The generic XDR encoders return a length or a negative errno. NFSv4 encoders want to know simply whether the encode ran out of stream buffer space. The return values for server-side encoding are either nfs_ok or nfserr_resource. So far I've found it adds a lot of duplicate code to try to use the generic XDR encoder utilities when encoding the simple data types in the NFSv4 operation encoders. Add a set of NFSv4-specific utilities that handle the basic XDR data types. These are added in xdr4.h so they might eventually be used by the callback server and pNFS driver encoders too.

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.
