[RFC 12/21] richacl: Permission check algorithm

From: Andreas Gruenbacher
Date: Tue Apr 01 2014 - 08:45:22 EST


A richacl 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.
