r335012 (the big patch that added the pNFS server support) revised the nfsd= ->kernel nfssvc(2) syscall interface. It has compatibility code, so that old nfsd binaries still work. I now need to revise this interface again to add a new pNFS server feature. Since the revised interface is only in head/current starting at r335012, I believe I can revise it again without an additional compatibility shim for r335012 or later nfsd binaries. Is this correct? I would post a HEADS UP to this email list and the only code affected would= be sites running current/head and using the "-p" (pNFS server) option, so they= would be few, if any. rick=
