VFS_CHECKEXP(9) BSD Kernel Developer's Manual VFS_CHECKEXP(9) NAME VFS_CHECKEXP -- check if a file system is exported to a client SYNOPSIS #include <sys/param.h> #include <sys/mount.h> int VFS_CHECKEXP(struct mount *mp, struct sockaddr *nam, uint64_t *exflagsp, struct ucred **credanonp, int *numsecflavor, int *secflavors); DESCRIPTION The VFS_CHECKEXP() macro is used by the NFS server to check if a mount point is exported to a client. The arguments it expects are: mp The mount point to be checked. nam An mbuf containing the network address of the client. exflagsp Return parameter for the export flags for this client. credanonp Return parameter for the anonymous credentials for this client. numsecflavors Return value for the number of security flavors for this client. secflavors Must be an array of size MAXSECFLAVORS, in which the secu- rity flavors for this client are returned. The VFS_CHECKEXP() macro should be called on a file system's mount struc- ture to determine if it is exported to a client whose address is con- tained in nam. It is called in the NFS server once a vnode for a file handle has been acquired, in order to determine what access the client is allowed on the file system the vnode resides in. For NFSv4, it is also called whenever the lookup operation crosses a server file system mount point, to update the access information. The operation is file system specific, but is normally handled by the de- fault ``vfs_stdcheckexp''. RETURN VALUES The export flags, anonymous credentials and security flavors specific to the client will be returned in *exflagsp, *credanonp, *numsecflavors and *secflavors.
