    NFSv4: Change the default setting of the nfs4_disable_idmapping parameter · 074b1d12
    Trond Myklebust 提交于
    Now that the use of numeric uids/gids is officially sanctioned in
    RFC3530bis, it is time to change the default here to 'enabled'.
    
    By doing so, we ensure that NFSv4 copies the behaviour of NFSv3 when we're
    using the default AUTH_SYS authentication (i.e. when the client uses the
    numeric uids/gids as authentication tokens), so that when new files are
    created, they will appear to have the correct user/group.
    It also fixes a number of backward compatibility issues when migrating
    from NFSv3 to NFSv4 on a platform where the server uses different uid/gid
    mappings than the client.
    
    Note also that this setting has been successfully tested against servers
    that do not support numeric uids/gids at several Connectathon/Bakeathon
    events at this point, and the fall back to using string names/groups has
    been shown to work well in all those test cases.
