Description Jiffin 2014-11-14 11:44:34 UTC

Description of problem:

NFS mount via symlinks crosses the volume(boundary of file system) and comes back again to same will fail where as in kernel nfs it works fine. 

For example,
Consider a volume test which contains,
1.)a directory dir
2.)symlink1 points to ../vol/dir
3.)symlink2 points to ../xyz/../vol/dir 

Mount fails for symlink1 and symlink2

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mainline

How reproducible:
always


Actual results:
Mount fails retuning access denied.

Expected results:
Mount should happen

Additional info:
Kernel nfs is resolving mount path correctly
