Several users of FreeBSD identified a need to run the NFS server inside a vnet prison. This turned into a small project, where I now have a patch that does this. It is currently available at the above link for testing or on Phabricator as D37519. Without this patch, the NFS server cannot be run in a prison.

Not included in the above patch is the ability to run the rpc.tlsservd(8) and nfsuserd(8) daemons within the vnet prison. I do now have patches that allow these daemons to run in the vnet prison along with mountd(8) and nfsd(8), but I would like to get the above patch into main before adding support for rpc.tlsservd(8) or nfsuserd(8).

At this time, the code needs reviewing and testing. Hopefully this can be completed in the next few weeks, so that the patch can be committed to main and possibly also MFC’d to stable/13.
