With NFSv3 nfsd will always attempt to send along WCC data to the
client. This generally involves saving off the in-core inode information
prior to doing the operation on the given filehandle, and then issuing a
vfs_getattr to it after the op.
Some filesystems (particularly clustered or networked ones) have an
expensive ->getattr inode operation. Atomicity is also often difficult
or impossible to guarantee on such filesystems. For those, we're best
off not trying to provide WCC information to the client at all, and to
simply allow it to poll for that information as needed with a GETATTR
RPC.
This patch adds a new flags field to struct export_operations, and
defines a new EXPORT_OP_NOWCC flag that filesystems can use to indicate
that nfsd should not attempt to provide WCC info in NFSv3 replies. It
also adds a blurb about the new flags field and flag to the exporting
documentation.
The server will also now skip collecting this information for NFSv2 as
well, since that info is never used there anyway.
Note that this patch does not add this flag to any filesystem
export_operations structures. This was originally developed to allow
reexporting nfs via nfsd.
Other filesystems may want to consider enabling this flag too. It's hard
to tell however which ones have export operations to enable export via
knfsd and which ones mostly rely on them for open-by-filehandle support,
so I'm leaving that up to the individual maintainers to decide. I am
cc'ing the relevant lists for those filesystems that I think may want to
consider adding this though.

+Export Operations Flags
+-----------------------
+In addition to the operation vector pointers, struct export_operations also
+contains a "flags" field that allows the filesystem to communicate to nfsd
+that it may want to do things differently when dealing with it. The
+following flags are defined:
+
+ EXPORT_OP_NOWCC - disable NFSv3 WCC attributes on this filesystem
+ RFC 1813 recommends that servers always send weak cache consistency
+ (WCC) data to the client after each operation. The server should
+ atomically collect attributes about the inode, do an operation on it,
+ and then collect the attributes afterward. This allows the client to
+ skip issuing GETATTRs in some situations but means that the server
+ is calling vfs_getattr for almost all RPCs. On some filesystems
+ (particularly those that are clustered or networked) this is expensive
+ and atomicity is difficult to guarantee. This flag indicates to nfsd
+ that it should skip providing WCC attributes to the client in NFSv3
+ replies when doing operations on this filesystem. Consider enabling
+ this on filesystems that have an expensive ->getattr inode operation,
+ or when atomicity between pre and post operation attribute collection
+ is impossible to guarantee.
