The following patches allow the admin to turn off NFSv4 uid/gid mapping if mounting using AUTH_SYS security. Minor changes w.r.t. first revision: - Added documentation in kernel-parameters.txt - Print a warning if an NFS4ERR_BADOWNER causes us to turn idmapping on again Changes w.r.t. second revision: - Ensure we propagate the NFS4ERR_BADOWNER up to the NFSv4 middle layers - Fix a typo in nfs4_handle_exception Changes w.r.t. third revision: - Work around a Linux server bug which causes pre-2.6.37 kernels to return NFS4ERR_BADNAME in cases where it should be returning NFS4ERR_BADOWNER. Trond Myklebust (5): NFSv4: If the server sends us a numeric uid/gid then accept it NFSv4: Send unmapped uid/gids to the server if the idmapper fails NFSv4: cleanup idmapper functions to take an nfs_server argument NFSv4: Propagate the error NFS4ERR_BADOWNER to nfs4_do_setattr NFSv4: Send unmapped uid/gids to the server when using auth_sys Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt | 8 +++ fs/nfs/client.c | 16 ++++++ fs/nfs/idmap.c | 87 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c | 18 +++++++- fs/nfs/nfs4xdr.c | 20 +++----- include/linux/nfs_fs_sb.h | 1 + include/linux/nfs_idmap.h | 8 ++-- 7 files changed, 123 insertions(+), 35 deletions(-) -- 1.7.3.4 -- 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
