I'll submit this soon. --b. Author: J. Bruce Fields Date: Thu Apr 3 15:10:35 2014 -0400 nfsd: revert v2 half of "nfsd: don't return high mode bits" This reverts the part of commit 6e14b46b91fee8a049b0940333ce13a820beaaa5 that changes NFSv2 behavior. Mark Lord found that it broke nfs-root for Linux clients, because it broke NFSv2. In fact, from RFC 1094: "Notice that the file type is specified both in the mode bits and in the file type. This is really a bug in the protocol and will be fixed in future versions." So NFSv2 clients really are expected to depend on the high bits of the mode.
