            Bug ID: 14499
           Summary: expose NT ACLs via system.nfs4_acl EA
           Product: CifsVFS
           Version: 5.x
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: kernel fs
          Assignee: sfrench@samba.org
          Reporter: bjacke@samba.org
        QA Contact: cifs-qa@samba.org
  Target Milestone: ---

At SambaXP 2020 the idea came up to expose the NT ACLs via the more commonly
used extended attribute system.nfs4_acl - which is the default attribute also
for NFS4. Those ACLs can be managed with the well known toolset of
nfs4-acl-tools and those ACLs could even be managed by Samba through the
nfs4acl_xattr module. This would improve overall cifs ACL management a lot.

This bug is to folow the status of this idea, is there some rough eta for this,
Steve?
