GANESHA-9P-CONFIG(8)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Bestie, meet ganesha-9p-config — aka the NFS Ganesha 9p Configuration File. That's the vibe. It's manual page GANESHA-9P-CONFIG(8) and it's here to tell you about one very specific little config file. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

/etc/ganesha/ganesha.conf

Yeah that's it. That's the file. One path, zero drama. 💅

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So, NFS-Ganesha gets all its config tea from one place, and that place is the configuration file:

/etc/ganesha/ganesha.conf

And this page? It specifically lists the 9p specific config options that live in there. Not the whole file, just the 9p ones. iykyk. 🎀

---

🧚 _9P {} — the block that runs the show

Everything below goes inside the _9P {} section. Let's go down the list, one by one, no skips, no skimming. 👑

• Nb_Worker — uint32, range 1 to 1024*128, default 256. Bestie this one is literally the number of worker threads. 💪
• _9P_TCP_Port — uint16, range 1 to UINT16_MAX, default 564. 🌈
• _9P_RDMA_Port — uint16, range 1 to UINT16_MAX, default 5640. ✨
• _9P_TCP_Msize — uint32, range 1024 to UINT32_MAX, default 65536. 🍓
• _9P_RDMA_Msize — uint32, range 1024 to UINT32_MAX, default 1048576. 🦋
• _9P_RDMA_Backlog — uint16, range 1 to UINT16_MAX, default 10. 🌸
• _9P_RDMA_Inpool_size — uint16, range 1 to UINT16_MAX, default 64. (Yes the casing is like that. Not me. That's canon. 🙈)
• _9P_RDMA_Outpool_Size — uint16, range 1 to UINT16_MAX, default 32. 💜

Fr fr, for the ones with no description, the manpage just hands you the type, the range and the default and trusts you to handle it. Lowkey iconic behaviour. 😭
