The root of the problem seems to be an asymmetry in how Samba maps filesystem to Windows EAs and back. For SMB_INFO_SET_EA it's foo (Windows) ---> user.foo (filesystem) whereas SMB_INFO_QUERY_ALL_EAS map as user.foo (filesystem) ---> foo (Windows) other.bar (filesystem) ---> other.bar (Windows) This means a) the Windows side cannot distinguish between other.bar and user.other.bar, and b) a copy operation via Samba turns other.bar into user.other.bar (leading to the issue at hand because the user.* EA namespace is off by default in Lustre). So rather than adding a VFS module filtering some EAs, why not just make the mapping symmetric, ie. diff --git a/source3/smbd/smb2_trans2.c b/source3/smbd/smb2_trans2.c index 95cecce96e1..31a7a04a72c 100644 --- a/source3/smbd/smb2_trans2.c +++ b/source3/smbd/smb2_trans2.c @@ -454,7 +454,7 @@ static NTSTATUS get_ea_list_from_fsp(TALLOC_CTX *mem_ctx, struct ea_list *listp; fstring dos_ea_name; - if (strnequal(names[i], "system.", 7) + if (!strnequal(names[i], "user.", 5) || samba_private_attr_name(names[i])) continue; What am I missing?
