Dear genteel users,
Recently I'm trying to run Open Genera on Gentoo, which requires the
old
NFS v2 protocol for communication.
I successfully run it on a Ubuntu 16.04 virtual machine, which
enables it
by default.
In 5.18.12 it seems deprecated and not supported, am I supposed to
revert
back to a kernel version before its removal, or manually patch it
into the
current kernel ? Or there might be some more elegant methods ?
It will be much appreciated if anyone could help :)

Looking at the config for 5.18.14, I see no evidence V2 has been
deprecated. However, your kernel may well have been configured to not
use V2. Note the kernel has different client and server settings for
this. Most likely, you just need to reconfigure and recompile your
kernel.
Also, I don't see any genera available in portage. If it is in an
overlay, I would check for any documentation in the overlay about
necessary kernel configuration.

Dear Jack,
thanks for your reply, I reconfigured menuconfig.
NFS v2 support I found is client support, and I can't still find v2
support
for server ( sorry for not mentioning it in my ambiguous question )
I also looked up in forum and wiki, and recent posts seem to indicate
the removal of nfs v2 server support.
I followed this link for open genera
( https://archives.loomcom.com/genera/genera-install.html )
not in portage or an overlay.
Best regards :)

I am aware that NFSv2 is likely to be deprecated due to security
concerns, but it hasn't happened yet in the Linux kernel.
The entry (5.18.14) for "NFS server support (NFSD)" or CONFIG_NFSD: says
-----
Choose Y here if you want to allow other computers to access files
residing on this system using Sun's Network File System protocol. To
compile the NFS server support as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called nfsd.
You may choose to use a user-space NFS server instead, in which case
you can choose N here.
To export local file systems using NFS, you also need to install user
space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils package,
available from http://linux-nfs.org/. More detail about the Linux NFS
server implementation is available via the exports(5) man page.
Below you can choose which versions of the NFS protocol are available
to clients mounting the NFS server on this system. Support for NFS
version 2 (RFC 1094) is always available when CONFIG_NFSD is selected.
-----
In addition, from just a very brief search, it is likely that there are
other configuration files you may need to alter in order for the nfs
server to actually respond to V2 requests. This is likely how some distributions have blocked V2 from the default configuration. Google
is your friend.

Sorry for the late reply,
I found this commit <https://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=steved/nfs-utils.git;a=commit;h=2c2c36c59fa1de2ff7fd28917e54700ecb39b730>
of last November, which might be the reason.
2.5.4 might be the last version with such support.
I emerged manually changed ebuild and $( rpcinfo -p localhost |
grep nfs
)
explicitly indicates the version 2 of nfs, which runs successfully.
Thanks again for your dedicated and detailed reply,
and also the bottom-posting reminder.
Best regards :)
