execution of the nfsd threads while it is reloading the exports.
This avoids clients from getting intermittent access errors
when the exports are being reloaded non-atomically.
It is not an ideal solution, since requests will back up while
the nfsd threads are suspended. Also, when this option is used,
if mountd crashes while reloading exports, mountd will have to
be restarted to get the nfsd threads to resume execution.
This has been tested by Vincent Hoffman (vince at unsane.co.uk)
and John Hickey (jh at deterlab.net).
The nfse patch offers a more comprehensive solution for this issue.

entries with different security flavors are in the exports(5)
file. For that case, mountd replies with the security flavors
of the last entry and not the correct one for the client host.
This patch fixes that by storing separate copies of the flavors
for each host/net case, plus a default one for the case where
no hosts/nets are specified on an entry in the exports(5) file.
Unlike the patch in the PR, it replies with the security flavors
for the entry instead of merging the security flavors for all
the entries and replying with that.

fail with "bind: address already in use". This problem was reported
to the freebsd-stable@ mailing list on Feb. 19 under the subject
heading "statd/lockd startup failure" by george+freebsd at m5p dot com.
The problem is that the first combination of {udp,tcp X ipv4,ipv6}
would select a port# dynamically, but one of the other three combinations
would have that port# already in use. The patch is somewhat involved
because it was requested by dougb@ that the four combinations use the
same port# wherever possible. The patch splits the create_service()
function into two functions. The first goes as far as bind(2) in a
loop for up to GETPORT_MAXTRY - 1 times, attempting to use the same port#
for all four cases. If these attempts fail, the last attempt allows
the 4 cases to use different port #s. After this function has succeeded,
the second function, called complete_service(), does the rest of what
create_service() did.
The three daemons mountd, rpc.lockd and rpc.statd all have a
create_service() function that is patched in a similar way. However,
create_service() has non-trivial differences for the three daemons
that made it impractical to share the same functions between them.

NGROUPS_MAX, eliminate ABI dependencies on them, and raise the to 1024
and 1023 respectively. (Previously they were equal, but under a close
reading of POSIX, NGROUPS_MAX was defined to be too large by 1 since it
is the number of supplemental groups, not total number of groups.)
The bulk of the change consists of converting the struct ucred member
cr_groups from a static array to a pointer. Do the equivalent in
kinfo_proc.
Introduce new interfaces crcopysafe() and crsetgroups() for duplicating
a process credential before modifying it and for setting group lists
respectively. Both interfaces take care for the details of allocating
groups array. crsetgroups() takes care of truncating the group list
to the current maximum (NGROUPS) if necessary. In the future,
crsetgroups() may be responsible for insuring invariants such as sorting
the supplemental groups to allow groupmember() to be implemented as a
binary search.
Because we can not change struct xucred without breaking application
ABIs, we leave it alone and introduce a new XU_NGROUPS value which is
always 16 and is to be used or NGRPS as appropriate for things such as
NFS which need to use no more than 16 groups. When feasible, truncate
the group list rather than generating an error.
Minor changes:
- Reduce the number of hand rolled versions of groupmember().
- Do not assign to both cr_gid and cr_groups[0].
- Modify ipfw to cache ucreds instead of part of their contents since
they are immutable once referenced by more than one entity.

server unless the experimental server is the only one linked into

which is specific to NFSv4 and defines where the NFSv4 tree root is
and can be used to limit access to NFSv4 state handling operations

and server. This replaces the RPC implementation of the NFS client and
server with the newer RPC implementation originally developed
(actually ported from the userland sunrpc code) to support the NFS
Lock Manager. I have tested this code extensively and I believe it is
stable and that performance is at least equal to the legacy RPC
implementation.
The NFS code currently contains support for both the new RPC
implementation and the older legacy implementation inherited from the
original NFS codebase. The default is to use the new implementation -
add the NFS_LEGACYRPC option to fall back to the old code. When I
merge this support back to RELENG_7, I will probably change this so
that users have to 'opt in' to get the new code.
To use RPCSEC_GSS on either client or server, you must build a kernel
which includes the KGSSAPI option and the crypto device. On the
userland side, you must build at least a new libc, mountd, mount_nfs
and gssd. You must install new versions of /etc/rc.d/gssd and
/etc/rc.d/nfsd and add 'gssd_enable=YES' to /etc/rc.conf.
As long as gssd is running, you should be able to mount an NFS
filesystem from a server that requires RPCSEC_GSS authentication. The
mount itself can happen without any kerberos credentials but all
access to the filesystem will be denied unless the accessing user has
a valid ticket file in the standard place (/tmp/krb5cc_<uid>). There
is currently no support for situations where the ticket file is in a
different place, such as when the user logged in via SSH and has
delegated credentials from that login. This restriction is also
present in Solaris and Linux. In theory, we could improve this in
future, possibly using Brooks Davis' implementation of variant
symlinks.
Supporting RPCSEC_GSS on a server is nearly as simple. You must create
service creds for the server in the form 'nfs/<fqdn>@<REALM>' and
install them in /etc/krb5.keytab. The standard heimdal utility ktutil
makes this fairly easy. After the service creds have been created, you
can add a '-sec=krb5' option to /etc/exports and restart both mountd
and nfsd.
The only other difference an administrator should notice is that nfsd
doesn't fork to create service threads any more. In normal operation,
there will be two nfsd processes, one in userland waiting for TCP
connections and one in the kernel handling requests. The latter
process will create as many kthreads as required - these should be
visible via 'top -H'. The code has some support for varying the number
of service threads according to load but initially at least, nfsd uses
a fixed number of threads according to the value supplied to its '-n'
option.
