Posix ACL Support
This change adds support for Posix ACLs by storing them as an xattr which is common practice for many Linux file systems. Since the Posix ACL is stored as an xattr it will not overwrite any existing ZFS/NFSv4 ACLs which may have been set. The Posix ACL will also be non-functional on other platforms although it may be visible as an xattr if that platform understands SA based xattrs. By default Posix ACLs are disabled but they may be enabled with the new 'aclmode=noacl|posixacl' property. Set the property to 'posixacl' to enable them. If ZFS/NFSv4 ACL support is ever added an appropriate acltype will be added. This change passes the POSIX Test Suite cleanly with the exception of xacl/00.t test 45 which is incorrect for Linux (Ext4 fails too). http://www.tuxera.com/community/posix-test-suite/ Signed-off-by: Massimo Maggi <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Richard Yao <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #170
