    Removing UIDGID_STRICT_TYPE_CHECKS simplifies the code and always
    generates a compile error if the uids and kuids or gids and kgids are
    mixed by accident. Now that the appropriate conversions have been
    placed throughout the kernel there is no longer a need for a mode where
    we don't detect them as compile errors.

  • f76d207a6   userns: Add kprojid_t and associated infrastructure in projid.h ... Browse Code »

    Implement kprojid_t a cousin of the kuid_t and kgid_t.

    The per user namespace mapping of project id values can be set with
    /proc//projid_map.

    A full compliment of helpers is provided: make_kprojid, from_kprojid,
    from_kprojid_munged, kporjid_has_mapping, projid_valid, projid_eq,
    projid_eq, projid_lt.

    Project identifiers are part of the generic disk quota interface,
    although it appears only xfs implements project identifiers currently.

    The xfs code allows anyone who has permission to set the project
    identifier on a file to use any project identifier so when
    setting up the user namespace project identifier mappings I do
    not require a capability.
