As the FSF (Free Software Foundation) claimed that there was a legal incompatibility between the CDDL and the GPL in 2005, Sun's implementation of the ZFS file system couldn't be used as a basis for the development of a module in the Linux kernel, couldn't be merged into the mainline Linux kernel, and Linux distributions generally did not include it as a precompiled kernel module.

FSF's free software and OSI's open-source licenses together are called FOSS licenses. There are licenses accepted by the OSI which are not free as per the Free Software Definition. The Open Source Definition allows for further restrictions like price, type of contribution and origin of the contribution, e.g. the case of the NASA Open Source ...
Zstd is the corresponding reference implementation in C, released as open-source software on 31 August 2016. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The algorithm was published in 2018 as RFC 8478 , which also defines an associated media type "application/zstd", filename extension "zst", and HTTP content encoding "zstd".
