[fuse-devel] NFS export

[M. I. <ira...@ya...>]

Hi,

I have been trying to export a FUSE directory through NFS without much success. Searching on the
web I have seen a patch which is supposed to allow exporting through NFS:

List:       linux-kernel
Subject:    [PATCH 10/11] FUSE - NFS export
From:       Miklos Szeredi <miklos () szeredi ! hu>
Date:       2005-01-10 19:14:47

Looking at the latest kernels, I don't see the changes suggested in this patch applied. I am
wondering why such an old patch is not in the kernel yet. Am I missing something here? Should I
apply the patch to my kernel? Will that enable NFS export?

In file fuse/file.c in kernel 2.6.22.3 I see the following comment:

     /* This doesn't work with nfsd */
     if (!current->mm)
             return -EPERM;

Does this mean that right now one cannot export a FUSE directory through NFS?

Any comment is much appreciated.
