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