    [PATCH] A basic NFSv4 client for 2.5.x · bf5344dc
    Trond Myklebust authored
    Now that all the hooks are in place, this large patch imports all
    of the new code for the NFSv4 client.
      nfs4proc.c   - procedure vectors
      nfs4xdr.c    - XDR
      nfs4state.c  - state bookkeeping (very minimal for now)
      nfs4renewd.c - a daemon (implemented as an rpc_task) to keep
                     state from expiring on the server
    
    Note: The RPCSEC_GSS authentication code is not yet included here.
      For the moment we make do with AUTH_UNIX aka. AUTH_SYS.
    
      Neither is the code to do upcalls to userland in order to do
      uid/gid <-> name mappings. Instead, stubs have been added to
      translate everything to 'nobody:nobody' == '-2:-2'
