CommitLineData
eafe8701
SF
1Version 1.37
2------------
3Fix readdir caching when unlink removes file in current search buffer,
4and this is followed by a rewind search to just before the deleted entry.
e30dcf3a 5Do not attempt to set ctime unless atime and/or mtime change requested
20962438
SF
6(most servers throw it away anyway). Fix length check of received smbs
7to be more accurate.
eafe8701 8
c46fa8ac
SF
9Version 1.36
10------------
c0c3e8ed 11Add support for mounting to older pre-CIFS servers such as Windows9x and ME.
6b8edfe0 12For these older servers, add option for passing netbios name of server in
16abbecd
SF
13on mount (servernetbiosname). Add suspend support for power management, to
14avoid cifsd thread preventing software suspend from working.
c46fa8ac
SF
15Add mount option for disabling the default behavior of sending byte range lock
16requests to the server (necessary for certain applications which break with
17mandatory lock behavior such as Evolution), and also mount option for
18requesting case insensitive matching for path based requests (requesting
19case sensitive is the default).
20
f4cfd69c
SF
21Version 1.35
22------------
23Add writepage performance improvements. Fix path name conversions
24for long filenames on mounts which were done with "mapchars" mount option
a10faeb2
SF
25specified. Ensure multiplex ids do not collide. Fix case in which
26rmmod can oops if done soon after last unmount. Fix truncated
27search (readdir) output when resume filename was a long filename.
28Fix filename conversion when mapchars mount option was specified and
29filename was a long filename.
f4cfd69c 30
11aa0149
SF
31Version 1.34
32------------
33Fix error mapping of the TOO_MANY_LINKS (hardlinks) case.
31ca3bc3
SF
34Do not oops if root user kills cifs oplock kernel thread or
35kills the cifsd thread (NB: killing the cifs kernel threads is not
36recommended, unmount and rmmod cifs will kill them when they are
68575476 37no longer needed). Fix readdir to ASCII servers (ie older servers
c0c3e8ed 38which do not support Unicode) and also require asterisk.
3079ca62
SF
39Fix out of memory case in which data could be written one page
40off in the page cache.
11aa0149 41
966ca923
SF
42Version 1.33
43------------
44Fix caching problem, in which readdir of directory containing a file
45which was cached could cause the file's time stamp to be updated
46without invalidating the readahead data (so we could get stale
47file data on the client for that file even as the server copy changed).
cd63499c
SF
48Cleanup response processing so cifsd can not loop when abnormally
49terminated.
966ca923
SF
50
51
f654bac2 52Version 1.32
1da177e4
LT
53------------
54Fix oops in ls when Transact2 FindFirst (or FindNext) returns more than one
55transact response for an SMB request and search entry split across two frames.
f654bac2
SF
56Add support for lsattr (getting ext2/ext3/reiserfs attr flags from the server)
57as new protocol extensions. Do not send Get/Set calls for POSIX ACLs
58unless server explicitly claims to support them in CIFS Unix extensions
ad009ac9 59POSIX ACL capability bit. Fix packet signing when multiuser mounting with
cbe0476f 60different users from the same client to the same server. Fix oops in
6a0b4824
SF
61cifs_close. Add mount option for remapping reserved characters in
62filenames (also allow recognizing files with created by SFU which have any
737b758c 63of these seven reserved characters, except backslash, to be recognized).
848f3fce 64Fix invalid transact2 message (we were sometimes trying to interpret
099a58f6
SF
65oplock breaks as SMB responses). Add ioctl for checking that the
66current uid matches the uid of the mounter (needed by umount.cifs).
67Reduce the number of large buffer allocations in cifs response processing
68(significantly reduces memory pressure under heavy stress with multiple
69processes accessing the same server at the same time).
f654bac2
SF
70
71Version 1.31
72------------
1da177e4
LT
73Fix updates of DOS attributes and time fields so that files on NT4 servers
74do not get marked delete on close. Display sizes of cifs buffer pools in
75cifs stats. Fix oops in unmount when cifsd thread being killed by
76shutdown. Add generic readv/writev and aio support. Report inode numbers
77consistently in readdir and lookup (when serverino mount option is
78specified use the inode number that the server reports - for both lookup
79and readdir, otherwise by default the locally generated inode number is used
80for inodes created in either path since servers are not always able to
81provide unique inode numbers when exporting multiple volumes from under one
82sharename).
83
84Version 1.30
85------------
86Allow new nouser_xattr mount parm to disable xattr support for user namespace.
87Do not flag user_xattr mount parm in dmesg. Retry failures setting file time
88(mostly affects NT4 servers) by retry with handle based network operation.
89Add new POSIX Query FS Info for returning statfs info more accurately.
90Handle passwords with multiple commas in them.
91
92Version 1.29
93------------
94Fix default mode in sysfs of cifs module parms. Remove old readdir routine.
95Fix capabilities flags for large readx so as to allow reads larger than 64K.
96
97Version 1.28
98------------
99Add module init parm for large SMB buffer size (to allow it to be changed
100from its default of 16K) which is especially useful for large file copy
101when mounting with the directio mount option. Fix oops after
102returning from mount when experimental ExtendedSecurity enabled and
103SpnegoNegotiated returning invalid error. Fix case to retry better when
104peek returns from 1 to 3 bytes on socket which should have more data.
105Fixed path based calls (such as cifs lookup) to handle path names
106longer than 530 (now can handle PATH_MAX). Fix pass through authentication
107from Samba server to DC (Samba required dummy LM password).
108
109Version 1.27
110------------
111Turn off DNOTIFY (directory change notification support) by default
112(unless built with the experimental flag) to fix hang with KDE
113file browser. Fix DNOTIFY flag mappings. Fix hang (in wait_event
114waiting on an SMB response) in SendReceive when session dies but
115reconnects quickly from another task. Add module init parms for
116minimum number of large and small network buffers in the buffer pools,
117and for the maximum number of simultaneous requests.
118
119Version 1.26
120------------
121Add setfacl support to allow setting of ACLs remotely to Samba 3.10 and later
122and other POSIX CIFS compliant servers. Fix error mapping for getfacl
123to EOPNOTSUPP when server does not support posix acls on the wire. Fix
124improperly zeroed buffer in CIFS Unix extensions set times call.
125
126Version 1.25
127------------
c0c3e8ed 128Fix internationalization problem in cifs readdir with filenames that map to
1da177e4
LT
129longer UTF8 strings than the string on the wire was in Unicode. Add workaround
130for readdir to netapp servers. Fix search rewind (seek into readdir to return
131non-consecutive entries). Do not do readdir when server negotiates
132buffer size to small to fit filename. Add support for reading POSIX ACLs from
133the server (add also acl and noacl mount options).
134
135Version 1.24
136------------
137Optionally allow using server side inode numbers, rather than client generated
138ones by specifying mount option "serverino" - this is required for some apps
139to work which double check hardlinked files and have persistent inode numbers.
140
141Version 1.23
142------------
143Multiple bigendian fixes. On little endian systems (for reconnect after
144network failure) fix tcp session reconnect code so we do not try first
145to reconnect on reverse of port 445. Treat reparse points (NTFS junctions)
146as directories rather than symlinks because we can do follow link on them.
147
148Version 1.22
149------------
150Add config option to enable XATTR (extended attribute) support, mapping
151xattr names in the "user." namespace space to SMB/CIFS EAs. Lots of
152minor fixes pointed out by the Stanford SWAT checker (mostly missing
153or out of order NULL pointer checks in little used error paths).
154
155Version 1.21
156------------
157Add new mount parm to control whether mode check (generic_permission) is done
158on the client. If Unix extensions are enabled and the uids on the client
159and server do not match, client permission checks are meaningless on
160server uids that do not exist on the client (this does not affect the
161normal ACL check which occurs on the server). Fix default uid
162on mknod to match create and mkdir. Add optional mount parm to allow
163override of the default uid behavior (in which the server sets the uid
164and gid of newly created files). Normally for network filesystem mounts
165user want the server to set the uid/gid on newly created files (rather than
166using uid of the client processes you would in a local filesystem).
167
168Version 1.20
169------------
170Make transaction counts more consistent. Merge /proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps
171info into /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData. Fix oops in rare oops in readdir
172(in build_wildcard_path_from_dentry). Fix mknod to pass type field
173(block/char/fifo) properly. Remove spurious mount warning log entry when
174credentials passed as mount argument. Set major/minor device number in
175inode for block and char devices when unix extensions enabled.
176
177Version 1.19
178------------
179Fix /proc/fs/cifs/Stats and DebugData display to handle larger
180amounts of return data. Properly limit requests to MAX_REQ (50
181is the usual maximum active multiplex SMB/CIFS requests per server).
182Do not kill cifsd (and thus hurt the other SMB session) when more than one
183session to the same server (but with different userids) exists and one
184of the two user's smb sessions is being removed while leaving the other.
185Do not loop reconnecting in cifsd demultiplex thread when admin
186kills the thread without going through unmount.
187
188Version 1.18
189------------
190Do not rename hardlinked files (since that should be a noop). Flush
191cached write behind data when reopening a file after session abend,
192except when already in write. Grab per socket sem during reconnect
193to avoid oops in sendmsg if overlapping with reconnect. Do not
194reset cached inode file size on readdir for files open for write on
195client.
196
197
198Version 1.17
199------------
200Update number of blocks in file so du command is happier (in Linux a fake
201blocksize of 512 is required for calculating number of blocks in inode).
202Fix prepare write of partial pages to read in data from server if possible.
203Fix race on tcpStatus field between unmount and reconnection code, causing
204cifsd process sometimes to hang around forever. Improve out of memory
205checks in cifs_filldir
206
207Version 1.16
208------------
209Fix incorrect file size in file handle based setattr on big endian hardware.
210Fix oops in build_path_from_dentry when out of memory. Add checks for invalid
211and closing file structs in writepage/partialpagewrite. Add statistics
212for each mounted share (new menuconfig option). Fix endianness problem in
213volume information displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData (only affects
214affects big endian architectures). Prevent renames while constructing
215path names for open, mkdir and rmdir.
216
217Version 1.15
218------------
219Change to mempools for alloc smb request buffers and multiplex structs
220to better handle low memory problems (and potential deadlocks).
221
222Version 1.14
223------------
224Fix incomplete listings of large directories on Samba servers when Unix
225extensions enabled. Fix oops when smb_buffer can not be allocated. Fix
226rename deadlock when writing out dirty pages at same time.
227
228Version 1.13
229------------
230Fix open of files in which O_CREATE can cause the mode to change in
231some cases. Fix case in which retry of write overlaps file close.
232Fix PPC64 build error. Reduce excessive stack usage in smb password
233hashing. Fix overwrite of Linux user's view of file mode to Windows servers.
234
235Version 1.12
236------------
237Fixes for large file copy, signal handling, socket retry, buffer
238allocation and low memory situations.
239
240Version 1.11
241------------
242Better port 139 support to Windows servers (RFC1001/RFC1002 Session_Initialize)
243also now allowing support for specifying client netbiosname. NT4 support added.
244
245Version 1.10
246------------
247Fix reconnection (and certain failed mounts) to properly wake up the
248blocked users thread so it does not seem hung (in some cases was blocked
249until the cifs receive timeout expired). Fix spurious error logging
250to kernel log when application with open network files killed.
251
252Version 1.09
253------------
254Fix /proc/fs module unload warning message (that could be logged
255to the kernel log). Fix intermittent failure in connectathon
256test7 (hardlink count not immediately refreshed in case in which
257inode metadata can be incorrectly kept cached when time near zero)
258
259Version 1.08
260------------
261Allow file_mode and dir_mode (specified at mount time) to be enforced
262locally (the server already enforced its own ACLs too) for servers
263that do not report the correct mode (do not support the
264CIFS Unix Extensions).
265
266Version 1.07
267------------
268Fix some small memory leaks in some unmount error paths. Fix major leak
269of cache pages in readpages causing multiple read oriented stress
270testcases (including fsx, and even large file copy) to fail over time.
271
272Version 1.06
273------------
274Send NTCreateX with ATTR_POSIX if Linux/Unix extensions negotiated with server.
275This allows files that differ only in case and improves performance of file
276creation and file open to such servers. Fix semaphore conflict which causes
277slow delete of open file to Samba (which unfortunately can cause an oplock
278break to self while vfs_unlink held i_sem) which can hang for 20 seconds.
279
280Version 1.05
281------------
282fixes to cifs_readpages for fsx test case
283
284Version 1.04
285------------
286Fix caching data integrity bug when extending file size especially when no
287oplock on file. Fix spurious logging of valid already parsed mount options
288that are parsed outside of the cifs vfs such as nosuid.
289
290
291Version 1.03
292------------
293Connect to server when port number override not specified, and tcp port
294unitialized. Reset search to restart at correct file when kernel routine
295filldir returns error during large directory searches (readdir).
296
297Version 1.02
298------------
299Fix caching problem when files opened by multiple clients in which
300page cache could contain stale data, and write through did
301not occur often enough while file was still open when read ahead
302(read oplock) not allowed. Treat "sep=" when first mount option
c0c3e8ed 303as an override of comma as the default separator between mount
1da177e4
LT
304options.
305
306Version 1.01
307------------
308Allow passwords longer than 16 bytes. Allow null password string.
309
310Version 1.00
311------------
312Gracefully clean up failed mounts when attempting to mount to servers such as
c0c3e8ed 313Windows 98 that terminate tcp sessions during protocol negotiation. Handle
1da177e4
LT
314embedded commas in mount parsing of passwords.
315
316Version 0.99
317------------
318Invalidate local inode cached pages on oplock break and when last file
319instance is closed so that the client does not continue using stale local
320copy rather than later modified server copy of file. Do not reconnect
321when server drops the tcp session prematurely before negotiate
c0c3e8ed 322protocol response. Fix oops in reopen_file when dentry freed. Allow
1da177e4
LT
323the support for CIFS Unix Extensions to be disabled via proc interface.
324
325Version 0.98
326------------
327Fix hang in commit_write during reconnection of open files under heavy load.
328Fix unload_nls oops in a mount failure path. Serialize writes to same socket
329which also fixes any possible races when cifs signatures are enabled in SMBs
330being sent out of signature sequence number order.
331
332Version 0.97
333------------
334Fix byte range locking bug (endian problem) causing bad offset and
335length.
336
337Version 0.96
338------------
339Fix oops (in send_sig) caused by CIFS unmount code trying to
340wake up the demultiplex thread after it had exited. Do not log
341error on harmless oplock release of closed handle.
342
343Version 0.95
344------------
345Fix unsafe global variable usage and password hash failure on gcc 3.3.1
346Fix problem reconnecting secondary mounts to same server after session
347failure. Fix invalid dentry - race in mkdir when directory gets created
348by another client between the lookup and mkdir.
349
350Version 0.94
351------------
352Fix to list processing in reopen_files. Fix reconnection when server hung
353but tcpip session still alive. Set proper timeout on socket read.
354
355Version 0.93
356------------
357Add missing mount options including iocharset. SMP fixes in write and open.
358Fix errors in reconnecting after TCP session failure. Fix module unloading
359of default nls codepage
360
361Version 0.92
362------------
363Active smb transactions should never go negative (fix double FreeXid). Fix
364list processing in file routines. Check return code on kmalloc in open.
365Fix spinlock usage for SMP.
366
367Version 0.91
368------------
369Fix oops in reopen_files when invalid dentry. drop dentry on server rename
370and on revalidate errors. Fix cases where pid is now tgid. Fix return code
371on create hard link when server does not support them.
372
373Version 0.90

379------------
380Fix oops on write to dead tcp session. Remove error log write for case when file open
381O_CREAT but not O_EXCL
382
383Version 0.88
384------------
385Fix non-POSIX behavior on rename of open file and delete of open file by taking
386advantage of trans2 SetFileInfo rename facility if available on target server.
387Retry on ENOSPC and EAGAIN socket errors.
388
389Version 0.87
390------------
391Fix oops on big endian readdir. Set blksize to be even power of two (2**blkbits) to fix
392allocation size miscalculation. After oplock token lost do not read through
393cache.

402during auto reconnection to server after server recovered from failure.
403
404Version 0.84
405------------
406Finish support for Linux 2.5 open/create changes, which removes the
407redundant NTCreate/QPathInfo/close that was sent during file create.
408Enable oplock by default. Enable packet signing by default (needed to
409access many recent Windows servers)
410
411Version 0.83
412------------
413Fix oops when mounting to long server names caused by inverted parms to kmalloc.
414Fix MultiuserMount (/proc/fs/cifs configuration setting) so that when enabled
415we will choose a cifs user session (smb uid) that better matches the local
416uid if a) the mount uid does not match the current uid and b) we have another
417session to the same server (ip address) for a different mount which
418matches the current local uid.
419
420Version 0.82
421------------
422Add support for mknod of block or character devices. Fix oplock
423code (distributed caching) to properly send response to oplock
424break from server.
425
426Version 0.81
427------------
428Finish up CIFS packet digital signing for the default
429NTLM security case. This should help Windows 2003
430network interoperability since it is common for
431packet signing to be required now. Fix statfs (stat -f)
432which recently started returning errors due to
433invalid value (-1 instead of 0) being set in the
434struct kstatfs f_ffiles field.
435

437-----------
438Fix oops on stopping oplock thread when removing cifs when
439built as module.
440
441Version 0.79

448Fixed various incorrect or misleading smb to posix error code mappings.
449
450Version 0.77
451------------
452Fix display of NTFS DFS junctions to display as symlinks.
453They are the network equivalent. Fix oops in
454cifs_partialpagewrite caused by missing spinlock protection
455of openfile linked list. Allow writebehind caching errors to
456be returned to the application at file close.
457
458Version 0.76
459------------
460Clean up options displayed in /proc/mounts by show_options to
461be more consistent with other filesystems.
462
463Version 0.75
464------------
465Fix delete of readonly file to Windows servers. Reflect
466presence or absence of read only dos attribute in mode
467bits for servers that do not support CIFS Unix extensions.
468Fix shortened results on readdir of large directories to
469servers supporting CIFS Unix extensions (caused by
470incorrect resume key).
471
472Version 0.74
473------------
474Fix truncate bug (set file size) that could cause hangs e.g. running fsx
475
476Version 0.73
477------------
478unload nls if mount fails.
479
480Version 0.72
481------------
482Add resume key support to search (readdir) code to workaround
483Windows bug. Add /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnable which
484allows disabling caching of attribute information for
485lookups.
486
487Version 0.71
488------------
489Add more oplock handling (distributed caching code). Remove
490dead code. Remove excessive stack space utilization from
491symlink routines.
492
493Version 0.70
494------------
495Fix oops in get dfs referral (triggered when null path sent in to
496mount). Add support for overriding rsize at mount time.
497
498Version 0.69
499------------
500Fix buffer overrun in readdir which caused intermittent kernel oopses.
501Fix writepage code to release kmap on write data. Allow "-ip=" new
502mount option to be passed in on parameter distinct from the first part
503(server name portion of) the UNC name. Allow override of the
504tcp port of the target server via new mount option "-port="
505
506Version 0.68
507------------
508Fix search handle leak on rewind. Fix setuid and gid so that they are
509reflected in the local inode immediately. Cleanup of whitespace
510to make 2.4 and 2.5 versions more consistent.
511
512
513Version 0.67
514------------
515Fix signal sending so that captive thread (cifsd) exits on umount
516(which was causing the warning in kmem_cache_free of the request buffers
517at rmmod time). This had broken as a sideeffect of the recent global
518kernel change to daemonize. Fix memory leak in readdir code which
519showed up in "ls -R" (and applications that did search rewinding).
520
521Version 0.66
522------------
523Reconnect tids and fids after session reconnection (still do not
524reconnect byte range locks though). Fix problem caching
525lookup information for directory inodes, improving performance,
526especially in deep directory trees. Fix various build warnings.
527
528Version 0.65
529------------
530Finish fixes to commit write for caching/readahead consistency. fsx
531now works to Samba servers. Fix oops caused when readahead
532was interrupted by a signal.
533
534Version 0.64
535------------
536Fix data corruption (in partial page after truncate) that caused fsx to
537fail to Windows servers. Cleaned up some extraneous error logging in
538common error paths. Add generic sendfile support.
539
540Version 0.63
541------------
542Fix memory leak in AllocMidQEntry.
543Finish reconnection logic, so connection with server can be dropped
544(or server rebooted) and the cifs client will reconnect.
545
546Version 0.62
547------------
548Fix temporary socket leak when bad userid or password specified
549(or other SMBSessSetup failure). Increase maximum buffer size to slightly
550over 16K to allow negotiation of up to Samba and Windows server default read
551sizes. Add support for readpages
552
553Version 0.61
554------------
555Fix oops when username not passed in on mount. Extensive fixes and improvements
556to error logging (strip redundant newlines, change debug macros to ensure newline
557passed in and to be more consistent). Fix writepage wrong file handle problem,
558a readonly file handle could be incorrectly used to attempt to write out
559file updates through the page cache to multiply open files. This could cause
560the iozone benchmark to fail on the fwrite test. Fix bug mounting two different
561shares to the same Windows server when using different usernames
562(doing this to Samba servers worked but Windows was rejecting it) - now it is
563possible to use different userids when connecting to the same server from a
564Linux client. Fix oops when treeDisconnect called during unmount on
565previously freed socket.
566
