[PATCH v28 03/21] vfs: Add MAY_DELETE_SELF and MAY_DELETE_CHILD permission flags
From: Andreas Gruenbacher
Date: Mon Feb 13 2017 - 10:33:18 EST
Normally, deleting a file requires MAY_WRITE access to the parent
directory. With richacls, a file may be deleted with MAY_DELETE_CHILD access
to the parent directory or with MAY_DELETE_SELF access to the file.
To support that, pass the MAY_DELETE_CHILD mask flag to
inode_permission() when checking for delete access inside a directory,
and MAY_DELETE_SELF when checking for delete access to a file itself.
In case we have MAY_DELETE_SELF access on a file, we still need to
perform non-file-permission related checks (LSM, immutability, etc.).
Use the mask flags (MAY_WRITE | MAY_DELETE_CHILD | MAY_DELETE_SELF) for
that; the combination of MAY_DELETE_CHILD and MAY_DELETE_SELF isn't
otherwise useful.
The MAY_DELETE_SELF permission overrides the sticky directory check.
