[PATCH 0/7 nfs-utils] Assorted improvements to handling nfsmount.conf

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The handling of version specifiers in mount.nfs, and even in the kernel,
is somewhat ideosyncratic when multiple versions are listed.

For example,  "-o vers=4.1,nfsvers=3" will result in both versions being
passed to the kernel, and the kernel complaining because version 3
doesn't support minor version numbers.
Conversly, "-o nfsvers=4.1,vers=3" will result in the "nfsvers=4.1"
being stripped off and vers=3 being used.

Further, version settings found in /etc/nfsmount.conf are sometimes
ignored if a version is given on the command line, and sometimes not.
If "nfsvers=3" is in the config file, then the presense of "-o vers=4.1"
will cause it to be ignored, the presense of "-o nfsvers=4.1" will too, but
mainly because of sloppy code.  However "-o v4.1" won't cause the config
file setting to be ignored.

This series cleans up all of this and some related issues, and updates
the man page.

With other options, the last option listed on the command line wins.
I have not tried to provide that for version options.  Instead, if there
are multiple version options listed, and error is reported.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
