[RFC v4 10/31] richacl: Permission check algorithm

From: Andreas Gruenbacher
Date: Wed Jun 24 2015 - 17:58:19 EST


A richacl roughly grants a requested access if the NFSv4 acl in the richacl
grants the requested permissions according to the NFSv4 permission check
algorithm and the file mask that applies to the process includes the requested
permissions.
