      nfsd: new Kconfig option for legacy client tracking · 74fd4873
      Jeff Layton authored
      We've had a number of attempts at different NFSv4 client tracking
      methods over the years, but now nfsdcld has emerged as the clear winner
      since the others (recoverydir and the usermodehelper upcall) are
      problematic.
      
      As a case in point, the recoverydir backend uses MD5 hashes to encode
      long form clientid strings, which means that nfsd repeatedly gets dinged
      on FIPS audits, since MD5 isn't considered secure. Its use of MD5 is not
      cryptographically significant, so there is no danger there, but allowing
      us to compile that out allows us to sidestep the issue entirely.
      
      As a prelude to eventually removing support for these client tracking
      methods, add a new Kconfig option that enables them. Mark it deprecated
      and make it default to N.
