Hi,

I'm probably barking up the wrong tree, but I was wondering if there were any issues that would prevent Ted's ext ACLs from co-existing with XFS's ACLs. My base kernel is 2.5.43 checked out from the XFS cvs tree as of this afternoon. Ted's patches went in pretty cleanly [required cleaning the fs/config.{help|in} for dupes] except for one part in include/linux/fs.h:

He has assigned the bitvector (1<<16) to the macro MS_POSIXACL whereas you have assigned an explicit value. Will it cause problems for XFS's ACLs if I replace the explicit value with the bitvector? Or is this just 32bit vs 64bit stuff I need not worry about (since I'm on ia32)?

Cheers,
Nicholas
