3 Support deep tree mounts. Better support OS/2, Win9x (DOS) time stamps.
4 Allow null user to be specified on mount ("username="). Do not return
5 EINVAL on readdir when filldir fails due to overwritten blocksize
6 (fixes FC problem). Return error in rename 2nd attempt retry (ie report
7 if rename by handle also fails, after rename by path fails, we were
8 not reporting whether the retry worked or not).
12 Do not time out lockw calls when using posix extensions. Do not
13 time out requests if server still responding reasonably fast
14 on requests on other threads. Improve POSIX locking emulation,
15 (lock cancel now works, and unlock of merged range works even
16 to Windows servers now). Fix oops on mount to lanman servers
17 (win9x, os/2 etc.) when null password. Do not send listxattr
18 (SMB to query all EAs) if nouser_xattr specified. Fix SE Linux
19 problem (instantiate inodes/dentries in right order for readdir).
23 Rewritten sessionsetup support, including support for legacy SMB
24 session setup needed for OS/2 and older servers such as Windows 95 and 98.
25 Fix oops on ls to OS/2 servers. Add support for level 1 FindFirst
26 so we can do search (ls etc.) to OS/2. Do not send NTCreateX
27 or recent levels of FindFirst unless server says it supports NT SMBs
28 (instead use legacy equivalents from LANMAN dialect). Fix to allow
29 NTLMv2 authentication support (now can use stronger password hashing
30 on mount if corresponding /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags is set (0x4004).
31 Allow override of global cifs security flags on mount via "sec=" option(s).
35 POSIX locking to servers which support CIFS POSIX Extensions
36 (disabled by default controlled by proc/fs/cifs/Experimental).
37 Handle conversion of long share names (especially Asian languages)
38 to Unicode during mount. Fix memory leak in sess struct on reconnect.
39 Fix rare oops after acpi suspend. Fix O_TRUNC opens to overwrite on
40 cifs open which helps rare case when setpathinfo fails or server does
45 Fix slow oplock break when mounted to different servers at the same time and
46 the tids match and we try to find matching fid on wrong server. Fix read
47 looping when signing required by server (2.6.16 kernel only). Fix readdir
48 vs. rename race which could cause each to hang. Return . and .. even
49 if server does not. Allow searches to skip first three entries and
50 begin at any location. Fix oops in find_writeable_file.
54 Fix NTLMv2 security (can be enabled in /proc/fs/cifs) so customers can
55 configure stronger authentication. Fix sfu symlinks so they can
56 be followed (not just recognized). Fix wraparound of bcc on
57 read responses when buffer size over 64K and also fix wrap of
58 max smb buffer size when CIFSMaxBufSize over 64K. Fix oops in
59 cifs_user_read and cifs_readpages (when EAGAIN on send of smb
60 on socket is returned over and over). Add POSIX (advisory) byte range
61 locking support (requires server with newest CIFS UNIX Extensions
62 to the protocol implemented). Slow down negprot slightly in port 139
63 RFC1001 case to give session_init time on buggy servers.
67 Use fsuid (fsgid) more consistently instead of uid (gid). Improve performance
68 of readpages by eliminating one extra memcpy. Allow update of file size
69 from remote server even if file is open for write as long as mount is
70 directio. Recognize share mode security and send NTLM encrypted password
71 on tree connect if share mode negotiated.
75 Defer close of a file handle slightly if pending writes depend on that handle
76 (this reduces the EBADF bad file handle errors that can be logged under heavy
77 stress on writes). Modify cifs Kconfig options to expose CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2
78 Fix SFU style symlinks and mknod needed for servers which do not support the
79 CIFS Unix Extensions. Fix setfacl/getfacl on bigendian. Timeout negative
80 dentries so files that the client sees as deleted but that later get created
81 on the server will be recognized. Add client side permission check on setattr.
82 Timeout stuck requests better (where server has never responded or sent corrupt
87 Fix tcp socket retransmission timeouts (e.g. on ENOSPACE from the socket)
88 to be smaller at first (but increasing) so large write performance performance
89 over GigE is better. Do not hang thread on illegal byte range lock response
90 from Windows (Windows can send an RFC1001 size which does not match smb size) by
91 allowing an SMBs TCP length to be up to a few bytes longer than it should be.
92 wsize and rsize can now be larger than negotiated buffer size if server
93 supports large readx/writex, even when directio mount flag not specified.
94 Write size will in many cases now be 16K instead of 4K which greatly helps
95 file copy performance on lightly loaded networks. Fix oops in dnotify
96 when experimental config flag enabled. Make cifsFYI more granular.
100 Fix readdir caching when unlink removes file in current search buffer,
101 and this is followed by a rewind search to just before the deleted entry.
102 Do not attempt to set ctime unless atime and/or mtime change requested
103 (most servers throw it away anyway). Fix length check of received smbs
104 to be more accurate. Fix big endian problem with mapchars mount option,
105 and with a field returned by statfs.
109 Add support for mounting to older pre-CIFS servers such as Windows9x and ME.
110 For these older servers, add option for passing netbios name of server in
111 on mount (servernetbiosname). Add suspend support for power management, to
112 avoid cifsd thread preventing software suspend from working.
113 Add mount option for disabling the default behavior of sending byte range lock
114 requests to the server (necessary for certain applications which break with
115 mandatory lock behavior such as Evolution), and also mount option for
116 requesting case insensitive matching for path based requests (requesting
117 case sensitive is the default).
121 Add writepage performance improvements. Fix path name conversions
122 for long filenames on mounts which were done with "mapchars" mount option
123 specified. Ensure multiplex ids do not collide. Fix case in which
124 rmmod can oops if done soon after last unmount. Fix truncated
125 search (readdir) output when resume filename was a long filename.
126 Fix filename conversion when mapchars mount option was specified and
127 filename was a long filename.
131 Fix error mapping of the TOO_MANY_LINKS (hardlinks) case.
132 Do not oops if root user kills cifs oplock kernel thread or
133 kills the cifsd thread (NB: killing the cifs kernel threads is not
134 recommended, unmount and rmmod cifs will kill them when they are
135 no longer needed). Fix readdir to ASCII servers (ie older servers
136 which do not support Unicode) and also require asterisk.
137 Fix out of memory case in which data could be written one page
138 off in the page cache.
142 Fix caching problem, in which readdir of directory containing a file
143 which was cached could cause the file's time stamp to be updated
144 without invalidating the readahead data (so we could get stale
145 file data on the client for that file even as the server copy changed).
146 Cleanup response processing so cifsd can not loop when abnormally
152 Fix oops in ls when Transact2 FindFirst (or FindNext) returns more than one
153 transact response for an SMB request and search entry split across two frames.
154 Add support for lsattr (getting ext2/ext3/reiserfs attr flags from the server)
155 as new protocol extensions. Do not send Get/Set calls for POSIX ACLs
156 unless server explicitly claims to support them in CIFS Unix extensions
157 POSIX ACL capability bit. Fix packet signing when multiuser mounting with
158 different users from the same client to the same server. Fix oops in
159 cifs_close. Add mount option for remapping reserved characters in
160 filenames (also allow recognizing files with created by SFU which have any
161 of these seven reserved characters, except backslash, to be recognized).
162 Fix invalid transact2 message (we were sometimes trying to interpret
163 oplock breaks as SMB responses). Add ioctl for checking that the
164 current uid matches the uid of the mounter (needed by umount.cifs).
165 Reduce the number of large buffer allocations in cifs response processing
166 (significantly reduces memory pressure under heavy stress with multiple
167 processes accessing the same server at the same time).
171 Fix updates of DOS attributes and time fields so that files on NT4 servers
172 do not get marked delete on close. Display sizes of cifs buffer pools in
173 cifs stats. Fix oops in unmount when cifsd thread being killed by
174 shutdown. Add generic readv/writev and aio support. Report inode numbers
175 consistently in readdir and lookup (when serverino mount option is
176 specified use the inode number that the server reports - for both lookup
177 and readdir, otherwise by default the locally generated inode number is used
178 for inodes created in either path since servers are not always able to
179 provide unique inode numbers when exporting multiple volumes from under one
184 Allow new nouser_xattr mount parm to disable xattr support for user namespace.
185 Do not flag user_xattr mount parm in dmesg. Retry failures setting file time
186 (mostly affects NT4 servers) by retry with handle based network operation.
187 Add new POSIX Query FS Info for returning statfs info more accurately.
188 Handle passwords with multiple commas in them.
192 Fix default mode in sysfs of cifs module parms. Remove old readdir routine.
193 Fix capabilities flags for large readx so as to allow reads larger than 64K.
197 Add module init parm for large SMB buffer size (to allow it to be changed
198 from its default of 16K) which is especially useful for large file copy
199 when mounting with the directio mount option. Fix oops after
200 returning from mount when experimental ExtendedSecurity enabled and
201 SpnegoNegotiated returning invalid error. Fix case to retry better when
202 peek returns from 1 to 3 bytes on socket which should have more data.
203 Fixed path based calls (such as cifs lookup) to handle path names
204 longer than 530 (now can handle PATH_MAX). Fix pass through authentication
205 from Samba server to DC (Samba required dummy LM password).
209 Turn off DNOTIFY (directory change notification support) by default
210 (unless built with the experimental flag) to fix hang with KDE
211 file browser. Fix DNOTIFY flag mappings. Fix hang (in wait_event
212 waiting on an SMB response) in SendReceive when session dies but
213 reconnects quickly from another task. Add module init parms for
214 minimum number of large and small network buffers in the buffer pools,
215 and for the maximum number of simultaneous requests.
219 Add setfacl support to allow setting of ACLs remotely to Samba 3.10 and later
220 and other POSIX CIFS compliant servers. Fix error mapping for getfacl
221 to EOPNOTSUPP when server does not support posix acls on the wire. Fix
222 improperly zeroed buffer in CIFS Unix extensions set times call.
226 Fix internationalization problem in cifs readdir with filenames that map to
227 longer UTF-8 strings than the string on the wire was in Unicode. Add workaround
228 for readdir to netapp servers. Fix search rewind (seek into readdir to return
229 non-consecutive entries). Do not do readdir when server negotiates
230 buffer size to small to fit filename. Add support for reading POSIX ACLs from
231 the server (add also acl and noacl mount options).
235 Optionally allow using server side inode numbers, rather than client generated
236 ones by specifying mount option "serverino" - this is required for some apps
237 to work which double check hardlinked files and have persistent inode numbers.
241 Multiple bigendian fixes. On little endian systems (for reconnect after
242 network failure) fix tcp session reconnect code so we do not try first
243 to reconnect on reverse of port 445. Treat reparse points (NTFS junctions)
244 as directories rather than symlinks because we can do follow link on them.
248 Add config option to enable XATTR (extended attribute) support, mapping
249 xattr names in the "user." namespace space to SMB/CIFS EAs. Lots of
250 minor fixes pointed out by the Stanford SWAT checker (mostly missing
251 or out of order NULL pointer checks in little used error paths).
255 Add new mount parm to control whether mode check (generic_permission) is done
256 on the client. If Unix extensions are enabled and the uids on the client
257 and server do not match, client permission checks are meaningless on
258 server uids that do not exist on the client (this does not affect the
259 normal ACL check which occurs on the server). Fix default uid
260 on mknod to match create and mkdir. Add optional mount parm to allow
261 override of the default uid behavior (in which the server sets the uid
262 and gid of newly created files). Normally for network filesystem mounts
263 user want the server to set the uid/gid on newly created files (rather than
264 using uid of the client processes you would in a local filesystem).
268 Make transaction counts more consistent. Merge /proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps
269 info into /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData. Fix oops in rare oops in readdir
270 (in build_wildcard_path_from_dentry). Fix mknod to pass type field
271 (block/char/fifo) properly. Remove spurious mount warning log entry when
272 credentials passed as mount argument. Set major/minor device number in
273 inode for block and char devices when unix extensions enabled.
277 Fix /proc/fs/cifs/Stats and DebugData display to handle larger
278 amounts of return data. Properly limit requests to MAX_REQ (50
279 is the usual maximum active multiplex SMB/CIFS requests per server).
280 Do not kill cifsd (and thus hurt the other SMB session) when more than one
281 session to the same server (but with different userids) exists and one
282 of the two user's smb sessions is being removed while leaving the other.
283 Do not loop reconnecting in cifsd demultiplex thread when admin
284 kills the thread without going through unmount.
288 Do not rename hardlinked files (since that should be a noop). Flush
289 cached write behind data when reopening a file after session abend,
290 except when already in write. Grab per socket sem during reconnect
291 to avoid oops in sendmsg if overlapping with reconnect. Do not
292 reset cached inode file size on readdir for files open for write on
298 Update number of blocks in file so du command is happier (in Linux a fake
299 blocksize of 512 is required for calculating number of blocks in inode).
300 Fix prepare write of partial pages to read in data from server if possible.
301 Fix race on tcpStatus field between unmount and reconnection code, causing
302 cifsd process sometimes to hang around forever. Improve out of memory
303 checks in cifs_filldir
307 Fix incorrect file size in file handle based setattr on big endian hardware.
308 Fix oops in build_path_from_dentry when out of memory. Add checks for invalid
309 and closing file structs in writepage/partialpagewrite. Add statistics
310 for each mounted share (new menuconfig option). Fix endianness problem in
311 volume information displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData (only affects
312 affects big endian architectures). Prevent renames while constructing
313 path names for open, mkdir and rmdir.
317 Change to mempools for alloc smb request buffers and multiplex structs
318 to better handle low memory problems (and potential deadlocks).
322 Fix incomplete listings of large directories on Samba servers when Unix
323 extensions enabled. Fix oops when smb_buffer can not be allocated. Fix
324 rename deadlock when writing out dirty pages at same time.
328 Fix open of files in which O_CREATE can cause the mode to change in
329 some cases. Fix case in which retry of write overlaps file close.
330 Fix PPC64 build error. Reduce excessive stack usage in smb password
331 hashing. Fix overwrite of Linux user's view of file mode to Windows servers.
335 Fixes for large file copy, signal handling, socket retry, buffer
336 allocation and low memory situations.
340 Better port 139 support to Windows servers (RFC1001/RFC1002 Session_Initialize)
341 also now allowing support for specifying client netbiosname. NT4 support added.
345 Fix reconnection (and certain failed mounts) to properly wake up the
346 blocked users thread so it does not seem hung (in some cases was blocked
347 until the cifs receive timeout expired). Fix spurious error logging
348 to kernel log when application with open network files killed.
352 Fix /proc/fs module unload warning message (that could be logged
353 to the kernel log). Fix intermittent failure in connectathon
354 test7 (hardlink count not immediately refreshed in case in which
355 inode metadata can be incorrectly kept cached when time near zero)
359 Allow file_mode and dir_mode (specified at mount time) to be enforced
360 locally (the server already enforced its own ACLs too) for servers
361 that do not report the correct mode (do not support the
362 CIFS Unix Extensions).
366 Fix some small memory leaks in some unmount error paths. Fix major leak
367 of cache pages in readpages causing multiple read oriented stress
368 testcases (including fsx, and even large file copy) to fail over time.
372 Send NTCreateX with ATTR_POSIX if Linux/Unix extensions negotiated with server.
373 This allows files that differ only in case and improves performance of file
374 creation and file open to such servers. Fix semaphore conflict which causes
375 slow delete of open file to Samba (which unfortunately can cause an oplock
376 break to self while vfs_unlink held i_sem) which can hang for 20 seconds.
380 fixes to cifs_readpages for fsx test case
384 Fix caching data integrity bug when extending file size especially when no
385 oplock on file. Fix spurious logging of valid already parsed mount options
386 that are parsed outside of the cifs vfs such as nosuid.
391 Connect to server when port number override not specified, and tcp port
392 unitialized. Reset search to restart at correct file when kernel routine
393 filldir returns error during large directory searches (readdir).
397 Fix caching problem when files opened by multiple clients in which
398 page cache could contain stale data, and write through did
399 not occur often enough while file was still open when read ahead
400 (read oplock) not allowed. Treat "sep=" when first mount option
401 as an override of comma as the default separator between mount
406 Allow passwords longer than 16 bytes. Allow null password string.
410 Gracefully clean up failed mounts when attempting to mount to servers such as
411 Windows 98 that terminate tcp sessions during protocol negotiation. Handle
412 embedded commas in mount parsing of passwords.
416 Invalidate local inode cached pages on oplock break and when last file
417 instance is closed so that the client does not continue using stale local
418 copy rather than later modified server copy of file. Do not reconnect
419 when server drops the tcp session prematurely before negotiate
420 protocol response. Fix oops in reopen_file when dentry freed. Allow
421 the support for CIFS Unix Extensions to be disabled via proc interface.
425 Fix hang in commit_write during reconnection of open files under heavy load.
426 Fix unload_nls oops in a mount failure path. Serialize writes to same socket
427 which also fixes any possible races when cifs signatures are enabled in SMBs
428 being sent out of signature sequence number order.
432 Fix byte range locking bug (endian problem) causing bad offset and
437 Fix oops (in send_sig) caused by CIFS unmount code trying to
438 wake up the demultiplex thread after it had exited. Do not log
439 error on harmless oplock release of closed handle.
443 Fix unsafe global variable usage and password hash failure on gcc 3.3.1
444 Fix problem reconnecting secondary mounts to same server after session
445 failure. Fix invalid dentry - race in mkdir when directory gets created
446 by another client between the lookup and mkdir.
450 Fix to list processing in reopen_files. Fix reconnection when server hung
451 but tcpip session still alive. Set proper timeout on socket read.
455 Add missing mount options including iocharset. SMP fixes in write and open.
456 Fix errors in reconnecting after TCP session failure. Fix module unloading
457 of default nls codepage
461 Active smb transactions should never go negative (fix double FreeXid). Fix
462 list processing in file routines. Check return code on kmalloc in open.
463 Fix spinlock usage for SMP.
467 Fix oops in reopen_files when invalid dentry. drop dentry on server rename
468 and on revalidate errors. Fix cases where pid is now tgid. Fix return code
469 on create hard link when server does not support them.
473 Fix scheduling while atomic error in getting inode info on newly created file.
474 Fix truncate of existing files opened with O_CREAT but not O_TRUNC set.
478 Fix oops on write to dead tcp session. Remove error log write for case when file open
479 O_CREAT but not O_EXCL
483 Fix non-POSIX behavior on rename of open file and delete of open file by taking
484 advantage of trans2 SetFileInfo rename facility if available on target server.
485 Retry on ENOSPC and EAGAIN socket errors.
489 Fix oops on big endian readdir. Set blksize to be even power of two (2**blkbits) to fix
490 allocation size miscalculation. After oplock token lost do not read through
495 Fix oops on empty file readahead. Fix for file size handling for locally cached files.
499 Fix oops in mkdir when server fails to return inode info. Fix oops in reopen_files
500 during auto reconnection to server after server recovered from failure.
504 Finish support for Linux 2.5 open/create changes, which removes the
505 redundant NTCreate/QPathInfo/close that was sent during file create.
506 Enable oplock by default. Enable packet signing by default (needed to
507 access many recent Windows servers)
511 Fix oops when mounting to long server names caused by inverted parms to kmalloc.
512 Fix MultiuserMount (/proc/fs/cifs configuration setting) so that when enabled
513 we will choose a cifs user session (smb uid) that better matches the local
514 uid if a) the mount uid does not match the current uid and b) we have another
515 session to the same server (ip address) for a different mount which
516 matches the current local uid.
520 Add support for mknod of block or character devices. Fix oplock
521 code (distributed caching) to properly send response to oplock
526 Finish up CIFS packet digital signing for the default
527 NTLM security case. This should help Windows 2003
528 network interoperability since it is common for
529 packet signing to be required now. Fix statfs (stat -f)
530 which recently started returning errors due to
531 invalid value (-1 instead of 0) being set in the
532 struct kstatfs f_ffiles field.
536 Fix oops on stopping oplock thread when removing cifs when
541 Fix mount options for ro (readonly), uid, gid and file and directory mode.
545 Fix errors displayed on failed mounts to be more understandable.
546 Fixed various incorrect or misleading smb to posix error code mappings.
550 Fix display of NTFS DFS junctions to display as symlinks.
551 They are the network equivalent. Fix oops in
552 cifs_partialpagewrite caused by missing spinlock protection
553 of openfile linked list. Allow writebehind caching errors to
554 be returned to the application at file close.
558 Clean up options displayed in /proc/mounts by show_options to
559 be more consistent with other filesystems.
563 Fix delete of readonly file to Windows servers. Reflect
564 presence or absence of read only dos attribute in mode
565 bits for servers that do not support CIFS Unix extensions.
566 Fix shortened results on readdir of large directories to
567 servers supporting CIFS Unix extensions (caused by
568 incorrect resume key).
572 Fix truncate bug (set file size) that could cause hangs e.g. running fsx
576 unload nls if mount fails.
580 Add resume key support to search (readdir) code to workaround
581 Windows bug. Add /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnable which
582 allows disabling caching of attribute information for
587 Add more oplock handling (distributed caching code). Remove
588 dead code. Remove excessive stack space utilization from
593 Fix oops in get dfs referral (triggered when null path sent in to
594 mount). Add support for overriding rsize at mount time.
598 Fix buffer overrun in readdir which caused intermittent kernel oopses.
599 Fix writepage code to release kmap on write data. Allow "-ip=" new
600 mount option to be passed in on parameter distinct from the first part
601 (server name portion of) the UNC name. Allow override of the
602 tcp port of the target server via new mount option "-port="
606 Fix search handle leak on rewind. Fix setuid and gid so that they are
607 reflected in the local inode immediately. Cleanup of whitespace
608 to make 2.4 and 2.5 versions more consistent.
613 Fix signal sending so that captive thread (cifsd) exits on umount
614 (which was causing the warning in kmem_cache_free of the request buffers
615 at rmmod time). This had broken as a sideeffect of the recent global
616 kernel change to daemonize. Fix memory leak in readdir code which
617 showed up in "ls -R" (and applications that did search rewinding).
621 Reconnect tids and fids after session reconnection (still do not
622 reconnect byte range locks though). Fix problem caching
623 lookup information for directory inodes, improving performance,
624 especially in deep directory trees. Fix various build warnings.
628 Finish fixes to commit write for caching/readahead consistency. fsx
629 now works to Samba servers. Fix oops caused when readahead
630 was interrupted by a signal.
634 Fix data corruption (in partial page after truncate) that caused fsx to
635 fail to Windows servers. Cleaned up some extraneous error logging in
636 common error paths. Add generic sendfile support.
640 Fix memory leak in AllocMidQEntry.
641 Finish reconnection logic, so connection with server can be dropped
642 (or server rebooted) and the cifs client will reconnect.
646 Fix temporary socket leak when bad userid or password specified
647 (or other SMBSessSetup failure). Increase maximum buffer size to slightly
648 over 16K to allow negotiation of up to Samba and Windows server default read
649 sizes. Add support for readpages
653 Fix oops when username not passed in on mount. Extensive fixes and improvements
654 to error logging (strip redundant newlines, change debug macros to ensure newline
655 passed in and to be more consistent). Fix writepage wrong file handle problem,
656 a readonly file handle could be incorrectly used to attempt to write out
657 file updates through the page cache to multiply open files. This could cause
658 the iozone benchmark to fail on the fwrite test. Fix bug mounting two different
659 shares to the same Windows server when using different usernames
660 (doing this to Samba servers worked but Windows was rejecting it) - now it is
661 possible to use different userids when connecting to the same server from a
662 Linux client. Fix oops when treeDisconnect called during unmount on
663 previously freed socket.
667 Fix oops in readpages caused by not setting address space operations in inode in
672 Includes support for deleting of open files and renaming over existing files (per POSIX
673 requirement). Add readlink support for Windows junction points (directory symlinks).
677 Changed read and write to go through pagecache. Added additional address space operations.
678 Memory mapped operations now working.
682 Added writepage code for additional memory mapping support. Fixed leak in xids causing
683 the simultaneous operations counter (/proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps) to increase on
684 every stat call. Additional formatting cleanup.
688 Fix bigendian bug in order of time conversion. Merge 2.5 to 2.4 version. Formatting cleanup.
692 Fixes from Zwane Mwaikambo for adding missing return code checking in a few places.
693 Also included a modified version of his fix to protect global list manipulation of
694 the smb session and tree connection and mid related global variables.
698 Fix problem with captive thread hanging around at unmount time. Adjust to 2.5.42-pre
699 changes to superblock layout. Remove wasteful allocation of smb buffers (now the send
700 buffer is reused for responses). Add more oplock handling. Additional minor cleanup.
704 More stylistic updates to better match kernel style. Add additional statistics
705 for filesystem which can be viewed via /proc/fs/cifs. Add more pieces of NTLMv2
706 and CIFS Packet Signing enablement.
710 Replace call to sleep_on with safer wait_on_event.
711 Make stylistic changes to better match kernel style recommendations.
712 Remove most typedef usage (except for the PDUs themselves).
716 Update mount so the -unc mount option is no longer required (the ip address can be specified
717 in a UNC style device name. Implementation of readpage/writepage started.
721 Fix intermittent problem with incorrect smb header checking on badly
722 fragmented tcp responses
726 Fixes to setting of allocation size and file size.
730 Various 2.5.38 fixes. Now works on 2.5.38
734 Prepare for 2.5 kernel merge. Remove ifdefs.
738 Socket buffer management fixes. Fix dual free.
742 Various big endian fixes for hardlinks and symlinks and also for dfs.
746 Various big endian fixes for servers with Unix extensions such as Samba
750 Various FindNext fixes for incorrect filenames on large directory searches on big endian
751 clients. basic posix file i/o tests now work on big endian machines, not just le
755 SessionSetup and NegotiateProtocol now work from Big Endian machines.
756 Various Big Endian fixes found during testing on the Linux on 390. Various fixes for compatibility with older
757 versions of 2.4 kernel (now builds and works again on kernels at least as early as 2.4.7).
761 Various minor fixes for Connectathon Posix "basic" file i/o test suite. Directory caching fixed so hardlinked
762 files now return the correct number of links on fstat as they are repeatedly linked and unlinked.
766 Implemented "Raw" (i.e. not encapsulated in SPNEGO) NTLMSSP (i.e. the Security Provider Interface used to negotiate
767 session advanced session authentication). Raw NTLMSSP is preferred by Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP.
768 Began implementing support for SPNEGO encapsulation of NTLMSSP based session authentication blobs
769 (which is the mechanism preferred by Windows 2000 server in the absence of Kerberos).
773 Introduced optional mount helper utility mount.cifs and made coreq changes to cifs vfs to enable
774 it. Fixed a few bugs in the DFS code (e.g. bcc two bytes too short and incorrect uid in PDU).
778 Rewrote much of connection and mount/unmount logic to handle bugs with
779 multiple uses to same share, multiple users to same server etc.
783 Fixed major problem with dentry corruption (missing call to dput)
787 Rewrite of readdir code to fix bug. Various fixes for bigendian machines.
788 Begin adding oplock support. Multiusermount and oplockEnabled flags added to /proc/fs/cifs
789 although corresponding function not fully implemented in the vfs yet
793 Fixed dentry caching bug, misc. cleanup
797 Fixed 2.5 support to handle build and configure changes as well as misc. 2.5 changes. Now can build
798 on current 2.5 beta version (2.5.24) of the Linux kernel as well as on 2.4 Linux kernels.
799 Support for STATUS codes (newer 32 bit NT error codes) added. DFS support begun to be added.
803 Unix extensions (symlink, readlink, hardlink, chmod and some chgrp and chown) implemented
804 and tested against Samba 2.2.5
809 1) Fixed lockrange to be correct (it was one byte too short)
811 2) Fixed GETLK (i.e. the fcntl call to test a range of bytes in a file to see if locked) to correctly
812 show range as locked when there is a conflict with an existing lock.
814 3) default file perms are now 2767 (indicating support for mandatory locks) instead of 777 for directories
815 in most cases. Eventually will offer optional ability to query server for the correct perms.
817 3) Fixed eventual trap when mounting twice to different shares on the same server when the first succeeded
818 but the second one was invalid and failed (the second one was incorrectly disconnecting the tcp and smb
821 4) Fixed error logging of valid mount options
823 5) Removed logging of password field.
825 6) Moved negotiate, treeDisconnect and uloggoffX (only tConx and SessSetup remain in connect.c) to cifssmb.c
826 and cleaned them up and made them more consistent with other cifs functions.
828 7) Server support for Unix extensions is now fully detected and FindFirst is implemented both ways
829 (with or without Unix extensions) but FindNext and QueryPathInfo with the Unix extensions are not completed,
830 nor is the symlink support using the Unix extensions
832 8) Started adding the readlink and follow_link code
