With NFSv3 nfsd will always attempt to send along WCC data to the client. This generally involves saving off the in-core inode information prior to doing the operation on the given filehandle, and then issuing a vfs_getattr to it after the op. Some filesystems (particularly clustered or networked ones) have an expensive ->getattr inode operation. Atomicity is also often difficult or impossible to guarantee on such filesystems. For those, we're best off not trying to provide WCC information to the client at all, and to simply allow it to poll for that information as needed with a GETATTR RPC. This patch adds a new flags field to struct export_operations, and defines a new EXPORT_OP_NOWCC flag that filesystems can use to indicate that nfsd should not attempt to provide WCC info in NFSv3 replies. It also adds a blurb about the new flags field and flag to the exporting documentation. The server will also now skip collecting this information for NFSv2 as well, since that info is never used there anyway. Note that this patch does not add this flag to any filesystem export_operations structures. This was originally developed to allow reexporting nfs via nfsd. Other filesystems may want to consider enabling this flag too. It's hard to tell however which ones have export operations to enable export via knfsd and which ones mostly rely on them for open-by-filehandle support, so I'm leaving that up to the individual maintainers to decide. I am cc'ing the relevant lists for those filesystems that I think may want to consider adding this though.
