Good afternoon!
Since which kernel versions (NFS server, NFS client) is NFSv4.2
READ_PLUS safely usable?
Also, could you make this a mount option, so people can turn this
on/off per mount, instead of using a kernel build option for this?

Linux 6.2 for the server side and 6.6 for the client.

The eventual plan is to remove the kernel build option entirely. We
probably won't do a mount option, and just have it enabled by default
when using NFS v4.2.
I hope this helps,

Anna, I'm still planning on either re-sending the patch you wrote to
enable/disable optional features per-mount, or re-work it to make it
file-per-feature as the sysfs creators intended.
We need the option to toggle client's default per-server or per-mount.
