Here is another update to the richacl patch queue. This posting contains the patches ready to be merged; the patches later in the queue still need some more review. Changes since the last posting (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cifs/11221): * Replacing an existing file or directory requires to be able to delete and recreate it. A new function may_replace was added to test for replace access vs. delete access (may_delete); this simplifies the code and makes it more readable. Without richacls, deleting and creating requires the same permissions, and making that distinction wasn't useful. * The DELETE permission on a file was accidentally allowing to replace the file without also requiring the ADD_FILE permission on the containing directory. This was fixed and a regression test was added to the test suite. * A comment as to how pages for XDR-encoded ACLs are alocated was added to __nfs4_proc_set_acl. (See the complete patch queue for that.)
