Hi, Tom.
Excellent... so I think we are done with dot-x.
One additional point that I was going to write into the main
minorversion2 review relating to referencing the requirements RFC
7204. rpcsec-gssv3 also references the requirements RFC but the amount
of info that is needful to support implementers seems to be mostly in
minorversion2. Would it be possible for you and Andy to work out if
anything extra is really needed in minorversio2 (about guest mode
primarily I think) so that the requirements reference is not needed and
rpcsec-gssv3 can just reference minorversion2 for all info on the
modes? I wasn't sure what, if anything, extra was needed in minorversion2.
Cheers,
Elwyn

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.

Hi Elwyn,
Thanks for the review - sorry for the delay in responding, I’m just now
surfacing from my job. :-)
Responses inline.
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which has been replaced by (strictly, aliased to) netaddr4 which has the same members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.
Shamelessly stolen almost verbatim!
Line 1145: In draft-ietf-nfsv4-minorversion2-39 we have typedef length4
fattr4_space_freed
whereas in this draft we have
typedef uint64_t fattr4_space_freed
Fixed this in the XDR document.
Line 1149: In draft-ietf-nfsv4-minorversion2-39 we have typedef length4
fattr4_clone_blksize
whereas in this draft we have
typedef uint32_t fattr4_clone_blksize
And for this one, I made the change to uint32_t in
draft-ietf-nfsv4-minorversion2-39 .
Thanks again!
Tom
