    [PATCH] knfsd: lockd: introduce nsm_handle · 8dead0db
    Olaf Kirch authored
    This patch introduces the nsm_handle, which is shared by all nlm_host objects
    referring to the same client.
    
    With this patch applied, all nlm_hosts from the same address will share the
    same nsm_handle.  A future patch will add sharing by name.
    
    Note: this patch changes h_name so that it is no longer guaranteed to be an IP
    address of the host.  When the host represents an NFS server, h_name will be
    the name passed in the mount call.  When the host represents a client, h_name
    will be the name presented in the lock request received from the client.  A
    h_name is only used for printing informational messages, this change should
    not be significant.
