2007-07-11[CIFS] Fix oops in cifs_create when nfsd server exports cifs mountSteve French
nfsd is passing null nameidata (probably the only one doing that) on call to create - cifs was missing one check for this. Note that running nfsd over a cifs mount requires specifying fsid on the nfs exports entry and requires mounting cifs with serverino mount option. Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

2007-07-06[CIFS] Mount should fail if server signing off but client mount option ↵Jeff
requires it Currently, if mount with a signing-enabled sec= option (e.g. sec=ntlmi), the kernel does a warning printk if the server doesn't support signing, and then proceeds without signatures. This is probably OK for people that think to look at the ring buffer, but seems wrong to me. If someone explicitly requests signing, we should error out if that request can't be satisfied. They can then reattempt the mount without signing if that's ok. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

2007-05-05[CIFS] Make sec=none force an anonymous mountJeff Layton
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. Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
2007-04-30[CIFS] UID/GID override on CIFS mounts to SambaSteve French
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).

2007-04-25[CIFS] Add IPv6 supportSteve French
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.

2007-04-06[CIFS] Add write perm for usr to file on windows should remove r/o dos attrSteve French
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. Suggested by: Urs Fleisch Signed-off-by: Urs Fleisch <urs.fleisch@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
2007-03-23[CIFS] Allow reset of file to ATTR_NORMAL when archive bit not setSteve French
When a file had a dos attribute of 0x1 (readonly - but dos attribute of archive was not set) - doing chmod 0777 or equivalent would try to set a dos attribute of 0 (which some servers ignore) rather than ATTR_NORMAL (0x20) which most servers accept. Does not affect servers which support the CIFS Unix Extensions.

2006-06-08[CIFS] NTLMv2 support part 5Steve French
NTLMv2 authentication (stronger authentication than default NTLM) which many servers support now works. There was a problem with the construction of the security blob in the older code. Currently requires /proc/fs/cifs/Experimental to be set to 2 and /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags to be set to 0x4004 (to require using NTLMv2 instead of default of NTLM) Next we will check signing to make sure optional NTLMv2 packet signing also works.
