NAME

nfs_svc, nfs_biod − Invoke NFS daemons

SYNTAX

int sock;
nfs_svc(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.
