The string output returned +by reading this file will contain either "+4.1" or "-4.1" +correspondingly. + +Currently, server support for minorversion 1 is enabled by default. +It can be disabled at run time by writing the string "-4.1" to +the /proc/fs/nfsd/versions control file. Note that to write this +control file, the nfsd service must be taken down. You can use rpc.nfsd +for this; see rpc.nfsd(8). + +(Warning: older servers will interpret "+4.1" and "-4.1" as "+4" and +"-4", respectively. Therefore, code meant to work on both new and old +kernels must turn 4.1 on or off *before* turning support for version 4 +on or off; rpc.nfsd does this correctly.) + +The NFSv4 minorversion 1 (NFSv4.1) implementation in nfsd is based +on RFC 5661. + +From the many new features in NFSv4.1 the current implementation +focuses on the mandatory-to-implement NFSv4.1 Sessions, providing +"exactly once" semantics and better control and throttling of the +resources allocated for each client. + +The table below, taken from the NFSv4.1 document, lists +the operations that are mandatory to implement (REQ), optional +(OPT), and NFSv4.0 operations that are required not to implement (MNI) +in minor version 1. The first column indicates the operations that +are not supported yet by the linux server implementation. + +The OPTIONAL features identified and their abbreviations are as follows: + +- **pNFS** Parallel NFS +- **FDELG** File Delegations +- **DDELG** Directory Delegations + +The following abbreviations indicate the linux server implementation status. + +- **I** Implemented NFSv4.1 operations. +- **NS** Not Supported. +- **NS\*** Unimplemented optional feature. + +Operations +========== +

++-----------------------+-------------------------+---------------------+---------------------------+---------------+ + + +Implementation notes: +===================== + +SSV: + The spec claims this is mandatory, but we don't actually know of any + implementations, so we're ignoring it for now. The server returns + NFS4ERR_ENCR_ALG_UNSUPP on EXCHANGE_ID, which should be future-proof. + +GSS on the backchannel: + Again, theoretically required but not widely implemented (in + particular, the current Linux client doesn't request it). We return + NFS4ERR_ENCR_ALG_UNSUPP on CREATE_SESSION. + +DELEGPURGE: + mandatory only for servers that support CLAIM_DELEGATE_PREV and/or + CLAIM_DELEG_PREV_FH (which allows clients to keep delegations that + persist across client reboots). Thus we need not implement this for + now. + +EXCHANGE_ID: + implementation ids are ignored + +CREATE_SESSION: + backchannel attributes are ignored + +SEQUENCE: + no support for dynamic slot table renegotiation (optional) + +Nonstandard compound limitations: + No support for a sessions fore channel RPC compound that requires both a + ca_maxrequestsize request and a ca_maxresponsesize reply, so we may + fail to live up to the promise we made in CREATE_SESSION fore channel + negotiation. + +See also http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues. |
