The FreeBSD VM system totally ignores the sticky bit (S_ISVTX) for executables.
   On UFS-based file systems (FFS,    LFS) the sticky    bit may    only be   
set upon directories.

This does seem like we cannot support UFS for Glusterfs bricks.


However, from my tests:

I was able to set the T bit if I built and ran the attached test file as root.


I wanted to try the same thing in the gluster code but I couldn't get it to
build after I made the changes in
/usr/ports/net/glusterfs/work/glusterfs-3.7.6/xlators/storage/posix/src/posix.c

If you can let me know how to do that, I can try it out anyway.

However, we do rely heavily on the sticky bit for some of our internal ops so I
would not recommend that UFS be used for the bricks if this is the expected
behaviour. Can you please try the same with XFS bricks and see if the problem
exists?
