zfs: remove recommendations to use zfs_unstable, update deprecated --replace
#352386
Conversation
--replace
and yet again before someone merges this, let's wait for this to be resolved in the next tag openzfs/zfs#16631 |
I think it’s fine to wait (I don’t use zfs_unstable, so doesn’t matter to me anyway), but I want to point out that if one is using zfs_unstable, that always comes with risk of such bugs existing but being unknown to either us or upstream. I’ll mark this draft for now while we discuss (though otherwise this PR is “ready” and review on other aspects is welcome). |
That's the old wiki, please update the new one at https://wiki.nixos.org. |
@SuperSandro2000 Thanks, Mic92 also pointed that out via separate means. I always get confused which is which—hopefully this will finally get it in my head. I updated there as well, and made some other update in addition to that one as well. |
- In some cases, move into a conditional as the substitution is only needed on some version - One use of `--replace-warn` since it is looking in a set of files where the exact files that might contain it may change over time, but we want to cover all of them
`pkgs.zfs_unstable` is pre-release software and may very well have critical bugs that make it unsuitable for general use. As such, we should not recommend it as a general solution to the problem of "my Kernel is too new for stable ZFS".

zfs_unstable update already happened in #352111, so this PR just has the doc and cleanup changes and is now un-draft. |
