<p>Gnfs is stable enough, we have about ~1000 servers,
4~24 servers for a gluster cluster, about ~2000 nfs

some memleak issue. <br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi All,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As per the discussion on <a href="https://review.gluster.org/23645" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://review.gluster.org/23645</a>,
recently we changed the status of gNFS
(gluster's native NFSv3 support) feature to
'Depricated / Orphan' state. (ref: <a href="https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/master/MAINTAINERS#L185..L189" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/master/MAINTAINERS#L185..L189</a>).
With this email, I am proposing to change
the status again to 'Odd Fixes' (ref: <a href="https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/master/MAINTAINERS#L22" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/master/MAINTAINERS#L22</a>) </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>TL;DR;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>I understand the current maintainers
are not able to focus on maintaining it as
the focus of the project, as earlier
described, is keeping NFS-Ganesha based
integration with glusterfs. But, I am
volunteering along with Xie Changlong
(currently working at Chinamobile), to
keep the feature running as it used to in
previous versions. Hence the status of
'Odd Fixes'. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Before sending the patch to make these
changes, I am proposing it here now, as
gNFS is not even shipped with latest
glusterfs-7.0 releases. I have heard from
some users that it was working great for
them with earlier releases, as all they
wanted was NFS v3 support, and not much of
features from gNFS. Also note that, even
though the packages are not built, none of
the regression tests using gNFS are
stopped with latest master, so it is
working same from at least last 2 years. </div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I request the package maintainers to
please add '--with gnfs' (or --enable-gnfs)
back to their release script through this
email, so those users wanting to use gNFS
happily can continue to use it. Also points
to users/admins is that, the status is 'Odd
Fixes', so don't expect any 'enhancements'
on the features provided by gNFS.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Happy to hear feedback, if any.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regards,</div>
<div>Amar</div>
