The purpose of this series is to provide an iterface to the filecache which can be used without a struct svc_rqst, and without any xprt. This interface is realised in the final patch as nfsd_file_acquire_local(). That function currently takes and nfs_vers option. That was a natural fallout of the refactorisation that lead here, but it probably isn't wanted. I need to review exactly what effect it has - mostly it is about error code choice I think. The function also takess a 'struct auth_domain*'. It is not clear how a caller would get hold of such a thing. I suspect that the server should register a "local-io" auth_domain in the nfsd_net, and it should be used here. Comments on design and implementation most welcome. Thanks, NeilBrown [PATCH 1/6] nfsd: introduce __fh_verify which takes explicit nfsd_net [PATCH 2/6] nfsd: add cred parameter to __fh_verify() [PATCH 3/6] nfsd: pass nfs_vers explicitly to __fh_verify() [PATCH 4/6] nfsd: pass client explicitly to __fh_verify() [PATCH 5/6] nfsd: __fh_verify now treats NULL rqstp as a trusted [PATCH 6/6] nfsd: add nfsd_file_acquire_local().
