Fix oops in DFS mount error path. +Set s_maxbytes to smaller (the max that vfs can handle) so that +sendfile will now work over cifs mounts again. Add noforcegid +and noforceuid mount parameters.

Fix 2nd mount to same server but with different port to +be allowed (rather than reusing the 1st port) - only when the +user explicitly overrides the port on the 2nd mount. + +Version 1.59 +------------ +Client uses server inode numbers (which are persistent) rather than +client generated ones by default (mount option "serverino" turned +on by default if server supports it). Add forceuid and forcegid +mount options (so that when negotiating unix extensions specifying +which uid mounted does not immediately force the server's reported +uids to be overridden). Add support for scope mount parm. Improve +hard link detection to use same inode for both. Do not set +read-only dos attribute on directories (for chmod) since Windows +explorer special cases this attribute bit for directories for +a different purpose. + +Version 1.58 +------------ +Guard against buffer overruns in various UCS-2 to UTF-8 string conversions +when the UTF-8 string is composed of unusually long (more than 4 byte) converted +characters. Add support for mounting root of a share which redirects immediately +to DFS target. Convert string conversion functions from Unicode to more +accurately mark string length before allocating memory (which may help the +rare cases where a UTF-8 string is much larger than the UCS2 string that +we converted from). Fix endianness of the vcnum field used during +session setup to distinguish multiple mounts to same server from different +userids. Raw NTLMSSP fixed (it requires /proc/fs/cifs/experimental +flag to be set to 2, and mount must enable krb5 to turn on extended security). +Performance of file create to Samba improved (posix create on lookup +removes 1 of 2 network requests sent on file create) + +Version 1.57 +------------ +Improve support for multiple security contexts to the same server. We +used to use the same "vcnumber" for all connections which could cause +the server to treat subsequent connections, especially those that +are authenticated as guest, as reconnections, invalidating the earlier +user's smb session. This fix allows cifs to mount multiple times to the +same server with different userids without risking invalidating earlier +established security contexts. fsync now sends SMB Flush operation +to better ensure that we wait for server to write all of the data to +server disk (not just write it over the network). Add new mount +parameter to allow user to disable sending the (slow) SMB flush on +fsync if desired (fsync still flushes all cached write data to the server). +Posix file open support added (turned off after one attempt if server +fails to support it properly, as with Samba server versions prior to 3.3.2) +Fix "redzone overwritten" bug in cifs_put_tcon (CIFSTcon may allocate too +little memory for the "nativeFileSystem" field returned by the server +during mount). Endian convert inode numbers if necessary (makes it easier +to compare inode numbers on network files from big endian systems). + +Version 1.56 +------------ +Add "forcemandatorylock" mount option to allow user to use mandatory +rather than posix (advisory) byte range locks, even though server would +support posix byte range locks. Fix query of root inode when prefixpath +specified and user does not have access to query information about the +top of the share. Fix problem in 2.6.28 resolving DFS paths to +Samba servers (worked to Windows). Fix rmdir so that pending search +(readdir) requests do not get invalid results which include the now +removed directory. Fix oops in cifs_dfs_ref.c when prefixpath is not reachable +when using DFS. Add better file create support to servers which support +the CIFS POSIX protocol extensions (this adds support for new flags +on create, and improves semantics for write of locked ranges). + +Version 1.55 +------------ +Various fixes to make delete of open files behavior more predictable +(when delete of an open file fails we mark the file as "delete-on-close" +in a way that more servers accept, but only if we can first rename the +file to a temporary name). Add experimental support for more safely +handling fcntl(F_SETLEASE). Convert cifs to using blocking tcp +sends, and also let tcp autotune the socket send and receive buffers. +This reduces the number of EAGAIN errors returned by TCP/IP in +high stress workloads (and the number of retries on socket writes +when sending large SMBWriteX requests). Fix case in which a portion of +data can in some cases not get written to the file on the server before the +file is closed. Fix DFS parsing to properly handle path consumed field, +and to handle certain codepage conversions better. Fix mount and +umount race that can cause oops in mount or umount or reconnect. + +Version 1.54 +------------ +Fix premature write failure on congested networks (we would give up +on EAGAIN from the socket too quickly on large writes). +Cifs_mkdir and cifs_create now respect the setgid bit on parent dir. +Fix endian problems in acl (mode from/to cifs acl) on bigendian +architectures. Fix problems with preserving timestamps on copying open +files (e.g. "cp -a") to Windows servers. For mkdir and create honor setgid bit +on parent directory when server supports Unix Extensions but not POSIX +create. Update cifs.upcall version to handle new Kerberos sec flags +(this requires update of cifs.upcall program from Samba). Fix memory leak +on dns_upcall (resolving DFS referralls). Fix plain text password +authentication (requires setting SecurityFlags to 0x30030 to enable +lanman and plain text though). Fix writes to be at correct offset when +file is open with O_APPEND and file is on a directio (forcediretio) mount. +Fix bug in rewinding readdir directory searches. Add nodfs mount option. + +Version 1.53 +------------ +DFS support added (Microsoft Distributed File System client support needed +for referrals which enable a hierarchical name space among servers). +Disable temporary caching of mode bits to servers which do not support +storing of mode (e.g. Windows servers, when client mounts without cifsacl +mount option) and add new "dynperm" mount option to enable temporary caching +of mode (enable old behavior). Fix hang on mount caused when server crashes +tcp session during negotiate protocol. + +Version 1.52 +------------ +Fix oops on second mount to server when null auth is used. +Enable experimental Kerberos support. Return writebehind errors on flush +and sync so that events like out of disk space get reported properly on +cached files. Fix setxattr failure to certain Samba versions. Fix mount +of second share to disconnected server session (autoreconnect on this). +Add ability to modify cifs acls for handling chmod (when mounted with +cifsacl flag). Fix prefixpath path separator so we can handle mounts +with prefixpaths longer than one directory (one path component) when +mounted to Windows servers. Fix slow file open when cifsacl +enabled. Fix memory leak in FindNext when the SMB call returns -EBADF. + + +Version 1.51 +------------ +Fix memory leak in statfs when mounted to very old servers (e.g. +Windows 9x). Add new feature "POSIX open" which allows servers +which support the current POSIX Extensions to provide better semantics +(e.g. delete for open files opened with posix open). Take into +account umask on posix mkdir not just older style mkdir. Add +ability to mount to IPC$ share (which allows CIFS named pipes to be +opened, read and written as if they were files). When 1st tree +connect fails (e.g. due to signing negotiation failure) fix +leak that causes cifsd not to stop and rmmod to fail to cleanup +cifs_request_buffers pool. Fix problem with POSIX Open/Mkdir on +bigendian architectures. Fix possible memory corruption when +EAGAIN returned on kern_recvmsg. Return better error if server +requires packet signing but client has disabled it. When mounted +with cifsacl mount option - mode bits are approximated based +on the contents of the ACL of the file or directory. When cifs +mount helper is missing convert make sure that UNC name +has backslash (not forward slash) between ip address of server +and the share name. + +Version 1.50 +------------ +Fix NTLMv2 signing. NFS server mounted over cifs works (if cifs mount is +done with "serverino" mount option). Add support for POSIX Unlink +(helps with certain sharing violation cases when server such as +Samba supports newer POSIX CIFS Protocol Extensions). Add "nounix" +mount option to allow disabling the CIFS Unix Extensions for just +that mount. Fix hang on spinlock in find_writable_file (race when +reopening file after session crash). Byte range unlock request to +windows server could unlock more bytes (on server copy of file) +than intended if start of unlock request is well before start of +a previous byte range lock that we issued. + +Version 1.49 +------------ +IPv6 support. Enable ipv6 addresses to be passed on mount (put the ipv6 +address after the "ip=" mount option, at least until mount.cifs is fixed to +handle DNS host to ipv6 name translation). Accept override of uid or gid +on mount even when Unix Extensions are negotiated (it used to be ignored +when Unix Extensions were ignored). This allows users to override the +default uid and gid for files when they are certain that the uids or +gids on the server do not match those of the client. Make "sec=none" +mount override username (so that null user connection is attempted) +to match what documentation said. Support for very large reads, over 127K, +available to some newer servers (such as Samba 3.0.26 and later but +note that it also requires setting CIFSMaxBufSize at module install +time to a larger value which may hurt performance in some cases). +Make sign option force signing (or fail if server does not support it). + +Version 1.48 +------------ +Fix mtime bouncing around from local idea of last write times to remote time. +Fix hang (in i_size_read) when simultaneous size update of same remote file +on smp system corrupts sequence number. Do not reread unnecessarily partial page +(which we are about to overwrite anyway) when writing out file opened rw. +When DOS attribute of file on non-Unix server's file changes on the server side +from read-only back to read-write, reflect this change in default file mode +(we had been leaving a file's mode read-only until the inode were reloaded). +Allow setting of attribute back to ATTR_NORMAL (removing readonly dos attribute +when archive dos attribute not set and we are changing mode back to writeable +on server which does not support the Unix Extensions). Remove read only dos +attribute on chmod when adding any write permission (ie on any of +user/group/other (not all of user/group/other ie 0222) when +mounted to windows. Add support for POSIX MkDir (slight performance +enhancement and eliminates the network race between the mkdir and set +path info of the mode). + + +Version 1.47 +------------ +Fix oops in list_del during mount caused by unaligned string. +Fix file corruption which could occur on some large file +copies caused by writepages page i/o completion bug. +Seek to SEEK_END forces check for update of file size for non-cached +files. Allow file size to be updated on remote extend of locally open, +non-cached file. Fix reconnect to newer Samba servers (or other servers +which support the CIFS Unix/POSIX extensions) so that we again tell the +server the Unix/POSIX cifs capabilities which we support (SetFSInfo). +Add experimental support for new POSIX Open/Mkdir (which returns +stat information on the open, and allows setting the mode). + +Version 1.46 +------------ +Support deep tree mounts. Better support OS/2, Win9x (DOS) time stamps. +Allow null user to be specified on mount ("username="). Do not return +EINVAL on readdir when filldir fails due to overwritten blocksize +(fixes FC problem). Return error in rename 2nd attempt retry (ie report +if rename by handle also fails, after rename by path fails, we were +not reporting whether the retry worked or not). Fix NTLMv2 to +work to Windows servers (mount with option "sec=ntlmv2"). + +Version 1.45 +------------ +Do not time out lockw calls when using posix extensions. Do not +time out requests if server still responding reasonably fast +on requests on other threads. Improve POSIX locking emulation, +(lock cancel now works, and unlock of merged range works even +to Windows servers now). Fix oops on mount to lanman servers +(win9x, os/2 etc.) when null password. Do not send listxattr +(SMB to query all EAs) if nouser_xattr specified. Fix SE Linux +problem (instantiate inodes/dentries in right order for readdir). + +Version 1.44 +------------ +Rewritten sessionsetup support, including support for legacy SMB +session setup needed for OS/2 and older servers such as Windows 95 and 98. +Fix oops on ls to OS/2 servers. Add support for level 1 FindFirst +so we can do search (ls etc.) to OS/2. Do not send NTCreateX +or recent levels of FindFirst unless server says it supports NT SMBs +(instead use legacy equivalents from LANMAN dialect). Fix to allow +NTLMv2 authentication support (now can use stronger password hashing +on mount if corresponding /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags is set (0x4004). +Allow override of global cifs security flags on mount via "sec=" option(s). + +Version 1.43 +------------ +POSIX locking to servers which support CIFS POSIX Extensions +(disabled by default controlled by proc/fs/cifs/Experimental). +Handle conversion of long share names (especially Asian languages) +to Unicode during mount. Fix memory leak in sess struct on reconnect. +Fix rare oops after acpi suspend. Fix O_TRUNC opens to overwrite on +cifs open which helps rare case when setpathinfo fails or server does +not support it. + +Version 1.42 +------------ +Fix slow oplock break when mounted to different servers at the same time and +the tids match and we try to find matching fid on wrong server. Fix read +looping when signing required by server (2.6.16 kernel only). Fix readdir +vs. rename race which could cause each to hang. Return . and .. even +if server does not. Allow searches to skip first three entries and +begin at any location. Fix oops in find_writeable_file. + +Version 1.41 +------------ +Fix NTLMv2 security (can be enabled in /proc/fs/cifs) so customers can +configure stronger authentication. Fix sfu symlinks so they can +be followed (not just recognized). Fix wraparound of bcc on +read responses when buffer size over 64K and also fix wrap of +max smb buffer size when CIFSMaxBufSize over 64K. Fix oops in +cifs_user_read and cifs_readpages (when EAGAIN on send of smb +on socket is returned over and over). Add POSIX (advisory) byte range +locking support (requires server with newest CIFS UNIX Extensions +to the protocol implemented). Slow down negprot slightly in port 139 +RFC1001 case to give session_init time on buggy servers. + +Version 1.40 +------------ +Use fsuid (fsgid) more consistently instead of uid (gid). Improve performance +of readpages by eliminating one extra memcpy. Allow update of file size +from remote server even if file is open for write as long as mount is +directio. Recognize share mode security and send NTLM encrypted password +on tree connect if share mode negotiated. + +Version 1.39 +------------ +Defer close of a file handle slightly if pending writes depend on that handle +(this reduces the EBADF bad file handle errors that can be logged under heavy +stress on writes). Modify cifs Kconfig options to expose CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2 +Fix SFU style symlinks and mknod needed for servers which do not support the +CIFS Unix Extensions. Fix setfacl/getfacl on bigendian. Timeout negative +dentries so files that the client sees as deleted but that later get created +on the server will be recognized. Add client side permission check on setattr. +Timeout stuck requests better (where server has never responded or sent corrupt +responses) + +Version 1.38 +------------ +Fix tcp socket retransmission timeouts (e.g. on ENOSPACE from the socket) +to be smaller at first (but increasing) so large write performance performance +over GigE is better. Do not hang thread on illegal byte range lock response +from Windows (Windows can send an RFC1001 size which does not match smb size) by +allowing an SMBs TCP length to be up to a few bytes longer than it should be. +wsize and rsize can now be larger than negotiated buffer size if server +supports large readx/writex, even when directio mount flag not specified. +Write size will in many cases now be 16K instead of 4K which greatly helps +file copy performance on lightly loaded networks. Fix oops in dnotify +when experimental config flag enabled. Make cifsFYI more granular. + +Version 1.37 +------------ +Fix readdir caching when unlink removes file in current search buffer, +and this is followed by a rewind search to just before the deleted entry. +Do not attempt to set ctime unless atime and/or mtime change requested +(most servers throw it away anyway). Fix length check of received smbs +to be more accurate. Fix big endian problem with mapchars mount option, +and with a field returned by statfs. + +Version 1.36 +------------ +Add support for mounting to older pre-CIFS servers such as Windows9x and ME. +For these older servers, add option for passing netbios name of server in +on mount (servernetbiosname). Add suspend support for power management, to +avoid cifsd thread preventing software suspend from working. +Add mount option for disabling the default behavior of sending byte range lock +requests to the server (necessary for certain applications which break with +mandatory lock behavior such as Evolution), and also mount option for +requesting case insensitive matching for path based requests (requesting +case sensitive is the default). + +Version 1.35 +------------ +Add writepage performance improvements. Fix path name conversions +for long filenames on mounts which were done with "mapchars" mount option +specified. Ensure multiplex ids do not collide. Fix case in which +rmmod can oops if done soon after last unmount. Fix truncated +search (readdir) output when resume filename was a long filename. +Fix filename conversion when mapchars mount option was specified and +filename was a long filename. + +Version 1.34 +------------ +Fix error mapping of the TOO_MANY_LINKS (hardlinks) case. +Do not oops if root user kills cifs oplock kernel thread or +kills the cifsd thread (NB: killing the cifs kernel threads is not +recommended, unmount and rmmod cifs will kill them when they are +no longer needed). Fix readdir to ASCII servers (ie older servers +which do not support Unicode) and also require asterisk. +Fix out of memory case in which data could be written one page +off in the page cache. + +Version 1.33 +------------ +Fix caching problem, in which readdir of directory containing a file +which was cached could cause the file's time stamp to be updated +without invalidating the readahead data (so we could get stale +file data on the client for that file even as the server copy changed). +Cleanup response processing so cifsd can not loop when abnormally +terminated. + + +Version 1.32 +------------ +Fix oops in ls when Transact2 FindFirst (or FindNext) returns more than one +transact response for an SMB request and search entry split across two frames. +Add support for lsattr (getting ext2/ext3/reiserfs attr flags from the server) +as new protocol extensions. Do not send Get/Set calls for POSIX ACLs +unless server explicitly claims to support them in CIFS Unix extensions +POSIX ACL capability bit. Fix packet signing when multiuser mounting with +different users from the same client to the same server. Fix oops in +cifs_close. Add mount option for remapping reserved characters in +filenames (also allow recognizing files with created by SFU which have any +of these seven reserved characters, except backslash, to be recognized). +Fix invalid transact2 message (we were sometimes trying to interpret +oplock breaks as SMB responses). Add ioctl for checking that the +current uid matches the uid of the mounter (needed by umount.cifs). +Reduce the number of large buffer allocations in cifs response processing +(significantly reduces memory pressure under heavy stress with multiple +processes accessing the same server at the same time). + +Version 1.31 +------------ +Fix updates of DOS attributes and time fields so that files on NT4 servers +do not get marked delete on close. Display sizes of cifs buffer pools in +cifs stats. Fix oops in unmount when cifsd thread being killed by +shutdown. Add generic readv/writev and aio support. Report inode numbers +consistently in readdir and lookup (when serverino mount option is +specified use the inode number that the server reports - for both lookup +and readdir, otherwise by default the locally generated inode number is used +for inodes created in either path since servers are not always able to +provide unique inode numbers when exporting multiple volumes from under one +sharename). + +Version 1.30 +------------ +Allow new nouser_xattr mount parm to disable xattr support for user namespace. +Do not flag user_xattr mount parm in dmesg. Retry failures setting file time +(mostly affects NT4 servers) by retry with handle based network operation. +Add new POSIX Query FS Info for returning statfs info more accurately. +Handle passwords with multiple commas in them. + +Version 1.29 +------------ +Fix default mode in sysfs of cifs module parms. Remove old readdir routine. +Fix capabilities flags for large readx so as to allow reads larger than 64K. + +Version 1.28 +------------ +Add module init parm for large SMB buffer size (to allow it to be changed +from its default of 16K) which is especially useful for large file copy +when mounting with the directio mount option. Fix oops after +returning from mount when experimental ExtendedSecurity enabled and +SpnegoNegotiated returning invalid error. Fix case to retry better when +peek returns from 1 to 3 bytes on socket which should have more data. +Fixed path based calls (such as cifs lookup) to handle path names +longer than 530 (now can handle PATH_MAX). Fix pass through authentication +from Samba server to DC (Samba required dummy LM password). + +Version 1.27 +------------ +Turn off DNOTIFY (directory change notification support) by default +(unless built with the experimental flag) to fix hang with KDE +file browser. Fix DNOTIFY flag mappings. Fix hang (in wait_event +waiting on an SMB response) in SendReceive when session dies but +reconnects quickly from another task. Add module init parms for +minimum number of large and small network buffers in the buffer pools, +and for the maximum number of simultaneous requests. + +Version 1.26 +------------ +Add setfacl support to allow setting of ACLs remotely to Samba 3.10 and later +and other POSIX CIFS compliant servers. Fix error mapping for getfacl +to EOPNOTSUPP when server does not support posix acls on the wire. Fix +improperly zeroed buffer in CIFS Unix extensions set times call. + +Version 1.25 +------------ +Fix internationalization problem in cifs readdir with filenames that map to +longer UTF-8 strings than the string on the wire was in Unicode. Add workaround +for readdir to netapp servers. Fix search rewind (seek into readdir to return +non-consecutive entries). Do not do readdir when server negotiates +buffer size to small to fit filename. Add support for reading POSIX ACLs from +the server (add also acl and noacl mount options). + +Version 1.24 +------------ +Optionally allow using server side inode numbers, rather than client generated +ones by specifying mount option "serverino" - this is required for some apps +to work which double check hardlinked files and have persistent inode numbers. + +Version 1.23 +------------ +Multiple bigendian fixes. On little endian systems (for reconnect after +network failure) fix tcp session reconnect code so we do not try first +to reconnect on reverse of port 445. Treat reparse points (NTFS junctions) +as directories rather than symlinks because we can do follow link on them. + +Version 1.22 +------------ +Add config option to enable XATTR (extended attribute) support, mapping +xattr names in the "user." namespace space to SMB/CIFS EAs. Lots of +minor fixes pointed out by the Stanford SWAT checker (mostly missing +or out of order NULL pointer checks in little used error paths). + +Version 1.21 +------------ +Add new mount parm to control whether mode check (generic_permission) is done +on the client. If Unix extensions are enabled and the uids on the client +and server do not match, client permission checks are meaningless on +server uids that do not exist on the client (this does not affect the +normal ACL check which occurs on the server). Fix default uid +on mknod to match create and mkdir. Add optional mount parm to allow +override of the default uid behavior (in which the server sets the uid +and gid of newly created files). Normally for network filesystem mounts +user want the server to set the uid/gid on newly created files (rather than +using uid of the client processes you would in a local filesystem). + +Version 1.20 +------------ +Make transaction counts more consistent. 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 override 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 protocol 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 reopen_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.

Although the helper software is not +required, mount.cifs is recommended. Eventually the Samba 3.0 utility program +"net" may also be helpful since it may someday provide easier mount syntax for +users who are used to Windows e.g. + net use <mount point> <UNC name or cifs URL> +Note that running the Winbind pam/nss module (logon service) on all of your +Linux clients is useful in mapping Uids and Gids consistently across the +domain to the proper network user. The mount.cifs mount helper can be +trivially built from Samba 3.0 or later source e.g. by executing: + + gcc samba/source/client/mount.cifs.c -o mount.cifs + +If cifs is built as a module, then the size and number of network buffers +and maximum number of simultaneous requests to one server can be configured. +Changing these from their defaults is not recommended. By executing modinfo + modinfo kernel/fs/cifs/cifs.ko +on kernel/fs/cifs/cifs.ko the list of configuration changes that can be made +at module initialization time (by running insmod cifs.ko) can be seen. + +Allowing User Mounts +==================== +To permit users to mount and unmount over directories they own is possible +with the cifs vfs. A way to enable such mounting is to mark the mount.cifs +utility as suid (e.g. "chmod +s /sbin/mount.cifs). To enable users to +umount shares they mount requires +1) mount.cifs version 1.4 or later +2) an entry for the share in /etc/fstab indicating that a user may +unmount it e.g. +//server/usersharename /mnt/username cifs user 0 0 + +Note that when the mount.cifs utility is run suid (allowing user mounts), +in order to reduce risks, the "nosuid" mount flag is passed in on mount to +disallow execution of an suid program mounted on the remote target. +When mount is executed as root, nosuid is not passed in by default, +and execution of suid programs on the remote target would be enabled +by default. This can be changed, as with nfs and other filesystems, +by simply specifying "nosuid" among the mount options. For user mounts +though to be able to pass the suid flag to mount requires rebuilding +mount.cifs with the following flag: + + gcc samba/source/client/mount.cifs.c -DCIFS_ALLOW_USR_SUID -o mount.cifs + +There is a corresponding manual page for cifs mounting in the Samba 3.0 and +later source tree in docs/manpages/mount.cifs.8 + +Allowing User Unmounts +====================== +To permit users to ummount directories that they have user mounted (see above), +the utility umount.cifs may be used. It may be invoked directly, or if +umount.cifs is placed in /sbin, umount can invoke the cifs umount helper +(at least for most versions of the umount utility) for umount of cifs +mounts, unless umount is invoked with -i (which will avoid invoking a umount +helper). As with mount.cifs, to enable user unmounts umount.cifs must be marked +as suid (e.g. "chmod +s /sbin/umount.cifs") or equivalent (some distributions +allow adding entries to a file to the /etc/permissions file to achieve the +equivalent suid effect). For this utility to succeed the target path +must be a cifs mount, and the uid of the current user must match the uid +of the user who mounted the resource. + +Also note that the customary way of allowing user mounts and unmounts is +(instead of using mount.cifs and unmount.cifs as suid) to add a line +to the file /etc/fstab for each //server/share you wish to mount, but +this can become unwieldy when potential mount targets include many +or unpredictable UNC names. + +Samba Considerations +==================== +To get the maximum benefit from the CIFS VFS, we recommend using a server that +supports the SNIA CIFS Unix Extensions standard (e.g. Samba 2.2.5 or later or +Samba 3.0) but the CIFS vfs works fine with a wide variety of CIFS servers. +Note that uid, gid and file permissions will display default values if you do +not have a server that supports the Unix extensions for CIFS (such as Samba +2.2.5 or later). To enable the Unix CIFS Extensions in the Samba server, add +the line: + + unix extensions = yes + +to your smb.conf file on the server. Note that the following smb.conf settings +are also useful (on the Samba server) when the majority of clients are Unix or +Linux: + + case sensitive = yes + delete readonly = yes + ea support = yes + +Note that server ea support is required for supporting xattrs from the Linux +cifs client, and that EA support is present in later versions of Samba (e.g. +3.0.6 and later (also EA support works in all versions of Windows, at least to +shares on NTFS filesystems). Extended Attribute (xattr) support is an optional +feature of most Linux filesystems which may require enabling via +make menuconfig. Client support for extended attributes (user xattr) can be +disabled on a per-mount basis by specifying "nouser_xattr" on mount. + +The CIFS client can get and set POSIX ACLs (getfacl, setfacl) to Samba servers +version 3.10 and later. Setting POSIX ACLs requires enabling both XATTR and +then POSIX support in the CIFS configuration options when building the cifs +module. POSIX ACL support can be disabled on a per mount basic by specifying +"noacl" on mount. + +Some administrators may want to change Samba's smb.conf "map archive" and +"create mask" parameters from the default. Unless the create mask is changed +newly created files can end up with an unnecessarily restrictive default mode, +which may not be what you want, although if the CIFS Unix extensions are +enabled on the server and client, subsequent setattr calls (e.g. chmod) can +fix the mode. Note that creating special devices (mknod) remotely +may require specifying a mkdev function to Samba if you are not using +Samba 3.0.6 or later. For more information on these see the manual pages +("man smb.conf") on the Samba server system. Note that the cifs vfs, +unlike the smbfs vfs, does not read the smb.conf on the client system +(the few optional settings are passed in on mount via -o parameters instead). +Note that Samba 2.2.7 or later includes a fix that allows the CIFS VFS to delete +open files (required for strict POSIX compliance). Windows Servers already +supported this feature. Samba server does not allow symlinks that refer to files +outside of the share, so in Samba versions prior to 3.0.6, most symlinks to +files with absolute paths (ie beginning with slash) such as: + ln -s /mnt/foo bar +would be forbidden. Samba 3.0.6 server or later includes the ability to create +such symlinks safely by converting unsafe symlinks (ie symlinks to server +files that are outside of the share) to a samba specific format on the server +that is ignored by local server applications and non-cifs clients and that will +not be traversed by the Samba server). This is opaque to the Linux client +application using the cifs vfs. Absolute symlinks will work to Samba 3.0.5 or +later, but only for remote clients using the CIFS Unix extensions, and will +be invisbile to Windows clients and typically will not affect local +applications running on the same server as Samba. + +Use instructions: +================ +Once the CIFS VFS support is built into the kernel or installed as a module +(cifs.o), you can use mount syntax like the following to access Samba or Windows +servers: + + mount -t cifs //9.53.216.11/e$ /mnt -o user=myname,pass=mypassword + +Before -o the option -v may be specified to make the mount.cifs +mount helper display the mount steps more verbosely. +After -o the following commonly used cifs vfs specific options +are supported: + + user=<username> + pass=<password> + domain=<domain name> + +Other cifs mount options are described below. Use of TCP names (in addition to +ip addresses) is available if the mount helper (mount.cifs) is installed. If +you do not trust the server to which are mounted, or if you do not have +cifs signing enabled (and the physical network is insecure), consider use +of the standard mount options "noexec" and "nosuid" to reduce the risk of +running an altered binary on your local system (downloaded from a hostile server +or altered by a hostile router). + +Although mounting using format corresponding to the CIFS URL specification is +not possible in mount.cifs yet, it is possible to use an alternate format +for the server and sharename (which is somewhat similar to NFS style mount +syntax) instead of the more widely used UNC format (i.e. \\server\share): + mount -t cifs tcp_name_of_server:share_name /mnt -o user=myname,pass=mypasswd + +When using the mount helper mount.cifs, passwords may be specified via alternate +mechanisms, instead of specifying it after -o using the normal "pass=" syntax +on the command line: +1) By including it in a credential file. Specify credentials=filename as one +of the mount options. Credential files contain two lines + username=someuser + password=your_password +2) By specifying the password in the PASSWD environment variable (similarly +the user name can be taken from the USER environment variable). +3) By specifying the password in a file by name via PASSWD_FILE +4) By specifying the password in a file by file descriptor via PASSWD_FD + +If no password is provided, mount.cifs will prompt for password entry + +Restrictions +============ +Servers must support either "pure-TCP" (port 445 TCP/IP CIFS connections) or RFC +1001/1002 support for "Netbios-Over-TCP/IP." This is not likely to be a +problem as most servers support this. + +Valid filenames differ between Windows and Linux. Windows typically restricts +filenames which contain certain reserved characters (e.g.the character : +which is used to delimit the beginning of a stream name by Windows), while +Linux allows a slightly wider set of valid characters in filenames. Windows +servers can remap such characters when an explicit mapping is specified in +the Server's registry. Samba starting with version 3.10 will allow such +filenames (ie those which contain valid Linux characters, which normally +would be forbidden for Windows/CIFS semantics) as long as the server is +configured for Unix Extensions (and the client has not disabled +/proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled). + + +CIFS VFS Mount Options +====================== +A partial list of the supported mount options follows: + user The user name to use when trying to establish + the CIFS session. + password The user password. If the mount helper is + installed, the user will be prompted for password + if not supplied. + ip The ip address of the target server + unc The target server Universal Network Name (export) to + mount. + domain Set the SMB/CIFS workgroup name prepended to the + username during CIFS session establishment + forceuid Set the default uid for inodes to the uid + passed in on mount. For mounts to servers + which do support the CIFS Unix extensions, such as a + properly configured Samba server, the server provides + the uid, gid and mode so this parameter should not be + specified unless the server and clients uid and gid + numbering differ. If the server and client are in the + same domain (e.g. running winbind or nss_ldap) and + the server supports the Unix Extensions then the uid + and gid can be retrieved from the server (and uid + and gid would not have to be specifed on the mount. + For servers which do not support the CIFS Unix + extensions, the default uid (and gid) returned on lookup + of existing files will be the uid (gid) of the person + who executed the mount (root, except when mount.cifs + is configured setuid for user mounts) unless the "uid=" + (gid) mount option is specified. Also note that permission + checks (authorization checks) on accesses to a file occur + at the server, but there are cases in which an administrator + may want to restrict at the client as well. For those + servers which do not report a uid/gid owner + (such as Windows), permissions can also be checked at the + client, and a crude form of client side permission checking + can be enabled by specifying file_mode and dir_mode on + the client. (default) + forcegid (similar to above but for the groupid instead of uid) (default) + noforceuid Fill in file owner information (uid) by requesting it from + the server if possible. With this option, the value given in + the uid= option (on mount) will only be used if the server + can not support returning uids on inodes. + noforcegid (similar to above but for the group owner, gid, instead of uid) + uid Set the default uid for inodes, and indicate to the + cifs kernel driver which local user mounted. If the server + supports the unix extensions the default uid is + not used to fill in the owner fields of inodes (files) + unless the "forceuid" parameter is specified. + gid Set the default gid for inodes (similar to above). + file_mode If CIFS Unix extensions are not supported by the server + this overrides the default mode for file inodes. + fsc Enable local disk caching using FS-Cache (off by default). This + option could be useful to improve performance on a slow link, + heavily loaded server and/or network where reading from the + disk is faster than reading from the server (over the network). + This could also impact scalability positively as the + number of calls to the server are reduced. However, local + caching is not suitable for all workloads for e.g. read-once + type workloads. So, you need to consider carefully your + workload/scenario before using this option. Currently, local + disk caching is functional for CIFS files opened as read-only. + dir_mode If CIFS Unix extensions are not supported by the server + this overrides the default mode for directory inodes. + port attempt to contact the server on this tcp port, before + trying the usual ports (port 445, then 139). + iocharset Codepage used to convert local path names to and from + Unicode. Unicode is used by default for network path + names if the server supports it. If iocharset is + not specified then the nls_default specified + during the local client kernel build will be used. + If server does not support Unicode, this parameter is + unused. + rsize default read size (usually 16K). The client currently + can not use rsize larger than CIFSMaxBufSize. CIFSMaxBufSize + defaults to 16K and may be changed (from 8K to the maximum + kmalloc size allowed by your kernel) at module install time + for cifs.ko. Setting CIFSMaxBufSize to a very large value + will cause cifs to use more memory and may reduce performance + in some cases. To use rsize greater than 127K (the original + cifs protocol maximum) also requires that the server support + a new Unix Capability flag (for very large read) which some + newer servers (e.g. Samba 3.0.26 or later) do. rsize can be + set from a minimum of 2048 to a maximum of 130048 (127K or + CIFSMaxBufSize, whichever is smaller) + wsize default write size (default 57344) + maximum wsize currently allowed by CIFS is 57344 (fourteen + 4096 byte pages) + actimeo=n attribute cache timeout in seconds (default 1 second). + After this timeout, the cifs client requests fresh attribute + information from the server. This option allows to tune the + attribute cache timeout to suit the workload needs. Shorter + timeouts mean better the cache coherency, but increased number + of calls to the server. Longer timeouts mean reduced number + of calls to the server at the expense of less stricter cache + coherency checks (i.e. incorrect attribute cache for a short + period of time). + rw mount the network share read-write (note that the + server may still consider the share read-only) + ro mount network share read-only + version used to distinguish different versions of the + mount helper utility (not typically needed) + sep if first mount option (after the -o), overrides + the comma as the separator between the mount + parms. e.g. + -o user=myname,password=mypassword,domain=mydom + could be passed instead with period as the separator by + -o sep=.user=myname.password=mypassword.domain=mydom + this might be useful when comma is contained within username + or password or domain. This option is less important + when the cifs mount helper cifs.mount (version 1.1 or later) + is used. + nosuid Do not allow remote executables with the suid bit + program to be executed. This is only meaningful for mounts + to servers such as Samba which support the CIFS Unix Extensions. + If you do not trust the servers in your network (your mount + targets) it is recommended that you specify this option for + greater security. + exec Permit execution of binaries on the mount. + noexec Do not permit execution of binaries on the mount. + dev Recognize block devices on the remote mount. + nodev Do not recognize devices on the remote mount. + suid Allow remote files on this mountpoint with suid enabled to + be executed (default for mounts when executed as root, + nosuid is default for user mounts). + credentials Although ignored by the cifs kernel component, it is used by + the mount helper, mount.cifs. When mount.cifs is installed it + opens and reads the credential file specified in order + to obtain the userid and password arguments which are passed to + the cifs vfs. + guest Although ignored by the kernel component, the mount.cifs + mount helper will not prompt the user for a password + if guest is specified on the mount options. If no + password is specified a null password will be used. + perm Client does permission checks (vfs_permission check of uid + and gid of the file against the mode and desired operation), + Note that this is in addition to the normal ACL check on the + target machine done by the server software. + Client permission checking is enabled by default. + noperm Client does not do permission checks. This can expose + files on this mount to access by other users on the local + client system. It is typically only needed when the server + supports the CIFS Unix Extensions but the UIDs/GIDs on the + client and server system do not match closely enough to allow + access by the user doing the mount, but it may be useful with + non CIFS Unix Extension mounts for cases in which the default + mode is specified on the mount but is not to be enforced on the + client (e.g. perhaps when MultiUserMount is enabled) + Note that this does not affect the normal ACL check on the + target machine done by the server software (of the server + ACL against the user name provided at mount time). + serverino Use server's inode numbers instead of generating automatically + incrementing inode numbers on the client. Although this will + make it easier to spot hardlinked files (as they will have + the same inode numbers) and inode numbers may be persistent, + note that the server does not guarantee that the inode numbers + are unique if multiple server side mounts are exported under a + single share (since inode numbers on the servers might not + be unique if multiple filesystems are mounted under the same + shared higher level directory). Note that some older + (e.g. pre-Windows 2000) do not support returning UniqueIDs + or the CIFS Unix Extensions equivalent and for those + this mount option will have no effect. Exporting cifs mounts + under nfsd requires this mount option on the cifs mount. + This is now the default if server supports the + required network operation. + noserverino Client generates inode numbers (rather than using the actual one + from the server). These inode numbers will vary after + unmount or reboot which can confuse some applications, + but not all server filesystems support unique inode + numbers. + setuids If the CIFS Unix extensions are negotiated with the server + the client will attempt to set the effective uid and gid of + the local process on newly created files, directories, and + devices (create, mkdir, mknod). If the CIFS Unix Extensions + are not negotiated, for newly created files and directories + instead of using the default uid and gid specified on + the mount, cache the new file's uid and gid locally which means + that the uid for the file can change when the inode is + reloaded (or the user remounts the share). + nosetuids The client will not attempt to set the uid and gid on + on newly created files, directories, and devices (create, + mkdir, mknod) which will result in the server setting the + uid and gid to the default (usually the server uid of the + user who mounted the share). Letting the server (rather than + the client) set the uid and gid is the default. If the CIFS + Unix Extensions are not negotiated then the uid and gid for + new files will appear to be the uid (gid) of the mounter or the + uid (gid) parameter specified on the mount. + netbiosname When mounting to servers via port 139, specifies the RFC1001 + source name to use to represent the client netbios machine + name when doing the RFC1001 netbios session initialize. + direct Do not do inode data caching on files opened on this mount. + This precludes mmapping files on this mount. In some cases + with fast networks and little or no caching benefits on the + client (e.g. when the application is doing large sequential + reads bigger than page size without rereading the same data) + this can provide better performance than the default + behavior which caches reads (readahead) and writes + (writebehind) through the local Linux client pagecache + if oplock (caching token) is granted and held. Note that + direct allows write operations larger than page size + to be sent to the server. + strictcache Use for switching on strict cache mode. In this mode the + client read from the cache all the time it has Oplock Level II, + otherwise - read from the server. All written data are stored + in the cache, but if the client doesn't have Exclusive Oplock, + it writes the data to the server. + rwpidforward Forward pid of a process who opened a file to any read or write + operation on that file. This prevent applications like WINE + from failing on read and write if we use mandatory brlock style. + acl Allow setfacl and getfacl to manage posix ACLs if server + supports them.
