Hi, The following set of patches implements VFS and ext4 changes needed to implement a new acl model for linux. Rich ACLs are an implementation of NFSv4 ACLs, extended by file masks to fit into the standard POSIX file permission model. They are designed to work seamlessly locally as well as across the NFSv4 and CIFS/SMB2 network file system protocols. A user-space utility for displaying and changing richacls is available at [4] (a number of examples can be found at http://acl.bestbits.at/richacl/examples.html). [4] git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/acl/kvaneesh/richacl.git master To test richacl on ext4 use -o richacl mount option. This mount option may later be dropped in favour of a feature flag. More details regarding richacl can be found at http://acl.bestbits.at/richacl/ Changes from v5: a) rebase to v3.1-rc4-131-g9e79e3e NOTE: The kernel changes will be pushed to git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvaneesh/linux-richacl.git richacl when kernel.org is back -aneesh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
