TXATTRWALK: Descend a ATTR namespace
size[4] TXATTRWALK tag[2] fid[4] newfid[4] name[s]
size[4] RXATTRWALK tag[2] size[8]
txattrwalk gets a fid pointing to xattr. This fid can later be
used to get read the xattr value. If name is NULL the fid returned
can be used to get the list of extended attribute associated to
the file system object.

SYNOPSIS
size[4] Tsetattr tag[2] attr[n]
size[4] Rsetattr tag[2]
DESCRIPTION
The setattr command changes some of the file status information.
attr resembles the iattr structure used in Linux kernel. It
specifies which status parameter is to be changed and to what
value. It is laid out as follows:
valid[4]
specifies which status information is to be changed. Possible
values are:
ATTR_MODE (1 << 0)
ATTR_UID (1 << 1)
ATTR_GID (1 << 2)
ATTR_SIZE (1 << 3)
ATTR_ATIME (1 << 4)
ATTR_MTIME (1 << 5)
ATTR_CTIME (1 << 5)
ATTR_ATIME_SET (1 << 7)
ATTR_MTIME_SET (1 << 8)
The last two bits represent whether the time information
is being sent by the client's user space. In the absense
of these bits the server always uses server's time.
mode[4]
File permission bits
uid[4]
Owner id of file
gid[4]
Group id of the file
size[8]
File size
atime_sec[8]
Time of last file access, seconds
atime_nsec[8]
Time of last file access, nanoseconds
mtime_sec[8]
Time of last file modification, seconds
mtime_nsec[8]
Time of last file modification, nanoseconds
Explanation of the patches:
--------------------------
*) The kernel just copies relevent contents of iattr structure to p9_iattr_dotl
structure and passes it down to the client. The only check it has is calling
inode_change_ok()
*) The p9_iattr_dotl structure does not have ctime and ia_file parameters because
I don't think these are needed in our case. The client user space can request
updating just ctime by calling chown(fd, -1, -1). This is handled on server
side without a need for putting ctime on the wire.
*) The server currently supports changing mode, time, ownership and size of the
file.
*) 9P RFC says "Either all the changes in wstat request happen, or none of them
does: if the request succeeds, all changes were made; if it fails, none were."
I have not done anything to implement this specifically because I don't see
a reason.

Current code resets file's atime to 0 when there is a change in mtime.
This results in resetting the atime to "1970-01-01 05:30:00". For
example, truncate -s 0 filename results in changing the mtime to the
truncate time, but resets the atime to "1970-01-01 05:30:00". utime
system call does not have any provision to set only mtime or atime. So
change v9fs_wstat_post_chmod function to use utimensat function to change
the atime and mtime fields. If tv_nsec field is set to the special value
"UTIME_OMIT", corresponding file time stamp is not updated.

Mapped mode stores extended attributes in the user space of the extended
attributes. Given that the user space extended attributes are available
to regular files only, special files are created as regular files on the
fileserver and appropriate mode bits are added to the extended attributes.
This method presents all special files and symlinks as regular files on the
fileserver while they are represented as special files on the guest mount.

This method presents all special files and symlinks as regular files on the

Implemntation of symlink in mapped security model:
A regular file is created and the link target is written to it.
readlink() reads it back from the file.
On Guest/Client:

On Host/Fileserver:
-rw-------. 1 root root 6 2010-05-11 09:20 asymlink

Under passthrough model, it just calls underlying symlink() readlink()
system calls are used.
Under both security models, client user credentials are changed
after the filesystem objec creation.

In the mapped security model, VirtFS server intercepts and maps
the file object create and get/set attribute requests. Files on the fileserver
will be created with VirtFS servers (QEMU) user credentials and the
client-users credentials are stored in extended attributes. On the request
to get attributes, server extracts the client-users credentials
from extended attributes and sends them to the client.
