    resolver.

  • The NFSv4 and NFSv4.1 protocols both allow for the redirection of a client
    from one server to another in order to support filesystem migration and
    replication. For full protocol support, we need to add the ability to
    convert a DNS host name into an IP address that we can feed to the RPC
    client.

    We'll reuse the sunrpc cache, now that it has been converted to work with
    rpc_pipefs.
