Subject: Transferring birth-time time stamp over NFS

Greetings list,

I have just figured that NFS since version 4.2 is capable of transferring mandatory access lists (i.e. SELinux labels) and hoped it would be also able to transfer birth time (as of the statx() kernel interface) as an addition to the standard POSIX atime,mtime and ctime.
Unfortunately it does not seem to work (tried with Fedora 35).

Hence my question, is such a feature considered to be implemented at some stage?
Thanks,
Ondrej
