Hi pals, I'm now looking into zfs source and have been puzzled about
128-bit. It's announced that ZFS is an 128-bit file system. But what does
128-bit mean? Does that mean the addressing capability is 2^128? But in the
source, 'zp_size' (in 'struct znode_phys'), the file size in bytes, is
defined as uint64_t. So I guess 128-bit may be the bit width of the zpool
pointer, but where is it defined?

Regards,

Wu Shu
