lockd and pg_authenticate in 2.6.10
Subsystems (2)
Hi,
I remember one of the reasons why pg_authenticate was introduced were the problems with lockd callbacks. But in 2.6.10 I cannot see lockd using it at all; only the NFSv4 code does.
Am I missing something?

pg_authenticate has only ever been used for NFSv4 callbacks. I submitted a series of patches that replace pg_authenticate by a more fine-grained callback:

which work for me, but I haven't heard anything positive or negative from anyone else.--b.
