A recent email discussion indicated that a large
accumulation of NFSv4 Opens was occurring on
a mount. This appears to have been caused by a
shared library within the mount being used by
several processes, such that there is always at
least one of these processes running.
A new Open was created by each process and
were not closed, since all the Opens were never
closed. This is alleviated by using the
"oneopenown" mount option.
This man page update attempts to indicate the
use of "oneopenown" for this case.
This is a content change.

commit 665b1365fe added a new NFS mount option that is used to set a

Recent commits to head have added support for NFS over TLS
to the FreeBSD kernel.
To enable use of this for an NFS mount, the "tls" mount_nfs
option has been added.

r355677 added NFSv4.2 support to the NFS client. This patch updates the
mount_nfs.8 man page to reflect that.
It also clarifies that the "nolockd" option does not apply to NFSv4 mounts.
This is a content change.
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

Our mount_nfs does use -o nfsv<2|3|4> or -2 or -3 to specify the version.
OSX (these days), Solaris, and Linux use -o vers=<2,3,4>.
With the upcoming autofs support we can make a lot of (entrerprisy) setups
getting mount options from LDAP just work by providing -o vers= compatibility.

time before falling back to a LOOKUP RPC, even if the ctime for the file
handle matches the cached copy in the name cache entry. The timeout is
configured via a new 'nametimeo' mount option and defaults to 60 seconds.
It may be set to zero to disable positive name caching entirely.

It also includes a change to mount.c, so that it knows about

option, and pass the iovec down to the kernel via nmount(). These options
are then parsed in the kernel.
This should make it easier to add new NFS mount options in future.
Many, many thanks to Doug Rabson for taking my initial patches,
and cleaning them up. In addition, Doug added a fallback_mount()
function so that the newer mount_nfs program will work against older
kernels, to facilitate upgrading/downgrading scenarios.
Doug also re-wrote the mount_nfs.8 man page.

to give up after one attempt unless a background mount is requested.
Background mounts would retry 10000 times (at least 7 days) before
giving up.
For some situations such as diskless terminals, an NFS filesystem
may be critical to the boot process, so neither the "try once" nor
background mounts are appropiate. To cater for this situation,
unbreak the -R (retry count) parameter so that it also works in
the non-background case. Interpret a zero retry count as "retry
forever".
The defaults are now "try once" for non-background mounts and "retry
forever" for background mounts; both can be overridden via -R.
Add a description of this behaviour to the manpage.
