They will accept a +decimal numeric value which will be used as the default ID for that mount. +They will also accept the string "ignore" and "forget". For files on the disk +that are owned by nobody ( -1 ), they will instead look as if they are owned +by the default ID. The ignore option causes the default ID to override all +IDs on the disk, not just -1. The forget option causes all IDs to be written +to disk as -1, so when the media is later remounted, they will appear to be +owned by whatever default ID it is mounted with at that time. + +For typical desktop use of removable media, you should set the ID to that +of the interactively logged on user, and also specify both the forget and +ignore options. This way the interactive user will always see the files +on the disk as belonging to him. + The remaining are for debugging and disaster recovery: novrs Skip volume sequence recognition diff --git a/fs/udf/inode.c b/fs/udf/inode.c index d04cff2273b6..81e0e8459af1 100644 --- a/fs/udf/inode.c +++ b/fs/udf/inode.c @@ -1341,13 +1341,11 @@ udf_update_inode(struct inode *inode, int do_sync) if (UDF_QUERY_FLAG(inode->i_sb, UDF_FLAG_UID_FORGET)) fe->uid = cpu_to_le32(-1); - else if (inode->i_uid != UDF_SB(inode->i_sb)->s_uid) - fe->uid = cpu_to_le32(inode->i_uid); + else fe->uid = cpu_to_le32(inode->i_uid); if (UDF_QUERY_FLAG(inode->i_sb, UDF_FLAG_GID_FORGET)) fe->gid = cpu_to_le32(-1); - else if (inode->i_gid != UDF_SB(inode->i_sb)->s_gid) - fe->gid = cpu_to_le32(inode->i_gid); + else fe->gid = cpu_to_le32(inode->i_gid); udfperms = ((inode->i_mode & S_IRWXO) ) | ((inode->i_mode & S_IRWXG) << 2) | |
