SF
1Version 1.56
2------------
3Add "forcemandatorylock" mount option to allow user to use mandatory
4rather than posix (advisory) byte range locks, even though server would
8be0ed44
SF
5support posix byte range locks. Fix query of root inode when prefixpath
6specified and user does not have access to query information about the
c6fbba05
SF
7top of the share. Fix problem in 2.6.28 resolving DFS paths to
8Samba servers (worked to Windows).

3270958b
SF
10Version 1.55
11------------
12Various fixes to make delete of open files behavior more predictable
13(when delete of an open file fails we mark the file as "delete-on-close"
14in a way that more servers accept, but only if we can first rename the
84210e91 15file to a temporary name). Add experimental support for more safely
edf1ae40
SF
16handling fcntl(F_SETLEASE). Convert cifs to using blocking tcp
17sends, and also let tcp autotune the socket send and receive buffers.
18This reduces the number of EAGAIN errors returned by TCP/IP in
19high stress workloads (and the number of retries on socket writes
bfb59820
SF
20when sending large SMBWriteX requests). Fix case in which a portion of
21data can in some cases not get written to the file on the server before the
22file is closed. Fix DFS parsing to properly handle path consumed field,
23and to handle certain codepage conversions better. Fix mount and
24umount race that can cause oops in mount or umount or reconnect.
3270958b 25
26b994fa
SF
26Version 1.54
27------------
28Fix premature write failure on congested networks (we would give up
29on EAGAIN from the socket too quickly on large writes).
30Cifs_mkdir and cifs_create now respect the setgid bit on parent dir.
31Fix endian problems in acl (mode from/to cifs acl) on bigendian
6ce5eecb
SF
32architectures. Fix problems with preserving timestamps on copying open
33files (e.g. "cp -a") to Windows servers. For mkdir and create honor setgid bit
34on parent directory when server supports Unix Extensions but not POSIX
35create. Update cifs.upcall version to handle new Kerberos sec flags
87ed1d65 36(this requires update of cifs.upcall program from Samba). Fix memory leak
2e655021
SF
37on dns_upcall (resolving DFS referralls). Fix plain text password
38authentication (requires setting SecurityFlags to 0x30030 to enable
39lanman and plain text though). Fix writes to be at correct offset when
40file is open with O_APPEND and file is on a directio (forcediretio) mount.
3270958b 41Fix bug in rewinding readdir directory searches. Add nodfs mount option.
26b994fa 42
39da9847
SF
43Version 1.53
44------------
0e4bbde9
SF
45DFS support added (Microsoft Distributed File System client support needed
46for referrals which enable a hierarchical name space among servers).
dbdbb876
SF
47Disable temporary caching of mode bits to servers which do not support
48storing of mode (e.g. Windows servers, when client mounts without cifsacl
49mount option) and add new "dynperm" mount option to enable temporary caching
50of mode (enable old behavior). Fix hang on mount caused when server crashes
51tcp session during negotiate protocol.
39da9847 52
ce06c9f0
SF
53Version 1.52
54------------
9b8f5f57 55Fix oops on second mount to server when null auth is used.
cea21805
JL
56Enable experimental Kerberos support. Return writebehind errors on flush
57and sync so that events like out of disk space get reported properly on
1d9a8852
JL
58cached files. Fix setxattr failure to certain Samba versions. Fix mount
59of second share to disconnected server session (autoreconnect on this).
97837582 60Add ability to modify cifs acls for handling chmod (when mounted with
03a143c9
SF
61cifsacl flag). Fix prefixpath path separator so we can handle mounts
62with prefixpaths longer than one directory (one path component) when
932e2d23 63mounted to Windows servers. Fix slow file open when cifsacl
6353450a
JL
64enabled. Fix memory leak in FindNext when the SMB call returns -EBADF.
65
ce06c9f0 66
407f61a2
SF
67Version 1.51
68------------
69Fix memory leak in statfs when mounted to very old servers (e.g.
92ad9b93
SF
70Windows 9x). Add new feature "POSIX open" which allows servers
71which support the current POSIX Extensions to provide better semantics
72(e.g. delete for open files opened with posix open). Take into
73account umask on posix mkdir not just older style mkdir. Add
74ability to mount to IPC$ share (which allows CIFS named pipes to be
297647c2
SF
75opened, read and written as if they were files). When 1st tree
76connect fails (e.g. due to signing negotiation failure) fix
77leak that causes cifsd not to stop and rmmod to fail to cleanup
8f2376ad 78cifs_request_buffers pool. Fix problem with POSIX Open/Mkdir on
c18c732e 79bigendian architectures. Fix possible memory corruption when
abb63d6c 80EAGAIN returned on kern_recvmsg. Return better error if server
e01b6400
SP
81requires packet signing but client has disabled it. When mounted
82with cifsacl mount option - mode bits are approximated based
1fb64bfc
SF
83on the contents of the ACL of the file or directory. When cifs
84mount helper is missing convert make sure that UNC name
85has backslash (not forward slash) between ip address of server
86and the share name.
407f61a2 87
b609f06a
SF
88Version 1.50
89------------
7521a3c5 90Fix NTLMv2 signing. NFS server mounted over cifs works (if cifs mount is
2d785a50
SF
91done with "serverino" mount option). Add support for POSIX Unlink
92(helps with certain sharing violation cases when server such as
a403a0a3
SF
93Samba supports newer POSIX CIFS Protocol Extensions). Add "nounix"
94mount option to allow disabling the CIFS Unix Extensions for just
95that mount. Fix hang on spinlock in find_writable_file (race when
39db810c
JL
96reopening file after session crash). Byte range unlock request to
97windows server could unlock more bytes (on server copy of file)
98than intended if start of unlock request is well before start of
99a previous byte range lock that we issued.
b609f06a 100
5858ae44
SF
101Version 1.49
102------------
103IPv6 support. Enable ipv6 addresses to be passed on mount (put the ipv6
104address after the "ip=" mount option, at least until mount.cifs is fixed to
4523cc30
SF
105handle DNS host to ipv6 name translation). Accept override of uid or gid
106on mount even when Unix Extensions are negotiated (it used to be ignored
107when Unix Extensions were ignored). This allows users to override the
108default uid and gid for files when they are certain that the uids or
8426c39c
JL
109gids on the server do not match those of the client. Make "sec=none"
110mount override username (so that null user connection is attempted)
75865f8c
SF
111to match what documentation said. Support for very large reads, over 127K,
112available to some newer servers (such as Samba 3.0.26 and later but
113note that it also requires setting CIFSMaxBufSize at module install
114time to a larger value which may hurt performance in some cases).
38c10a1d 115Make sign option force signing (or fail if server does not support it).
5858ae44
SF
116
117Version 1.48
3677db10
SF
118------------
119Fix mtime bouncing around from local idea of last write times to remote time.
120Fix hang (in i_size_read) when simultaneous size update of same remote file
8a236264
SF
121on smp system corrupts sequence number. Do not reread unnecessarily partial page
122(which we are about to overwrite anyway) when writing out file opened rw.
f5c1e2ea
AT
123When DOS attribute of file on non-Unix server's file changes on the server side
124from read-only back to read-write, reflect this change in default file mode
066fcb06
SF
125(we had been leaving a file's mode read-only until the inode were reloaded).
126Allow setting of attribute back to ATTR_NORMAL (removing readonly dos attribute
127when archive dos attribute not set and we are changing mode back to writeable
5268df2e
SF
128on server which does not support the Unix Extensions). Remove read only dos
129attribute on chmod when adding any write permission (ie on any of
130user/group/other (not all of user/group/other ie 0222) when
2dd29d31
SF
131mounted to windows. Add support for POSIX MkDir (slight performance
132enhancement and eliminates the network race between the mkdir and set
133path info of the mode).
134
8a236264 135
405c514f
SF
136Version 1.47
137------------
138Fix oops in list_del during mount caused by unaligned string.
595dcfec
SF
139Fix file corruption which could occur on some large file
140copies caused by writepages page i/o completion bug.
a850790f 141Seek to SEEK_END forces check for update of file size for non-cached
8af18971
SF
142files. Allow file size to be updated on remote extend of locally open,
143non-cached file. Fix reconnect to newer Samba servers (or other servers
144which support the CIFS Unix/POSIX extensions) so that we again tell the
145server the Unix/POSIX cifs capabilities which we support (SetFSInfo).
146Add experimental support for new POSIX Open/Mkdir (which returns
147stat information on the open, and allows setting the mode).
405c514f 148
2fe87f02
SF
149Version 1.46
150------------
151Support deep tree mounts. Better support OS/2, Win9x (DOS) time stamps.
4b952a9b
SF
152Allow null user to be specified on mount ("username="). Do not return
153EINVAL on readdir when filldir fails due to overwritten blocksize
8e87d4dc
SF
154(fixes FC problem). Return error in rename 2nd attempt retry (ie report
155if rename by handle also fails, after rename by path fails, we were
33ec32fa
SF
156not reporting whether the retry worked or not). Fix NTLMv2 to
157work to Windows servers (mount with option "sec=ntlmv2").
2fe87f02 158
3a5ff61c
SF
159Version 1.45
160------------
161Do not time out lockw calls when using posix extensions. Do not
162time out requests if server still responding reasonably fast
e466e487
SF
163on requests on other threads. Improve POSIX locking emulation,
164(lock cancel now works, and unlock of merged range works even
165to Windows servers now). Fix oops on mount to lanman servers
ea4c07d7 166(win9x, os/2 etc.) when null password. Do not send listxattr
2fe87f02
SF
167(SMB to query all EAs) if nouser_xattr specified. Fix SE Linux
168problem (instantiate inodes/dentries in right order for readdir).
3a5ff61c 169
3979877e
SF
170Version 1.44
171------------
172Rewritten sessionsetup support, including support for legacy SMB
173session setup needed for OS/2 and older servers such as Windows 95 and 98.
5bafd765
SF
174Fix oops on ls to OS/2 servers. Add support for level 1 FindFirst
175so we can do search (ls etc.) to OS/2. Do not send NTCreateX
176or recent levels of FindFirst unless server says it supports NT SMBs
1717ffc5
SF
177(instead use legacy equivalents from LANMAN dialect). Fix to allow
178NTLMv2 authentication support (now can use stronger password hashing
750d1151
SF
179on mount if corresponding /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags is set (0x4004).
180Allow override of global cifs security flags on mount via "sec=" option(s).
3979877e 181
fc94cdb9
SF
182Version 1.43
183------------
184POSIX locking to servers which support CIFS POSIX Extensions
a878fb22
SF
185(disabled by default controlled by proc/fs/cifs/Experimental).
186Handle conversion of long share names (especially Asian languages)
26a21b98
SF
187to Unicode during mount. Fix memory leak in sess struct on reconnect.
188Fix rare oops after acpi suspend. Fix O_TRUNC opens to overwrite on
189cifs open which helps rare case when setpathinfo fails or server does
190not support it.
fc94cdb9 191
13298def
SF
192Version 1.42
193------------
194Fix slow oplock break when mounted to different servers at the same time and
60808233
SF
195the tids match and we try to find matching fid on wrong server. Fix read
196looping when signing required by server (2.6.16 kernel only). Fix readdir
197vs. rename race which could cause each to hang. Return . and .. even
198if server does not. Allow searches to skip first three entries and
199begin at any location. Fix oops in find_writeable_file.
13298def 200
12b3b8ff
SF
201Version 1.41
202------------
203Fix NTLMv2 security (can be enabled in /proc/fs/cifs) so customers can
204configure stronger authentication. Fix sfu symlinks so they can
184ed211
SF
205be followed (not just recognized). Fix wraparound of bcc on
206read responses when buffer size over 64K and also fix wrap of
207max smb buffer size when CIFSMaxBufSize over 64K. Fix oops in
208cifs_user_read and cifs_readpages (when EAGAIN on send of smb
08547b03
SF
209on socket is returned over and over). Add POSIX (advisory) byte range
210locking support (requires server with newest CIFS UNIX Extensions
083d3a2c
SF
211to the protocol implemented). Slow down negprot slightly in port 139
212RFC1001 case to give session_init time on buggy servers.
12b3b8ff 213
83451879
SF
214Version 1.40
215------------
84afc29b 216Use fsuid (fsgid) more consistently instead of uid (gid). Improve performance
0a4b92c0
SF
217of readpages by eliminating one extra memcpy. Allow update of file size
218from remote server even if file is open for write as long as mount is
eeac8047
SF
219directio. Recognize share mode security and send NTLM encrypted password
220on tree connect if share mode negotiated.
83451879 221
23e7dd7d
SF
222Version 1.39
223------------
3abb9272 224Defer close of a file handle slightly if pending writes depend on that handle
23e7dd7d 225(this reduces the EBADF bad file handle errors that can be logged under heavy
3c50c618 226stress on writes). Modify cifs Kconfig options to expose CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2
3abb9272
SF
227Fix SFU style symlinks and mknod needed for servers which do not support the
228CIFS Unix Extensions. Fix setfacl/getfacl on bigendian. Timeout negative
229dentries so files that the client sees as deleted but that later get created
6473a559 230on the server will be recognized. Add client side permission check on setattr.
83451879
SF
231Timeout stuck requests better (where server has never responded or sent corrupt
232responses)
23e7dd7d 233
190fdeb8
SF
234Version 1.38
235------------
236Fix tcp socket retransmission timeouts (e.g. on ENOSPACE from the socket)
237to be smaller at first (but increasing) so large write performance performance
238over GigE is better. Do not hang thread on illegal byte range lock response
239from Windows (Windows can send an RFC1001 size which does not match smb size) by
240allowing an SMBs TCP length to be up to a few bytes longer than it should be.
241wsize and rsize can now be larger than negotiated buffer size if server
242supports large readx/writex, even when directio mount flag not specified.
243Write size will in many cases now be 16K instead of 4K which greatly helps
4ca9c190 244file copy performance on lightly loaded networks. Fix oops in dnotify
1047abc1 245when experimental config flag enabled. Make cifsFYI more granular.
190fdeb8 246
eafe8701
SF
247Version 1.37
248------------
249Fix readdir caching when unlink removes file in current search buffer,
250and this is followed by a rewind search to just before the deleted entry.
e30dcf3a 251Do not attempt to set ctime unless atime and/or mtime change requested
20962438 252(most servers throw it away anyway). Fix length check of received smbs
70ca734a
SF
253to be more accurate. Fix big endian problem with mapchars mount option,
254and with a field returned by statfs.
eafe8701 255
c46fa8ac
SF
256Version 1.36
257------------
c0c3e8ed 258Add support for mounting to older pre-CIFS servers such as Windows9x and ME.
6b8edfe0 259For these older servers, add option for passing netbios name of server in
16abbecd
SF
260on mount (servernetbiosname). Add suspend support for power management, to
261avoid cifsd thread preventing software suspend from working.
c46fa8ac
SF
262Add mount option for disabling the default behavior of sending byte range lock
263requests to the server (necessary for certain applications which break with
264mandatory lock behavior such as Evolution), and also mount option for
265requesting case insensitive matching for path based requests (requesting
266case sensitive is the default).
267
f4cfd69c
SF
268Version 1.35
269------------
270Add writepage performance improvements. Fix path name conversions
271for long filenames on mounts which were done with "mapchars" mount option
a10faeb2
SF
272specified. Ensure multiplex ids do not collide. Fix case in which
273rmmod can oops if done soon after last unmount. Fix truncated
274search (readdir) output when resume filename was a long filename.
275Fix filename conversion when mapchars mount option was specified and
276filename was a long filename.
f4cfd69c 277
11aa0149
SF
278Version 1.34
279------------
280Fix error mapping of the TOO_MANY_LINKS (hardlinks) case.
31ca3bc3
SF
281Do not oops if root user kills cifs oplock kernel thread or
282kills the cifsd thread (NB: killing the cifs kernel threads is not
283recommended, unmount and rmmod cifs will kill them when they are
68575476 284no longer needed). Fix readdir to ASCII servers (ie older servers
c0c3e8ed 285which do not support Unicode) and also require asterisk.
3079ca62
SF
286Fix out of memory case in which data could be written one page
287off in the page cache.
11aa0149 288
966ca923
SF
289Version 1.33
290------------
291Fix caching problem, in which readdir of directory containing a file
292which was cached could cause the file's time stamp to be updated
293without invalidating the readahead data (so we could get stale
294file data on the client for that file even as the server copy changed).
cd63499c
SF
295Cleanup response processing so cifsd can not loop when abnormally
296terminated.
966ca923
SF
297
298
f654bac2 299Version 1.32
1da177e4
LT
300------------
301Fix oops in ls when Transact2 FindFirst (or FindNext) returns more than one
302transact response for an SMB request and search entry split across two frames.
f654bac2
SF
303Add support for lsattr (getting ext2/ext3/reiserfs attr flags from the server)
304as new protocol extensions. Do not send Get/Set calls for POSIX ACLs
305unless server explicitly claims to support them in CIFS Unix extensions
ad009ac9 306POSIX ACL capability bit. Fix packet signing when multiuser mounting with
cbe0476f 307different users from the same client to the same server. Fix oops in
6a0b4824
SF
308cifs_close. Add mount option for remapping reserved characters in
309filenames (also allow recognizing files with created by SFU which have any
737b758c 310of these seven reserved characters, except backslash, to be recognized).
848f3fce 311Fix invalid transact2 message (we were sometimes trying to interpret
099a58f6
SF
312oplock breaks as SMB responses). Add ioctl for checking that the
313current uid matches the uid of the mounter (needed by umount.cifs).
314Reduce the number of large buffer allocations in cifs response processing
315(significantly reduces memory pressure under heavy stress with multiple
316processes accessing the same server at the same time).
f654bac2
SF
317
318Version 1.31
319------------
1da177e4
LT
320Fix updates of DOS attributes and time fields so that files on NT4 servers
321do not get marked delete on close. Display sizes of cifs buffer pools in
322cifs stats. Fix oops in unmount when cifsd thread being killed by
323shutdown. Add generic readv/writev and aio support. Report inode numbers
324consistently in readdir and lookup (when serverino mount option is
325specified use the inode number that the server reports - for both lookup
326and readdir, otherwise by default the locally generated inode number is used
327for inodes created in either path since servers are not always able to
328provide unique inode numbers when exporting multiple volumes from under one
329sharename).
330
331Version 1.30
332------------
333Allow new nouser_xattr mount parm to disable xattr support for user namespace.
334Do not flag user_xattr mount parm in dmesg. Retry failures setting file time
335(mostly affects NT4 servers) by retry with handle based network operation.
336Add new POSIX Query FS Info for returning statfs info more accurately.
337Handle passwords with multiple commas in them.
338
339Version 1.29
340------------
341Fix default mode in sysfs of cifs module parms. Remove old readdir routine.
342Fix capabilities flags for large readx so as to allow reads larger than 64K.
343
344Version 1.28
345------------
346Add module init parm for large SMB buffer size (to allow it to be changed
347from its default of 16K) which is especially useful for large file copy
348when mounting with the directio mount option. Fix oops after
349returning from mount when experimental ExtendedSecurity enabled and
350SpnegoNegotiated returning invalid error. Fix case to retry better when
351peek returns from 1 to 3 bytes on socket which should have more data.
352Fixed path based calls (such as cifs lookup) to handle path names
353longer than 530 (now can handle PATH_MAX). Fix pass through authentication
354from Samba server to DC (Samba required dummy LM password).
355
356Version 1.27
357------------
358Turn off DNOTIFY (directory change notification support) by default
359(unless built with the experimental flag) to fix hang with KDE
360file browser. Fix DNOTIFY flag mappings. Fix hang (in wait_event
361waiting on an SMB response) in SendReceive when session dies but
362reconnects quickly from another task. Add module init parms for
363minimum number of large and small network buffers in the buffer pools,
364and for the maximum number of simultaneous requests.
365
366Version 1.26
367------------
368Add setfacl support to allow setting of ACLs remotely to Samba 3.10 and later
369and other POSIX CIFS compliant servers. Fix error mapping for getfacl
370to EOPNOTSUPP when server does not support posix acls on the wire. Fix
371improperly zeroed buffer in CIFS Unix extensions set times call.
372
373Version 1.25
374------------
c0c3e8ed 375Fix internationalization problem in cifs readdir with filenames that map to
4de151d8 376longer UTF-8 strings than the string on the wire was in Unicode. Add workaround
1da177e4
LT
377for readdir to netapp servers. Fix search rewind (seek into readdir to return
378non-consecutive entries). Do not do readdir when server negotiates
379buffer size to small to fit filename. Add support for reading POSIX ACLs from
380the server (add also acl and noacl mount options).
381
382Version 1.24
383------------
384Optionally allow using server side inode numbers, rather than client generated
385ones by specifying mount option "serverino" - this is required for some apps
386to work which double check hardlinked files and have persistent inode numbers.
387
388Version 1.23
389------------
390Multiple bigendian fixes. On little endian systems (for reconnect after
391network failure) fix tcp session reconnect code so we do not try first
392to reconnect on reverse of port 445. Treat reparse points (NTFS junctions)
393as directories rather than symlinks because we can do follow link on them.
394
395Version 1.22
396------------
397Add config option to enable XATTR (extended attribute) support, mapping
398xattr names in the "user." namespace space to SMB/CIFS EAs. Lots of
399minor fixes pointed out by the Stanford SWAT checker (mostly missing
400or out of order NULL pointer checks in little used error paths).
401
402Version 1.21
403------------
404Add new mount parm to control whether mode check (generic_permission) is done
405on the client. If Unix extensions are enabled and the uids on the client
406and server do not match, client permission checks are meaningless on
407server uids that do not exist on the client (this does not affect the
408normal ACL check which occurs on the server). Fix default uid
409on mknod to match create and mkdir. Add optional mount parm to allow
410override of the default uid behavior (in which the server sets the uid
411and gid of newly created files). Normally for network filesystem mounts
412user want the server to set the uid/gid on newly created files (rather than
413using uid of the client processes you would in a local filesystem).
414
415Version 1.20
416------------
417Make transaction counts more consistent. Merge /proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps
418info into /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData. Fix oops in rare oops in readdir
419(in build_wildcard_path_from_dentry). Fix mknod to pass type field
420(block/char/fifo) properly. Remove spurious mount warning log entry when
421credentials passed as mount argument. Set major/minor device number in
422inode for block and char devices when unix extensions enabled.
423
424Version 1.19
425------------
426Fix /proc/fs/cifs/Stats and DebugData display to handle larger
427amounts of return data. Properly limit requests to MAX_REQ (50
428is the usual maximum active multiplex SMB/CIFS requests per server).
429Do not kill cifsd (and thus hurt the other SMB session) when more than one
430session to the same server (but with different userids) exists and one
431of the two user's smb sessions is being removed while leaving the other.
432Do not loop reconnecting in cifsd demultiplex thread when admin
433kills the thread without going through unmount.
434
435Version 1.18
436------------
437Do not rename hardlinked files (since that should be a noop). Flush
438cached write behind data when reopening a file after session abend,
439except when already in write. Grab per socket sem during reconnect
440to avoid oops in sendmsg if overlapping with reconnect. Do not
441reset cached inode file size on readdir for files open for write on
442client.
443
444
445Version 1.17
446------------
447Update number of blocks in file so du command is happier (in Linux a fake
448blocksize of 512 is required for calculating number of blocks in inode).
449Fix prepare write of partial pages to read in data from server if possible.
450Fix race on tcpStatus field between unmount and reconnection code, causing
451cifsd process sometimes to hang around forever. Improve out of memory
452checks in cifs_filldir
453
454Version 1.16
455------------
456Fix incorrect file size in file handle based setattr on big endian hardware.
457Fix oops in build_path_from_dentry when out of memory. Add checks for invalid
458and closing file structs in writepage/partialpagewrite. Add statistics
459for each mounted share (new menuconfig option). Fix endianness problem in
460volume information displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData (only affects
461affects big endian architectures). Prevent renames while constructing
462path names for open, mkdir and rmdir.
463
464Version 1.15
465------------
466Change to mempools for alloc smb request buffers and multiplex structs
467to better handle low memory problems (and potential deadlocks).
468
469Version 1.14
470------------
471Fix incomplete listings of large directories on Samba servers when Unix
472extensions enabled. Fix oops when smb_buffer can not be allocated. Fix
473rename deadlock when writing out dirty pages at same time.
474
475Version 1.13
476------------
477Fix open of files in which O_CREATE can cause the mode to change in
478some cases. Fix case in which retry of write overlaps file close.
479Fix PPC64 build error. Reduce excessive stack usage in smb password
480hashing. Fix overwrite of Linux user's view of file mode to Windows servers.
481
482Version 1.12
483------------
484Fixes for large file copy, signal handling, socket retry, buffer
485allocation and low memory situations.
486
487Version 1.11
488------------
489Better port 139 support to Windows servers (RFC1001/RFC1002 Session_Initialize)
490also now allowing support for specifying client netbiosname. NT4 support added.
491
492Version 1.10
493------------
494Fix reconnection (and certain failed mounts) to properly wake up the
495blocked users thread so it does not seem hung (in some cases was blocked
496until the cifs receive timeout expired). Fix spurious error logging
497to kernel log when application with open network files killed.
498
499Version 1.09
500------------
501Fix /proc/fs module unload warning message (that could be logged
502to the kernel log). Fix intermittent failure in connectathon
503test7 (hardlink count not immediately refreshed in case in which
504inode metadata can be incorrectly kept cached when time near zero)
505
506Version 1.08
507------------
508Allow file_mode and dir_mode (specified at mount time) to be enforced
509locally (the server already enforced its own ACLs too) for servers
510that do not report the correct mode (do not support the
511CIFS Unix Extensions).
512
513Version 1.07
514------------
515Fix some small memory leaks in some unmount error paths. Fix major leak
516of cache pages in readpages causing multiple read oriented stress
517testcases (including fsx, and even large file copy) to fail over time.
518
519Version 1.06
520------------
521Send NTCreateX with ATTR_POSIX if Linux/Unix extensions negotiated with server.
522This allows files that differ only in case and improves performance of file
523creation and file open to such servers. Fix semaphore conflict which causes
524slow delete of open file to Samba (which unfortunately can cause an oplock
525break to self while vfs_unlink held i_sem) which can hang for 20 seconds.
526
527Version 1.05
528------------
529fixes to cifs_readpages for fsx test case
530
531Version 1.04
532------------
533Fix caching data integrity bug when extending file size especially when no
534oplock on file. Fix spurious logging of valid already parsed mount options
535that are parsed outside of the cifs vfs such as nosuid.
536
537
538Version 1.03
539------------
540Connect to server when port number override not specified, and tcp port
541unitialized. Reset search to restart at correct file when kernel routine
542filldir returns error during large directory searches (readdir).
543
544Version 1.02
545------------
546Fix caching problem when files opened by multiple clients in which
547page cache could contain stale data, and write through did
548not occur often enough while file was still open when read ahead
549(read oplock) not allowed. Treat "sep=" when first mount option
c0c3e8ed 550as an override of comma as the default separator between mount
1da177e4
LT
551options.
552
553Version 1.01
554------------
555Allow passwords longer than 16 bytes. Allow null password string.
556

c0c3e8ed 560Windows 98 that terminate tcp sessions during protocol negotiation. Handle
1da177e4
LT
561embedded commas in mount parsing of passwords.
562
563Version 0.99
564------------
565Invalidate local inode cached pages on oplock break and when last file
566instance is closed so that the client does not continue using stale local
567copy rather than later modified server copy of file. Do not reconnect
568when server drops the tcp session prematurely before negotiate
c0c3e8ed 569protocol response. Fix oops in reopen_file when dentry freed. Allow
1da177e4
LT
570the support for CIFS Unix Extensions to be disabled via proc interface.
571
572Version 0.98
573------------
574Fix hang in commit_write during reconnection of open files under heavy load.
575Fix unload_nls oops in a mount failure path. Serialize writes to same socket
576which also fixes any possible races when cifs signatures are enabled in SMBs
577being sent out of signature sequence number order.
578
579Version 0.97
580------------
581Fix byte range locking bug (endian problem) causing bad offset and
582length.
583
584Version 0.96
585------------
586Fix oops (in send_sig) caused by CIFS unmount code trying to
587wake up the demultiplex thread after it had exited. Do not log
588error on harmless oplock release of closed handle.
589
590Version 0.95
591------------
592Fix unsafe global variable usage and password hash failure on gcc 3.3.1

654redundant NTCreate/QPathInfo/close that was sent during file create.
655Enable oplock by default. Enable packet signing by default (needed to
656access many recent Windows servers)
657
658Version 0.83
659------------
660Fix oops when mounting to long server names caused by inverted parms to kmalloc.
661Fix MultiuserMount (/proc/fs/cifs configuration setting) so that when enabled
662we will choose a cifs user session (smb uid) that better matches the local

713presence or absence of read only dos attribute in mode
714bits for servers that do not support CIFS Unix extensions.
715Fix shortened results on readdir of large directories to
716servers supporting CIFS Unix extensions (caused by

743mount). Add support for overriding rsize at mount time.
744
745Version 0.69
746------------
747Fix buffer overrun in readdir which caused intermittent kernel oopses.
748Fix writepage code to release kmap on write data. Allow "-ip=" new
749mount option to be passed in on parameter distinct from the first part
750(server name portion of) the UNC name. Allow override of the
751tcp port of the target server via new mount option "-port="
752
753Version 0.68
754------------

758
759
760Version 0.67
761------------
762Fix signal sending so that captive thread (cifsd) exits on umount
763(which was causing the warning in kmem_cache_free of the request buffers
764at rmmod time). This had broken as a sideeffect of the recent global
765kernel change to daemonize. Fix memory leak in readdir code which
766showed up in "ls -R" (and applications that did search rewinding).
767
768Version 0.66
769------------

784fail to Windows servers. Cleaned up some extraneous error logging in
785common error paths. Add generic sendfile support.
786
787Version 0.63
788------------
789Fix memory leak in AllocMidQEntry.
790Finish reconnection logic, so connection with server can be dropped
791(or server rebooted) and the cifs client will reconnect.
792
793Version 0.62
794------------
795Fix temporary socket leak when bad userid or password specified
796(or other SMBSessSetup failure). Increase maximum buffer size to slightly

801------------
802Fix oops when username not passed in on mount. Extensive fixes and improvements
803to error logging (strip redundant newlines, change debug macros to ensure newline
804passed in and to be more consistent). Fix writepage wrong file handle problem,
805a readonly file handle could be incorrectly used to attempt to write out
806file updates through the page cache to multiply open files. This could cause
807the iozone benchmark to fail on the fwrite test. Fix bug mounting two different
808shares to the same Windows server when using different usernames
809(doing this to Samba servers worked but Windows was rejecting it) - now it is
810possible to use different userids when connecting to the same server from a
811Linux client. Fix oops when treeDisconnect called during unmount on
812previously freed socket.
813
814Version 0.60

957------------
9581) Fixed lockrange to be correct (it was one byte too short)
959
9602) Fixed GETLK (i.e. the fcntl call to test a range of bytes in a file to see if locked) to correctly
961show range as locked when there is a conflict with an existing lock.
962
9633) default file perms are now 2767 (indicating support for mandatory locks) instead of 777 for directories
964in most cases. Eventually will offer optional ability to query server for the correct perms.
965
9663) Fixed eventual trap when mounting twice to different shares on the same server when the first succeeded
967but the second one was invalid and failed (the second one was incorrectly disconnecting the tcp and smb
968session)
969
9704) Fixed error logging of valid mount options
971
9725) Removed logging of password field.
973
9746) Moved negotiate, treeDisconnect and uloggoffX (only tConx and SessSetup remain in connect.c) to cifssmb.c
975and cleaned them up and made them more consistent with other cifs functions.

9777) Server support for Unix extensions is now fully detected and FindFirst is implemented both ways
c0c3e8ed 978(with or without Unix extensions) but FindNext and QueryPathInfo with the Unix extensions are not completed,
