[PATCH v2] CIFS: display noacl in the mount options

[PATCH v2] CIFS: display noacl in the mount options

[XiaoLi Feng]

From: "fengxiaoli0714@gmai.com" <fengxiaoli0714@gmail.com>

The mount option noacl aren't shown in /proc/mounts
even if they are mounted successfully. And smb2.0+
don't support ACL. Display noacl acquiescently if ACL
is unsupported.

Re: [PATCH v2] CIFS: display noacl in the mount options

[Steve French]

Could this get users confused who mount with "cifsacl" and see "noacl" as well?

Also this is really saying no support for "POSIX (draft standard) ACL
support" not no support for SMB3 ACL (or similarly "RichACL" or NFS
ACL or ... NTFS ACL or ... which are somewhat similar and common).

Could get confusing

Re: [PATCH v2] CIFS: display noacl in the mount options

[Xiaoli Feng]

Yes, could get users confused. But from the Man page:

       noacl  Do not allow POSIX ACL operations even if server would support them.
              The  CIFS  client  can get and set POSIX ACLs (getfacl, setfacl) to Samba servers version 3.0.10 and later. Setting POSIX ACLs requires enabling both CIFS_XATTR and then    CIFS_POSIX support in the CIFS configuration options when building the cifs module. POSIX ACL support can be disabled on a per mount basis by specifying noacl on mount.

       cifsacl
              This option is used to map CIFS/NTFS ACLs to/from Linux permission bits, map SIDs to/from UIDs and GIDs, and get and set Security Descriptors.
              See section on CIFS/NTFS ACL, SID/UID/GID MAPPING, SECURITY DESCRIPTORS for more information.

These two options are for different ACL. There is still a option "acl". It also can be mounted with cifsacl together for SMB1.0. 
There are some errors in my commit log. Should say "smb2.0+ don't support POSIX ACL". What do you think about this patch? It also
makes sense if doesn't display "noacl".

Re: [PATCH v2] CIFS: display noacl in the mount options

[Xiaoli Feng]

Maybe we should change the option "acl|noacl" to "posixacl|noposixacl".

That could be better although I lean toward waiting until we
experiment a little more with the SMB3.1.1 POSIX Extensions and any
additional mount options for them.
