	In order to support mounts from namespaces other than init_user_ns, fuse must translate uids and gids to/from the userns of the process servicing requests on /dev/fuse. This patch does that, with a couple of restrictions on the namespace: - The userns for the fuse connection is fixed to the namespace from which /dev/fuse is opened. - The namespace must be the same as s_user_ns. These restrictions simplify the implementation by avoiding the need to pass around userns references and by allowing fuse to rely on the checks in setattr_prepare for ownership changes. Either restriction could be relaxed in the future if needed. For cuse the userns used is the opener of /dev/cuse. Semantically the cuse support does not appear safe for unprivileged users. Practically the permissions on /dev/cuse only make it accessible to the global root user. If something slips through the cracks in a user namespace the only users who will be able to use the cuse device are those users mapped into the user namespace. Translation in the posix acl is updated to use the uuser namespace of the filesystem. Avoiding cases which might bypass this translation is handled in a following change. This change is stronlgy based on a similar change from Seth Forshee and Dongsu Park. Cc: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Cc: Dongsu Park <dongsu@kinvolk.io> Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2016-10-01	fuse: Add posix ACL support	Seth Forshee
	Add a new INIT flag, FUSE_POSIX_ACL, for negotiating ACL support with userspace. When it is set in the INIT response, ACL support will be enabled. ACL support also implies "default_permissions". When ACL support is enabled, the kernel will cache and have responsibility for enforcing ACLs. ACL xattrs will be passed to userspace, which is responsible for updating the ACLs in the filesystem, keeping the file mode in sync, and inheritance of default ACLs when new filesystem nodes are created.
