  To: qemu-devel; +Cc: aliguori, Aneesh Kumar K.V

From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This enable us to do passthrough equivalent security model on NFS directory.
NFS server mostly do root squashing and don't support xattr. Hence we cannot
use 'passthrough' or 'mapped' security model

Also added "mapped-xattr" security to indicate earlier "mapped" security model
Older name is still supported.

POSIX rules regarding ctime update on chmod are not followed by this security model.

Out of interest, did you do any performance comparison with mapped-xattr?

Lacking an implementation of fstat seems like a pretty major omission
that isn't mentioned in the commit message.

No, I was mostly looking at making virtFS usable on an NFS setup

If you look at where local_fstat get used currently, We do it only for
lock call, that too to check whether the file is present. We are not
using the stat value returned. So the patchset should be usable as it
is. What i am contemplating is should i add additional code in server
that fallback to path based stat if fs driver callback returned
EOPNOTSUPP error. May be i should do that in the next version.
