"Livermore Lab Bellies Up to Native ZFS Linux Port", 06.8.2010

"As a part of helping to further augment the Lustre file system with

ZFS support, the Livermore team is helping to perform a native Linux

ZFS port. Linux currently has a ZFS port via FUSE due to the inherent

licensing issues with Sun/Oracle and ZFS. There are currently too

many issues between the CDDL and GPL to make ZFS a part of the Linux

kernel."

FAQs

1.1 What about the licensing issue?

.....

"One way to resolve this issue is to implement ZFS in user space with

FUSE where it is not considered a derived work of the kernel. This

approach resolves the licensing issues but it has some technical

drawbacks. There is another option though. The CDDL does not restrict

modification and release of the ZFS source code which is publicly

available as part of OpenSolaris. The ZFS code can be modified

to build as a CDDL licensed kernel module which is not distributed

as part of the Linux kernel. This makes a Native ZFS on Linux

implementation possible if you are willing to download and build it

yourself."
