I've gotten a few bug reports lately that if UDP is blocked at the server,

the change "Get rid of the "-i" option for mount.nfs[4] and always use the
text-based mount(2) system call for kernel version 2.6.23 and later." -- in
other words, the bug is specific to the text interface. Does anyone know why
this would be the case?
The NFS client code (nfs-utils-1.1.2) tests for

this kernel is a winner.

Chuck Lever (1):
NFS: Allow text-based mounts via compat_sys_mount
So the test should at least be > MAKE_VERSION(2, 6, 24).
