Linus Torvalds 8b16da681e NFSD 6.7 Release Notes
This release completes the SunRPC thread scheduler work that was
 begun in v6.6. The scheduler can now find an svc thread to wake in
 constant time and without a list walk. Thanks again to Neil Brown
 for this overhaul.
 
 Lorenzo Bianconi contributed infrastructure for a netlink-based
 NFSD control plane. The long-term plan is to provide the same
 functionality as found in /proc/fs/nfsd, plus some interesting
 additions, and then migrate the NFSD user space utilities to
 netlink.
 
 A long series to overhaul NFSD's NFSv4 operation encoding was
 applied in this release. The goals are to bring this family of
 encoding functions in line with the matching NFSv4 decoding
 functions and with the NFSv2 and NFSv3 XDR functions, preparing
 the way for better memory safety and maintainability.
 
 A further improvement to NFSD's write delegation support was
 contributed by Dai Ngo. This adds a CB_GETATTR callback,
 enabling the server to retrieve cached size and mtime data from
 clients holding write delegations. If the server can retrieve
 this information, it does not have to recall the delegation in
 some cases.
 
 The usual panoply of bug fixes and minor improvements round out
 this release. As always I am grateful to all contributors,
 reviewers, and testers.
