From: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Currently leases are only kept locally, so there's no way for a distributed filesystem to enforce them against multiple clients. We're particularly interested in the case of nfsd exporting a cluster filesystem, in which case nfsd needs cluster-coherent leases in order to implement delegations correctly.
A couple of naive questions -- Do the semantics of these leases really match the requirements from NFSv4? Does the internal NFSv4 server state also need to be shared?
