2config NFS_FS
3	tristate "NFS client support"
4	depends on INET && FILE_LOCKING && MULTIUSER
5	select LOCKD
6	select SUNRPC
7	select NFS_ACL_SUPPORT if NFS_V3_ACL
8	help
9	  Choose Y here if you want to access files residing on other
10	  computers using Sun's Network File System protocol.  To compile
11	  this file system support as a module, choose M here: the module
12	  will be called nfs.
13
14	  To mount file systems exported by NFS servers, you also need to
15	  install the user space mount.nfs command which can be found in
16	  the Linux nfs-utils package, available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
17	  Information about using the mount command is available in the
18	  mount(8) man page.  More detail about the Linux NFS client
19	  implementation is available via the nfs(5) man page.
20
21	  Below you can choose which versions of the NFS protocol are
22	  available in the kernel to mount NFS servers.  Support for NFS
23	  version 2 (RFC 1094) is always available when NFS_FS is selected.
24
25	  To configure a system which mounts its root file system via NFS
26	  at boot time, say Y here, select "Kernel level IP
27	  autoconfiguration" in the NETWORK menu, and select "Root file
28	  system on NFS" below.  You cannot compile this file system as a
29	  module in this case.
30
31	  If unsure, say N.
32
33config NFS_V2
34	tristate "NFS client support for NFS version 2"
35	depends on NFS_FS
36	default y
37	help
38	  This option enables support for version 2 of the NFS protocol
39	  (RFC 1094) in the kernel's NFS client.
40
41	  If unsure, say Y.
42
43config NFS_V3
44	tristate "NFS client support for NFS version 3"
45	depends on NFS_FS
46	default y
47	help
48	  This option enables support for version 3 of the NFS protocol
49	  (RFC 1813) in the kernel's NFS client.
50
51	  If unsure, say Y.
52
53config NFS_V3_ACL
54	bool "NFS client support for the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension"
55	depends on NFS_V3
56	help
57	  Some NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that
58	  Sun added to Solaris but never became an official part of the
59	  NFS version 3 protocol.  This protocol extension allows
60	  applications on NFS clients to manipulate POSIX Access Control
61	  Lists on files residing on NFS servers.  NFS servers enforce
62	  ACLs on local files whether this protocol is available or not.
63
64	  Choose Y here if your NFS server supports the Solaris NFSv3 ACL
65	  protocol extension and you want your NFS client to allow
66	  applications to access and modify ACLs on files on the server.
67
68	  Most NFS servers don't support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol
69	  extension.  You can choose N here or specify the "noacl" mount
70	  option to prevent your NFS client from trying to use the NFSv3
71	  ACL protocol.
72
73	  If unsure, say N.
74
75config NFS_V4
76	tristate "NFS client support for NFS version 4"
77	depends on NFS_FS
78	select SUNRPC_GSS
79	select KEYS
80	help
81	  This option enables support for version 4 of the NFS protocol
82	  (RFC 3530) in the kernel's NFS client.
83
84	  To mount NFS servers using NFSv4, you also need to install user
85	  space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils package,
86	  available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
87
88	  If unsure, say Y.
89
90config NFS_SWAP
91	bool "Provide swap over NFS support"
92	default n
93	depends on NFS_FS && SWAP
94	select SUNRPC_SWAP
95	help
96	  This option enables swapon to work on files located on NFS mounts.
97
98config NFS_V4_1
99	bool "NFS client support for NFSv4.1"
100	depends on NFS_V4
101	select SUNRPC_BACKCHANNEL
102	help
103	  This option enables support for minor version 1 of the NFSv4 protocol
104	  (RFC 5661) in the kernel's NFS client.
105
106	  If unsure, say N.
107
108config NFS_V4_2
109	bool "NFS client support for NFSv4.2"
110	depends on NFS_V4_1
111	help
112	  This option enables support for minor version 2 of the NFSv4 protocol
113	  in the kernel's NFS client.
114
115	  If unsure, say N.
116
117config PNFS_FILE_LAYOUT
118	tristate
119	depends on NFS_V4_1
120	default NFS_V4
121
122config PNFS_BLOCK
123	tristate
124	depends on NFS_V4_1 && BLK_DEV_DM
125	default NFS_V4
126
127config PNFS_FLEXFILE_LAYOUT
128	tristate
129	depends on NFS_V4_1 && NFS_V3
130	default m
131
132config NFS_V4_1_IMPLEMENTATION_ID_DOMAIN
133	string "NFSv4.1 Implementation ID Domain"
134	depends on NFS_V4_1
135	default "kernel.org"
136	help
137	  This option defines the domain portion of the implementation ID that
138	  may be sent in the NFS exchange_id operation.  The value must be in
139	  the format of a DNS domain name and should be set to the DNS domain
140	  name of the distribution.
141	  If the NFS client is unchanged from the upstream kernel, this
142	  option should be set to the default "kernel.org".
143
144config NFS_V4_1_MIGRATION
145	bool "NFSv4.1 client support for migration"
146	depends on NFS_V4_1
147	default n
148	help
149	  This option makes the NFS client advertise to NFSv4.1 servers that
150          it can support NFSv4 migration.
151
152          The NFSv4.1 pieces of the Linux NFSv4 migration implementation are
153          still experimental.  If you are not an NFSv4 developer, say N here.
154
155config NFS_V4_SECURITY_LABEL
156	bool
157	depends on NFS_V4_2 && SECURITY
158	default y
159
160config ROOT_NFS
161	bool "Root file system on NFS"
162	depends on NFS_FS=y && IP_PNP
163	help
164	  If you want your system to mount its root file system via NFS,
165	  choose Y here.  This is common practice for managing systems
166	  without local permanent storage.  For details, read
167	  <file:Documentation/admin-guide/nfs/nfsroot.rst>.
168
169	  Most people say N here.
170
171config NFS_FSCACHE
172	bool "Provide NFS client caching support"
173	depends on NFS_FS=m && FSCACHE || NFS_FS=y && FSCACHE=y
174	help
175	  Say Y here if you want NFS data to be cached locally on disc through
176	  the general filesystem cache manager
177
178config NFS_USE_LEGACY_DNS
179	bool "Use the legacy NFS DNS resolver"
180	depends on NFS_V4
181	help
182	  The kernel now provides a method for translating a host name into an
183	  IP address.  Select Y here if you would rather use your own DNS
184	  resolver script.
185
186	  If unsure, say N
187
188config NFS_USE_KERNEL_DNS
189	bool
190	depends on NFS_V4 && !NFS_USE_LEGACY_DNS
191	select DNS_RESOLVER

194config NFS_DEBUG
195	bool
196	depends on NFS_FS && SUNRPC_DEBUG
197	select CRC32
198	default y
199
200config NFS_DISABLE_UDP_SUPPORT
201       bool "NFS: Disable NFS UDP protocol support"
202       depends on NFS_FS
203       default y
204       help
205	 Choose Y here to disable the use of NFS over UDP. NFS over UDP
206	 on modern networks (1Gb+) can lead to data corruption caused by
207	 fragmentation during high loads.
