When a directory contains 17 files (except . and ..), nfs client sends
a redundant readdir request after get eof.
A simple reproduce,
At NFS server, create a directory with 17 files under exported directory.
# mkdir test
# cd test
# for i in {0..16} ; do touch $i; done
At NFS client, no matter mounting through nfsv3 or nfsv4,
does ls (or ll) at the created test directory.
A tshark output likes following (for nfsv4),
# tshark -i eth0 tcp port 2049 -Tfields -e ip.src -e ip.dst -e nfs -e nfs.cookie4

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 Restructured Text 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.
