2009-10-27nfs: new subdir Documentation/filesystems/nfsJ. Bruce Fields
We're adding enough nfs documentation that it may as well have its own subdirectory. Acked-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2007-10-22exportfs: update documentationChristoph Hellwig
Update documentation to the current state of affairs. Remove duplicated method descruptions in exportfs.h and point to Documentation/filesystems/ Exporting instead. Add a little file header comment in expfs.c describing what's going on and mentioning Neils and my copyright [1]. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: "J.

2002-04-15[PATCH] PATCH - Create "export_operations" interface for filesystems to describeNeil Brown
Create "export_operations" interface for filesystems to describe whether and how they should be exported. - add new field in struct super_block "s_export_op" to describe how a filesystem is exported (i.e. how filehandles are mapped to dentries). - New module: fs/exportfs for holding helper code for mapping between filehandles and dentries - Change nfsd to use new interface if it exists. - Change ext2 to provide new interface - Add documention to filesystems/Exporting If s_export_op isn't set, old mechanism still works, but it is planned to remove old method and only use s_export_op.
2002-04-15[PATCH] dcache changes for preparing for "export_operations" interface for ↵Neil Brown
nfsd to use. Prepare for new export_operations interface (for filehandle lookup): - define d_splice_alias and d_alloc_anon. - define shrink_dcache_anon for removing anonymous dentries - modify d_move to work with anonymous dentries (IS_ROOT dentries) - modify d_find_alias to avoid anonymous dentries where possible as d_splice_alias and d_alloc_anon use this - put in place infrastructure for s_anon allocation and cleaning - replace a piece of code that is in nfsfh, reiserfs and fat with a call to d_alloc_anon - Rename DCACHE_NFSD_DISCONNECTED to DCACHE_DISCONNECTED - Add documentation at Documentation/filesystems/Exporting
