Does NFS-Ganesha support IPv6 wildcards (e.g., fd00:*::/64) in CLIENT entries?

by sagaragarwal1995＠gmail.com

Hi everyone, I’m trying to configure IPv6 client access in my NFS-Ganesha setup and was wondering if wildcard or subnet-style entries are supported in the CLIENT section of the export configuration. for examle: CLIENT { Clients = fd00:*::; Access_Type = RW; } Is this syntax valid for allowing all clients under the fd00 IPv6 range, similar to how IPv4 wildcards like 192.168.*.0 work? Or should IPv6 subnets only be specified using CIDR notation (e.g., fd00::/64)? I verified it with vfs, but this was giving "Unexpected character" error. Thanks in advance for any insights! — Sagar

[S] Change in ...nfs-ganesha[next]: Support disabling dentry caching for export

by Sachin Punadikar (GerritHub)

Sachin Punadikar has uploaded this change for review. ( https://review.gerrithub.io/c/ffilz/nfs-ganesha/+/1224008?usp=email ) Change subject: Support disabling dentry caching for export ...................................................................... Support disabling dentry caching for export By default, mdcache caches dentries unless disabled by config option "Dir_Chunk = 0". Caching of dentries helps in improved performance. In certain scenarios like underneath FSAL recommends not to cache dentries (like CEPH) or in case the export is getting changed outside of NFS protocol, then disabling dentry caching helps. One need to add below config value in EXPORT block.

[XS] Change in ...nfs-ganesha[next]: Fix RDDR11/RDDR12 pynfs failures by ignoring dircount==0 as entry limit

by Name of user not set (GerritHub)

Vidya.Thumukunta(a)ibm.com has uploaded this change for review. ( https://review.gerrithub.io/c/ffilz/nfs-ganesha/+/1224002?usp=email ) Change subject: Fix RDDR11/RDDR12 pynfs failures by ignoring dircount==0 as entry limit ...................................................................... Fix RDDR11/RDDR12 pynfs failures by ignoring dircount==0 as entry limit READDIR was returning NFS4ERR_TOOSMALL when dircount=0, as it was treated as “no entries allowed.” Per RFC 8881, dircount==0 means “no limit,” and the server should rely on maxcount to bound the reply. This change skips the entry-limit check when dircount==0, allowing correct NFS4_OK or NFS4ERR_ACCESS responses.
