The IESG has approved the following document: - 'NFS Direct Data Placement ' <draft-ietf-nfsv4-nfsdirect-08.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Network File System Version 4 Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Lars Eggert and Magnus Westerlund. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nfsv4-nfsdirect-08.txt Technical Summary This document specifies a method of binding NFS on top of the ONC RPC operation over RDMA transports (such as RDDP). The RDMA transport for ONC RPC provides direct data placement for NFS data. Direct data placement not only reduces the amount of data that needs to be copied in an NFS call, but allows much of the data movement over the network to be implemented in RDMA hardware. This protocol describes the use of direct data placement by means of server- initiated RDMA operations into client-supplied buffers in a Chunk list for implementations of NFS versions 2, 3, and 4 over an RDMA transport. Working Group Summary There is consensus in the WG to publish these documents. Protocol Quality In support of this protocol definition, a variety of prototyping efforts have occurred in both Linux and OpenSolaris operating environments. At this point, there exist interoperable NFS client and server implementations for both Linux and OpenSolaris.
