[PATCH] new delete-on-close scenes

Hi,
I have a customer scenario where they're trying to use programs on a share
where DELETE access on parent folder is disabled by intention, and samba
behaves here different than windows.
Windows lets to create temporary files having delete_on_close flag at
create even when you don't have that access.
We have found smb2.delete-on-close already covering this (found Richard
Sharpe in commit history), but I've continued to explore it further:
- allows to set delete-on-close via setinfo at any time until close (which
really removes it on windows)
- allows it for directories (+ other special files? entire trees?)
- DELETE desired access comes with RENAME
- you can delete it whenever you want once after you got the DELETE
desired access at create, which you get not necessarily just upon new
files but also at the time you still had the access but meanwhile revoked
(and file gets removed in the end anyway).
See attachment (tested against win7).
Does anybody already dived into this already or have further interest?
Somebody at least should ask protocol clarification, I haven't found
anything in here: MS-FSA.pdf, MS-FSCC.pdf, MS-SMB2.pdf or MSDN.
To me it looks granting the DELETE access at create time is the key
(overriding ACLs): either it's a new file, or you must have this access
(only!) at create time.
But given we possibly just want the mostly needed subset of the whole
feature stack (grant DELETE - only - on new files, enforce delete at close
as root when it was really a new file) I'd already like to work on this
part.
Please let me know your opinion.
