Newer kernels might not be supported by ZFS yet. If you are running a kernel which is not officially supported by zfs, the module will refuse to evaluate and show an error. Use <code>boot.kernelPackages = config.boot.zfs.package.latestCompatibleLinuxPackages;</code> to use the latest kernel compatible with zfs.

==== Partial support for SWAP on ZFS ====

ZFS does not support swapfiles. SWAP devices ~~must~~ be used instead. Additionally, hibernation is disabled by default due to a [https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/208037 high risk] of data corruption. Note that even if ~~/ after~~ that pull request is merged, it does not fully mitigate the risk. If you wish to enable hibernation regardless, set <code>boot.zfs.allowHibernation = true</code>.
