can UBIFS be NFS exported
just to make sure. UBIFS can not be NFS exported, is this correct ?
(I need NFS in our distributed system. The server uses UBIFS.
But there is a ISO9660 image on our UBIFS and fortunately ISO(Z)FS can be NFS exported, so it's not a problem)

Can you clarify on this ? I am able to use NFS as rootfs and mount ubifs over the OneNAND .

I'm talking about the kernel nfsd ability to export UBIFS. This would allow remote systems to NFS mount a UBIFS directory.
for this UBIFS should implement what's described in Documentation/filesystems/Exporting. I don't see it for UBIFS.
For JFFS2 for example I see a jffs2_export_ops in fs/jffs2/super.c.
A user-space NFS server (e.g. unfs3) could probably export UBIFS.
In your case I think you're not exporting UBIFS but just use NFS for your rootfs.

Hi, not, it does not support NFS and you would need to implement the support. Hake a look here:
http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/faq/ubifs.html#L_nfs
(Rload the page, because I've just updated it)
