This document describes an optional feature extending the NFSv4
protocol. This feature allows extended attributes (hereinafter also
referred to as xattrs) to be interrogated and manipulated using NFSv4
clients. Xattrs are provided by a file system to associate opaque
metadata, not interpreted by the file system, with files and
directories. Such support is present in many modern local file
systems. New file attributes are provided to allow clients to query
the server for xattr support, with that support consisting of new
operations to get and set xattrs on file system objects.
This document is a product of the Network File System Version 4 Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
