RFC 7862 states that if an NFS server implements a CLONE operation, it MUST also implement FATTR4_CLONE_BLKSIZE. NFSD implements CLONE, but does not implement FATTR4_CLONE_BLKSIZE. Note that in Section 12.2, RFC 7862 claims that FATTR4_CLONE_BLKSIZE is RECOMMENDED, not REQUIRED. Likely this is because a minor version is not permitted to add a REQUIRED attribute. Confusing. We assume this attribute reports a block size as a count of bytes, as RFC 7862 does not specify a unit.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
