2015-11-149p: xattr simplificationsAndreas Gruenbacher
Now that the xattr handler is passed to the xattr handler operations, we can use the same get and set operations for the user, trusted, and security xattr namespaces. In those namespaces, we can access the full attribute name by "reattaching" the name prefix the vfs has skipped for us. Add a xattr_full_name helper to make this obvious in the code. For the "system.posix_acl_access" and "system.posix_acl_default" attributes, handler->prefix is the full attribute name; the suffix is the empty string.

2013-07-08fs/9p: xattr: add trusted and security namespacesJim Garlick
Allow requests for security.* and trusted.* xattr name spaces to pass through to server. The new files are 99% cut and paste from fs/9p/xattr_user.c with the namespaces changed. It has the intended effect in superficial testing. I do not know much detail about how these namespaces are used, but passing them through to the server, which can decide whether to handle them or not, seems reasonable. I want to support a use case where an ext4 file system is mounted via 9P, then re-exported via samba to windows clients in a cluster. Windows wants to store xattrs such as security.NTACL. This works when ext4 directly backs samba, but not when 9P is inserted. This use case is documented here: http://code.google.com/p/diod/issues/detail?id=95 Signed-off-by: Jim Garlick <garlick@llnl.gov> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
