From 68717908155a9dcd4161f4d730fea478712d9794 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chuck Lever Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2010 14:04:13 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: NFS kernel APIs shouldn't return ENOENT for "transport not found" write_ports() converts svc_create_xprt()'s ENOENT error return to EPROTONOSUPPORT so that rpc.nfsd (in user space) can report an error message that makes sense. It turns out that several of the other kernel APIs rpc.nfsd use can also return ENOENT from svc_create_xprt(), by way of lockd_up(). On the client side, an NFSv2 or NFSv3 mount request can also return the result of lockd_up(). This error may also be returned during an NFSv4 mount request, since the NFSv4 callback service uses svc_create_xprt() to create the callback listener. An ENOENT error return results in a confusing error message from the mount command. Let's have svc_create_xprt() return EPROTONOSUPPORT instead of ENOENT. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: J.
