That's not really accurate phrasing, Sun had no involvement in OpenZFS because it started after Sun no longer existed. Sun maintained OpenSolaris which served as the de facto implementation of ZFS. OpenZFS was started in response to Oracle discontinuing OpenSolaris and only doing further ZFS in private. You are correct about incompatible features. Sun and Oracle use a monotonically increasing integer to note new ZFS versions. OpenZFS instead incremented the version to 5000 and now uses feature flags so it is possible to coordinate individual feature enablement between all the operating systems that support OpenZFS. |
