Hi Bruce -
Here are some patches I'd like to propose for 2.6.31. Please review
and consider them for linux-next. They've seen a little testing here
on x86_64, but they should get some public exercise.
The first 17 are updated versions of patches I submitted for 2.6.30,
but were dropped at the last minute to simplify things. They provide
some clean-up for the nfsctl API, and a little more IPv6 support in
that area as well, in preparation for full-on IPv6-related changes to
come. I think I've addressed earlier review comments.
As usual, it would be most helpful if you would drop the whole series
if you have issues with any of these patches.
Patch 18 addresses a long-standing problem with our NLM/NSM
implementation. If lockd.ko isn't loaded before statd starts up
(which is the typical case for both our server and client) then
lockd's NSM state number is never set. We then end up sending a zero
state number in all NLM requests. This is also the case if lockd.ko
is unloaded and reloaded during normal operation -- the NSM state
number is reset to zero. See the patch description for further
detail.
Patch 19 provides a little more 64-bit alignment clean up in
nsm_init_private() .
These two are independent of all the others and either or both can be
applied as you see fit.
