Linux NFS Implementation

Hello All

Are all NFSv3 Fuctions Implemented in Linux (like readdirplus) ?

What C Funtions should be best used to open / read a file on a NFS Server ? Or doesn't it make a difference ?

Kind regards

Are you talking about the client or the server?

The standard POSIX functions should be fine.

READDIRPLUS is not yet implemented. I have patches on

http://www.fys.uio.no/~trondmy/src/<kernel_version>

that do so, but they have not been merged into the kernel.

There is also some work to be done in order to implement proper versions of NFSv3 exclusive open, and the ACCESS call, but those will both probably require VFS changes...

Cheers,
Trond
