Name
nfs_svc, async_daemon - NFS daemons
Syntax
nfssvc(sock)
int sock;
asyncdaemon()
PrevPg.ft B
Description
These two system calls allow kernel processes to have a user
context.
nfs_svc starts an NFS daemon listening on socket sock. The
socket (in 4.2BSD terminology) must be AF_INET, and
SOCK_DGRAM (protocol UDP/IP), but this is completely
dependent on the local network transport implementation.
The system call will return only if the process is killed.
async_daemon implements the NFS daemon that handles
asynchronous I/O for an NFS client. The system call never
returns.
