ACCESS CONTROL LIST (ACL) BINDING IN A DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM

摘要

Systems for updating an access control list (ACL) associated with one or more resources in a data processing system are provided. The system provides a table including a list of one or more first ACLs that map to a corresponding one or more previously computed second ACLs. The system also updates a current ACL associated with a first resource of the one or more resources in the data processing system including determining whether one of the one or more first ACLs in the table matches the current ACL associated with the first resource. If one of the one or more first ACLs in the table matches the current ACL associated with the first resource then updating the current ACL associated with the first resource by associating the corresponding second ACL with the first resource.
