We no longer do struct smb_acl_t manipuations via the VFS layer, which is now reduced to handling the get/set functions. The only backend that implemented these functions (aside from audit) was the vfs_default module calling the sys_acl code. The various ACL implementation modules either worked on the fully initilaised smb_acl_t object or on NT ACLs. This not only makes the operation of the posix ACL code more efficient (as allocation and free is not put via the VFS), it makes it easier to test and removes the fantasy that a module could safely redefine this structure or the behaviour here. The smb_acls.idl now defines the structure, and it is now allocated with talloc. These operations were originally added to the VFS in commit 3bb219161a270f12c27c3bc7e1220829c6e9f284. Andrew Bartlett
README for Samba Virtual File System (VFS) Example =================================================== This directory contains skeleton VFS modules. When used, this module simply passes all requests back to the disk functions (i.e it operates as a passthrough filter). It should be useful as a starting point for developing new VFS modules. Please look at skel_opaque.c when you want your module to provide final functions, like a database filesystem. Please look at skel_transparent.c when you want your module to provide passthrough functions, like audit modules. Please read the VFS chapter in the HOWTO collection for general help on the usage of VFS modules. Further documentation on writing VFS modules for Samba can be found in Samba Developers Guide.
