I get the following exportfs 1.2.0 warning:

exportfs: Warning: /adir does not support NFS export.

Although everything works fine, I'm worried about this.

The directoy "/adir" is the path to a ISOZFS loop mounted image.
The ISO(Z)FS image itself resides on a UBIFS filesystem (/flashfs/isozfs_image.iso).
The root dir ("/"), as well as "/adir" and "/flashfs" is initramfs.

So afaik I'm exporting a ISOFS, this is supported by nfsd (in the kernel), so
why is the warning there ?

I know UBIFS doesn't support to be (nfsd) exported by the kernel,
but ISO(Z)FS and initramfs do, right ?

Am I doing something illegal ?

any feedback is appreciated, please cc me in the reply as I am not subscribed.
