Create "export_operations" interface for filesystems to describe whether and how they should be exported. - add new field in struct super_block "s_export_op" to describe how a filesystem is exported (i.e. how filehandles are mapped to dentries). - New module: fs/exportfs for holding helper code for mapping between filehandles and dentries - Change nfsd to use new interface if it exists. - Change ext2 to provide new interface - Add documention to filesystems/Exporting If s_export_op isn't set, old mechanism still works, but it is planned to remove old method and only use s_export_op.
