posix: add ACL translation for the GF_POSIX_ACL_*_KEY xattr
Adding support for two virtual extended attributes that are used for
converting a binary POSIX ACL to a POSIX.1e long ACL text format. This
makes it possible to transfer the ACL over the network to a different OS
which can convert the POSIX.1e text format to its native structures.
The following xattrs are sent over RPC in SETXATTR/GETXATTR procedures,
and contain the POSIX.1e long ACL text format:
- glusterfs.posix.acl: maps to ACL_TYPE_ACCESS
- glusterfs.posix.default_acl: maps to ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT
acl_from_text() (from libacl) converts the text format into an acl_t
structure. This structure is then used by acl_set_file() to set the ACL
in the filesystem.
libacl-devel is needed for linking against libacl, so it has been added
to the BuildRequires in the .spec.
NetBSD does not support POSIX ACLs. Trying to get/set POSIX ACLs on a
storage server running NetBSD, an error will be returned with errno set
to ENOTSUP. Faking support, but not enforcing ACLs seems wrong to me.
