I'm not against the idea of using a function pointer, but I'm saying that the transport is not unique per-netns. Instead, the transport is usually per NFS mount, but you can always retrieve a pointer to it directly in bc_svc_process() from req->rq_xprt. > moreover, I can do not change sunrpc_net at all, > I can check in bc_svc_common() which transport uses incoming svc_req > and provide such flag as new parameter to svc_process_common(). The function or flag used by bc_svc_common() could be added to req- >rq_xprt->ops as another 'bc_' field and then passed to svc_process_common() as the parameter. -- Trond Myklebust Linux NFS client maintainer, Hammerspace trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
