Prakash Surya cd2817f8a6 Move Arch Linux's VENDOR check above Ubuntu's
If the lsb-release package is installed on an Arch Linux distribution,
the configure step will incorrectly detect the running distribution as
Ubuntu. This is a result of both distributions providing an
/etc/lsb-release file, and the Ubuntu VENDOR check being performed
first.

Since the Arch Linux test check's for a file more specific to the Arch
Linux distribution, moving Arch Linux's VENDOR check above Unbuntu's
check provides a quick and easy solution.

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 dont 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
