Subject: NFS4 crack
Date: Sun, 18 Sep 2005 12:21:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050918102100.GA23463@lst.de> (raw)
I've recently turned on NFS4 server support accidentally, just to get
error messages like:
"NFSD: recovery directory /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery doesn't exist"
To my horror I found out that this comes from kernel code, which messes
with a hardcoded directory, completelyu ingoring any namespace or other
uses issues. The fs handling in fs/nfs/nfs4recovery.c is rather broken
in addition.
All this comes from "[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: initialize recovery directory",
commit ID 190e4fbf96037e5e526ba3210f2bcc2a3b6fe964.
Andrew, could you please back this out again, and NFS folks, please
don't do stuff like that and hide your crackpipe somewhere. And please
we really need someone sane review NFS patches I thinkg.
(not cc'ed to the nfs list because of its stupid subsribers only
policy)
