Linux 6.10 NFSD Brings Optimizations & Preps For New nfsdctl Utility


The Linux Network File System (NFS) server code (NFSD) is seeing a new Netlink protocol introduced in Linux 6.10 as part of laying the groundwork for the new 'nfsdctl' utility.

The nfsdctl utility was inspired by the likes of NetworkManager's nmcli and libvirt's virsh. The nfsdctl utility has been concurrently getting into shape for the nfs-utils package integration. In addition to the new NFSD Netlink protocol, the Linux 6.10 pull request also brings optimizations, code clean-ups, and fixes.
