supporting --fake-super on opensolaris (zfs) destination

[Enrico Cavalli]

Hello everybody. I wrote a small patch in order to support what I think
is an absolutely needed feature in order to make rsync-based backups
retaining complete ownership permission when writing to an opensolaris
machine using --fake-super.

My goal is making backups of linux boxes to opensolaris/zfs.

In order to make it work just do 

patch -p1 < patch_file.txt

inside rsync source tree.

and set 

#define SUPPORT_XATTRS 1 

in config.h

I tested the patch with rsync 3.0.6 and the last git commit.


Disclaimer: 

1) I'm not a filesystem programmer
2) the patch is surely full of nasty bugs and could be insecure/break
your systems. etc etc.
3) even if you define SUPPORT_XATTRS, rsync -X won't work


TODO 

- write true xattr support for opensolaris
- wrap this up with configure to recognize opensolaris and define
HAVE_SOLARIS_XATTRS for instance
- support linux XATTRS on symlinks on the solaris side: for instance 
if I have /usr/bin/xyz -> /usr/bin/abc I could write the extended
attributes of symlink xyz inside a directory named xyz rooted at the
parent /usr/bin


I hope my little effort would encourage some true system programmers to
write somthing more general and useful.


Please do not laugh reading my code: see disclaimer :)
