nfs_svc(2nfs)
Name
nfs_svc, nfs_biod − invoke NFS daemons
Syntax
nfs_svc(sock)
int sock;
nfs_biod()
Description
The nfs_svc system call starts an NFS daemon listening on the socket referenced by the file descriptor sock. The socket must be an AF_INET address format, and a SOCK_DGRAM socket type (protocol UDP/IP). This system call is used by nfsd.
If the process is killed, the system call returns the diagnostic EINTR.
The nfs_biod implements the NFS daemon that handles asynchronous I/O for an NFS client. This system call is used by biod. Unlike nfs_svc, this system call does not return any diagnostics if the process is killed.
Diagnostics
[EINTR] The NFS daemon, nfs_svc, process was killed.
