Description James Yale 2013-05-13 14:14:55 UTC
Description of problem: Despite backend filesystems on bricks being mounted with ACL support and having POSIX ACLs applied to files and directories via clients using the Gluster fuse client the permissions are not reflected on an NFS client, nor can they be set via an NFS client.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.4beta1, 3.4alpha3, 3.4alpha2


How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Spin up 2 bricks in replica mode, start a volume
2. Mount volume via Gluster fuse client (with -o acl), set ACLs on test file using setfacl, verify with getfacl
3. Verify extended permissions are present on brick file systems
4. Mount volume via NFS client (with -o acl), list files permissions via ls -la or getfacl
  
Actual results:
POSIX ACLs are not displayed with ls -la 
getfacl returns invalid argument when querying a file with ACLs.

Expected results:
ls -la displays files with + to indicate presence of POSIX ACLs
getfacl displays extended ACL detail

On debian based, the problem is reversed on 3.4 stable.

On Nfs3(mounted with acl) we can see the acl on files, and via gluster fuse client : acl on files do not appear.

Comment 2 Charles Nguyen 2013-08-08 17:12:27 UTC
This is also the case with the release version in the yum repository for CentOS. It works properly with FUSE, does not work with NFSv3.

Can you please confirm it on the latest GlusterFS  mainline release?

GlusterFS 3.7.0 has been released (http://www.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2015-May/021901.html), and the Gluster project maintains N-2 supported releases. The last two releases before 3.7 are still maintained, at the moment these are 3.6 and 3.5.

This bug has been filed against the 3,4 release, and will not get fixed in a 3.4 version any more. Please verify if newer versions are affected with the reported problem. If that is the case, update the bug with a note, and update the version if you can. In case updating the version is not possible, leave a comment in this bug report with the version you tested, and set the "Need additional information the selected bugs from" below the comment box to "bugs".

If there is no response by the end of the month, this bug will get automatically closed.

Comment 6 Kaleb KEITHLEY 2015-10-07 14:05:55 UTC
GlusterFS 3.4.x has reached end-of-life.

If this bug still exists in a later release please reopen this and change the version or open a new bug.
