    For all Proxmox users it looks like the new ZFS kernel module with the patch is included in the opt-in kernel 6.5.11-6-pve for now.

    The kernel 6.5 actually became the default in Proxmox 8.1, so a regular dist-upgrade should bring it in. Run “zpool --version” after rebooting and double check you get this:

    zfs-2.2.0-pve4 zfs-kmod-2.2.0-pve4

    As this versions are patched for bug.

      The statement is very informative. The bug happens under increased read/write operations to the same file causing a race condition.

      I also found interesting:

      Despite the bug being present in OpenZFS for many years, this issue has not been found to impact any TrueNAS systems. The bug fix is scheduled to be included in OpenZFS 2.2.2 within the next week

    It looks like due to the older coreutils Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is unlikely to be affected as much. So if you’re on Ubuntu LTS and have not compiled it yourself, you might have dodged data corruption.

    Would this corruption be caught by the checksumming?

    No

      This seems to affect ZFS >=2.2.0. Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is on ZFS 2.1.5

      Nope!

      OpenZFS through 2.1.13 and 2.2.x through 2.2.1 contain this bug.

      This issue occurs less often in version 2.2.1, and in versions before 2.1.4, because of the default configuration in those versions.

      From here

        Weird. Reading the issue on GitHub I got the impression that it affects 2.2.0+.

        Also I glanced something that the version of coreutils also contributes to the interaction.

        E: Seems like Ubuntu LTS is unlikely to be affected a lot due to the older coreutils.

            At this point I think I’m just gonna wait for the patch to land in Ubuntu.

    But my filesystem has RAID and checksums and I use ECC memory, I don’t need backups /s
