Detect early on in configure if the Modules.symvers file is missing. Without this file there will be build failures later and it's best to catch this early and provide a useful error. In this case the most likely problem is the kernel-devel packages are not installed. It may also be possible that they are using an unbuilt custom kernel in which case they must build the kernel first. |

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
