Support for OpenZFS is coming, probably v0.8.5 or v0.8.6 will arrive before v2.0.0
In the mean time, if you want to give OpenZFS v2.0.0 a try on the current kernel you can try these scripts to build the debs needed.
Keep in mind that you would need to compile your files every time you want to upgrade your Armbian installation to match the kernel.
Building can take around 15-30 minutes - the process will use the RAM based tmpfs so your storage is untouched.
Credits goes to @wurmfood and @grek for putting together the original versions.
Type exit after compilation finishes to go back to default environment
Install all 'deb' files under /tmp/chroot-zfs/zfs. with 'dpkg -i'
add_chroot.sh - run manually as root or sudo user if you like:
build_zfs.sh - place under /build directory of chroot environment.
I am quite new to this topic, and I have found it to be quite complex. I primarily work with tiny MCUs and RTOSes, but I am enjoying the Linux space so far.
In essence I would like to use the Mali GPU that is embedded within the RK3399 of the Helios64 for hardware transcoding. This isn't a novel idea, as shown by these sources:
https://forum.armbian.com/topic/9272-development-rk3399-media-script/
https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/66675-36078-transcoding-rockpro64/
I am using Jellying, and in so FFMPEG to decode/encode the data streams. It seems that V4L2 is supported for hardware ecoding/decoding in the FFMPEG package, but in my experience doesn't appropriately work with the Mesa Panfrost drivers (https://wiki.debian.org/PanfrostLima) and the ARM drivers fail to compile with the kernel headers provided by the armbian-config script. I like the idea of having hardware accelerated transcoding, and I'm not even interested in 4K content, but my helios64 fails to transcode h265 (HEVC) to h264 at a playable rate. Secondly I like to have watch-togethers with my friends and I have to use my power-hungry PC for this. Of course I can introduce new hardware to do this like an arm64 laptop, but I like the all-in-one solution, and I simply can't be the only one that feels this way.
Has anyone had success with hardware acceleration? Any ROE or ongoing efforts?
