This is the Linux NFS developer's mailing list, but your question is about how to look up something in the specifications. That's probably more appropriate for the IETF mailing list, but you shouldn't even have to ask anyone. Instead, look it up in the spec. Aren't you folks working on an implementation, and shouldn't you be up to your ears in the spec? Isn't it easier to just look instead of waiting on other people to do it for you? The answer is eia_client_impl_id, in rfc-8881. Questions like this are annoying me, and you risk losing visibility from folks that might also be annoyed. https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/nfsv4/documents/ Ben
