Yes, we could move it into common code. I wish we had been able to avoid having
it in the first place since it’s an imperfect conversion, but we have it so…
If we move it into common code, I would appreciate someone throwing a fairly
complete set of ACL tests against it and make sure all bugs are out, or at
least that our conversions match what is done by knfsd.
Is there any requirement for POSIX ACLs for NFS v3? Linux knfsd does have a
sideband protocol for POSIX ACLs for NFS v3 which we COULD implement if there
was demand for it.

Subject: [Nfs-ganesha-devel] [GlusterFS] NFsv4 to POSIX ACL conversion
Hi,
I see that there is NFSv4 ACLs to POSIX ACLs mapping code written in GlusterFS
FSAL. Since, this is pretty standard code and other FSAls may use it instead of
duplicating the same code every time, can we move the ACL conversion code to a
common place in Ganesha? The code is independent of the other GlusterFS code.
Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks,
Sriram
