NFSv4.1 (sessions) Todo List

  • [2008-04-07] Support concurrent nfsv4.0 and 4.1.
    • Get rid of global nfs4_procedures and move the pointer to struct nfs_client. (TBD)
    • nfs_version4 should not be global. We apparently need to either:
      • Split nfs_version and nfs_program to nfs_{version,program}4 and nfs_{version,program}41, make them static in fs/nfs/client.c and use either based on minorversion, or
      • teach rpc code, e.g. rpc_bind_new_program about minor version (and represent it in struct rpc_version). (TBD)
    • Manage callback threads for 4.0 and 4.1
      • Can either keep a separate use count, or
      • bring them up and down together. (TBD)
  • [2008-04-07] Prepare and send nfs41 patches for review. (bhalevy)
    • Depends on support for concurrent 4.0 and 4.1 mounts.
  • [2008-04-07] Add an option for nfsv4.1 to the nfs mount program.

pNFS Todo List
