Extended Attributes was a piece to get to ACLs, however ACLs have not

been worked on, so EA is pointless to maintain.

-.Dd December 23, 1999
-.Os
-.Dt EXTATTR 9
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm extattr
-.Nd virtual file system named extended attributes
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Fd #include <sys/param.h>
-.Fd #include <sys/vnode.h>
-.Fd #include <sys/extattr.h>
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-Named extended attributes allow additional meta-data to be associated
-with vnodes representing files and directories.
-The semantics of this additional data is that of a "name=value" pair, where
-a name may be defined or undefined, and if defined, associated with zero or
-more bytes of arbitrary binary data.
-Extended attribute names exist within a set of namespaces; each operation
-on an extended attribute is required to provide the namespace to which the
-operation refers.
-If the same name is present in multiple namespaces, the extended attributes
-associated with the names are stored and manipulated independently.
-The following two namespaces are defined universally, although individual
-file systems may implement additional namespaces, or not implement
-these namespaces:
-.Dv EXTATTR_NAMESPACE_USER ,
-.Dv EXTATTR_NAMESPACE_SYSTEM .
-The semantics of these attributes are intended to be as follows: user
-attribute data is protected according the normal discretionary
-and mandatory protections associated with the data in the file or
-directory; system attribute data is protected such that appropriate
-privilege is required to directly access or manipulate these attributes.
-.Pp
-Reads of extended attribute data may return specific contiguous regions of
-the meta-data, in the style of
-.Xr VOP_READ 9 ,
-but writes will replace the entire current "value" associated with
-a given name.
-As there are a plethora of file systems with differing extended attributes,
-availability and functionality of these functions may be limited, and they
-should be used with awareness of the underlying semantics of the supporting
-file system.
-Authorization schemes for extended attribute data may also vary by file
-system, as well as maximum attribute size, and whether or not any or
-specific new attributes may be defined.
-.Pp
-Extended attributes are named using a null-terminated character string.
-Depending on underlying file system semantics, this name may or may not be
-case-sensitive.
-Appropriate vnode extended attribute calls are:
-.Xr VOP_GETEXTATTR 9
-and
-.Xr VOP_SETEXTATTR 9 .
-.Sh AUTHORS
-This man page was written by
-.An Robert Watson .
-.Sh BUGS
-In addition, the interface does not provide a mechanism to retrieve
-the current set of available attributes; it has been suggested that
-providing a
-.Dv NULL
-attribute name should cause a list of defined attributes for the passed file
-or directory, but this is not currently implemented.
