[PATCH v5 0/2] squashfs/squashfs-tools: Add posix acl support

From: Geliang Tang
Date: Fri Jan 25 2019 - 04:15:05 EST


When we use mksquashfs tool to create a squashfs image from the files which
have POSIX ACLs(Access Control Lists), we get these errors:

Unrecognised xattr prefix system.posix_acl_access
Unrecognised xattr prefix system.posix_acl_default

This patcheset adds posix acl support to squashfs to fix this problem. Patch
#1 for kerenl tree and patch #2 for squashfs-tools tree.

Testcase:

$ mkdir root
$ getfacl root
# file: root
# owner: tgl
# group: tgl
user::rwx
group::r-x
other::r-x
$ setfacl -m u:tgl:rw root
$ setfacl -m d:tgl:rw root
$ getfacl root
# file: root
# owner: tgl
# group: tgl
user::rwx
user:tgl:rw-
group::r-x
mask::rwx
other::r-x
default:user::rwx
default:user:tgl:rw-
default:group::r-x
default:mask::rwx
default:other::r-x
$ getfattr -m . -d root
# file: root
system.posix_acl_access=0sAgAAAAEABwD/////AgAGAOgDAAAEAAUA/////xAABwD/////IAAFAP////8=
system.posix_acl_default=0sAgAAAAEABwD/////AgAGAOgDAAAEAAUA/////xAABwD/////IAAFAP////8=

$ mksquashfs root root.img
$ sudo mount root.img /mnt/squash/

$ cd /mnt
$ getfacl squash
# file: squash
# owner: tgl
# group: tgl
user::rwx
user:tgl:rw-
group::r-x
mask::rwx
other::r-x
default:user::rwx
default:user:tgl:rw-
default:group::r-x
default:mask::rwx
default:other::r-x
$ getfattr -m . -d squash
# file: squash
system.posix_acl_access=0sAgAAAAEABwD/////AgAGAOgDAAAEAAUA/////xAABwD/////IAAFAP////8=
system.posix_acl_default=0sAgAAAAEABwD/////AgAGAOgDAAAEAAUA/////xAABwD/////IAAFAP////8=
