Bcachefs erasure coding is a data redundancy feature that allows for errors to be corrected. The erasure coding is akin to RAID implementations. It&#8217;s further explained on the <a href=\"https:\/\/bcachefs.org\/ErasureCoding\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bcachefs Wiki<\/a> for those interested in all the technical details on the implementation. With the experimental tag dropped on it, all core functionality around it is now considered complete.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Bcachefs also now is able to handle automatic recovery from devices with bad flush\/fua support, faster recovery from unclean shutdowns, and better performance for multi-device file-systems.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Bcachefs 1.37 also now considers its journal rewind functionality to be safe to use with the file-system automatically tracking how far back it can be safely rewound.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>There are also new Bcachefs sub-commands including subvolume list, list-snapshots, and reflink-option-propagate.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Bcachefs 1.37 also brings a major update to its Principles of Operation &#8220;PoO&#8221; as around 100 pages of documentation on the file-system.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Rounding out the major highlights of Bcachefs 1.37 is adding compatibility for the current Linux 7.0 kernel code. In turn that opens up the door for some fresh Bcachefs file-system benchmarks on Phoronix.&#13;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1773604870_276_image.webp\" alt=\"bcachefs testing\"\/><\/p>\n<p>This update also features the latest on converting the Bcachefs user-space components over to the Rust programming language.<\/p>\n<p>More details on today&#8217;s Bcachefs 1.37 release via <a href=\"https:\/\/evilpiepirate.org\/git\/bcachefs-tools.git\/commit\/?id=0fecba5bae654a493733ef77fb935ffe5457eb37\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Bcachefs-tools repository<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kent Overstreet today released Bcachefs 1.37 as the newest feature release to this out-of-tree file-system driver and user-space&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":340934,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[78437,85,46,78436,78434,78433,78440,78438,78435,78439,78432,78443,125,78441,78442],"class_list":{"0":"post-340933","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-desktop-linux","9":"tag-il","10":"tag-israel","11":"tag-linux-benchmarking","12":"tag-linux-hardware-benchmarks","13":"tag-linux-hardware-reviews","14":"tag-linux-how-to","15":"tag-linux-performance","16":"tag-linux-server-benchmarks","17":"tag-open-source-graphics","18":"tag-phoronix","19":"tag-phoronix-test-suite","20":"tag-technology","21":"tag-ubuntu-benchmarks","22":"tag-ubuntu-hardware"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340933","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=340933"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340933\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/340934"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=340933"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=340933"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=340933"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
