Summary: Ready with nits. The XDR specification appears to be a
superset of the v4.1 XDR specification and combines a correction of the
five remaining discrepancies between v4.1 and v4.0bis ( definition and
use of the NFS4_OTHER_SIZE constant, addition and use of the
ascii_REQUIRED4 type, modification of the typedef of linktext4). The
additions of the 4.2 interface appears to match the specification in
draft-ietf-nfsv4-minorversion2-39 except for two attribute typedef
items mentioned below. One discrepancy would have no operational effect
as the type used in the other draft is an alias for the type used here
but the clone_blksize error changes the size of the type.
I have checked that the extracted code is accepted by rpcgen and
generates files as expected.
Major issues:
None
Minor issues:
None
Nits/editorial comments:
Observation: It might be useful to note that this XDR specification is
fully upwards compatible with the v4.0bis with the minor exception of
the clientaddr4 structure which has been replaced by (strictly, aliased
to) netaddr4 which has the same members with the same purposes but the
names have changed (r_netid -> na_r_netid, r_addr ->na_r_addr). This
effectively fully reconverges the v4.0bis and v4.1 strands of the XDR.
