[PATCH review 07/12] vfs: Don't create inodes with a uid or gid unknown to the vfs

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

 



It is expected that filesystems can not represent uids and gids from
outside of their user namespace.  Keep things simple by not even
trying to create filesystem nodes with non-sense uids and gids.
