We implement our own nfsd in user space - so the kernel nfsd (as well as the lockd) are disabled. We need the handle in order to associate a kernel file handle with our own file id.

Doesn't /proc/fs/nfsd/filehandle do what you want already? See nfs-util/utils/mountd/cache.c:cache_get_filehandle(), or, for the kernel side, linux/fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c:write_filehandle().
