3 Fix slow oplock break when mounted to different servers at the same time and
4 the tids match and we try to find matching fid on wrong server.
8 Fix NTLMv2 security (can be enabled in /proc/fs/cifs) so customers can
9 configure stronger authentication. Fix sfu symlinks so they can
10 be followed (not just recognized). Fix wraparound of bcc on
11 read responses when buffer size over 64K and also fix wrap of
12 max smb buffer size when CIFSMaxBufSize over 64K. Fix oops in
13 cifs_user_read and cifs_readpages (when EAGAIN on send of smb
14 on socket is returned over and over). Add POSIX (advisory) byte range
15 locking support (requires server with newest CIFS UNIX Extensions
16 to the protocol implemented). Slow down negprot slightly in port 139
17 RFC1001 case to give session_init time on buggy servers.
21 Use fsuid (fsgid) more consistently instead of uid (gid). Improve performance
22 of readpages by eliminating one extra memcpy. Allow update of file size
23 from remote server even if file is open for write as long as mount is
24 directio. Recognize share mode security and send NTLM encrypted password
25 on tree connect if share mode negotiated.
29 Defer close of a file handle slightly if pending writes depend on that handle
30 (this reduces the EBADF bad file handle errors that can be logged under heavy
31 stress on writes). Modify cifs Kconfig options to expose CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2
32 Fix SFU style symlinks and mknod needed for servers which do not support the
33 CIFS Unix Extensions. Fix setfacl/getfacl on bigendian. Timeout negative
34 dentries so files that the client sees as deleted but that later get created
35 on the server will be recognized. Add client side permission check on setattr.
36 Timeout stuck requests better (where server has never responded or sent corrupt
41 Fix tcp socket retransmission timeouts (e.g. on ENOSPACE from the socket)
42 to be smaller at first (but increasing) so large write performance performance
43 over GigE is better. Do not hang thread on illegal byte range lock response
44 from Windows (Windows can send an RFC1001 size which does not match smb size) by
45 allowing an SMBs TCP length to be up to a few bytes longer than it should be.
46 wsize and rsize can now be larger than negotiated buffer size if server
47 supports large readx/writex, even when directio mount flag not specified.
48 Write size will in many cases now be 16K instead of 4K which greatly helps
49 file copy performance on lightly loaded networks. Fix oops in dnotify
50 when experimental config flag enabled. Make cifsFYI more granular.
54 Fix readdir caching when unlink removes file in current search buffer,
55 and this is followed by a rewind search to just before the deleted entry.
56 Do not attempt to set ctime unless atime and/or mtime change requested
57 (most servers throw it away anyway). Fix length check of received smbs
58 to be more accurate. Fix big endian problem with mapchars mount option,
59 and with a field returned by statfs.
63 Add support for mounting to older pre-CIFS servers such as Windows9x and ME.
64 For these older servers, add option for passing netbios name of server in
65 on mount (servernetbiosname). Add suspend support for power management, to
66 avoid cifsd thread preventing software suspend from working.
67 Add mount option for disabling the default behavior of sending byte range lock
68 requests to the server (necessary for certain applications which break with
69 mandatory lock behavior such as Evolution), and also mount option for
70 requesting case insensitive matching for path based requests (requesting
71 case sensitive is the default).
75 Add writepage performance improvements. Fix path name conversions
76 for long filenames on mounts which were done with "mapchars" mount option
77 specified. Ensure multiplex ids do not collide. Fix case in which
78 rmmod can oops if done soon after last unmount. Fix truncated
79 search (readdir) output when resume filename was a long filename.
80 Fix filename conversion when mapchars mount option was specified and
81 filename was a long filename.
85 Fix error mapping of the TOO_MANY_LINKS (hardlinks) case.
86 Do not oops if root user kills cifs oplock kernel thread or
87 kills the cifsd thread (NB: killing the cifs kernel threads is not
88 recommended, unmount and rmmod cifs will kill them when they are
89 no longer needed). Fix readdir to ASCII servers (ie older servers
90 which do not support Unicode) and also require asterisk.
91 Fix out of memory case in which data could be written one page
92 off in the page cache.
96 Fix caching problem, in which readdir of directory containing a file
97 which was cached could cause the file's time stamp to be updated
98 without invalidating the readahead data (so we could get stale
99 file data on the client for that file even as the server copy changed).
100 Cleanup response processing so cifsd can not loop when abnormally
106 Fix oops in ls when Transact2 FindFirst (or FindNext) returns more than one
107 transact response for an SMB request and search entry split across two frames.
108 Add support for lsattr (getting ext2/ext3/reiserfs attr flags from the server)
109 as new protocol extensions. Do not send Get/Set calls for POSIX ACLs
110 unless server explicitly claims to support them in CIFS Unix extensions
111 POSIX ACL capability bit. Fix packet signing when multiuser mounting with
112 different users from the same client to the same server. Fix oops in
113 cifs_close. Add mount option for remapping reserved characters in
114 filenames (also allow recognizing files with created by SFU which have any
115 of these seven reserved characters, except backslash, to be recognized).
116 Fix invalid transact2 message (we were sometimes trying to interpret
117 oplock breaks as SMB responses). Add ioctl for checking that the
118 current uid matches the uid of the mounter (needed by umount.cifs).
119 Reduce the number of large buffer allocations in cifs response processing
120 (significantly reduces memory pressure under heavy stress with multiple
121 processes accessing the same server at the same time).
125 Fix updates of DOS attributes and time fields so that files on NT4 servers
126 do not get marked delete on close. Display sizes of cifs buffer pools in
127 cifs stats. Fix oops in unmount when cifsd thread being killed by
128 shutdown. Add generic readv/writev and aio support. Report inode numbers
129 consistently in readdir and lookup (when serverino mount option is
130 specified use the inode number that the server reports - for both lookup
131 and readdir, otherwise by default the locally generated inode number is used
132 for inodes created in either path since servers are not always able to
133 provide unique inode numbers when exporting multiple volumes from under one
138 Allow new nouser_xattr mount parm to disable xattr support for user namespace.
139 Do not flag user_xattr mount parm in dmesg. Retry failures setting file time
140 (mostly affects NT4 servers) by retry with handle based network operation.
141 Add new POSIX Query FS Info for returning statfs info more accurately.
142 Handle passwords with multiple commas in them.
146 Fix default mode in sysfs of cifs module parms. Remove old readdir routine.
147 Fix capabilities flags for large readx so as to allow reads larger than 64K.
151 Add module init parm for large SMB buffer size (to allow it to be changed
152 from its default of 16K) which is especially useful for large file copy
153 when mounting with the directio mount option. Fix oops after
154 returning from mount when experimental ExtendedSecurity enabled and
155 SpnegoNegotiated returning invalid error. Fix case to retry better when
156 peek returns from 1 to 3 bytes on socket which should have more data.
157 Fixed path based calls (such as cifs lookup) to handle path names
158 longer than 530 (now can handle PATH_MAX). Fix pass through authentication
159 from Samba server to DC (Samba required dummy LM password).
163 Turn off DNOTIFY (directory change notification support) by default
164 (unless built with the experimental flag) to fix hang with KDE
165 file browser. Fix DNOTIFY flag mappings. Fix hang (in wait_event
166 waiting on an SMB response) in SendReceive when session dies but
167 reconnects quickly from another task. Add module init parms for
168 minimum number of large and small network buffers in the buffer pools,
169 and for the maximum number of simultaneous requests.
173 Add setfacl support to allow setting of ACLs remotely to Samba 3.10 and later
174 and other POSIX CIFS compliant servers. Fix error mapping for getfacl
175 to EOPNOTSUPP when server does not support posix acls on the wire. Fix
176 improperly zeroed buffer in CIFS Unix extensions set times call.
180 Fix internationalization problem in cifs readdir with filenames that map to
181 longer UTF-8 strings than the string on the wire was in Unicode. Add workaround
182 for readdir to netapp servers. Fix search rewind (seek into readdir to return
183 non-consecutive entries). Do not do readdir when server negotiates
184 buffer size to small to fit filename. Add support for reading POSIX ACLs from
185 the server (add also acl and noacl mount options).
189 Optionally allow using server side inode numbers, rather than client generated
190 ones by specifying mount option "serverino" - this is required for some apps
191 to work which double check hardlinked files and have persistent inode numbers.
195 Multiple bigendian fixes. On little endian systems (for reconnect after
196 network failure) fix tcp session reconnect code so we do not try first
197 to reconnect on reverse of port 445. Treat reparse points (NTFS junctions)
198 as directories rather than symlinks because we can do follow link on them.
202 Add config option to enable XATTR (extended attribute) support, mapping
203 xattr names in the "user." namespace space to SMB/CIFS EAs. Lots of
204 minor fixes pointed out by the Stanford SWAT checker (mostly missing
205 or out of order NULL pointer checks in little used error paths).
209 Add new mount parm to control whether mode check (generic_permission) is done
210 on the client. If Unix extensions are enabled and the uids on the client
211 and server do not match, client permission checks are meaningless on
212 server uids that do not exist on the client (this does not affect the
213 normal ACL check which occurs on the server). Fix default uid
214 on mknod to match create and mkdir. Add optional mount parm to allow
215 override of the default uid behavior (in which the server sets the uid
216 and gid of newly created files). Normally for network filesystem mounts
217 user want the server to set the uid/gid on newly created files (rather than
218 using uid of the client processes you would in a local filesystem).
222 Make transaction counts more consistent. Merge /proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps
223 info into /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData. Fix oops in rare oops in readdir
224 (in build_wildcard_path_from_dentry). Fix mknod to pass type field
225 (block/char/fifo) properly. Remove spurious mount warning log entry when
226 credentials passed as mount argument. Set major/minor device number in
227 inode for block and char devices when unix extensions enabled.
231 Fix /proc/fs/cifs/Stats and DebugData display to handle larger
232 amounts of return data. Properly limit requests to MAX_REQ (50
233 is the usual maximum active multiplex SMB/CIFS requests per server).
234 Do not kill cifsd (and thus hurt the other SMB session) when more than one
235 session to the same server (but with different userids) exists and one
236 of the two user's smb sessions is being removed while leaving the other.
237 Do not loop reconnecting in cifsd demultiplex thread when admin
238 kills the thread without going through unmount.
242 Do not rename hardlinked files (since that should be a noop). Flush
243 cached write behind data when reopening a file after session abend,
244 except when already in write. Grab per socket sem during reconnect
245 to avoid oops in sendmsg if overlapping with reconnect. Do not
246 reset cached inode file size on readdir for files open for write on
252 Update number of blocks in file so du command is happier (in Linux a fake
253 blocksize of 512 is required for calculating number of blocks in inode).
254 Fix prepare write of partial pages to read in data from server if possible.
255 Fix race on tcpStatus field between unmount and reconnection code, causing
256 cifsd process sometimes to hang around forever. Improve out of memory
257 checks in cifs_filldir
261 Fix incorrect file size in file handle based setattr on big endian hardware.
262 Fix oops in build_path_from_dentry when out of memory. Add checks for invalid
263 and closing file structs in writepage/partialpagewrite. Add statistics
264 for each mounted share (new menuconfig option). Fix endianness problem in
265 volume information displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData (only affects
266 affects big endian architectures). Prevent renames while constructing
267 path names for open, mkdir and rmdir.
271 Change to mempools for alloc smb request buffers and multiplex structs
272 to better handle low memory problems (and potential deadlocks).
276 Fix incomplete listings of large directories on Samba servers when Unix
277 extensions enabled. Fix oops when smb_buffer can not be allocated. Fix
278 rename deadlock when writing out dirty pages at same time.
282 Fix open of files in which O_CREATE can cause the mode to change in
283 some cases. Fix case in which retry of write overlaps file close.
284 Fix PPC64 build error. Reduce excessive stack usage in smb password
285 hashing. Fix overwrite of Linux user's view of file mode to Windows servers.
289 Fixes for large file copy, signal handling, socket retry, buffer
290 allocation and low memory situations.
294 Better port 139 support to Windows servers (RFC1001/RFC1002 Session_Initialize)
295 also now allowing support for specifying client netbiosname. NT4 support added.
299 Fix reconnection (and certain failed mounts) to properly wake up the
300 blocked users thread so it does not seem hung (in some cases was blocked
301 until the cifs receive timeout expired). Fix spurious error logging
302 to kernel log when application with open network files killed.
306 Fix /proc/fs module unload warning message (that could be logged
307 to the kernel log). Fix intermittent failure in connectathon
308 test7 (hardlink count not immediately refreshed in case in which
309 inode metadata can be incorrectly kept cached when time near zero)
313 Allow file_mode and dir_mode (specified at mount time) to be enforced
314 locally (the server already enforced its own ACLs too) for servers
315 that do not report the correct mode (do not support the
316 CIFS Unix Extensions).
320 Fix some small memory leaks in some unmount error paths. Fix major leak
321 of cache pages in readpages causing multiple read oriented stress
322 testcases (including fsx, and even large file copy) to fail over time.
326 Send NTCreateX with ATTR_POSIX if Linux/Unix extensions negotiated with server.
327 This allows files that differ only in case and improves performance of file
328 creation and file open to such servers. Fix semaphore conflict which causes
329 slow delete of open file to Samba (which unfortunately can cause an oplock
330 break to self while vfs_unlink held i_sem) which can hang for 20 seconds.
334 fixes to cifs_readpages for fsx test case
338 Fix caching data integrity bug when extending file size especially when no
339 oplock on file. Fix spurious logging of valid already parsed mount options
340 that are parsed outside of the cifs vfs such as nosuid.
345 Connect to server when port number override not specified, and tcp port
346 unitialized. Reset search to restart at correct file when kernel routine
347 filldir returns error during large directory searches (readdir).
351 Fix caching problem when files opened by multiple clients in which
352 page cache could contain stale data, and write through did
353 not occur often enough while file was still open when read ahead
354 (read oplock) not allowed. Treat "sep=" when first mount option
355 as an override of comma as the default separator between mount
360 Allow passwords longer than 16 bytes. Allow null password string.
364 Gracefully clean up failed mounts when attempting to mount to servers such as
365 Windows 98 that terminate tcp sessions during protocol negotiation. Handle
366 embedded commas in mount parsing of passwords.
370 Invalidate local inode cached pages on oplock break and when last file
371 instance is closed so that the client does not continue using stale local
372 copy rather than later modified server copy of file. Do not reconnect
373 when server drops the tcp session prematurely before negotiate
374 protocol response. Fix oops in reopen_file when dentry freed. Allow
375 the support for CIFS Unix Extensions to be disabled via proc interface.
379 Fix hang in commit_write during reconnection of open files under heavy load.
380 Fix unload_nls oops in a mount failure path. Serialize writes to same socket
381 which also fixes any possible races when cifs signatures are enabled in SMBs
382 being sent out of signature sequence number order.
386 Fix byte range locking bug (endian problem) causing bad offset and
391 Fix oops (in send_sig) caused by CIFS unmount code trying to
392 wake up the demultiplex thread after it had exited. Do not log
393 error on harmless oplock release of closed handle.
397 Fix unsafe global variable usage and password hash failure on gcc 3.3.1
398 Fix problem reconnecting secondary mounts to same server after session
399 failure. Fix invalid dentry - race in mkdir when directory gets created
400 by another client between the lookup and mkdir.
404 Fix to list processing in reopen_files. Fix reconnection when server hung
405 but tcpip session still alive. Set proper timeout on socket read.
409 Add missing mount options including iocharset. SMP fixes in write and open.
410 Fix errors in reconnecting after TCP session failure. Fix module unloading
411 of default nls codepage
415 Active smb transactions should never go negative (fix double FreeXid). Fix
416 list processing in file routines. Check return code on kmalloc in open.
417 Fix spinlock usage for SMP.
421 Fix oops in reopen_files when invalid dentry. drop dentry on server rename
422 and on revalidate errors. Fix cases where pid is now tgid. Fix return code
423 on create hard link when server does not support them.
427 Fix scheduling while atomic error in getting inode info on newly created file.
428 Fix truncate of existing files opened with O_CREAT but not O_TRUNC set.
432 Fix oops on write to dead tcp session. Remove error log write for case when file open
433 O_CREAT but not O_EXCL
437 Fix non-POSIX behavior on rename of open file and delete of open file by taking
438 advantage of trans2 SetFileInfo rename facility if available on target server.
439 Retry on ENOSPC and EAGAIN socket errors.
443 Fix oops on big endian readdir. Set blksize to be even power of two (2**blkbits) to fix
444 allocation size miscalculation. After oplock token lost do not read through
449 Fix oops on empty file readahead. Fix for file size handling for locally cached files.
453 Fix oops in mkdir when server fails to return inode info. Fix oops in reopen_files
454 during auto reconnection to server after server recovered from failure.
458 Finish support for Linux 2.5 open/create changes, which removes the
459 redundant NTCreate/QPathInfo/close that was sent during file create.
460 Enable oplock by default. Enable packet signing by default (needed to
461 access many recent Windows servers)
465 Fix oops when mounting to long server names caused by inverted parms to kmalloc.
466 Fix MultiuserMount (/proc/fs/cifs configuration setting) so that when enabled
467 we will choose a cifs user session (smb uid) that better matches the local
468 uid if a) the mount uid does not match the current uid and b) we have another
469 session to the same server (ip address) for a different mount which
470 matches the current local uid.
474 Add support for mknod of block or character devices. Fix oplock
475 code (distributed caching) to properly send response to oplock
480 Finish up CIFS packet digital signing for the default
481 NTLM security case. This should help Windows 2003
482 network interoperability since it is common for
483 packet signing to be required now. Fix statfs (stat -f)
484 which recently started returning errors due to
485 invalid value (-1 instead of 0) being set in the
486 struct kstatfs f_ffiles field.
490 Fix oops on stopping oplock thread when removing cifs when
495 Fix mount options for ro (readonly), uid, gid and file and directory mode.
499 Fix errors displayed on failed mounts to be more understandable.
500 Fixed various incorrect or misleading smb to posix error code mappings.
504 Fix display of NTFS DFS junctions to display as symlinks.
505 They are the network equivalent. Fix oops in
506 cifs_partialpagewrite caused by missing spinlock protection
507 of openfile linked list. Allow writebehind caching errors to
508 be returned to the application at file close.
512 Clean up options displayed in /proc/mounts by show_options to
513 be more consistent with other filesystems.
517 Fix delete of readonly file to Windows servers. Reflect
518 presence or absence of read only dos attribute in mode
519 bits for servers that do not support CIFS Unix extensions.
520 Fix shortened results on readdir of large directories to
521 servers supporting CIFS Unix extensions (caused by
522 incorrect resume key).
526 Fix truncate bug (set file size) that could cause hangs e.g. running fsx
530 unload nls if mount fails.
534 Add resume key support to search (readdir) code to workaround
535 Windows bug. Add /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnable which
536 allows disabling caching of attribute information for
541 Add more oplock handling (distributed caching code). Remove
542 dead code. Remove excessive stack space utilization from
547 Fix oops in get dfs referral (triggered when null path sent in to
548 mount). Add support for overriding rsize at mount time.
552 Fix buffer overrun in readdir which caused intermittent kernel oopses.
553 Fix writepage code to release kmap on write data. Allow "-ip=" new
554 mount option to be passed in on parameter distinct from the first part
555 (server name portion of) the UNC name. Allow override of the
556 tcp port of the target server via new mount option "-port="
560 Fix search handle leak on rewind. Fix setuid and gid so that they are
561 reflected in the local inode immediately. Cleanup of whitespace
562 to make 2.4 and 2.5 versions more consistent.
567 Fix signal sending so that captive thread (cifsd) exits on umount
568 (which was causing the warning in kmem_cache_free of the request buffers
569 at rmmod time). This had broken as a sideeffect of the recent global
570 kernel change to daemonize. Fix memory leak in readdir code which
571 showed up in "ls -R" (and applications that did search rewinding).
575 Reconnect tids and fids after session reconnection (still do not
576 reconnect byte range locks though). Fix problem caching
577 lookup information for directory inodes, improving performance,
578 especially in deep directory trees. Fix various build warnings.
582 Finish fixes to commit write for caching/readahead consistency. fsx
583 now works to Samba servers. Fix oops caused when readahead
584 was interrupted by a signal.
588 Fix data corruption (in partial page after truncate) that caused fsx to
589 fail to Windows servers. Cleaned up some extraneous error logging in
590 common error paths. Add generic sendfile support.
594 Fix memory leak in AllocMidQEntry.
595 Finish reconnection logic, so connection with server can be dropped
596 (or server rebooted) and the cifs client will reconnect.
600 Fix temporary socket leak when bad userid or password specified
601 (or other SMBSessSetup failure). Increase maximum buffer size to slightly
602 over 16K to allow negotiation of up to Samba and Windows server default read
603 sizes. Add support for readpages
607 Fix oops when username not passed in on mount. Extensive fixes and improvements
608 to error logging (strip redundant newlines, change debug macros to ensure newline
609 passed in and to be more consistent). Fix writepage wrong file handle problem,
610 a readonly file handle could be incorrectly used to attempt to write out
611 file updates through the page cache to multiply open files. This could cause
612 the iozone benchmark to fail on the fwrite test. Fix bug mounting two different
613 shares to the same Windows server when using different usernames
614 (doing this to Samba servers worked but Windows was rejecting it) - now it is
615 possible to use different userids when connecting to the same server from a
616 Linux client. Fix oops when treeDisconnect called during unmount on
617 previously freed socket.
621 Fix oops in readpages caused by not setting address space operations in inode in
626 Includes support for deleting of open files and renaming over existing files (per POSIX
627 requirement). Add readlink support for Windows junction points (directory symlinks).
631 Changed read and write to go through pagecache. Added additional address space operations.
632 Memory mapped operations now working.
636 Added writepage code for additional memory mapping support. Fixed leak in xids causing
637 the simultaneous operations counter (/proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps) to increase on
638 every stat call. Additional formatting cleanup.
642 Fix bigendian bug in order of time conversion. Merge 2.5 to 2.4 version. Formatting cleanup.
646 Fixes from Zwane Mwaikambo for adding missing return code checking in a few places.
647 Also included a modified version of his fix to protect global list manipulation of
648 the smb session and tree connection and mid related global variables.
652 Fix problem with captive thread hanging around at unmount time. Adjust to 2.5.42-pre
653 changes to superblock layout. Remove wasteful allocation of smb buffers (now the send
654 buffer is reused for responses). Add more oplock handling. Additional minor cleanup.
658 More stylistic updates to better match kernel style. Add additional statistics
659 for filesystem which can be viewed via /proc/fs/cifs. Add more pieces of NTLMv2
660 and CIFS Packet Signing enablement.
664 Replace call to sleep_on with safer wait_on_event.
665 Make stylistic changes to better match kernel style recommendations.
666 Remove most typedef usage (except for the PDUs themselves).
670 Update mount so the -unc mount option is no longer required (the ip address can be specified
671 in a UNC style device name. Implementation of readpage/writepage started.
675 Fix intermittent problem with incorrect smb header checking on badly
676 fragmented tcp responses
680 Fixes to setting of allocation size and file size.
684 Various 2.5.38 fixes. Now works on 2.5.38
688 Prepare for 2.5 kernel merge. Remove ifdefs.
692 Socket buffer management fixes. Fix dual free.
696 Various big endian fixes for hardlinks and symlinks and also for dfs.
700 Various big endian fixes for servers with Unix extensions such as Samba
704 Various FindNext fixes for incorrect filenames on large directory searches on big endian
705 clients. basic posix file i/o tests now work on big endian machines, not just le
709 SessionSetup and NegotiateProtocol now work from Big Endian machines.
710 Various Big Endian fixes found during testing on the Linux on 390. Various fixes for compatibility with older
711 versions of 2.4 kernel (now builds and works again on kernels at least as early as 2.4.7).
715 Various minor fixes for Connectathon Posix "basic" file i/o test suite. Directory caching fixed so hardlinked
716 files now return the correct number of links on fstat as they are repeatedly linked and unlinked.
720 Implemented "Raw" (i.e. not encapsulated in SPNEGO) NTLMSSP (i.e. the Security Provider Interface used to negotiate
721 session advanced session authentication). Raw NTLMSSP is preferred by Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP.
722 Began implementing support for SPNEGO encapsulation of NTLMSSP based session authentication blobs
723 (which is the mechanism preferred by Windows 2000 server in the absence of Kerberos).
727 Introduced optional mount helper utility mount.cifs and made coreq changes to cifs vfs to enable
728 it. Fixed a few bugs in the DFS code (e.g. bcc two bytes too short and incorrect uid in PDU).
732 Rewrote much of connection and mount/unmount logic to handle bugs with
733 multiple uses to same share, multiple users to same server etc.
737 Fixed major problem with dentry corruption (missing call to dput)
741 Rewrite of readdir code to fix bug. Various fixes for bigendian machines.
742 Begin adding oplock support. Multiusermount and oplockEnabled flags added to /proc/fs/cifs
743 although corresponding function not fully implemented in the vfs yet
747 Fixed dentry caching bug, misc. cleanup
751 Fixed 2.5 support to handle build and configure changes as well as misc. 2.5 changes. Now can build
752 on current 2.5 beta version (2.5.24) of the Linux kernel as well as on 2.4 Linux kernels.
753 Support for STATUS codes (newer 32 bit NT error codes) added. DFS support begun to be added.
757 Unix extensions (symlink, readlink, hardlink, chmod and some chgrp and chown) implemented
758 and tested against Samba 2.2.5
763 1) Fixed lockrange to be correct (it was one byte too short)
765 2) Fixed GETLK (i.e. the fcntl call to test a range of bytes in a file to see if locked) to correctly
766 show range as locked when there is a conflict with an existing lock.
768 3) default file perms are now 2767 (indicating support for mandatory locks) instead of 777 for directories
769 in most cases. Eventually will offer optional ability to query server for the correct perms.
771 3) Fixed eventual trap when mounting twice to different shares on the same server when the first succeeded
772 but the second one was invalid and failed (the second one was incorrectly disconnecting the tcp and smb
775 4) Fixed error logging of valid mount options
777 5) Removed logging of password field.
779 6) Moved negotiate, treeDisconnect and uloggoffX (only tConx and SessSetup remain in connect.c) to cifssmb.c
780 and cleaned them up and made them more consistent with other cifs functions.
782 7) Server support for Unix extensions is now fully detected and FindFirst is implemented both ways
783 (with or without Unix extensions) but FindNext and QueryPathInfo with the Unix extensions are not completed,
784 nor is the symlink support using the Unix extensions
786 8) Started adding the readlink and follow_link code
