2017-07-10afs: Add metadata xattrsDavid Howells1-0/+121
Add xattrs to allow the user to get/set metadata in lieu of having pioctl() available. The following xattrs are now available: - "afs.cell" The name of the cell in which the vnode's volume resides. - "afs.fid" The volume ID, vnode ID and vnode uniquifier of the file as three hex numbers separated by colons. - "afs.volume" The name of the volume in which the vnode resides. For example: # getfattr -d -m ".*" /mnt/scratch getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names # file: mnt/scratch afs.cell="mycell.myorg.org" afs.fid="10000b:1:1" afs.volume="scratch" Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
