Hello, here's another update of the richacl patch queue. Changes since the last posting (https://lwn.net/Articles/653459/): * The owner argument of richacl_compute_max_masks() has been removed; the maximum file masks are computed independent of the current file owner; with the previous version, the group mask could have ended up being too restrictive after an owner change. * Function richace_clear_inheritance_flags() has been replaced by the RICHACE_INHERITANCE_FLAGS define. * Definitions common to the kernel and to user space have been moved into uapi header files. * A few other minor fixes and clarifications. In addition, the user-space utilitites now include a man page describing how richacls work: https://github.com/andreas-gruenbacher/richacl/blob/master/man/richacl.7 The complete patch queue is available here: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agruen/linux-richacl.git \ richacl-2015-09-xx Open issues: * nfs: When a user or group name cannot be mapped, nfs's idmapper always maps it to nobody. That's good enough for mapping the file owner and owning group, but not for identifiers in acls. For now, to get the nfs richacl support somewhat working, I'm explicitly checking if mapping has resulted in uid/gid 99 in the kernel. * nfs: When the nfs server replies with NFS4ERR_BADNAME for any user or group name lookup, the client will stop sending numeric uids and gids to the server even when the lookup wasn't numeric. From then on, the client will translate uids and gids that have no mapping to the string "nobody", and the server will reject them. This problem is not specific to acls. * nfsd could implement creating a file without applying a file mode; this would make Automatic Inheritance work as intended. Right now, when no mode is specified, the file permission bits are set to 0. * It would be nice if the MAY_DELETE_SELF flag could override the sticky directory check as it did in the previous version of this patch queue. I couldn't come up with a clean way of achieving that.
