Do we really want to return EOPNOTSUPP from listxattr? Seems like simply not listing anything if the server doesn't support ACLs would be the usual behaviour. E.g. on local filesystems we'll also just get back an empty list of xattrs if ACLs aren't supported and not other attribute is set. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
