15	  Choose Y here if you want to allow other computers to access
16	  files residing on this system using Sun's Network File System
17	  protocol.  To compile the NFS server support as a module,

20	  You may choose to use a user-space NFS server instead, in which
21	  case you can choose N here.
22
23	  To export local file systems using NFS, you also need to install
24	  user space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils
25	  package, available from http://linux-nfs.org/.  More detail about
26	  the Linux NFS server implementation is available via the
27	  exports(5) man page.
28
29	  Below you can choose which versions of the NFS protocol are
30	  available to clients mounting the NFS server on this system.
31	  Support for NFS version 3 (RFC 1813) is always available when
32	  CONFIG_NFSD is selected.

39	default n
40	help
41	  NFSv2 (RFC 1094) was the first publicly-released version of NFS.
42	  Unless you are hosting ancient (1990's era) NFS clients, you don't
43	  need this.
44

51config NFSD_V3_ACL
52	bool "NFS server support for the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension"
53	depends on NFSD
54	help
55	  Solaris NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that
56	  never became an official part of the NFS version 3 protocol.
57	  This protocol extension allows applications on NFS clients to
58	  manipulate POSIX Access Control Lists on files residing on NFS
59	  servers.  NFS servers enforce POSIX ACLs on local files whether
60	  this protocol is available or not.
61
62	  This option enables support in your system's NFS server for the
63	  NFSv3 ACL protocol extension allowing NFS clients to manipulate
64	  POSIX ACLs on files exported by your system's NFS server.  NFS
65	  clients which support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol can then
66	  access and modify ACLs on your NFS server.
67
68	  To store ACLs on your NFS server, you also need to enable ACL-
69	  related CONFIG options for your local file systems of choice.
70
71	  If unsure, say N.

84	  This option enables support in your system's NFS server for
85	  version 4 of the NFS protocol (RFC 3530).
86
87	  To export files using NFSv4, you need to install additional user
88	  space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils package,
89	  available from http://linux-nfs.org/.

101	help
102	  This option enables support for the exporting pNFS block layouts
103	  in the kernel's NFS server. The pNFS block layout enables NFS
104	  clients to directly perform I/O to block devices accessible to both
105	  the server and the clients.  See RFC 5663 for more details.

126	select NFSD_PNFS
127	help
128	  This option enables support for the exporting pNFS Flex File
129	  layouts in the kernel's NFS server. The pNFS Flex File  layout
130	  enables NFS clients to directly perform I/O to NFSv3 devices
131	  accessible to both the server and the clients.  See
132	  draft-ietf-nfsv4-flex-files for more details.
133
134	  Warning, this server implements the bare minimum functionality
135	  to be a flex file server - it is for testing the client,
136	  not for use in production.

143	help
144	  This option enables support for NFSv4.2 inter server to
145	  server copy where the destination server calls the NFSv4.2
146	  client to read the data to copy from the source server.
147

153	help
154
155	Say Y here if you want enable fine-grained security label attribute
156	support for NFS version 4.  Security labels allow security modules like
157	SELinux and Smack to label files to facilitate enforcement of their policies.
158	Without this an NFSv4 mount will have the same label on each file.
159
160	If you do not wish to enable fine-grained security labels SELinux or
161	Smack policies on NFSv4 files, say N.
162
163config NFSD_LEGACY_CLIENT_TRACKING
164	bool "Support legacy NFSv4 client tracking methods (DEPRECATED)"
165	depends on NFSD_V4
166	default y
167	help
168	  The NFSv4 server needs to store a small amount of information on
169	  stable storage in order to handle state recovery after reboot. Most
170	  modern deployments upcall to a userland daemon for this (nfsdcld),
171	  but older NFS servers may store information directly in a
172	  recoverydir, or spawn a process directly using a usermodehelper
173	  upcall.
174
175	  These legacy client tracking methods have proven to be probelmatic
176	  and will be removed in the future. Say Y here if you need support
177	  for them in the interim.
