ZFS and 64-bit linux are perfectly capable of dealing with 64-bit timestamps, but ZFS deliberately prevents setting them. Adjust the SPL such that TIMESPEC_OVERFLOW will not always assume 32-bit values and instead use the correct values for your kernel build. This effectively allows 64-bit timestamps on 64-bit systems. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Closes ZFS issue #487
The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and don’t want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.
To build packages for your distribution:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
