Hello,
I've updated the Fedora pNFS development repository to include the
Fedora 13, 14 and Devel kernels that have the latest pNFS bits:
Tag: pnfs-all-2.6.35-2010-09-14 for Fedora 13 and 14 kernels
Tag: pnfs-all-latest for Devel/f15 kernels
(Note: there are also kernel-debuginfo and kernel-devel rpms for people who
use things like systemtap probes and crash).
I have not updated the nfs-utils rpms because I'm waiting
for a fix to a problem in rpc.mountd. Once the problem is resolve
I'll update those rpms as well...
Instructions on how to install and use these kernels are at:
http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Fedora_pNFS_Client_Setup
If/when bugs are found with these rpms please enter them
in to the NFS Bugzilla Main Page at:
https://bugzilla.linux-nfs.org/index.cgi
Please use the "pNFS" keyword..
Any question or issues please feel free to contact me...
steved.

I think that's too complicated.
Why not export a well known symbol from the layout driver,
encoding the layout type, to be looked up by the kernel?

One feature I want to do for a long time is to automatically
load the driver from the kernel and eventually add a mount option
to optionally load a layoutdriver on demand, or disable pnfs
for this mount altogether. For example:
pnfs=(auto|none|<layout_driver>|<layout_type>)

Unfortunately yes... I have not figured out a good way to have
the mobprobe done on the client since, in general, init scripts
don't run on the client (with the exception of rpc.statd and rpc.gssd).
I guess I could come up with an pnfs init script..but that
seems like a bit overkill just to do a modprobe...

Hi Steve,
thanks for the builds. What I am missing is modprobe configuration file
which I have to add myself.
thanks,
Tigran.
