a bug when chown command is called with just the GID, no UID. #11

Closed hradec closed 5 years ago

There's a bug happening when a chown is being issued to a folder which sets just the group, without a user:

chown :700 '/folder'

when this is issued, the journal reports this: 

[0] chown (9) : path='/folder', to='' : mode=0, dev=0, uid=4294967295, gid=700, size=0, utimebuf=0,0

so it seems when a chown without a user is issued, mcachefs "fills up" the missing UID with 0xFFFFFFFF automatically, instead of maintaining the UID the folder already have.

I'm working on fix it, but I would appreciate any pointers from someone who already knowns the code better than me!

Thanks @hradec !
