INODE_PERMISSION(9)		 The Linux VFS		   INODE_PERMISSION(9)

NAME
       inode_permission - check for access rights to a given inode

SYNOPSIS
       int inode_permission(struct inode * inode, int mask);

ARGUMENTS
       inode
	   inode to check permission on

       mask
	   right to check for (MAY_READ, MAY_WRITE, MAY_EXEC)

DESCRIPTION
       Used to check for read/write/execute permissions on an inode. We use
       “fsuid” for this, letting us set arbitrary permissions for filesystem
       access without changing the “normal” uids which are used for other
       things.
