Getting back to ZFS and /etc/hostid... I would think that a

done in the libc, spl, or zfs package makes no difference to me.
You still haven't explained why zfs

Is it something really wanted?
One of the many ambiguities of gethostid. :) Is it a unique

Other platforms have deprecated gethostid, that's the best way forward for
linux, IMO.
Which platforms is this? I find FreeBSD recommend to use sysctl and
KERN_HOSTID to get the hostid integer directly

Something like this should work, I guess:
if [ ! -f /etc/hostid ]; then
if [ -e /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid ]; then
sethostidfromuuid $(cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid)

When you create a ZFS pool the value of the hostid is stored inside it.
When the system is going to import a pool it checks if the hostid stored
inside the pool matches the current host hostid. If it don't matches it

"true" sometimes exits too fast, "sleep 0.1" suffices.
Due to userspace implementation (via pthread_cond_timedwait),
/bin/true might end even before the signal is delivered.
BTW, I just verified, only kfreebsd-i386 is affected,

I've tried various test values, and it doesn't require the time be
exactly MAX_INT to fail (smaller values fail also).
Please which one ?
