+ <term>freebsd:extattr mode=[legacy|compat|secure]</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>This parameter defines how the emulation of the Linux attr(5) extended attributes
+ is performed through the FreeBSD native extattr(9) system calls.</para>
+
+ <para>Currently the <emphasis>security</emphasis>, <emphasis>system</emphasis>,
+ <emphasis>trusted</emphasis> and <emphasis>user</emphasis> extended attribute(xattr)
+ classes are defined in Linux. Contrary FreeBSD has only <emphasis>USER</emphasis>
+ and <emphasis>SYSTEM</emphasis> extended attribute(extattr) namespaces, so mapping
+ of one set into another isn't straightforward and can be done in different ways.</para>
+
+ <para>Historically the Samba(7) built-in xattr mapping implementation simply converted
+ <emphasis>system</emphasis> and <emphasis>user</emphasis> xattr into corresponding
+ <emphasis>SYSTEM</emphasis> and <emphasis>USER</emphasis> extattr namespaces, dropping
+ the class prefix name with the separating dot and using attribute name only within the
+ mapped namespace. It also rejected any other xattr classes, like <emphasis>security</emphasis>
+ and <emphasis>trusted</emphasis> as invalid. Such behavior in particular broke AD
+ provisioning on UFS2 file systems as essential <emphasis>security.NTACL</emphasis>
+ xattr was rejected as invalid.</para>
+
+ <para>This module tries to address this problem and provide secure, where it's possible,
+ way to map Linux xattr into FreeBSD's extattr.</para>
+
+ <para>When <emphasis>mode</emphasis> is set to the <emphasis>legacy (default)</emphasis>
+ then modified version of built-in mapping is used, where <emphasis>system</emphasis> xattr
+ is mapped into SYSTEM namespace, while <emphasis>secure</emphasis>, <emphasis>trusted</emphasis>
+ and <emphasis>user</emphasis> xattr are all mapped into the USER namespace, dropping class
+ prefixes and mix them all together. This is the way how Samba FreeBSD ports were patched
+ up to the 4.9 version and that created multiple potential security issues. This mode is aimed for
+ the compatibility with the legacy installations only and should be avoided in new setups.</para>
+
+ <para>The <emphasis>compat</emphasis> mode is mostly designed for the jailed environments,
+ where it's not possible to write extattrs into the secure SYSTEM namespace, so all four
+ classes are mapped into the USER namespace. To preserve information about origin of the
+ extended attribute it is stored together with the class preffix in the <emphasis>class.attribute</emphasis>
+ format.</para>
+
+ <para>The <emphasis>secure</emphasis> mode is meant for storing extended attributes in a secure
+ manner, so that <emphasis>security</emphasis>, <emphasis>system</emphasis> and <emphasis>trusted</emphasis>
+ are stored in the SYSTEM namespace, which can be modified only by root.
