Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Remove restricted_chown parameter
Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2008 23:53:25 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080929215325.GB30363@lst.de> (raw)
From: Tim Shimmin <tes@sgi.com>
On Linux all filesystems are supposed to be operating under
Posix' restricted chown. Restricted chown means it restricts
chown to the owner unless you have CAP_FOWNER.
