6	select LOCKD

8	select NFS_COMMON
9	select NFS_ACL_SUPPORT if NFS_V3_ACL
10	help
11	  Choose Y here if you want to access files residing on other
12	  computers using Sun's Network File System protocol.  To compile
13	  this file system support as a module, choose M here: the module
14	  will be called nfs.
15
16	  To mount file systems exported by NFS servers, you also need to
17	  install the user space mount.nfs command which can be found in
18	  the Linux nfs-utils package, available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
19	  Information about using the mount command is available in the
20	  mount(8) man page.  More detail about the Linux NFS client
21	  implementation is available via the nfs(5) man page.
22
23	  Below you can choose which versions of the NFS protocol are
24	  available in the kernel to mount NFS servers.  Support for NFS
25	  version 2 (RFC 1094) is always available when NFS_FS is selected.
26
27	  To configure a system which mounts its root file system via NFS
28	  at boot time, say Y here, select "Kernel level IP
29	  autoconfiguration" in the NETWORK menu, and select "Root file
30	  system on NFS" below.  You cannot compile this file system as a
31	  module in this case.
32
33	  If unsure, say N.
34
35config NFS_V2
36	tristate "NFS client support for NFS version 2"
37	depends on NFS_FS
38	default n
39	help
40	  This option enables support for version 2 of the NFS protocol
41	  (RFC 1094) in the kernel's NFS client.
42
43	  If unsure, say N.
44
45config NFS_V3
46	tristate "NFS client support for NFS version 3"
47	depends on NFS_FS
48	default y
49	help
50	  This option enables support for version 3 of the NFS protocol
51	  (RFC 1813) in the kernel's NFS client.
52
53	  If unsure, say Y.
54
55config NFS_V3_ACL
56	bool "NFS client support for the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension"
57	depends on NFS_V3
58	help
59	  Some NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that
60	  Sun added to Solaris but never became an official part of the
61	  NFS version 3 protocol.  This protocol extension allows
62	  applications on NFS clients to manipulate POSIX Access Control
63	  Lists on files residing on NFS servers.  NFS servers enforce
64	  ACLs on local files whether this protocol is available or not.
65
66	  Choose Y here if your NFS server supports the Solaris NFSv3 ACL
67	  protocol extension and you want your NFS client to allow
68	  applications to access and modify ACLs on files on the server.
69
70	  Most NFS servers don't support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol
71	  extension.  You can choose N here or specify the "noacl" mount
72	  option to prevent your NFS client from trying to use the NFSv3
73	  ACL protocol.
74
75	  If unsure, say N.
76
77config NFS_V4
78	tristate "NFS client support for NFS version 4"
79	depends on NFS_FS
80	select KEYS
81	help
82	  This option enables support for version 4 of the NFS protocol
83	  (RFC 3530) in the kernel's NFS client.
84
85	  To mount NFS servers using NFSv4, you also need to install user
86	  space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils package,
87	  available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
88
89	  If unsure, say Y.
90
91config NFS_SWAP
92	bool "Provide swap over NFS support"
93	default n
94	depends on NFS_FS && SWAP
95	select SUNRPC_SWAP
96	help
97	  This option enables swapon to work on files located on NFS mounts.
98
99config NFS_V4_1
100	bool "NFS client support for NFSv4.1"
101	depends on NFS_V4
102	select SUNRPC_BACKCHANNEL
103	help
104	  This option enables support for minor version 1 of the NFSv4 protocol
105	  (RFC 5661) in the kernel's NFS client.
106
107	  If unsure, say N.
108
109config NFS_V4_2
110	bool "NFS client support for NFSv4.2"
111	depends on NFS_V4_1
112	help
113	  This option enables support for minor version 2 of the NFSv4 protocol
114	  in the kernel's NFS client.
115
116	  If unsure, say N.
117
118config PNFS_FILE_LAYOUT

133config NFS_V4_1_IMPLEMENTATION_ID_DOMAIN
134	string "NFSv4.1 Implementation ID Domain"
135	depends on NFS_V4_1
136	default "kernel.org"
137	help
138	  This option defines the domain portion of the implementation ID that
139	  may be sent in the NFS exchange_id operation.  The value must be in
140	  the format of a DNS domain name and should be set to the DNS domain
141	  name of the distribution.
142	  If the NFS client is unchanged from the upstream kernel, this
143	  option should be set to the default "kernel.org".
144
145config NFS_V4_1_MIGRATION
146	bool "NFSv4.1 client support for migration"
147	depends on NFS_V4_1
148	default n
149	help
150	  This option makes the NFS client advertise to NFSv4.1 servers that
151          it can support NFSv4 migration.
152
153          The NFSv4.1 pieces of the Linux NFSv4 migration implementation are
154          still experimental.  If you are not an NFSv4 developer, say N here.
155
156config NFS_V4_SECURITY_LABEL
157	bool
158	depends on NFS_V4_2 && SECURITY
159	default y
160
161config ROOT_NFS
162	bool "Root file system on NFS"
163	depends on NFS_FS=y && IP_PNP
164	help
165	  If you want your system to mount its root file system via NFS,
166	  choose Y here.  This is common practice for managing systems
167	  without local permanent storage.  For details, read
168	  <file:Documentation/admin-guide/nfs/nfsroot.rst>.
169
170	  Most people say N here.
171
172config NFS_FSCACHE
173	bool "Provide NFS client caching support"
174	depends on NFS_FS
175	select NETFS_SUPPORT
176	select FSCACHE
177	help
178	  Say Y here if you want NFS data to be cached locally on disc through
179	  the general filesystem cache manager
180
181config NFS_USE_LEGACY_DNS
182	bool "Use the legacy NFS DNS resolver"
183	depends on NFS_V4
184	help
185	  The kernel now provides a method for translating a host name into an
186	  IP address.  Select Y here if you would rather use your own DNS
187	  resolver script.
188
189	  If unsure, say N
190
191config NFS_USE_KERNEL_DNS
192	bool
193	depends on NFS_V4 && !NFS_USE_LEGACY_DNS

202config NFS_DISABLE_UDP_SUPPORT
203       bool "NFS: Disable NFS UDP protocol support"
204       depends on NFS_FS
205       default y
206       help
207	 Choose Y here to disable the use of NFS over UDP. NFS over UDP
208	 on modern networks (1Gb+) can lead to data corruption caused by
209	 fragmentation during high loads.
210
211config NFS_V4_2_READ_PLUS
212	bool "NFS: Enable support for the NFSv4.2 READ_PLUS operation"
213	depends on NFS_V4_2
214	default y
215	help
216	 Choose Y here to enable use of the NFS v4.2 READ_PLUS operation.
