mountd: Support junction management plug-ins
To support FedFS and NFS junctions without introducing additional build-time or run-time dependencies on nfs-utils, the community has chosen to use a dynamically loadable library to handle junction resolution. There is one plug-in library for mountd that will handle any NFS- related junction type. Currently there are two types: o nfs-basic locally stored file set location data, and o nfs-fedfs file set location data stored on an LDAP server mountd's support for this library is enabled at build time by the presence of the junction API definition header: /usr/include/nfs-plugin.h If this header is not found on the build system, mountd will build without junction support, and will operate as before. Note that mountd does not cache junction resolution results. NFSD already caches these results in its exports cache. Thus each time NFSD calls up to mountd, it is, in essence, requesting a fresh junction resolution operation, not a cached response.
