NFS: update documentation for the nfs4_unique_id parameter

2022-05-17T19:30:03+00:00

The documentation for nfs4_unique_id is out-of-date. In particular it claim that when nfs4_unique_id is set, the host name is not used. since Commit 55b592933b7d ("NFSv4: Fix nfs4_init_uniform_client_string for net namespaces") both the unique_id AND the host name are used. Update the documentation to match the code. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker

nfsd: remove fault injection code

2020-09-25T22:01:26+00:00

It was an interesting idea but nobody seems to be using it, it's buggy at this point, and nfs4state.c is already complicated enough without it. The new nfsd/clients/ code provides some of the same functionality, and could probably do more if desired. This feature has been deprecated since 9d60d93198c6 ("Deprecate nfsd fault injection").

Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: Documentation/admin-guide

2020-07-05T20:13:00+00:00

Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
