    cifs: add separate cred_uid field to sesInfo · 3e4b3e1f
    Jeff Layton 提交于
    Right now, there's no clear separation between the uid that owns the
    credentials used to do the mount and the overriding owner of the files
    on that mount.
    
    Add a separate cred_uid field that is set to the real uid
    of the mount user. Unlike the linux_uid, the uid= option does not
    override this parameter. The parm is sent to cifs.upcall, which can then
    preferentially use the creduid= parm instead of the uid= parm for
    finding credentials.
    
    This is not the only way to solve this. We could try to do all of this
    in kernel instead by having a module parameter that affects what gets
    passed in the uid= field of the upcall. That said, we have a lot more
    flexibility to change things in userspace so I think it probably makes
    sense to do it this way.
