[PATCH v2 06/25] capability: provide helpers for converting between xattrs and vfs_caps

Wed Feb 21 21:24:37 UTC 2024


To pass around vfs_caps instead of raw xattr data we will need to
convert between the two representations near userspace and disk
boundaries. We already convert xattrs from disks to vfs_caps, so move
that code into a helper, and change get_vfs_caps_from_disk() to use the
helper.

When converting vfs_caps to xattrs we have different considerations
depending on the destination of the xattr data. For xattrs which will be
written to disk we need to reject the xattr if the rootid does not map
into the filesystem's user namespace, whereas xattrs read by userspace
may need to undergo a conversion from v3 to v2 format when the rootid
does not map. So this helper is split into an internal and an external
interface. The internal interface does not return an error if the rootid
has no mapping in the target user namespace and will be used for
conversions targeting userspace. The external interface returns
EOVERFLOW if the rootid has no mapping and will be used for all other
conversions.
