Tiger,

Now the v1 acl_tests script for acl testing on ocfs2 was available,it was 
more likely behaving as a sanity checker from userpace tools' point of view
since we know the acl was mostly relied on xattr which has been thoroughly tested
by former xattr testing suite.

The first round testing for acl on ocfs2 completed by this tools, the results were fairly
good enough for me since almost all of the testcases behaved the same as on ext3 as we 
expected, you can use it to perform a sanity check before you release a new version of acl 
patch set on ocfs2. also it will be worthwhile for you to do a comparison test with ext3.

Btw, it will be much better to test the ACLs when integrated with xattr testing suite.


Regards,

Tristan
