Having vanquished (for the most part) dynamic export update, and the ease of
doing so, I have started to think about what other config parameters would
be useful to be able to dynamically update.

Please read over this and give feedback.

Thanks

NFS_CORE_PARAM:

All the ports and such probably aren't a good idea to dynamically update.

Nb_Worker would certainly be useful to be able to change.

Drop_.*_Errors, should be easy to update, someone might want that.

DRC options are probably not good to tweak dynamically?

RPC options are probably not good to tweak dynamically?

NFS_IP_NAME

Changing the expiration time probably is ok to change.

NFS_KRB5

I don't think any of these are candidates for dynamic update.

NFSV4

Changing any of these options will probably wreak havoc, though playing with
the numeric owners options dynamically is probably not too horrid.

EXPORT { FSAL { } }

I didn't explore any of these with dynamic export update. FSAL_VFS allows
configuring the type of fsid used for the filesystem, changing that
dynamically is a bad idea since it changes the format of file handles.

CACHE_INODE

Most of these should be updateable. NPart would not be changeable. I'm not
sure if any others would be problematical. I wonder if some of them are no
longer used.

9P

These don't look like good candidates for dynamic update.

CEPH

Changing the config path for libcephfs won't accomplish anything

GPFS

I'm not sure some of these should even be config variables, not sure if any
make sense for dynamic update

RGW

These need consideration, probably not candidates for dynamic update

VFS/XFS

Some of the same questionable options as GPFS

ZFS

Same options as VFS/XFS

PROXY

Not worth making dynamically updateable until we really make this thing
work...
