Re-enable CONFIG_NFS_V4_2_READ_PLUS in master
Last modified: 2023-11-01 09:01:57 UTC
Created attachment 870533 [details] patch against kernel-source commit 2d6110a1547f CONFIG_NFS_V4_2_READ_PLUS config option was unselected by commit ff9060bd2d19 ("Update to 5.10 final"). This is understandable given the observed failures with xfstests mentioned in mainline commit 21e31401fc45 ("NFS: Disable READ_PLUS by default"). However, it seems that all issues have been worked out, see mainline commit 9cf2744d2491 ("NFS: Enable the READ_PLUS operation by default"). I suggest we re-enable CONFIG_NFS_V4_2_READ_PLUS in master now. It allows to transfer sparse files more efficiently.

I'll queue this up in my for-next after going through the before / after xfstests results. I'm assuming Author: Petr Tesarik <petr@tesarici.$country_code_tld> - let me know if you'd prefer a different email address.

Looks sensible to me - thanks.
CONFIG_NFS_V4_2_READ_PLUS is has been enabled in both master and stable. Thanks to everyone, closing.
