2010-12-16NFS: Introduce new-style XDR decoding functions for NFSv2Chuck Lever
We'd like to prevent local buffer overflows caused by malicious or broken servers. New xdr_stream style decoders can do that. For efficiency, we also eventually want to be able to pass xdr_streams from call_decode() to all XDR decoding functions, rather than building an xdr_stream in every XDR decoding function in the kernel. Static helper functions are left without the "inline" directive. This allows the compiler to choose automatically how to optimize these for size or speed.

2010-12-16NFS: Introduce new-style XDR encoding functions for NFSv3Chuck Lever
We're interested in taking advantage of the safety benefits of xdr_streams. These data structures allow more careful checking for buffer overflow while encoding. More careful type checking is also introduced in the new functions. For efficiency, we also eventually want to be able to pass xdr_streams from call_encode() to all XDR encoding functions, rather than building an xdr_stream in every XDR encoding function in the kernel. To do this means all encoders must be ready to handle a passed-in xdr_stream. The new encoders follow the modern paradigm for XDR encoders: BUG on error, and always return a zero status code. Static helper functions are left without the "inline" directive. This allows the compiler to choose automatically how to optimize these for size or speed.

2009-06-18NFS: Clean up MNT program definitionsChuck Lever
Clean up: Relocate MNT program procedure number definitions to the only file that uses them. Relocate the version number definitions, which are shared, to nfs.h. Remove duplicate program number definitions. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
