Title : Support for File System Extended Attributes in NFSv4
Authors : Manoj Naik
Marc Eshel
Filename : draft-ietf-nfsv4-xattrs-00.txt
Pages : 18
Date : 2015-07-31
Abstract:
This document proposes extensions to existing NFSv4 operations to
allow file extended attributes (here forth also referred to as
xattrs) to be manipulated in the protocol. An xattr is a file system
feature that allows opaque metadata, not interpreted by the file
system, to be associated with files and directories and are supported
by many modern file systems. New file attributes are proposed to
allow clients to query the server for xattr support, and new
operations to get and set xattrs on file system objects.
