	<title>DESCRIPTION</title>

	<para>This VFS module is part of the
	<citerefentry><refentrytitle>samba</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>

	<para>The <command>zfsacl</command> VFS module is the home
	for all ACL extensions that Samba requires for proper integration
	with ZFS.
	</para>

	<para>Currently the zfsacl vfs module provides extensions in following areas :
	<itemizedlist>
	<listitem><para>NFSv4 ACL Interfaces with configurable options for ZFS</para></listitem>
	</itemizedlist>
	</para>

	<para><command>NOTE:</command>This module follows the posix-acl behaviour
	and hence allows permission stealing via chown. Samba might allow at a later
	point in time, to restrict the chown via this module as such restrictions
	are the responsibility of the underlying filesystem than of Samba.
	</para>

	<para>This module makes use of the smb.conf parameter
	<smbconfoption name="acl map full control">acl map full control</smbconfoption>
	When set to yes (the default), this parameter will add in the FILE_DELETE_CHILD
	bit on a returned ACE entry for a file (not a directory) that already
	contains all file permissions except for FILE_DELETE and FILE_DELETE_CHILD.
	This can prevent Windows applications that request GENERIC_ALL access
	from getting ACCESS_DENIED errors when running against a filesystem
	with NFSv4 compatible ACLs.
	</para>

	<para>This module is stackable.</para>

	<para>Since Samba 4.0 all options are per share options.</para>

	<title>OPTIONS</title>

	<variablelist>

		<varlistentry>

		<term>nfs4:mode = [ simple | special ]</term>
		<listitem>
		<para>
		Controls substitution of special IDs (OWNER@ and GROUP@) on ZFS.
                The use of mode simple is recommended.
                In this mode only non inheriting ACL entries for the file owner
                and group are mapped to special IDs.
		</para>

		<para>The following MODEs are understood by the module:</para>
		<itemizedlist>
		<listitem><para><command>simple(default)</command> - use OWNER@ and GROUP@ special IDs for non inheriting ACEs only.</para></listitem>
		<listitem><para><command>special(deprecated)</command> - use OWNER@ and GROUP@ special IDs in ACEs for all file owner and group ACEs.</para></listitem>
		</itemizedlist>
		</listitem>

		</varlistentry>


		<varlistentry>
		<term>nfs4:acedup = [dontcare|reject|ignore|merge]</term>
		<listitem>
		<para>
		This parameter configures how Samba handles duplicate ACEs encountered in ZFS ACLs.
		ZFS allows/creates duplicate ACE for different bits for same ID.
		</para>

		<para>Following is the behaviour of Samba for different values :</para>
		<itemizedlist>
		<listitem><para><command>dontcare (default)</command> - copy the ACEs as they come</para></listitem>
		<listitem><para><command>reject</command> - stop operation and exit with error on ACL set op</para></listitem>
		<listitem><para><command>ignore</command> - don't include the second matching ACE</para></listitem>
		<listitem><para><command>merge</command> - bitwise OR the 2 ace.flag fields and 2 ace.mask fields of the 2 duplicate ACEs into 1 ACE</para></listitem>
		</itemizedlist>
		</listitem>
		</varlistentry>


		<varlistentry>
		<term>nfs4:chown = [yes|no]</term>
		<listitem>
		<para>This parameter allows enabling or disabling the chown supported
		by the underlying filesystem. This parameter should be enabled with
		care as it might leave your system insecure.</para>
		<para>Some filesystems allow chown as a) giving b) stealing. It is the latter
		that is considered a risk.</para>

		<para>Following is the behaviour of Samba for different values : </para>
		<itemizedlist>
		<listitem><para><command>yes</command> - Enable chown if as supported by the under filesystem</para></listitem>
		<listitem><para><command>no (default)</command> - Disable chown</para></listitem>
		</itemizedlist>
		</listitem>
		</varlistentry>
