Actually, Chuck's patch and Steve's aren't quite the same. Both patches fix the problem that the portmap daemon requires a request to set something to come from a reserved port. In addition to this, Steve's patch reduces the number of reserved ports that the kernel requires. This is the problem that resulted in pmap_create() being incorrectly modified in the first place. Steve's patch correctly puts the support in rpc_getport() where it belongs.

mine does too.  pmap_create() is used for both GET and SET, and i added
a parm to allow pmap_create()'s caller to request a reserved port when
needed.


Hmmm.  That's not the patch that Andrew Morton included in his email to
linux-kernel then.  That patch just removed the line to set xprt->resvport
to 0.  That one fixed problem but not the other.

   Thanx...
