    nfs41: add BerkeleyDB-based client record store · aaf7d2fd
    Tigran Mkrtchyan authored
    Motivation:
    To allow clients to reclaim opens/locks lost due-to server reboot nfs
    server should store client records on a stable storage. Such client
    record store can be as simple as text file and as complicated as a
    distributed DB.
    
    Modification:
    Introduce BerkeleyDB-based client record store, which keeps track of
    clients in key-value db. On start client store will use db from previous
    start for a recovery. New clients will be stored in a new DB. After
    recovery is complete the old db will be removed and new one will be used
    and primary.
    
    Result:
    nfs server can be configured to use persistent store to keep track of
    nfs clients.
