syscall interface to kernel nfs daemon

SYNOPSIS

    #include <linux/nfsd/syscall.h> nfsservctl(int cmd , struct nfsctl_arg * argp , union nfsctl_res * resp );

DESCRIPTION

    /*
     * These are the commands understood by nfsctl().
     */
    #define NFSCTL_SVC              0       /* This is a server process. */
    #define NFSCTL_ADDCLIENT        1       /* Add an NFS client. */
    #define NFSCTL_DELCLIENT        2       /* Remove an NFS client. */
    #define NFSCTL_EXPORT           3       /* export a file system. */
    #define NFSCTL_UNEXPORT         4       /* unexport a file system. */
    #define NFSCTL_UGIDUPDATE       5       /* update a client's uid/gid map. */
    #define NFSCTL_GETFH            6       /* get an fh (used by mountd) */
    

    struct nfsctl_arg { int ca_version; /* safeguard */ union { struct nfsctl_svc u_svc; struct nfsctl_client u_client; struct nfsctl_export u_export; struct nfsctl_uidmap u_umap; struct nfsctl_fhparm u_getfh; unsigned int u_debug; } u; }

    union nfsctl_res { struct knfs_fh cr_getfh; unsigned int cr_debug; };

RETURN VALUE

    On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
