H A D | namei.c | 5909ccaa Fri Aug 28 13:51:25 CDT 2009 Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Make 'check_acl()' a first-class filesystem op
This is stage one in flattening out the callchains for the common permission testing. Rather than have most filesystem implement their own inode->i_op->permission function that just calls back down to the VFS layers 'generic_permission()' with the per-filesystem ACL checking function, the filesystem can just expose its 'check_acl' function directly, and let the VFS layer do everything for it.
This is all just preparatory - no filesystem actually enables this yet.
