[Gluster-devel] Ability to turn off 'glusterfs' protocol

[Deepak Shetty]

Hi All,
  I had opened this feature request sometime back
http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Features/turn-off-glusterfs-proto-access

I wanted to know what would be the right way to implement this ?

The goal here is to have a volume set option to turn off glusterfs/fuse
protocol access
just like how we have it today for NFS ( volume set nfs.export-volumes off)

1) Does GETSPEC allow passing the protocol being requested at mount, so
that glusterd can return success/failure and mount.gluster can error
accoridngly ?

2) Another way is to introduce another handshake after GETSPEC is
successfull, where client can request permission to mount using the said
protocol and glusterd returns success/failure based on the volume set
option being set or unset ?

Thoughts ?

thanx,
deepak
