We do this by abandoning the global list of SMB sessions and instead
moving to a per-server list. This entails adding a new list head to the
TCP_Server_Info struct. The refcounting for the cifsSesInfo is moved to
a non-atomic variable. We have to protect it by a lock anyway, so there's
no benefit to making it an atomic. The list and refcount are protected
by the global cifs_tcp_ses_lock.

We want to continue to share TCP sessions, however since they are

We're currently declaring both a sockaddr_in and sockaddr6_in on the
stack, but we really only need storage for one of them. Declare a
sockaddr struct and cast it to the proper type. Also, eliminate the
protocolType field in the TCP_Server_Info struct. It's redundant since
we have a sa_family field in the sockaddr anyway.
We may need to revisit this if SCTP is ever implemented, but for now
this will simplify the code.
CIFS over IPv6 also has a number of problems currently. This fixes all
of them that I found. Eventually, it would be nice to move more of the

In preparation for Jeff's big umount/mount fixes to remove the possibility of
various races in cifs mount and linked list handling of sessions, sockets and
tree connections, this patch cleans up some repetitive code in cifs_mount,
and addresses a problem with ses->status and tcon->tidStatus in which we
were overloading the "need_reconnect" state with other status in that
field. So the "need_reconnect" flag has been broken out from those
two state fields (need reconnect was not mutually exclusive from some of the
other possible tid and ses states). In addition, a few exit cases in
cifs_mount were cleaned up, and a problem with a tcon flag (for lease support)
was not being set consistently for the 2nd mount of the same share

CIFS in some heavy stress conditions cifs could get EAGAIN
repeatedly in smb_send2 which led to repeated retries and eventually
failure of large writes which could lead to data corruption.
There are three changes that were suggested by various network
developers:
1) convert cifs from non-blocking to blocking tcp sendmsg
(we left in the retry on failure)
2) change cifs to not set sendbuf and rcvbuf size for the socket
(let tcp autotune the buffer sizes since that works much better
in the TCP stack now)
3) if we have a partial frame sent in smb_send2, mark the tcp
session as invalid (close the socket and reconnect) so we do
not corrupt the remaining part of the SMB with the beginning
of the next SMB.
This does not appear to hurt performance measurably and has
been run in various scenarios, but it definately removes
a corruption that we were seeing in some high stress
test cases.

fcntl(F_SETLEASE) currently is not exported by cifs (nor by local file

opened the file not by whether the file is cacheable (oplocked). This
adds the check to make sure that the file is cacheable on the client
before checking whether we can grant the lease locally
(generic_setlease). It also adds a mount option for cifs (locallease)
if the user wants to override this and try to grant leases even
if the server did not grant oplock.

When cifs_demultiplex_thread was converted to a kthread based kernel
thread, great pains were taken to make it so that kthread_stop would be
used to bring it down. This just added unnecessary complexity since we
needed to use a signal anyway to break out of kernel_recvmsg.
Also, cifs_demultiplex_thread does a bit of cleanup as it's exiting, and
we need to be certain that this gets done. It's possible for a kthread
to exit before its main function is ever run if kthread_stop is called
soon after its creation. While I'm not sure that this is a real problem
with cifsd now, it could be at some point in the future if cifs_mount is
ever changed to bring down the thread quickly.
The upshot here is that using kthread_stop to bring down the thread just
adds extra complexity with no real benefit. This patch changes the code
to use the original method to bring down the thread, but still leaves it
so that the thread is actually started with kthread_run.

when unix extensions and cifsacl support are disabled. These
permissions changes are "ephemeral" however. They are lost whenever

Because of this, we'd like to introduce a behavior change to make
CIFS behave more like local DOS/Windows filesystems. When unix
extensions and cifsacl support aren't enabled, then don't silently
ignore changes to permission bits that can't be reflected on the
server.
Still, there may be people relying on the current behavior for
certain applications. This patch adds a new "dynperm" (and a
corresponding "nodynperm") mount option that will be intended
to make the client fall back to legacy behavior when setting

cifs_demultiplex_thread can exit under several conditions:
1) if it's signaled
2) if there's a problem with session setup
3) if kthread_stop is called on it
The first two are problems. If kthread_stop is called on the thread,
there is no guarantee that it will still be up. We need to have the
thread stay up until kthread_stop is called on it.
One option would be to not even try to tear things down until after
kthread_stop is called. However, in the case where there is a problem
setting up the session, there's no real reason to try continuing the
loop.
This patch allows the thread to clean up and prepare for exit under all
three conditions, but it has the thread go to sleep until kthread_stop
is called. This allows us to simplify the shutdown code somewhat since
we can be reasonably sure that the thread won't exit after being
signaled but before kthread_stop is called.
It also removes the places where the thread itself set the tsk variable
since it appeared that it could have a potential race where the thread
might never be shut down.

As best I can tell, this sleep was intended to try to prevent

exited. Now that cifsd is using the kthread API, we know that
when kthread_stop returns that cifsd has exited, so I don't

Currently, when we get a prefixpath as part of mount, the kernel only
changes the first character to be a '/' or '\' depending on whether
posix extensions are enabled. This is problematic as it expects
mount.cifs to pass in the correct delimiter in the rest of the
prefixpath. But, mount.cifs may not know *what* the correct delimiter
is. It's a chicken and egg problem.
Note that mount.cifs should not do conversion of the
prefixpath - if we want posix behavior then '\' is legal in a path
(and we have had bugs in the distant path to prove to me that
customers sometimes have apps that require '\'). The kernel code
assumes that the path passed in is posix (and current code will handle
the first path component fine but was broken for Windows mounts
for "deep" prefixpaths unless the user specified a prefixpath with '\'
deep in it. So e.g. with current kernel code:
1) mount to //server/share/dir1 will work to all server types
2) mount to //server/share/dir1/subdir1 will work to Samba
3) mount to //server/share/dir1\\subdir1 will work to Windows
But case two would fail to Windows without the fix.
With the kernel cifs module fix case two now works.

When cifs_mount finds an existing SMB session that it can use for a new
mount, it does not check to see whether that session is in need of being
reconnected. An easy way to reproduce:
1) mount //server/share1
2) watch /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData for the share to go DISCONNECTED
3) mount //server/share2 with same creds as in step 1.
The second mount will fail because CIFSTCon returned -EAGAIN. If you do
an operation in share1 and then reattempt the mount it will work (since
the session is reestablished).
The following patch fixes this by having cifs_mount check the status
of the session when it picks an existing session and calling
cifs_setup_session on it again if it's in need of reconnection.

functions to see if there is an existing unc or tcp connection that can

kernel will oops if there's an existing session to which the string

When kernel_recvmsg returns -EAGAIN or -ERESTARTSYS, then
cifs_demultiplex_thread sleeps for a bit and then tries the read again.
When it does this, it's not zeroing out the length and that throws off
the value of total_read. Fix it to zero out the length.
Can cause memory corruption:
If kernel_recvmsg returns an error and total_read is a large enough
value, then we'll end up going through the loop again. total_read will
be a bogus value, as will (pdu_length-total_read). When this happens we
end up calling kernel_recvmsg with a bogus value (possibly larger than
the current iov_len).
At that point, memcpy_toiovec can overrun iov. It will start walking
up the stack, casting other things that are there to struct iovecs
(since it assumes that it's been passed an array of them). Any pointer
on the stack at an address above the kvec is a candidate for corruption
here.

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

(zeroing server->tsk) before kthread_stop is called, the
cifs_mount code could pass a null pointer to kthread_stop
Thanks to akpm, Dave Young and Shaggy for suggesting
earlier versions of this patch.

We had a customer report that attempting to make CIFS mount with a null
username (i.e. doing an anonymous mount) doesn't work. Looking through the
code, it looks like CIFS expects a NULL username from userspace in order
to trigger an anonymous mount. The mount.cifs code doesn't seem to ever
pass a null username to the kernel, however.
It looks also like the kernel can take a sec=none option, but it only seems
to look at it if the username is already NULL. This seems redundant and
effectively makes sec=none useless.
The following patch makes sec=none force an anonymous mount.

When CIFS Unix Extensions are negotiated we get the Unix uid and gid
owners of the file from the server (on the Unix Query Path Info
levels), but if the server's uids don't match the client uid's users
were having to disable the Unix Extensions (which turned off features
they still wanted). The changeset patch allows users to override uid
and/or gid for file/directory owner with a default uid and/or gid
specified at mount (as is often done when mounting from Linux cifs
client to Windows server). This changeset also displays the uid
and gid used by default in /proc/mounts (if applicable).
Also cleans up code by adding some of the missing spaces after
"if" keywords per-kernel style guidelines (as suggested by Randy Dunlap
when he reviewed the patch).

IPv6 support was started a few years ago in the cifs client, but lacked a
kernel helper function for parsing the ascii form of the ipv6 address. Now
that that is added (and now IPv6 is the default that some OS use now) it
was fairly easy to finish the cifs ipv6 support. This requires that
CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL be enabled and (at least until the mount.cifs module is
modified to use a new ipv6 friendly call instead of gethostbyname) and the
ipv6 address be passed on the mount as "ip=" mount option.
Thanks

After temporary server or network failure and reconneciton, we were not
resending the unix capabilities via SetFSInfo - which confused Samba posix

Move process freezing functions from include/linux/sched.h to freezer.h, so
that modifications to the freezer or the kernel configuration don't require
recompiling just about everything.

Fix dialect negotiation to save off when we have negotiated lanman.
This allows us to avoid sending some somewhat newer requests that the server
can not handle and go directly to the older version (infolevel) of the same
call. Make sure we try to negotiate a level which allows us to get the
server OS (which we check so we can detect Win9x vs. other legacy servers
and eventually work around the Win9x DOS time bug (they reverse date/time
fields).
