According to openzfs/spl@acf0ade openzfs/zfs#2794 the hostid handling is not needed anymore. If /etc/hostid does not exist, then spl treats it as 0 and continues operation. Closes #60 Closes #31

Init scripts have been refactored to improve readability. The most important aspect of this refactor is that automated testing has been implemented using Qemu. Eventually we will get to the point of automatically building new archzfs packages as soon as a new kernel is released to the arch testing repo, after that the tests will be used to determine if the archzfs packages can be pushed out to aur and archzfs.com. Closes #22 Closes #31 Closes #38 Closes #48

archzfs no longer does anything with hostid. |

Hi,
(at least) since the 3.18.4-1 kernel update (zfs-git 0.6.3_r170_gd958324f_3.18.4_1-1) the spl.spl_hostid kernel option does not work to set the hostid. A constant hostid is valuable for root partitions, as they cannot be properly exported during shutdown (and booting will fail if the hostid has changed since last import if the import is not forced via the zfs_force=1 kernel option).
I was under the impression that it did work on the previous kernel, as I had no problems on all boots since my Arch installation two weeks ago, but maybe the hostid is less volatile than I thought. Also the Installing Arch Linux on ZFS wiki page describes setting the kernel parameter as a valid alternative to creating a /etc/hostid file.
Best regards.
