Hi Christoph,

Yeah for the first main I used Outlook to send, the second email with patch was sent directly using GIT so should be formatted well.
Sorry I am beginner here.

Ah yes, I forgot about VFS, true. What is the best place to keep them then?
Or is it a big issue to extend VFS with them?
I mean NFSv4 - style ACLs are IMHO even better than Posix ACLs - if not for anything else then because Posix ACLs have never been ratified - maybe we'll see them on local FS at some stage, too.

Thanks,
Ondrej

Well, for that a proper formatted mail really helps.

And these identifiers do not belong into xattr.h.  They are a non-sanctioned NFS side API, not a VFS API.
