* nfs(5): Replace the term "netid" in mount option descriptionsChuck Lever2008-09-291-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TI-RPC introduced the concept of "netid" which is a string that is mapped to a set of transport capabilities via a netconfig database. RPC services register a netid and bindaddr with their local rpcbind daemon to advertise their ability to support particular transports. Mike Eisler noted that the use of the term "netid" in nfs(5) is not appropriate, since Linux does not treat the value of the proto= or mountproto= options as a netid proper, but rather to select a particular transport capability provided locally on the client. The Linux NFS client currently uses a simple internal mapping between these names and its own transport capabilities rather than using the names as part of an rpcbind query, thus these strings are really not netids. They are more akin to what TI-RPC calls "protocol names". Remove the term "netid" from nfs(5) for now.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Mike Eisler noted that the use of the term "netid" in the descriptions of the "proto=" option is not appropriate, since Linux does not allow "udp6" or "tcp6". Replaced the term "netid" with "transport" in nfs(5).

* mount.nfs: Add the mount option "nosharecache"Trond Myklebust2007-07-101-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Prior to David Howell's mount changes in 2.6.18, users who mounted different directories which happened to be from the same filesystem on the server would get different super blocks, and hence could choose different mount options. As long as there were no hard linked files that crossed from one subtree to another, this was quite safe. Post the changes, if the two directories are on the same filesystem (have the same 'fsid'), they will share the same super block, and hence the same mount options. Add a flag to allow users to elect not to share the NFS super block with another mount point, even if the fsids are the same. This will allow users to set different mount options for the two different super blocks, as was previously possible. It is still up to the user to ensure that there are no cache coherency issues when doing this, however the default behaviour will be to share super blocks whenever two paths result in the same fsid.
