NFS: Convert v2 into a module
[mirror_ubuntu-bionic-kernel.git] / fs / nfs / Kconfig
1 config NFS_FS
2 tristate "NFS client support"
3 depends on INET && FILE_LOCKING
4 select LOCKD
5 select SUNRPC
6 select NFS_ACL_SUPPORT if NFS_V3_ACL
7 help
8 Choose Y here if you want to access files residing on other
9 computers using Sun's Network File System protocol. To compile
10 this file system support as a module, choose M here: the module
11 will be called nfs.
12
13 To mount file systems exported by NFS servers, you also need to
14 install the user space mount.nfs command which can be found in
15 the Linux nfs-utils package, available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
16 Information about using the mount command is available in the
17 mount(8) man page. More detail about the Linux NFS client
18 implementation is available via the nfs(5) man page.
19
20 Below you can choose which versions of the NFS protocol are
21 available in the kernel to mount NFS servers. Support for NFS
22 version 2 (RFC 1094) is always available when NFS_FS is selected.
23
24 To configure a system which mounts its root file system via NFS
25 at boot time, say Y here, select "Kernel level IP
26 autoconfiguration" in the NETWORK menu, and select "Root file
27 system on NFS" below. You cannot compile this file system as a
28 module in this case.
29
30 If unsure, say N.
31
32 config NFS_V2
33 tristate "NFS client support for NFS version 2"
34 depends on NFS_FS
35 default y
36 help
37 This option enables support for version 2 of the NFS protocol
38 (RFC 1094) in the kernel's NFS client.
39
40 If unsure, say Y.
41
42 config NFS_V3
43 bool "NFS client support for NFS version 3"
44 depends on NFS_FS
45 default y
46 help
47 This option enables support for version 3 of the NFS protocol
48 (RFC 1813) in the kernel's NFS client.
49
50 If unsure, say Y.
51
52 config NFS_V3_ACL
53 bool "NFS client support for the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension"
54 depends on NFS_V3
55 help
56 Some NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that
57 Sun added to Solaris but never became an official part of the
58 NFS version 3 protocol. This protocol extension allows
59 applications on NFS clients to manipulate POSIX Access Control
60 Lists on files residing on NFS servers. NFS servers enforce
61 ACLs on local files whether this protocol is available or not.
62
63 Choose Y here if your NFS server supports the Solaris NFSv3 ACL
64 protocol extension and you want your NFS client to allow
65 applications to access and modify ACLs on files on the server.
66
67 Most NFS servers don't support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol
68 extension. You can choose N here or specify the "noacl" mount
69 option to prevent your NFS client from trying to use the NFSv3
70 ACL protocol.
71
72 If unsure, say N.
73
74 config NFS_V4
75 bool "NFS client support for NFS version 4"
76 depends on NFS_FS
77 select SUNRPC_GSS
78 select KEYS
79 help
80 This option enables support for version 4 of the NFS protocol
81 (RFC 3530) in the kernel's NFS client.
82
83 To mount NFS servers using NFSv4, you also need to install user
84 space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils package,
85 available from http://linux-nfs.org/.
86
87 If unsure, say Y.
88
89 config NFS_V4_1

92 select SUNRPC_BACKCHANNEL
93 help
94 This option enables support for minor version 1 of the NFSv4 protocol
95 (RFC 5661) in the kernel's NFS client.

118 help
119 This option defines the domain portion of the implementation ID that
120 may be sent in the NFS exchange_id operation. The value must be in
121 the format of a DNS domain name and should be set to the DNS domain
122 name of the distribution.
123 If the NFS client is unchanged from the upstream kernel, this
124 option should be set to the default "kernel.org".
125
126 config ROOT_NFS
127 bool "Root file system on NFS"
128 depends on NFS_FS=y && IP_PNP
129 help
130 If you want your system to mount its root file system via NFS,
131 choose Y here. This is common practice for managing systems
132 without local permanent storage. For details, read
133 <file:Documentation/filesystems/nfs/nfsroot.txt>.
134
135 Most people say N here.

142 the general filesystem cache manager
