That is good news. The Ubuntu Xenial kernel will get the fix for this bug, through the normal stable update process.
Xenial already has the 4.4.21 updates in the -proposed repository. Can you give that kernel a try to see if the fix is in a later kernel, such as .22 or .23? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Triaged ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1604396 Title: Kernel 4.4.0-31 cd into NFS4 directory: Operation not permitted Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux source package in Xenial: Triaged Bug description: Since apt-upgrading my Ubuntu 16.04 PC to kernel 4.4.0-31 I can't cd into NFS4 subvolumes any more: zierke@rzpc100$ uname -a Linux rzpc100 4.4.0-31-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 13 00:07:12 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux zierke@rzpc100$ kinit Password for zie...@informatik.uni-hamburg.de: zierke@rzpc100$ cd /informatik2 zierke@rzpc100$ cd rz -bash: cd: /informatik2/rz: Operation not permitted When I reboot my PC with the previous kernel 4.4.0-28 this works fine.
