Access to SACL part of SMB security descriptor is granted by SACL privilege which by default is accessible only for local administrator. But it can be granted to any other user by local GPO or AD. SACL access is not granted by DACL permissions and therefore is it possible that some user would not have access to DACLs of some file, but would have access to SACLs of all files. So it means that for accessing SACLs (either getting or setting) in some cases requires not touching or asking for DACLs. Currently Linux SMB client does not allow to get or set SACLs without touching DACLs. Which means that user without DACL access is not able to get or set SACLs even if it has access to SACLs. Fix this problem by introducing a new xattr "system.smb3_ntsd_sacl" for accessing only SACLs part of the security descriptor (therefore without DACLs and OWNER/GROUP).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
