ZFS Is the FS for Containers in Ubuntu 16.04

"OpenZFS" actually means ZoL, the only way to legally ship meant dkms until now, unless there has been CDDL/GPL reinterpretation, a different codebase or agreement with Redwood Shores. The three concerns are stability (battle tested in production at scale, not just some home torrent servers), performance (which wasnt yet up to other production fses) and lawsuits from the Emerald Kingdom.

If it works, great, but there's been ppas for ZoL and the docker zfs backed for a while (we've tested it but decided to go with whats faster and more supportable).

I guess this also means ZoL may be able to drop dkms after they consult their own lawyers, because I'm not entirely convinced Canoncial has this right.

Edit: confirmed this is actually CDDL ZoL code linked as modules, so perhaps Canonical lawyers reinterpreted zfs and spl binary modules shipped to users are still not part of the kernel to be copacetic. http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/zfsutils-linux

This is amazing news. I can't believe that it did not get more coverage! Will I be able to use Ubuntu with ZFS as the main file system too?
