Client uses static bitmask for GETATTR on CLOSE/WRITE/DELEGRETURN and ignores the fact that it might have some attributes marked invalid in its cache. Compared to v3 where all attributes are retrieved in postop attributes, v4's cache is frequently out of sync and leads to standalone GETATTRs being sent to the server. Instead, in addition to the minimum cache consistency attributes also check cache_validity and adjust the GETATTR request accordingly.

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.
