Subject: [PATCH v24 09/22] richacl: Compute maximum file masks from an acl
Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2016 16:09:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1469455759-6141-10-git-send-email-agruenba@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1469455759-6141-1-git-send-email-agruenba@redhat.com>

Compute upper bound owner, group, and other file masks with as few
permissions as possible without denying any permissions that the NFSv4
acl in a richacl grants.

This algorithm is used when a file inherits an acl at create time and
when an acl is set via a mechanism that does not provide file masks
(such as setting an acl via nfsd).  When user-space sets an acl via
setxattr, the extended attribute already includes the file masks.

Setting an acl also sets the file mode permission bits: they are
determined by the file masks; see richacl_masks_to_mode().
