[PATCH] NFS: Use kernel DNS resolver

From: David Howells
Date: Fri Aug 06 2010 - 17:01:53 EST


From: Bryan Schumaker <bjschuma@xxxxxxxxxx>

Use the kernel DNS resolver to translate hostnames to IP addresses. Create a
new config option to choose between the legacy DNS resolver and the new
resolver.
