Subject: [PATCH 6.18.y 4/5] exportfs,nfsd: rework checking for layout-based block device access support
Date: Thu,  5 Nov 2026 20:53:04 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106015245.3586810-4-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261106015245.3586810-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

[ Upstream commit da9baa5470dcb077a7c9806f0925c60b530c470b ]

Currently NFSD hard codes checking support for block-style layouts.
Lift the checks into a file system-helper and provide a exportfs-level
helper to implement the typical checks.

This prepares for supporting block layout export of multiple devices
per file system.
