CONFIG_NFS_V3_ACL: NFS client support for the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_NFS_V3_ACL has multiple definitions:

NFS client support for the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension found in fs/nfs/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_NFS_V3_ACL:

• prompt: NFS client support for the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_NFS_V3
• defined in fs/nfs/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 2.6.29–2.6.39, 3.0–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.12

Help text

Some NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that Sun added to Solaris but never became an official part of the NFS version 3 protocol. This protocol extension allows applications on NFS clients to manipulate POSIX Access Control Lists on files residing on NFS servers. NFS servers enforce ACLs on local files whether this protocol is available or not.

Choose Y here if your NFS server supports the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol extension and you want your NFS client to allow applications to access and modify ACLs on files on the server.

Most NFS servers don't support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol extension. You can choose N here or specify the "noacl" mount option to prevent your NFS client from trying to use the NFSv3 ACL protocol.

If unsure, say N.

Implement the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension for manipulating POSIX Access Control Lists. The server should also be compiled with the NFSv3 ACL protocol extension; see the NFSD_V3_ACL option.

If unsure, say N.
