Rick Macklem 53b4ae3bf0 nfs_diskless: Fix handling of nfsuserd case for NFSv4
Commit 8b9775912c added support for an NFSv4 mounted
root file system, but only if the NFSv4 configuration
used id numbers in the strings.

This patch adds support for the case where the NFSv4
configuration uses name<-->id mappings via nfsuserd(8)
by priming the mapping cache with just enough entries
so that it works until the nfsuserd(8) is running.
They are listed in nfs_prime_userd[] in
sys/fs/nfs/nfs_commonsubs.c.

The entries in nfs_prime_userd[] are also wired into
the kernel's cache for name<-->id mappings when nfsuserd(8)
starts up.  This is necessary, since an upcall to the
nfsuserd(8) daemon for a mapping when looking up the
path to the passwd/group database files (/etc) will
hang the system, due to a vnode lock being held on
the entry in the path which blocks nfsuserd(8) from
accessing files.

To enable this case, the following must be put in the
NFS root file system's /boot/loader.conf:
boot.nfsroot.options="nfsv4"
boot.nfsroot.user_domain="<user.domain>"
where <user.domain> must be the same as nfsuserd
uses (usually set via the -domain flag).
If boot.nfsroot.user_domain does not exist or is
the empty string, ids is strings is configured.

FreeBSD Kernel Source:

This directory contains the source files and build glue that make up the FreeBSD kernel and its modules, including both original and contributed software.

Kernel configuration files are located in the conf/ subdirectory of each architecture. GENERIC is the configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains documentation of all possible entries. LINT is a compile-only configuration used to maximize build coverage and detect regressions.

Documentation:

Source code documentation is maintained in a set of man pages, under section 9. These pages are located in share/man/man9, from the top-level of the src tree. Consult intro(9) for an overview of existing pages.

Some additional high-level documentation of the kernel is maintained in the Architecture Handbook.
