: “as you may have noticed from earlier postings on these lists, I have
a bunch of patches that change the way knfsd interacts with
filesystems. In particular it makes it possible to export reiserfs
and other modern filesystesm (providing they have been told how to
work with knfsd).

This patch makes some substantial changes to the way knfsd maps a
filehandle into an actual file, and this has been an easy place for
obscure bugs to hide in the past.”
