NFSv4 differs from v2 and v3 in that it presents a single unified filesystem tree, whereas v2 and v3 exported multiple filesystem (whose roots could be found using a separate mount protocol). Our original NFSv4 server implementation asked the administrator to designate a single filesystem as the NFSv4 root, then to mount filesystems they wished to export underneath. (Often using bind mounts of already-existing filesystems.) This was conceptually simple, and allowed easy implementation, but created a serious obstacle to upgrading between v2/v3: since the paths to v4 filesystems were different, administrators would have to adjust all the paths in client-side mount commands when switching to v4. Various workarounds are possible. For example, the administrator could export "/" and designate it as the v4 root. However, the security risks of that approach are obvious, and in any case we shouldn't be requiring the administrator to take extra steps to fix this problem; instead, the server should present consistent paths across different versions by default. These patches take a modified version of that approach: we provide a new export option which exports only a subset of a filesystem. With this flag, it becomes safe for mountd to export "/" by default, with no need for additional configuration. We begin just by defining the new flag.
