[fuse-devel] Secondary groups

[<ma...@ne...>]

Hello

It seems there is no way for a FUSE filesystem to get the client process
secondary groups, at least through the FUSE protocol. It is always
possible to get the information from /proc, but this is at the expense
of opening a file there for each filesystem operation.

Are there plans on how to address that? It would probably require an
upgrade to the FUSE protocol, either by modifying struct fuse_in_header,
or by adding a trailer to packets with that information attached. Anyone
thought about it?
