataset is created and will be returned to the
|
||
.Sy enabled
|
||
state when all datasets that use this feature are destroyed.
|
||
.
|
||
.feature com.delphix extensible_dataset no
|
||
This feature allows more flexible use of internal ZFS data structures,
|
||
and exists for other features to depend on.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature will be
|
||

This feature enables filesystem and snapshot limits.
|
||
These limits can be used to control how many filesystems and/or snapshots
|
||
can be created at the point in the tree on which the limits are set.
|
||
.Pp

.feature com.delphix hole_birth no enabled_txg
|
||
This feature has/had bugs, the result of which is that, if you do a
|
||
.Nm zfs Cm send Fl i
|
||
.Pq or Fl R , No since it uses Fl i
|
||
from an affected dataset, the receiving party will not see any checksum
|
||
or other errors, but the resulting destination snapshot
|
||
will not match the source.
|
||
Its use by
|
||
.Nm zfs Cm send Fl i
|
||
has been disabled by default
|
||
.Pq see Sy send_holes_without_birth_time No in Xr zfs 4 .
|
||
.Pp
|
||
This feature improves performance of incremental sends
|
||
.Pq Nm zfs Cm send Fl i
|
||
and receives for objects with many holes.
|
||
The most common case of hole-filled objects is zvols.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
An incremental send stream from snapshot
|
||
.Sy A No to snapshot Sy B
|
||
contains information about every block that changed between
|
||
.Sy A No and Sy B .
|
||
Blocks which did not change between those snapshots can be
|
||
identified and omitted from the stream using a piece of metadata called
|
||
the "block birth time", but birth times are not recorded for holes
|
||
(blocks filled only with zeroes).
|
||
Since holes created after
|
||
.Sy A No cannot be distinguished from holes created before Sy A ,
|
||
information about every hole in the entire filesystem or zvol
|
||
is included in the send stream.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
For workloads where holes are rare this is not a problem.
|
||
However, when incrementally replicating filesystems or zvols with many holes
|
||
(for example a zvol formatted with another filesystem) a lot of time will
|
||
be spent sending and receiving unnecessary information about holes that
|
||
already exist on the receiving side.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
Once the
|
||
.Sy hole_birth
|
||
feature has been enabled the block birth times
|
||
of all new holes will be recorded.
|
||
Incremental sends between snapshots created after this feature is enabled
|
||
will use this new metadata to avoid sending information about holes that
|
||
already exist on the receiving side.

are destroyed.
|
||
Large dnodes allow more data to be stored in the bonus buffer,
|
||
thus potentially improving performance by avoiding the use of spill blocks.

.
|
||
.feature com.delphix livelist yes
|
||
This feature allows clones to be deleted faster than the traditional method
|

when a large number of random/sparse writes have been made to the clone.
|
||
All blocks allocated and freed after a clone is created are tracked by the
|

information against the project identifier (ID).
|

.Pp
|
||
The project ID is an object-based attribute.
|

|
||
This feature enables the use of the SHA-512/256 truncated hash algorithm
|
||
(FIPS 180-4) for checksum and dedup.
|
||
The native 64-bit arithmetic of SHA-512 provides an approximate 50%
|
||
performance boost over SHA-256 on 64-bit hardware
|
||
and is thus a good minimum-change replacement candidate
|
||
for systems where hash performance is important,
|

.feature org.illumos skein no extensible_dataset
|

This feature enables the use of the Skein hash algorithm for checksum and dedup.
|
||
Skein is a high-performance secure hash algorithm that was a
|
||
finalist in the NIST SHA-3 competition.
|
||
It provides a very high security margin and high performance on 64-bit hardware
|
||
(80% faster than SHA-256).
|
||
This implementation also utilizes the new salted checksumming
|
||
functionality in ZFS, which means that the checksum is pre-seeded with a
|
||
secret 256-bit random key (stored on the pool) before being fed the data
|
||
block to be checksummed.
|
||
Thus the produced checksums are unique to a given pool,
