From f29efe292198b9dbf67fb79ec9ffb5865ca29fb8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sargun Dhillon Date: Thu, 11 May 2017 21:17:33 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: add quota override flag to enable quota override for CAP_SYS_RESOURCE This patch introduces the quota override flag to btrfs_fs_info, and a change to quota limit checking code to temporarily allow for quota to be overridden for processes with CAP_SYS_RESOURCE. It's useful for administrative programs, such as log rotation, that may need to temporarily use more disk space in order to free up a greater amount of overall disk space without yielding more disk space to the rest of userland. Eventually, we may want to add the idea of an operator-specific quota, operator reserved space, or something else to allow for administrative override, but this is perhaps the simplest solution.
