No, NFSv4 defines attributes for all of these.

RFC8276 attributes are purely for user-defined attribues, not for
anything that the server or filesystem gives specific meaning.

Client only.

These would probably be quite easy to support on the server side when
the filesystem supports them, but nobody's volunteered to implement
that yet; patches welcome.
