Hi Andi,
I've already got a patch to accomplish most of this in
http://www.fys.uio.no/~trondmy/src/2.4.21/linux-2.4.21-11-fix_tcprace3.dif
It's a backport of some patches that have already gone into 2.5.x to fix some TCP client reconnection issues. I was hoping to push these patches to Marcelo for 2.4.22.
Could you therefore please just send me a patch for the NFS_MOUNT_NONRESERVED mount option alone. Then I'll append it to this patch series?
This should also make it easy to port the whole thing forward to 2.5.x (although please note that for 2.5.x I'm also planning some other improvements that will allow us to share the struct xprt between different RPC clients).
