Brian Behlendorf 2b7ab9d4d9 Linux 2.6.26 compat, lookup_bdev()
It's doubtful many people were impacted by this but commit 6c28567
accidentally broke ZFS builds for 2.6.26 and earlier kernels.  This
commit depends on the lookup_bdev() function which exists in 2.6.26
but wasn't exported until 2.6.27.

The availability of the function isn't critical so a wrapper is
introduced which returns ERR_PTR(-ENOTSUP) when the function isn't
defined.  This will have the effect of causing zvol_is_zvol() to
always fail for 2.6.26 kernels.  This in turn means vdevs will
always get opened concurrently which is good for normal usage.
This will only become an issue if your using a zvol as a vdev in
another pool.  In which case you really should be using a newer
kernel anyway.

README.markdown

Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!

$ ./configure
$ make pkg

To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:

$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...

Full documentation for building, configuring, and using ZFS can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
