17 .TH ZPOOL-FEATURES 5 "Jun 8, 2018"
18 .SH NAME
19 zpool\-features \- ZFS pool feature descriptions
20 .SH DESCRIPTION
21 .sp
22 .LP
23 ZFS pool on\-disk format versions are specified via "features" which replace
24 the old on\-disk format numbers (the last supported on\-disk format number is
25 28). To enable a feature on a pool use the \fBupgrade\fR subcommand of the
26 zpool(8) command, or set the \fBfeature@\fR\fIfeature_name\fR property
27 to \fBenabled\fR.
28 .sp
29 .LP
30 The pool format does not affect file system version compatibility or the ability
31 to send file systems between pools.
32 .sp
33 .LP
34 Since most features can be enabled independently of each other the on\-disk
35 format of the pool is specified by the set of all features marked as
36 \fBactive\fR on the pool. If the pool was created by another software version
37 this set may include unsupported features.
38 .SS "Identifying features"
39 .sp
40 .LP
41 Every feature has a GUID of the form \fIcom.example:feature_name\fR. The
42 reverse DNS name ensures that the feature's GUID is unique across all ZFS
43 implementations. When unsupported features are encountered on a pool they will
44 be identified by their GUIDs. Refer to the documentation for the ZFS
45 implementation that created the pool for information about those features.
46 .sp
47 .LP
48 Each supported feature also has a short name. By convention a feature's short
49 name is the portion of its GUID which follows the ':' (e.g.
50 \fIcom.example:feature_name\fR would have the short name \fIfeature_name\fR),
51 however a feature's short name may differ across ZFS implementations if
52 following the convention would result in name conflicts.
53 .SS "Feature states"
54 .sp
55 .LP
56 Features can be in one of three states:
57 .sp
58 .ne 2
59 .na
60 \fB\fBactive\fR\fR
61 .ad
62 .RS 12n
63 This feature's on\-disk format changes are in effect on the pool. Support for
64 this feature is required to import the pool in read\-write mode. If this
65 feature is not read-only compatible, support is also required to import the pool
66 in read\-only mode (see "Read\-only compatibility").
67 .RE
68
69 .sp
70 .ne 2
71 .na
72 \fB\fBenabled\fR\fR
73 .ad
74 .RS 12n
75 An administrator has marked this feature as enabled on the pool, but the
76 feature's on\-disk format changes have not been made yet. The pool can still be
77 imported by software that does not support this feature, but changes may be made
78 to the on\-disk format at any time which will move the feature to the
79 \fBactive\fR state. Some features may support returning to the \fBenabled\fR
80 state after becoming \fBactive\fR. See feature\-specific documentation for
81 details.
82 .RE

84 .sp
85 .ne 2
86 .na
87 \fBdisabled\fR
88 .ad
89 .RS 12n
90 This feature's on\-disk format changes have not been made and will not be made
91 unless an administrator moves the feature to the \fBenabled\fR state. Features
92 cannot be disabled once they have been enabled.
93 .RE
94
95 .sp
96 .LP
97 The state of supported features is exposed through pool properties of the form
98 \fIfeature@short_name\fR.
99 .SS "Read\-only compatibility"
100 .sp
101 .LP
102 Some features may make on\-disk format changes that do not interfere with other
103 software's ability to read from the pool. These features are referred to as
104 "read\-only compatible". If all unsupported features on a pool are read\-only
105 compatible, the pool can be imported in read\-only mode by setting the
106 \fBreadonly\fR property during import (see zpool(8) for details on
107 importing pools).
108 .SS "Unsupported features"
109 .sp
110 .LP
111 For each unsupported feature enabled on an imported pool a pool property
112 named \fIunsupported@feature_name\fR will indicate why the import was allowed
113 despite the unsupported feature. Possible values for this property are:
114
115 .sp
116 .ne 2
117 .na
118 \fB\fBinactive\fR\fR
119 .ad
120 .RS 12n
121 The feature is in the \fBenabled\fR state and therefore the pool's on\-disk
122 format is still compatible with software that does not support this feature.
123 .RE

125 .sp
126 .ne 2
127 .na
128 \fB\fBreadonly\fR\fR

132 read\-only mode.
133 .RE
134
135 .SS "Feature dependencies"
136 .sp
137 .LP
138 Some features depend on other features being enabled in order to function
139 properly. Enabling a feature will automatically enable any features it
140 depends on.
141 .SH FEATURES

153 GUID com.delphix:async_destroy
154 READ\-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes
155 DEPENDENCIES none
156 .TE
157
158 Destroying a file system requires traversing all of its data in order to
159 return its used space to the pool. Without \fBasync_destroy\fR the file system
160 is not fully removed until all space has been reclaimed. If the destroy
161 operation is interrupted by a reboot or power outage the next attempt to open
162 the pool will need to complete the destroy operation synchronously.
163
164 When \fBasync_destroy\fR is enabled the file system's data will be reclaimed
165 by a background process, allowing the destroy operation to complete without
166 traversing the entire file system. The background process is able to resume
167 interrupted destroys after the pool has been opened, eliminating the need
168 to finish interrupted destroys as part of the open operation. The amount
169 of space remaining to be reclaimed by the background process is available
170 through the \fBfreeing\fR property.
171
172 This feature is only \fBactive\fR while \fBfreeing\fR is non\-zero.

187
188 This feature increases the performance of creating and using a large
189 number of snapshots of a single filesystem or volume, and also reduces
190 the disk space required.
191
192 When there are many snapshots, each snapshot uses many Block Pointer
193 Objects (bpobj's) to track blocks associated with that snapshot.
194 However, in common use cases, most of these bpobj's are empty. This
195 feature allows us to create each bpobj on-demand, thus eliminating the
196 empty bpobjs.
197
198 This feature is \fBactive\fR while there are any filesystems, volumes,
199 or snapshots which were created after enabling this feature.

216 to control how many filesystems and/or snapshots can be created at the point in
217 the tree on which the limits are set.

232 READ\-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
233 DEPENDENCIES none
234 .TE
235
236 \fBlz4\fR is a high-performance real-time compression algorithm that
237 features significantly faster compression and decompression as well as a
238 higher compression ratio than the older \fBlzjb\fR compression.
239 Typically, \fBlz4\fR compression is approximately 50% faster on
240 compressible data and 200% faster on incompressible data than
241 \fBlzjb\fR. It is also approximately 80% faster on decompression, while
242 giving approximately 10% better compression ratio.
243
244 When the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature is set to \fBenabled\fR, the
245 administrator can turn on \fBlz4\fR compression on any dataset on the
246 pool using the zfs(8) command. Please note that doing so will
247 immediately activate the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature on the underlying
248 pool using the zfs(8) command. Also, all newly written metadata
249 will be compressed with \fBlz4\fR algorithm. Since this feature is not
250 read-only compatible, this operation will render the pool unimportable
251 on systems without support for the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature.
252
253 Booting off of \fBlz4\fR-compressed root pools is supported.
254
255 This feature becomes \fBactive\fR as soon as it is enabled and will
256 never return to being \fBenabled\fB.

272 This features allows ZFS to maintain more information about how free space
273 is organized within the pool. If this feature is \fBenabled\fR, ZFS will
274 set this feature to \fBactive\fR when a new space map object is created or
275 an existing space map is upgraded to the new format. Once the feature is
276 \fBactive\fR, it will remain in that state until the pool is destroyed.

292
293 This feature allows a dump device to be configured with a pool comprised
294 of multiple vdevs. Those vdevs may be arranged in any mirrored or raidz
295 configuration.
296
297 When the \fBmulti_vdev_crash_dump\fR feature is set to \fBenabled\fR,
298 the administrator can use the \fBdumpadm\fR(1M) command to configure a
299 dump device on a pool comprised of multiple vdevs.
300
301 Under Linux this feature is registered for compatibility but not used.
302 New pools created under Linux will have the feature \fBenabled\fR but
303 will never transition to \fB\fBactive\fR. This functionality is not
304 required in order to support crash dumps under Linux. Existing pools
305 where this feature is \fB\fBactive\fR can be imported.

385
386 This feature has/had bugs, the result of which is that, if you do a
387 \fBzfs send -i\fR (or \fB-R\fR, since it uses \fB-i\fR) from an affected
388 dataset, the receiver will not see any checksum or other errors, but the
389 resulting destination snapshot will not match the source. Its use by
390 \fBzfs send -i\fR has been disabled by default. See the
391 \fBsend_holes_without_birth_time\fR module parameter in
392 zfs-module-parameters(5).
393
394 This feature improves performance of incremental sends (\fBzfs send -i\fR)
395 and receives for objects with many holes. The most common case of
396 hole-filled objects is zvols.
397
398 An incremental send stream from snapshot \fBA\fR to snapshot \fBB\fR
399 contains information about every block that changed between \fBA\fR and
400 \fBB\fR. Blocks which did not change between those snapshots can be
401 identified and omitted from the stream using a piece of metadata called
402 the 'block birth time', but birth times are not recorded for holes (blocks
403 filled only with zeroes). Since holes created after \fBA\fR cannot be
404 distinguished from holes created before \fBA\fR, information about every
405 hole in the entire filesystem or zvol is included in the send stream.
406
407 For workloads where holes are rare this is not a problem. However, when
408 incrementally replicating filesystems or zvols with many holes (for
409 example a zvol formatted with another filesystem) a lot of time will
410 be spent sending and receiving unnecessary information about holes that
411 already exist on the receiving side.
412
413 Once the \fBhole_birth\fR feature has been enabled the block birth times
414 of all new holes will be recorded. Incremental sends between snapshots
415 created after this feature is enabled will use this new metadata to avoid
416 sending information about holes that already exist on the receiving side.

418 This feature becomes \fBactive\fR as soon as it is enabled and will
419 never return to being \fBenabled\fB.

436 This feature improves the performance and compression ratio of
437 highly-compressible blocks. Blocks whose contents can compress to 112 bytes
438 or smaller can take advantage of this feature.
439
440 When this feature is enabled, the contents of highly-compressible blocks are
441 stored in the block "pointer" itself (a misnomer in this case, as it contains
442 the compressed data, rather than a pointer to its location on disk). Thus
443 the space of the block (one sector, typically 512 bytes or 4KB) is saved,
444 and no additional i/o is needed to read and write the data block.

598 for systems where hash performance is important, but these systems
599 cannot for whatever reason utilize the faster \fBskein\fR and

602 When the \fBsha512\fR feature is set to \fBenabled\fR, the administrator
603 can turn on the \fBsha512\fR checksum on any dataset using
604 \fBzfs set checksum=sha512\fR. See zfs(8). This feature becomes
605 \fBactive\fR once a \fBchecksum\fR property has been set to \fBsha512\fR,
606 and will return to being \fBenabled\fR once all filesystems that have
607 ever had their checksum set to \fBsha512\fR are destroyed.
608
609 The \fBsha512\fR feature is not supported by GRUB and must not be used on
610 the pool if GRUB needs to access the pool (e.g. for /boot).

627 This feature enables the use of the Skein hash algorithm for checksum
628 and dedup. Skein is a high-performance secure hash algorithm that was a
629 finalist in the NIST SHA-3 competition. It provides a very high security
630 margin and high performance on 64-bit hardware (80% faster than
631 SHA-256). This implementation also utilizes the new salted checksumming
632 functionality in ZFS, which means that the checksum is pre-seeded with a
633 secret 256-bit random key (stored on the pool) before being fed the data
634 block to be checksummed. Thus the produced checksums are unique to a
635 given pool, preventing hash collision attacks on systems with dedup.
636
637 When the \fBskein\fR feature is set to \fBenabled\fR, the administrator
638 can turn on the \fBskein\fR checksum on any dataset using

662 This feature enables the use of the Edon-R hash algorithm for checksum,
663 including for nopwrite (if compression is also enabled, an overwrite of
664 a block whose checksum matches the data being written will be ignored).
665 In an abundance of caution, Edon-R requires verification when used with
666 dedup: \fBzfs set dedup=edonr,verify\fR. See \fBzfs\fR(8).
667
668 Edon-R is a very high-performance hash algorithm that was part
669 of the NIST SHA-3 competition. It provides extremely high hash
670 performance (over 350% faster than SHA-256), but was not selected
671 because of its unsuitability as a general purpose secure hash algorithm.
672 This implementation utilizes the new salted checksumming functionality
673 in ZFS, which means that the checksum is pre-seeded with a secret
674 256-bit random key (stored on the pool) before being fed the data block
675 to be checksummed. Thus the produced checksums are unique to a given
676 pool.
