+## How do I compile zfs on apple silicon debian?
+
+- In order to build zfs you need the rust environment. So from the m1-debian
+ repository you have to run these scripts:
+
+ ./dependencies.sh
+ ./prepare_rust.sh
+
+- Prepare your zfs build environment. You need to replace
+ /home/sithglan/work/m1-debian with your path to
+ your m1-debian checkout:
+
+ export CARGO_HOME="/home/sithglan/work/m1-debian/build/cargo"
+ export RUSTUP_HOME="/home/sithglan/work/m1-debian/build/rust"
+ source "/home/sithglan/work/m1-debian/build/cargo/env"
+
+- You have to specify the default rust version:
+
+ rustup default 1.68.2
+
+- Tell zfs which version of clang you use to compile the kernel:
+
+ export KERNEL_LLVM=-15
+
+- Checkout ZFS:
+
+ git clone https://github.com/openzfs/zfs
+ cd ./zfs
+ git checkout master
+
