155 > 20150621:
156 >        libmport now automatically stops services when deleting packages.

168 >        match the server configuration.
169 >
170 >        ZFS
171 >
172 >        Added ZFS TRIM support which is enabled by default. To disable
173 >        ZFS TRIM support set vfs.zfs.trim.enabled=0 in loader.conf.
174 >
175 >        Creating new ZFS pools and adding new devices to existing pools
176 >        first performs a full device level TRIM which can take a significant
177 >        amount of time. The sysctl vfs.zfs.vdev.trim_on_init can be set to 0
178 >        to disable this behaviour.
179 >
180 >        ZFS TRIM requires the underlying device support BIO_DELETE which
181 >        is currently provided by methods such as ATA TRIM and SCSI UNMAP
182 >        via CAM, which are typically supported by SSD's.
183 >
184 >        Stats for ZFS TRIM can be monitored by looking at the sysctl's
185 >        under kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim.
186 >
187 >        rc.d
