[Q] I tried to mount nfs_server:/mnt volume, but It mounted another volume.

[Hiroyuki Sato]

Hello lists

OS: CentOS 5.5
kernel: 2.6.36 rebuild myself.


  I'm trying to test NFS/RDMA.
  I tried to mount nfs_server:/mnt volume on on nfs_client
  but It mounted nfs_server:/nfstest volume

  note: /nfstest is tmpfs

 this is mount output
    tmpfs on /nfstest type tmpfs (rw,size=4g)
    /dev/sdb1 on /mnt type ext3 (rw)

  Is this bug??

NFS server config

  # ls -1 /mnt
  This_is_mnt_volume

  # ls -1 /nfstest
  This_is_nfstest_volume

  # cat /etc/exports
  /nfstest   192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0(fsid=0,rw,async,insecure,no_root_squash)
  /mnt       192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0(fsid=0,rw,async,insecure,no_root_squash)


  # modprobe svcrdma

  # /sbin/service nfs start

  # echo rdma 20049 > /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist

You must not have two exports with fsid=0. First one is picked. 

nfs4 will only export a single name space point, other exports are
subdirs of that root export. (use bind mounts to present a single
directory tree)

<http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/nfsv4/linux/using-nfsv4.html>

NFSv4 exports on linux
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NFSv4 no longer has a separate "mount" protocol. Instead of exporting a number of distinct exports, an NFSv4 client sees the NFSv4 server's exports as existing inside a single filesystem, called the nfsv4 "pseudofilesystem".

On the current linux implementation, the pseudofilesystem is a single real filesystem, identified at export with the fsid=0 option.

In the example above, we exported only a single filesystem, which the client mounted as "/". You can provide clients with multiple filesystems to mount, producing NFSv3-like-behavior, by creative use of mount --bind. For example, you could export /usr/local/bin to clients as /bin and /usr/local/etc as /etc as follows:

mkdir /export
mkdir /export/bin
mkdir /export/etc
mount --bind /usr/local/bin /export/bin
mount --bind /usr/local/etc /export/etc
exportfs -ofsid=0,insecure,no_subtree_check *:/export
exportfs -orw,nohide,insecure,no_subtree_check *:/export/bin
exportfs -orw,nohide,insecure,no_subtree_check *:/export/etc

Note that the paths returned by the "showmount" program are meaningful only to clients using nfs versions 2 and 3; in the above example, "showmount" will list the paths /export, /export/bin/, and /export/etc, but nfsv4 clients should mount yourserver:/, yourserver:/bin, or yourserver:/etc.

We should update and/or replace that documentation; with new nfs-utils
and kernel, if you omit the "fsid=0", you'll end up with an nfsv4
namespace that's the same as v2/v3's always was.

Re: [Q] I tried to mount nfs_server:/mnt volume, but It mounted another volume.

[Roland Dreier]

Yes, as Boaz said, having two exports with fsid=0 is the problem:

 >   # cat /etc/exports
 >   /nfstest   192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0(fsid=0,rw,async,insecure,no_root_squash)
 >   /mnt       192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0(fsid=0,rw,async,insecure,no_root_squash)

you could have seen this in the server log from this:

 >   Nov 21 20:47:37 dell1435 mountd[3575]: /nfstest and /mnt have same
 > filehandle for 192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0, using first
