Add a new INIT flag, FUSE_POSIX_ACL, for negotiating ACL support with userspace. When it is set in the INIT response, ACL support will be enabled. ACL support also implies "default_permissions". When ACL support is enabled, the kernel will cache and have responsibility for enforcing ACLs. ACL xattrs will be passed to userspace, which is responsible for updating the ACLs in the filesystem, keeping the file mode in sync, and inheritance of default ACLs when new filesystem nodes are created.

With FUSE it is possible to implement a fully functional filesystem
|
|
in a userspace program.
|
|
|
|
There's also a companion library: libfuse2. This library is available
|
|
from the FUSE homepage:
|
|
<http://fuse.sourceforge.net/>
|
|
although chances are your distribution already has that library
|
|
installed if you've installed the "fuse" package itself.
|
|
|
|
See <file:Documentation/filesystems/fuse.txt> for more information.
|
|
See <file:Documentation/Changes> for needed library/utility version.

If you want to develop a userspace FS, or if you want to use
|
|
a filesystem based on FUSE, answer Y or M.

This FUSE extension allows character devices to be
|
|
implemented in userspace.
|
|
|

If you want to develop or use a userspace character device
|
|
based on CUSE, answer Y or M.
