Re: [PATCH v7 1/7] VFS: Introduce new O_DENY* open flags

Have you prepared C library patches to match this ?

(and why not just use EPERM, it has the meaning you want already)

Shouldn't this also check for CAP_SYS_DAC or some similar permission so
that root can override such a mess (eg to fix full disks in an
emergency) ?

What stops the file system changing mount flags via a remount between
these two ?
