Does the ntdll export RtlMapGenericMask have anything to do with mapping
GENERIC_xxxx
flags into STANDARD_RIGHTS_xxxx? Is there any information regarding that?
Yes, it is exactly that. There is a port of that function into
wineserver in server/token.c called map_generic_mask that I used for the
purpose of mapping generic access rights in the token functions. The
problem with translating from generic access rights is that they don't
map onto Unix access rights very well. I suspect that the best solution
is to request read access if any of the NT read rights are requested and
similarly for the write rights.
