NAME
vfs_linux_xfs_sgid - Workaround XFS sgid bit not inherited
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = linux_xfs_sgid
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
vfs_linux_xfs_sgid is a VFS module to work around an old Linux XFS bug
fixed in 3.11: the SGID bit is not inherited during mkdir when a
default ACL is set
(https://web.archive.org/web/20160320180937/http://oss.sgi.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=280

The vfs_linux_xfs_sgid VFS module will work around this bug by manually
setting the SGID bit after a mkdir if the parent directory had the SGID
bit set.
This module is stackable.
