This issue is not only limited to the 5.x version of the kernel. It also affects 4.19.38 and newer (also 4.14.120 and newer but that doesn't matter in this case). Debian 4.19.0-6
package is based on 4.19.67 version of the kernel so not much to do about that. You can either rebuild your own kernel with the NixOS patch or use an older package.
I can see here that it apparently was fixed in 0.8.1?
[insert confused/surprised gif here] There is no mention of FPU fix in that news. In the future please read release notes, not random news articles.
This will be resolved in 0.8.3, by #9515.
System information
Describe the problem you're observing
Hi. I've installed Debian Buster onto a FX-8350 machine and can see that ZFS doesn't use the FPU. According to #9415 the problem should exist only with 5.0 and later kernels, but I still see that in my case ZFS doesn't use SSE/AVX. I'm also using an encrypted pool.
I followed this guide initially: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Debian-Buster-Root-on-ZFS
Describe how to reproduce the problem
Install Debian Buster on an AMD Piledriver machine, then install ZFS from backports according to https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Debian-Buster-Root-on-ZFS
