My own development server/builder is happily running latest main with ZFS root without any patches and with block cloning not only enabled, but even active. So as I have told, it is not needed:

Thanks for the details in your notes, including that bclone_enabled=0
is not relevant.
As a result I found out about zhack feature stat POOLNAME that shows
the ZPOOL_CONFIG_FEATURES_FOR_READ separately from then ones for
write.
Looking at the pool that I used for testing block_cloning
via poudriere bulk build activity (and sorting the for_*_obj
lists produced) . . .
The for_read_obj list (with matching line added as a suffix):
com.datto:bookmark_v2 = 0 "com.datto:bookmark_v2", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.datto:encryption = 0 "com.datto:encryption", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.delphix:bookmark_written = 0 "com.delphix:bookmark_written", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.delphix:device_removal = 0 "com.delphix:device_removal", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.delphix:embedded_data = 1 "com.delphix:embedded_data", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.delphix:extensible_dataset = 87 "com.delphix:extensible_dataset", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.delphix:head_errlog = 1 "com.delphix:head_errlog", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.delphix:hole_birth = 1 "com.delphix:hole_birth", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.delphix:redacted_datasets = 0
com.delphix:redaction_bookmarks = 0
com.joyent:multi_vdev_crash_dump = 0 "com.joyent:multi_vdev_crash_dump", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
com.klarasystems:vdev_zaps_v2 = 1 "com.klarasystems:vdev_zaps_v2", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
org.freebsd:zstd_compress = 0 "org.freebsd:zstd_compress", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
org.illumos:edonr = 0
org.illumos:lz4_compress = 1 "org.illumos:lz4_compress", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
org.illumos:sha512 = 0 "org.illumos:sha512", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
org.illumos:skein = 0 "org.illumos:skein", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
org.open-zfs:large_blocks = 0 "org.open-zfs:large_blocks", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
org.openzfs:blake3 = 0 "org.openzfs:blake3", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
org.openzfs:draid = 0
org.zfsonlinux:large_dnode = 0 "org.zfsonlinux:large_dnode", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE no
I'll note that the following of the no-match examples
are listed in openzfs-2.2 :
redacted_datasets
redaction_bookmarks
edonr
draid
In fact, only edonr is new in openzfs-2.2 compared to
openzfs-2.1-freebsd .
So it appears that the 4 are missing from at least features_for_read
but might be missing what is required to have them supported if
something else is also needed. (The "= 0" might explain the lack of
a complaint from the loader? Or is there more classification that I
do not understand?)
The for_write_obj list:
com.datto:resilver_defer = 0 "com.datto:resilver_defer", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes
com.delphix:async_destroy = 0
com.delphix:bookmarks = 0
com.delphix:empty_bpobj = 44
com.delphix:enabled_txg = 34
com.delphix:livelist = 0
com.delphix:log_spacemap = 1
com.delphix:obsolete_counts = 0 "com.delphix:obsolete_counts", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes
com.delphix:spacemap_histogram = 110 "com.delphix:spacemap_histogram", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes
com.delphix:spacemap_v2 = 1 "com.delphix:spacemap_v2", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes
com.delphix:zpool_checkpoint = 0 "com.delphix:zpool_checkpoint", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes
com.fudosecurity:block_cloning = 0
com.joyent:filesystem_limits = 0
org.openzfs:device_rebuild = 0
org.openzfs:zilsaxattr = 3
org.zfsonlinux:allocation_classes = 0
org.zfsonlinux:project_quota = 44
org.zfsonlinux:userobj_accounting = 44
So: All those "READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes" examples do not
need to be listed in features_for_read .
The following have no matches in either for_*_obj list
that zhack produced:
"com.intel:allocation_classes", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes
"org.zfsonlinux:allocation_classes", // READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes
I'll note that openzfs-2.2 and openzfs-2.1-freebsd both list:
allocation_classes
But the "READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes" status suggests this is not
a loader functional problem but may be a waste: all the
"READ-ONLY COMPATIBLE yes" could be removed from
features_for_read .
Thanks again.
