Hi Steve- For 2.6.33, Trond has included Jeff's patch that adds support to the kernel NFS client for "proto=netid." Here are the user space changes we think are necessary to complete this support. See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=479350 This series has seen some light testing here, and Jeff is planning to do more of his own independent testing. Note that last patch in the series has a rather full set of updates to nfs(5) that document NFS client side support for NFS over IPv6, including support for "proto=netid." Please have a look and let me know what you think. --- Chuck Lever (10): NFS man page: update nfs(5) with details about IPv6 support mount.nfs: Remove nfs_name_to_address() mount.nfs: Teach umount.nfs to recognize netids in /etc/mtab mount.nfs: proto=netid forces address family when resolving server names mount.nfs: Fix sockaddr pointer aliasing in stropts.c mount.nfs: Add new API for getting protocol family from netids mount.nfs: make nfs_lookup() global mount.nfs: support netids in v2/v3 version/transport negotiation mount.nfs: support netids in nfs_options2pmap() libnfs.a: Provide shared helpers for managing netids support/include/nfsrpc.h | 12 ++++ support/nfs/getport.c | 92 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- utils/mount/network.c | 128 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- utils/mount/network.h | 5 +- utils/mount/nfs.man | 104 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- utils/mount/nfsumount.c | 15 ++++- utils/mount/stropts.c | 114 +++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 7 files changed, 331 insertions(+), 139 deletions(-) -- Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
