Merge /proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps +info into /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData. Fix oops in rare oops in readdir +(in build_wildcard_path_from_dentry). Fix mknod to pass type field +(block/char/fifo) properly. Remove spurious mount warning log entry when +credentials passed as mount argument. Set major/minor device number in +inode for block and char devices when unix extensions enabled. + +Version 1.19 +------------ +Fix /proc/fs/cifs/Stats and DebugData display to handle larger +amounts of return data. Properly limit requests to MAX_REQ (50 +is the usual maximum active multiplex SMB/CIFS requests per server). +Do not kill cifsd (and thus hurt the other SMB session) when more than one +session to the same server (but with different userids) exists and one +of the two user's smb sessions is being removed while leaving the other. +Do not loop reconnecting in cifsd demultiplex thread when admin +kills the thread without going through unmount. + +Version 1.18 +------------ +Do not rename hardlinked files (since that should be a noop). Flush +cached write behind data when reopening a file after session abend, +except when already in write. Grab per socket sem during reconnect +to avoid oops in sendmsg if overlapping with reconnect. Do not +reset cached inode file size on readdir for files open for write on +client. + + +Version 1.17 +------------ +Update number of blocks in file so du command is happier (in Linux a fake +blocksize of 512 is required for calculating number of blocks in inode). +Fix prepare write of partial pages to read in data from server if possible. +Fix race on tcpStatus field between unmount and reconnection code, causing +cifsd process sometimes to hang around forever. Improve out of memory +checks in cifs_filldir + +Version 1.16 +------------ +Fix incorrect file size in file handle based setattr on big endian hardware. +Fix oops in build_path_from_dentry when out of memory. Add checks for invalid +and closing file structs in writepage/partialpagewrite. Add statistics +for each mounted share (new menuconfig option). Fix endianness problem in +volume information displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData (only affects +affects big endian architectures). Prevent renames while constructing +path names for open, mkdir and rmdir. + +Version 1.15 +------------ +Change to mempools for alloc smb request buffers and multiplex structs +to better handle low memory problems (and potential deadlocks). + +Version 1.14 +------------ +Fix incomplete listings of large directories on Samba servers when Unix +extensions enabled. Fix oops when smb_buffer can not be allocated. Fix +rename deadlock when writing out dirty pages at same time. + +Version 1.13 +------------ +Fix open of files in which O_CREATE can cause the mode to change in +some cases. Fix case in which retry of write overlaps file close. +Fix PPC64 build error. Reduce excessive stack usage in smb password +hashing. Fix overwrite of Linux user's view of file mode to Windows servers. + +Version 1.12 +------------ +Fixes for large file copy, signal handling, socket retry, buffer +allocation and low memory situations. + +Version 1.11 +------------ +Better port 139 support to Windows servers (RFC1001/RFC1002 Session_Initialize) +also now allowing support for specifying client netbiosname. NT4 support added. + +Version 1.10 +------------ +Fix reconnection (and certain failed mounts) to properly wake up the +blocked users thread so it does not seem hung (in some cases was blocked +until the cifs receive timeout expired). Fix spurious error logging +to kernel log when application with open network files killed. + +Version 1.09 +------------ +Fix /proc/fs module unload warning message (that could be logged +to the kernel log). Fix intermittent failure in connectathon +test7 (hardlink count not immediately refreshed in case in which +inode metadata can be incorrectly kept cached when time near zero) + +Version 1.08 +------------ +Allow file_mode and dir_mode (specified at mount time) to be enforced +locally (the server already enforced its own ACLs too) for servers +that do not report the correct mode (do not support the +CIFS Unix Extensions). + +Version 1.07 +------------ +Fix some small memory leaks in some unmount error paths. Fix major leak +of cache pages in readpages causing multiple read oriented stress +testcases (including fsx, and even large file copy) to fail over time. + +Version 1.06 +------------ +Send NTCreateX with ATTR_POSIX if Linux/Unix extensions negotiated with server. +This allows files that differ only in case and improves performance of file +creation and file open to such servers. Fix semaphore conflict which causes +slow delete of open file to Samba (which unfortunately can cause an oplock +break to self while vfs_unlink held i_sem) which can hang for 20 seconds. + +Version 1.05 +------------ +fixes to cifs_readpages for fsx test case + +Version 1.04 +------------ +Fix caching data integrity bug when extending file size especially when no +oplock on file. Fix spurious logging of valid already parsed mount options +that are parsed outside of the cifs vfs such as nosuid. + + +Version 1.03 +------------ +Connect to server when port number override not specified, and tcp port +unitialized. Reset search to restart at correct file when kernel routine +filldir returns error during large directory searches (readdir). + +Version 1.02 +------------ +Fix caching problem when files opened by multiple clients in which +page cache could contain stale data, and write through did +not occur often enough while file was still open when read ahead +(read oplock) not allowed. Treat "sep=" when first mount option +as an overrride of comma as the default separator between mount +options. + +Version 1.01 +------------ +Allow passwords longer than 16 bytes. Allow null password string. + +Version 1.00 +------------ +Gracefully clean up failed mounts when attempting to mount to servers such as +Windows 98 that terminate tcp sessions during prototocol negotiation. Handle +embedded commas in mount parsing of passwords. + +Version 0.99 +------------ +Invalidate local inode cached pages on oplock break and when last file +instance is closed so that the client does not continue using stale local +copy rather than later modified server copy of file. Do not reconnect +when server drops the tcp session prematurely before negotiate +protocol response. Fix oops in roepen_file when dentry freed. Allow +the support for CIFS Unix Extensions to be disabled via proc interface. + +Version 0.98 +------------ +Fix hang in commit_write during reconnection of open files under heavy load. +Fix unload_nls oops in a mount failure path. Serialize writes to same socket +which also fixes any possible races when cifs signatures are enabled in SMBs +being sent out of signature sequence number order. + +Version 0.97 +------------ +Fix byte range locking bug (endian problem) causing bad offset and +length. + +Version 0.96 +------------ +Fix oops (in send_sig) caused by CIFS unmount code trying to +wake up the demultiplex thread after it had exited. Do not log +error on harmless oplock release of closed handle. + +Version 0.95 +------------ +Fix unsafe global variable usage and password hash failure on gcc 3.3.1 +Fix problem reconnecting secondary mounts to same server after session +failure. Fix invalid dentry - race in mkdir when directory gets created +by another client between the lookup and mkdir. + +Version 0.94 +------------ +Fix to list processing in reopen_files. Fix reconnection when server hung +but tcpip session still alive. Set proper timeout on socket read. + +Version 0.93 +------------ +Add missing mount options including iocharset. SMP fixes in write and open. +Fix errors in reconnecting after TCP session failure. Fix module unloading +of default nls codepage + +Version 0.92 +------------ +Active smb transactions should never go negative (fix double FreeXid). Fix +list processing in file routines. Check return code on kmalloc in open. +Fix spinlock usage for SMP. + +Version 0.91 +------------ +Fix oops in reopen_files when invalid dentry. drop dentry on server rename +and on revalidate errors. Fix cases where pid is now tgid. Fix return code +on create hard link when server does not support them. + +Version 0.90 +------------ +Fix scheduling while atomic error in getting inode info on newly created file. +Fix truncate of existing files opened with O_CREAT but not O_TRUNC set. + +Version 0.89 +------------ +Fix oops on write to dead tcp session. Remove error log write for case when file open +O_CREAT but not O_EXCL + +Version 0.88 +------------ +Fix non-POSIX behavior on rename of open file and delete of open file by taking +advantage of trans2 SetFileInfo rename facility if available on target server. +Retry on ENOSPC and EAGAIN socket errors. + +Version 0.87 +------------ +Fix oops on big endian readdir. Set blksize to be even power of two (2**blkbits) to fix +allocation size miscalculation. After oplock token lost do not read through +cache. + +Version 0.86 +------------ +Fix oops on empty file readahead. Fix for file size handling for locally cached files. + +Version 0.85 +------------ +Fix oops in mkdir when server fails to return inode info. Fix oops in reopen_files +during auto reconnection to server after server recovered from failure. + +Version 0.84 +------------ +Finish support for Linux 2.5 open/create changes, which removes the +redundant NTCreate/QPathInfo/close that was sent during file create. +Enable oplock by default. Enable packet signing by default (needed to +access many recent Windows servers) + +Version 0.83 +------------ +Fix oops when mounting to long server names caused by inverted parms to kmalloc. +Fix MultiuserMount (/proc/fs/cifs configuration setting) so that when enabled +we will choose a cifs user session (smb uid) that better matches the local +uid if a) the mount uid does not match the current uid and b) we have another +session to the same server (ip address) for a different mount which +matches the current local uid. + +Version 0.82 +------------ +Add support for mknod of block or character devices. Fix oplock +code (distributed caching) to properly send response to oplock +break from server. + +Version 0.81 +------------ +Finish up CIFS packet digital signing for the default +NTLM security case. This should help Windows 2003 +network interoperability since it is common for +packet signing to be required now. Fix statfs (stat -f) +which recently started returning errors due to +invalid value (-1 instead of 0) being set in the +struct kstatfs f_ffiles field. + +Version 0.80 +----------- +Fix oops on stopping oplock thread when removing cifs when +built as module. + +Version 0.79 +------------ +Fix mount options for ro (readonly), uid, gid and file and directory mode. + +Version 0.78 +------------ +Fix errors displayed on failed mounts to be more understandable. +Fixed various incorrect or misleading smb to posix error code mappings. + +Version 0.77 +------------ +Fix display of NTFS DFS junctions to display as symlinks. +They are the network equivalent. Fix oops in +cifs_partialpagewrite caused by missing spinlock protection +of openfile linked list. Allow writebehind caching errors to +be returned to the application at file close. + +Version 0.76 +------------ +Clean up options displayed in /proc/mounts by show_options to +be more consistent with other filesystems. + +Version 0.75 +------------ +Fix delete of readonly file to Windows servers. Reflect +presence or absence of read only dos attribute in mode +bits for servers that do not support CIFS Unix extensions. +Fix shortened results on readdir of large directories to +servers supporting CIFS Unix extensions (caused by +incorrect resume key). + +Version 0.74 +------------ +Fix truncate bug (set file size) that could cause hangs e.g. running fsx + +Version 0.73 +------------ +unload nls if mount fails. + +Version 0.72 +------------ +Add resume key support to search (readdir) code to workaround +Windows bug. Add /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnable which +allows disabling caching of attribute information for +lookups. + +Version 0.71 +------------ +Add more oplock handling (distributed caching code). Remove +dead code. Remove excessive stack space utilization from +symlink routines. + +Version 0.70 +------------ +Fix oops in get dfs referral (triggered when null path sent in to +mount). Add support for overriding rsize at mount time. + +Version 0.69 +------------ +Fix buffer overrun in readdir which caused intermittent kernel oopses. +Fix writepage code to release kmap on write data. Allow "-ip=" new +mount option to be passed in on parameter distinct from the first part +(server name portion of) the UNC name. Allow override of the +tcp port of the target server via new mount option "-port=" + +Version 0.68 +------------ +Fix search handle leak on rewind. Fix setuid and gid so that they are +reflected in the local inode immediately. Cleanup of whitespace +to make 2.4 and 2.5 versions more consistent. + + +Version 0.67 +------------ +Fix signal sending so that captive thread (cifsd) exits on umount +(which was causing the warning in kmem_cache_free of the request buffers +at rmmod time). This had broken as a sideeffect of the recent global +kernel change to daemonize. Fix memory leak in readdir code which +showed up in "ls -R" (and applications that did search rewinding). + +Version 0.66 +------------ +Reconnect tids and fids after session reconnection (still do not +reconnect byte range locks though). Fix problem caching +lookup information for directory inodes, improving performance, +especially in deep directory trees. Fix various build warnings. + +Version 0.65 +------------ +Finish fixes to commit write for caching/readahead consistency. fsx +now works to Samba servers. Fix oops caused when readahead +was interrupted by a signal. + +Version 0.64 +------------ +Fix data corruption (in partial page after truncate) that caused fsx to +fail to Windows servers. Cleaned up some extraneous error logging in +common error paths. Add generic sendfile support. + +Version 0.63 +------------ +Fix memory leak in AllocMidQEntry. +Finish reconnection logic, so connection with server can be dropped +(or server rebooted) and the cifs client will reconnect. + +Version 0.62 +------------ +Fix temporary socket leak when bad userid or password specified +(or other SMBSessSetup failure). Increase maximum buffer size to slightly +over 16K to allow negotiation of up to Samba and Windows server default read +sizes. Add support for readpages + +Version 0.61 +------------ +Fix oops when username not passed in on mount. Extensive fixes and improvements +to error logging (strip redundant newlines, change debug macros to ensure newline +passed in and to be more consistent). Fix writepage wrong file handle problem, +a readonly file handle could be incorrectly used to attempt to write out +file updates through the page cache to multiply open files. This could cause +the iozone benchmark to fail on the fwrite test. Fix bug mounting two different +shares to the same Windows server when using different usernames +(doing this to Samba servers worked but Windows was rejecting it) - now it is +possible to use different userids when connecting to the same server from a +Linux client. Fix oops when treeDisconnect called during unmount on +previously freed socket. + +Version 0.60 +------------ +Fix oops in readpages caused by not setting address space operations in inode in +rare code path. + +Version 0.59 +------------ +Includes support for deleting of open files and renaming over existing files (per POSIX +requirement). Add readlink support for Windows junction points (directory symlinks). + +Version 0.58 +------------ +Changed read and write to go through pagecache. Added additional address space operations. +Memory mapped operations now working. + +Version 0.57 +------------ +Added writepage code for additional memory mapping support. Fixed leak in xids causing +the simultaneous operations counter (/proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps) to increase on +every stat call. Additional formatting cleanup. + +Version 0.56 +------------ +Fix bigendian bug in order of time conversion. Merge 2.5 to 2.4 version. Formatting cleanup. + +Version 0.55 +------------ +Fixes from Zwane Mwaikambo for adding missing return code checking in a few places. +Also included a modified version of his fix to protect global list manipulation of +the smb session and tree connection and mid related global variables. + +Version 0.54 +------------ +Fix problem with captive thread hanging around at unmount time. Adjust to 2.5.42-pre +changes to superblock layout. Remove wasteful allocation of smb buffers (now the send +buffer is reused for responses). Add more oplock handling. Additional minor cleanup. + +Version 0.53 +------------ +More stylistic updates to better match kernel style. Add additional statistics +for filesystem which can be viewed via /proc/fs/cifs. Add more pieces of NTLMv2 +and CIFS Packet Signing enablement. + +Version 0.52 +------------ +Replace call to sleep_on with safer wait_on_event. +Make stylistic changes to better match kernel style recommendations. +Remove most typedef usage (except for the PDUs themselves). + +Version 0.51 +------------ +Update mount so the -unc mount option is no longer required (the ip address can be specified +in a UNC style device name. Implementation of readpage/writepage started. + +Version 0.50 +------------ +Fix intermittent problem with incorrect smb header checking on badly +fragmented tcp responses + +Version 0.49 +------------ +Fixes to setting of allocation size and file size. + +Version 0.48 +------------ +Various 2.5.38 fixes.

Various fixes for compatibility with older +versions of 2.4 kernel (now builds and works again on kernels at least as early as 2.4.7). + +Version 0.41 +------------ +Various minor fixes for Connectathon Posix "basic" file i/o test suite. Directory caching fixed so hardlinked +files now return the correct rumber of links on fstat as they are repeatedly linked and unlinked. + +Version 0.40 +------------ +Implemented "Raw" (i.e. not encapsulated in SPNEGO) NTLMSSP (i.e. the Security Provider Interface used to negotiate +session advanced session authentication). Raw NTLMSSP is preferred by Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP. +Began implementing support for SPNEGO encapsulation of NTLMSSP based session authentication blobs +(which is the mechanism preferred by Windows 2000 server in the absence of Kerberos). + +Version 0.38 +------------ +Introduced optional mount helper utility mount.cifs and made coreq changes to cifs vfs to enable +it. Fixed a few bugs in the DFS code (e.g. bcc two bytes too short and incorrect uid in PDU). + +Version 0.37 +------------ +Rewrote much of connection and mount/unmount logic to handle bugs with +multiple uses to same share, multiple users to same server etc. + +Version 0.36 +------------ +Fixed major problem with dentry corruption (missing call to dput) + +Version 0.35 +------------ +Rewrite of readdir code to fix bug.

Multiusermount and oplockEnabled flags added to /proc/fs/cifs +although corresponding function not fully implemented in the vfs yet + +Version 0.34 +------------ +Fixed dentry caching bug, misc. cleanup + +Version 0.33 +------------ +Fixed 2.5 support to handle build and configure changes as well as misc. 2.5 changes. Now can build +on current 2.5 beta version (2.5.24) of the Linux kernel as well as on 2.4 Linux kernels. +Support for STATUS codes (newer 32 bit NT error codes) added. DFS support begun to be added. + +Version 0.32 +------------ +Unix extensions (symlink, readlink, hardlink, chmod and some chgrp and chown) implemented +and tested against Samba 2.2.5 + + +Version 0.31 +------------ +1) Fixed lockrange to be correct (it was one byte too short) + +2) Fixed GETLK (i.e. the fcntl call to test a range of bytes in a file to see if locked) to correctly +show range as locked when there is a conflict with an existing lock. + +3) default file perms are now 2767 (indicating support for mandatory locks) instead of 777 for directories +in most cases. Eventually will offer optional ability to query server for the correct perms. + +3) Fixed eventual trap when mounting twice to different shares on the same server when the first succeeded +but the second one was invalid and failed (the second one was incorrectly disconnecting the tcp and smb +session) + +4) Fixed error logging of valid mount options + +5) Removed logging of password field. + +6) Moved negotiate, treeDisconnect and uloggoffX (only tConx and SessSetup remain in connect.c) to cifssmb.c +and cleaned them up and made them more consistent with other cifs functions. + +7) Server support for Unix extensions is now fully detected and FindFirst is implemented both ways +(with or without Unix exentions) but FindNext and QueryPathInfo with the Unix extensions are not completed, +nor is the symlink support using the Unix extensions + +8) Started adding the readlink and follow_link code + +Version 0.3 +----------- +Initial drop + |
