Some simple testing and code review suggests that this works as
expected. However it is possible that I am expecting something
different to you, or testing something different.
You say you:
exportfs -u :/tv01
What exactly is in your /etc/exports that this is expected to revert?
The obvious answer would be
/tv01 (some,flags,here)
however "exportfs" will complain about that, so I suspect not.
Maybe you have:
/tv01 somehost(someflags) otherhost(otherflags)
and you expect
exportfs -u :/tv01
to unexport /tv01 to all hosts? I would agree that doesn't work. Did
it ever? What version?
As an aside, you can always:
exportfs -f
and then unmount filesystems. They will be free to be unmounted until
the next NFS access request arrives. Maybe that will server your
needs?
