Not sure if this has been reported or not.
This is fairly minor but slightly annoying.
After fresh install of snv_64a I run zpool import to find this :
# zpool import
pool: zfs0
id: 13628474126490956011
state: ONLINE
status: The pool is formatted using an older on-disk version.
action: The pool can be imported using its name or numeric identifier, though
some features will not be available without an explicit 'zpool
upgrade'.
config:
zfs0 ONLINE
mirror ONLINE
c1t9d0 ONLINE
c0t9d0 ONLINE
mirror ONLINE
c1t10d0 ONLINE
c0t10d0 ONLINE
mirror ONLINE
c1t11d0 ONLINE
c0t11d0 ONLINE

c1t12d0 ONLINE
c0t12d0 ONLINE

c1t13d0 ONLINE
c0t13d0 ONLINE

c1t14d0 ONLINE

So I then run a zpool import but I add in the -R option and specify root thus :
# zpool import -f -R / 13628474126490956011
One would think that the "-R /" would not result in any damage but this si
the result :
# zfs list
NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
zfs0 191G 8.23G 24.5K legacy
zfs0/SUNWspro 567M 201M 567M //opt/SUNWspro
zfs0/backup 190G 8.23G 189G //export/zfs/backup
zfs0/backup/qemu 1.09G 934M 1.09G //export/zfs/qemu
zfs0/csw 124M 3.88G 124M //opt/csw
zfs0/home 239M 7.77G 239M //export/home
zfs0/titan 24.5K 8.23G 24.5K //export/zfs/titan
Note the extra / there that should not be there.
Not a simple thing to fix either :
# zfs set mountpoint=/opt/SUNWspro zfs0/SUNWspro
# zfs list
NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
zfs0 191G 8.23G 24.5K legacy
zfs0/SUNWspro 567M 201M 567M //opt/SUNWspro
zfs0/backup 190G 8.23G 189G //export/zfs/backup
zfs0/backup/qemu 1.09G 934M 1.09G //export/zfs/qemu
zfs0/csw 124M 3.88G 124M //opt/csw
zfs0/home 239M 7.77G 239M //export/home
zfs0/titan 24.5K 8.23G 24.5K //export/zfs/titan
relatively harmless.
Looks like altroot should be assumed to be / unless otherwise specified and
if it is specified to be / then the altroot can be ignored. I don't know if
that is clear but I think you know what I mean :
in /usr/src/cmd/zpool/zpool_main.c :
static int do_import(nvlist_t *config, const char *newname, const char
*mntopts, const char *altroot, int force, int argc, char **argv)
if that const char *altroot happens to be nothing more than a forward slash
char ( nul terminated ) then I think it should be ignored.
What say you ?
