A couple of days ago, I pointed to an article claiming that these were

facilities.
I must say, I'm very disappointed with the responses. Almost everyone

For the encryption functionality in the ZFS filesystem we use AES in CCM
or GCM mode at the block level to provide confidentiality and
authentication. There is also a SHA256 checksum per block (of the
ciphertext) that forms a Merkle tree of all the blocks in the pool.
Note that I have to
