Currently turning on NFSv4.2 results in 4.2 clients suddenly seeing the individual file labels as they're set on the server. This is not what they've previously seen, and not appropriate in may cases. (In particular, if clients have heterogenous security policies then one client's labels may not even make sense to another.) Labeled NFS should be opted in only in those cases when the administrator knows it makes sense. It's helpful to be able to turn 4.2 on by default, and otherwise the protocol upgrade seems free of regressions. So, default labeled NFS to off and provide an export flag to reenable it. Users wanting labeled NFS support on an export will henceforth need to: - make sure 4.2 support is enabled on client and server (as before), and - upgrade the server nfs-utils to a version supporting the new "security_label" export flag. - set that "security_label" flag on the export. This is commit may be seen as a regression to anyone currently depending on security labels. We believe those cases are currently rare. Reported-by: tibbs@math.uh.edu Signed-off-by: J.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
