Description iv0co 2011-10-10 10:53:08 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.5) 
OS:                Linux

Recently, an effort has been underway to create a library for accessing nfs shares (with 3 different interfaces I believe: raw access, sync and async).
https://github.com/sahlberg/libnfs

The idea is to have all applications needing nfs access to use this so no duplicate work is required. Is it possible to port the nfs kioslave to use libnfs ? The advantage would be: aside from much less code to maintain, it will also (hopefully will be) more stable.

E.g., as far as I know,
- kioslave uses readdirplus to get directory listing (not supported by unfs)
- doesn't implement "muliple fragements" support

These 2 examples, don't allow me to use the nfs kioslave with my nfs share.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
try to connect to an userspace nfs share (unfs)

Actual Results:  
RPC error (multiple fragments and readdirplus not supported)

Expected Results:  
proper nfs access in, e.g., dolphin

Is this still relevant or applicable with KDE Frameworks 5.45?
