These patches add client support for the NFS v4.2 operation READ_PLUS. This operation is triggered by doing any kind of read on a NFS v4.2 mounted filesystem. ` The spec allows for the server to return multiple data and hole segments when reading a file. Supporting this would requre a tedious amount of shifiting to make sure data is aligned properly, so I'm skipping this feature until I figure out a clean way of coding it. These patches and the corresponding server changes are available in the [read_plus] branch of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/anna/linux-nfs.git Questions? Comments? Thoughts?
