Re: Group-based permissions issue when using ACLs on CephFS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here's what I'm seeing using basic owner/group permissions. Both
directories are mounted on my NFS client with the same options. Only
difference is underneath, from the NFS server, 'aclsupport' is mounted
via ceph-fuse with fuse_default_permissions=0 (acls enabled), and
'noaclsupport' is mounted via ceph-fuse with
fuse_default_permissions=1.

'user2' is part of 'group1' and should have r/w access to 'dir', but
does not when trying to access the filesystem mounted with ACL
support.

[user2@test01 ]$ groups
user2 group1

[user2@test01 ]$ stat -c "%i" /mnt/cephfs/aclsupport/dir/
1099511790134
[user2@test01 ]$ stat -c "%i" /mnt/cephfs/noaclsupport/dir/
1099511790134

[user2@test01 ]$ ls -lh /mnt/cephfs/aclsupport
total 1.5K
drwxrws--- 1 user1   group1  0 Mar 22 15:32 dir

[user2@test01 ]$ ls /mnt/cephfs/aclsupport/dir/
ls: reading directory /mnt/cephfs/aclsupport/dir/: Permission denied

[user2@test01 ]$ ls /mnt/cephfs/noaclsupport/dir/
foo
