From: Jeff Layton Date: Mon, 12 May 2008 22:23:49 +0000 (+0000) Subject: [CIFS] CIFS currently allows for permissions to be changed on files, even X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc4~89^2~20 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d0a9c078db4769f7305ff9774558776d12bfb25b;p=linux-2.6 [CIFS] CIFS currently allows for permissions to be changed on files, even when unix extensions and cifsacl support are disabled. These permissions changes are "ephemeral" however. They are lost whenever a share is mounted and unmounted, or when memory pressure forces the inode out of the cache. Because of this, we'd like to introduce a behavior change to make CIFS behave more like local DOS/Windows filesystems. When unix extensions and cifsacl support aren't enabled, then don't silently ignore changes to permission bits that can't be reflected on the server. Still, there may be people relying on the current behavior for certain applications. This patch adds a new "dynperm" (and a corresponding "nodynperm") mount option that will be intended to make the client fall back to legacy behavior when setting these modes.
