Hi Jim,

I tried to find documentation about that magic number.

There seem to exist several implementations of ZFS [1],
and I could find it only for the ZFSONLINUX project [2],
but not in the official OpenSolaris ZFS specification [3].

Can we be sure that 0x2fc12fc1 is used for all ZFS
implementations?

Have a nice day,
Berny
