  • Linus Torvalds removed Bcachefs code from the Linux 6.18 kernel.
  • Bcachefs was marked 'externally maintained' in Linux 6.17, keeping existing code temporarily.

  • Users must now rely on DKMS kernel modules for Bcachefs support.
  • Mainline kernel booting with Bcachefs is no longer possible.
