_Description: Abort building OpenZFS on a 32-bit kernel?
|
||
|
|
You are attempting to build OpenZFS against a 32-bit running kernel.
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
Although possible, building in a 32-bit environment is unsupported and
|
||
|
|
likely to cause instability leading to possible data corruption. You
|
||
|
|
are strongly advised to use a 64-bit kernel; if you do decide to
|
||
|
|
proceed with using OpenZFS on this kernel then keep in mind that it is at
|
||
|
|
your own risk.

_Description: Abort building OpenZFS on an unknown kernel?
|
||
|
|
You are attempting to build OpenZFS against a running kernel that could not
|
||
|
|
be identified as 32-bit or 64-bit. If you are not completely sure that
|
||
|
|
the running kernel is a 64-bit one, you should probably stop the build.

_Description: Licenses of OpenZFS and Linux are incompatible
|
||
|
|
OpenZFS is licensed under the Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL),
|
||
|
|
and the Linux kernel is licensed under the GNU General Public License Version 2
|
||
|
|
(GPL-2). While both are free open source licenses they are restrictive
|
||
|
|
licenses. The combination of them causes problems because it prevents using
|
||
|
|
pieces of code exclusively available under one license with pieces of code
|
||
|
|
exclusively available under the other in the same binary.
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
You are going to build OpenZFS using DKMS in such a way that they are not going to
|
||
|
|
be built into one monolithic binary. Please be aware that distributing both of
|
||
|
|
the binaries in the same media (disk images, virtual appliances, etc) may
|
||
|
|
lead to infringing.
