From 4ca691a892e8ab4f79583de1394f17a7dcfa2b57 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Layton Date: Thu, 22 May 2008 09:33:34 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] silently ignore ownership changes unless unix extensions are enabled or we're faking uid changes CIFS currently allows you to change the ownership of a file, but unless unix extensions are enabled this change is not passed off to the server. Have CIFS silently ignore ownership changes that can't be persistently stored on the server unless the "setuids" option is explicitly specified. We could return an error here (-EOPNOTSUPP or something), but this is how most disk-based windows filesystems on behave on Linux (e.g. VFAT, NTFS, etc). With cifsacl support and proper Windows to Unix idmapping support, we may be able to do this more properly in the future.
