The Linux NFSv4 Testing effort seeks to ensure that the Linux implementation of NFSv4 succeeds on all these counts. The purpose of the testing is threefold:

  • To prove that the features are implemented correctly according to spec.
  • To locate and identify bugs, and verify the fixes.
  • To give confidence to users that upgrading to NFSv4 on Linux is of benefit.
