Re: why does each NFS mount have (at least) 2 rpc_clnt's ?

Hi Trond,

Does it have anything to do with the situation when we want an the same filesystem to be mounted twice somewhere else with a different flags? (i.e. RO/RW for example) If yes, I remember some discussion about it in the past (the above was not possible).
Thanks,

Ondrej
Look again at nfs_init_server_rpcclient(). The pseudoflavour is not the
only thing that is changed. We also change the soft flag and the timeout
properties of the server->client.

The point is that users sometimes want to specify per-mountpoint
transport properties, and so we try to give them that possibility, while
at the same time sharing sockets/rdma connections.

Cheers
  Trond
