OpenZFS on OS X (O3X) brings OpenZFS features to Apple's OS X.

** zfs.kext depends upon spl.kext, so start with that repository: https://github.com/openzfsonosx/spl.git

It is tested primarily on Mac OS X Yosemite.

See http://openzfsonosx.org/ for more information.

Open Issues:

https://github.com/openzfsonosx/zfs/issues?state=open

Please note that 'llvm-gcc' or 'clang' should be used for compiling the KEXTs. Pure 'gcc' will produce unstable builds.

 # ./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++
or
 # ./configure CC=llvm-gcc CXX=llvm-g++

# git clone https://github.com/openzfsonosx/zfs.git

# ./autogen.sh
# ./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++ --with-spl=/path/to/your/spl
# make

# rsync -a --delete module/zfs/zfs.kext/ /tmp/zfs.kext/
# chown -R root:wheel /tmp/zfs.kext

# kextload -r /tmp/ -v /tmp/zfs.kext/
