The MOUNT options are opposite.
Linux NFS mount - defualts to no-intr Solaris NFS mount - default to intr Doug McNaught wrote:
Doug Royer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:From the Linux 'nfs' man page: intr If an NFS file operation has a major timeout and it is hard mounted, then allow signals to interupt the file operation and cause it to return EINTR to the calling program. The default is to not allow file operations to be interrupted. Solaris 'mount_nfs' man page intr | nointr Allow (do not allow) keyboard interrupts to kill a process that is hung while waiting for a response on a hard-mounted file system. The default is intr, which makes it possible for clients to interrupt applications that may be waiting for a remote mount. The Solaris and Linux defaults seem to be the opposite of each other.Actually they're the same, though differently worded. "Major timeout" means the server has not responded for N milliseconds, not that the client has decided to time out the request. If 'hard' is set, the client will keep trying indefinitely, though you can interrupt it if you've specified 'intr'.So I think we are saying the same thing. You can get EINTR with hard+intr mounts.Yes, *only* if the user specifically decides to send a signal, or if it uses SIGALRM or whatever. I agree that if you expect 'intr' to be used, your code needs to handle EINTR.I am not sure what you get with soft mounts on a timeout.The Linux manpage implies you get EIO. -Doug ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
