Possibly even too compatible... Both the old and new NFS clients assume a 1:1 mapping between NFS error codes (NFSERR_* macros defined in <nfs/nfsproto.h>) and the E* macros in <sys/errno.h>: In the old client, the NFS status is copied from the RPC response by nfsclient/nfs_krpc.c:nfs_request(), returned and passed back up the call chain. In the new client, the status is copied from the RPC response into struct nfsrv_descript.nd_repstat by fs/nfs/nfs_commonkrpc.c:newnfs_request() and then moved into an error return in fs/nfsclient/nfs_clrpcops.c:nfsrpc_*(). This is not currently a problem but it would seem useful to include notes in <nfs/nfsproto.h> and <sys/errno.h> warning of this assumption in case of future changes. Note that both NFS servers do include code for error code mapping. -- Peter Jeremy
