When a filesystem is exported to NFS clients, NFSv4 state
(opens, locks, delegations, layouts) holds references that
prevent the underlying filesystem from being unmounted.
NFSD_CMD_UNLOCK_FILESYSTEM addresses this at superblock
granularity, but administrators unexporting a single path on a
shared filesystem (e.g., one of several exports on the same device)
need finer control.
Add NFSD_CMD_UNLOCK_EXPORT, which revokes NFSv4 state acquired
through exports of a specific path. Matching is by path identity
(dentry + vfsmount) via the sc_export field on each nfs4_stid,
so multiple svc_export objects for the same path -- one per
auth_domain -- are handled correctly without requiring the caller
to name a specific client.
The command takes a single "path" attribute. Userspace (exportfs
-u) sends this after removing the last client for a given path,
enabling the underlying filesystem to be unmounted. When multiple
clients share an export path, individual unexports do not trigger
state revocation; only the final one does.
