1Version 1.40
2------------
3Use fsuid (fsgid) more consistently instead of uid (gid).
4
23e7dd7d
SF
5Version 1.39
6------------
3abb9272 7Defer close of a file handle slightly if pending writes depend on that handle
23e7dd7d 8(this reduces the EBADF bad file handle errors that can be logged under heavy
3c50c618 9stress on writes). Modify cifs Kconfig options to expose CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2
3abb9272
SF
10Fix SFU style symlinks and mknod needed for servers which do not support the
11CIFS Unix Extensions. Fix setfacl/getfacl on bigendian. Timeout negative
12dentries so files that the client sees as deleted but that later get created
6473a559 13on the server will be recognized. Add client side permission check on setattr.
83451879
SF
14Timeout stuck requests better (where server has never responded or sent corrupt
15responses)
23e7dd7d 16
190fdeb8
SF
17Version 1.38
18------------
19Fix tcp socket retransmission timeouts (e.g. on ENOSPACE from the socket)
20to be smaller at first (but increasing) so large write performance performance
21over GigE is better. Do not hang thread on illegal byte range lock response
22from Windows (Windows can send an RFC1001 size which does not match smb size) by
23allowing an SMBs TCP length to be up to a few bytes longer than it should be.
24wsize and rsize can now be larger than negotiated buffer size if server
25supports large readx/writex, even when directio mount flag not specified.
26Write size will in many cases now be 16K instead of 4K which greatly helps
4ca9c190 27file copy performance on lightly loaded networks. Fix oops in dnotify
1047abc1 28when experimental config flag enabled. Make cifsFYI more granular.
190fdeb8 29
eafe8701
SF
30Version 1.37
31------------
32Fix readdir caching when unlink removes file in current search buffer,
33and this is followed by a rewind search to just before the deleted entry.
e30dcf3a 34Do not attempt to set ctime unless atime and/or mtime change requested
20962438 35(most servers throw it away anyway). Fix length check of received smbs
70ca734a
SF
36to be more accurate. Fix big endian problem with mapchars mount option,
37and with a field returned by statfs.
eafe8701 38
c46fa8ac
SF
39Version 1.36
40------------
c0c3e8ed 41Add support for mounting to older pre-CIFS servers such as Windows9x and ME.
6b8edfe0 42For these older servers, add option for passing netbios name of server in
16abbecd
SF
43on mount (servernetbiosname). Add suspend support for power management, to
44avoid cifsd thread preventing software suspend from working.
c46fa8ac
SF
45Add mount option for disabling the default behavior of sending byte range lock
46requests to the server (necessary for certain applications which break with
47mandatory lock behavior such as Evolution), and also mount option for
48requesting case insensitive matching for path based requests (requesting
49case sensitive is the default).
50
f4cfd69c
SF
51Version 1.35
52------------
53Add writepage performance improvements. Fix path name conversions
54for long filenames on mounts which were done with "mapchars" mount option
a10faeb2
SF
55specified. Ensure multiplex ids do not collide. Fix case in which
56rmmod can oops if done soon after last unmount. Fix truncated
57search (readdir) output when resume filename was a long filename.
58Fix filename conversion when mapchars mount option was specified and
59filename was a long filename.
f4cfd69c 60
11aa0149
SF
61Version 1.34
62------------
63Fix error mapping of the TOO_MANY_LINKS (hardlinks) case.
31ca3bc3
SF
64Do not oops if root user kills cifs oplock kernel thread or
65kills the cifsd thread (NB: killing the cifs kernel threads is not
66recommended, unmount and rmmod cifs will kill them when they are
68575476 67no longer needed). Fix readdir to ASCII servers (ie older servers
c0c3e8ed 68which do not support Unicode) and also require asterisk.
3079ca62
SF
69Fix out of memory case in which data could be written one page
70off in the page cache.
11aa0149 71
966ca923
SF
72Version 1.33
73------------
74Fix caching problem, in which readdir of directory containing a file
75which was cached could cause the file's time stamp to be updated
76without invalidating the readahead data (so we could get stale
77file data on the client for that file even as the server copy changed).
cd63499c
SF
78Cleanup response processing so cifsd can not loop when abnormally
79terminated.
966ca923
SF
80
81
f654bac2 82Version 1.32
1da177e4
LT
83------------
84Fix oops in ls when Transact2 FindFirst (or FindNext) returns more than one
85transact response for an SMB request and search entry split across two frames.
f654bac2
SF
86Add support for lsattr (getting ext2/ext3/reiserfs attr flags from the server)
87as new protocol extensions. Do not send Get/Set calls for POSIX ACLs
88unless server explicitly claims to support them in CIFS Unix extensions
ad009ac9 89POSIX ACL capability bit. Fix packet signing when multiuser mounting with
cbe0476f 90different users from the same client to the same server. Fix oops in
6a0b4824
SF
91cifs_close. Add mount option for remapping reserved characters in
92filenames (also allow recognizing files with created by SFU which have any
737b758c 93of these seven reserved characters, except backslash, to be recognized).
848f3fce 94Fix invalid transact2 message (we were sometimes trying to interpret
099a58f6
SF
95oplock breaks as SMB responses). Add ioctl for checking that the
96current uid matches the uid of the mounter (needed by umount.cifs).
97Reduce the number of large buffer allocations in cifs response processing
98(significantly reduces memory pressure under heavy stress with multiple
99processes accessing the same server at the same time).
f654bac2
SF
100
101Version 1.31
102------------
1da177e4
LT
103Fix updates of DOS attributes and time fields so that files on NT4 servers
104do not get marked delete on close. Display sizes of cifs buffer pools in
105cifs stats. Fix oops in unmount when cifsd thread being killed by
106shutdown. Add generic readv/writev and aio support. Report inode numbers
107consistently in readdir and lookup (when serverino mount option is
108specified use the inode number that the server reports - for both lookup
109and readdir, otherwise by default the locally generated inode number is used
110for inodes created in either path since servers are not always able to
111provide unique inode numbers when exporting multiple volumes from under one
112sharename).
113
114Version 1.30
115------------
116Allow new nouser_xattr mount parm to disable xattr support for user namespace.
117Do not flag user_xattr mount parm in dmesg. Retry failures setting file time
118(mostly affects NT4 servers) by retry with handle based network operation.
119Add new POSIX Query FS Info for returning statfs info more accurately.
120Handle passwords with multiple commas in them.
121
122Version 1.29
123------------
124Fix default mode in sysfs of cifs module parms. Remove old readdir routine.
125Fix capabilities flags for large readx so as to allow reads larger than 64K.
126
127Version 1.28
128------------
129Add module init parm for large SMB buffer size (to allow it to be changed
130from its default of 16K) which is especially useful for large file copy
131when mounting with the directio mount option. Fix oops after
132returning from mount when experimental ExtendedSecurity enabled and
133SpnegoNegotiated returning invalid error. Fix case to retry better when
134peek returns from 1 to 3 bytes on socket which should have more data.
135Fixed path based calls (such as cifs lookup) to handle path names
136longer than 530 (now can handle PATH_MAX). Fix pass through authentication
137from Samba server to DC (Samba required dummy LM password).
138
139Version 1.27
140------------
141Turn off DNOTIFY (directory change notification support) by default
142(unless built with the experimental flag) to fix hang with KDE
143file browser. Fix DNOTIFY flag mappings. Fix hang (in wait_event
144waiting on an SMB response) in SendReceive when session dies but
145reconnects quickly from another task. Add module init parms for
146minimum number of large and small network buffers in the buffer pools,
147and for the maximum number of simultaneous requests.
148
149Version 1.26
150------------
151Add setfacl support to allow setting of ACLs remotely to Samba 3.10 and later
152and other POSIX CIFS compliant servers. Fix error mapping for getfacl
153to EOPNOTSUPP when server does not support posix acls on the wire. Fix
154improperly zeroed buffer in CIFS Unix extensions set times call.
155
156Version 1.25
157------------
c0c3e8ed 158Fix internationalization problem in cifs readdir with filenames that map to
1da177e4
LT
159longer UTF8 strings than the string on the wire was in Unicode. Add workaround
160for readdir to netapp servers. Fix search rewind (seek into readdir to return
161non-consecutive entries). Do not do readdir when server negotiates
162buffer size to small to fit filename. Add support for reading POSIX ACLs from
163the server (add also acl and noacl mount options).
164
165Version 1.24
166------------
167Optionally allow using server side inode numbers, rather than client generated
168ones by specifying mount option "serverino" - this is required for some apps
169to work which double check hardlinked files and have persistent inode numbers.
170
171Version 1.23
172------------
173Multiple bigendian fixes. On little endian systems (for reconnect after
174network failure) fix tcp session reconnect code so we do not try first
175to reconnect on reverse of port 445. Treat reparse points (NTFS junctions)
176as directories rather than symlinks because we can do follow link on them.
177
178Version 1.22
179------------
180Add config option to enable XATTR (extended attribute) support, mapping
181xattr names in the "user." namespace space to SMB/CIFS EAs. Lots of
182minor fixes pointed out by the Stanford SWAT checker (mostly missing
183or out of order NULL pointer checks in little used error paths).
184
185Version 1.21
186------------
187Add new mount parm to control whether mode check (generic_permission) is done
188on the client. If Unix extensions are enabled and the uids on the client
189and server do not match, client permission checks are meaningless on
190server uids that do not exist on the client (this does not affect the
191normal ACL check which occurs on the server). Fix default uid
192on mknod to match create and mkdir. Add optional mount parm to allow
193override of the default uid behavior (in which the server sets the uid
194and gid of newly created files). Normally for network filesystem mounts
195user want the server to set the uid/gid on newly created files (rather than
196using uid of the client processes you would in a local filesystem).
197
198Version 1.20
199------------
200Make transaction counts more consistent. Merge /proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps
201info into /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData. Fix oops in rare oops in readdir
202(in build_wildcard_path_from_dentry). Fix mknod to pass type field
203(block/char/fifo) properly. Remove spurious mount warning log entry when
204credentials passed as mount argument. Set major/minor device number in
205inode for block and char devices when unix extensions enabled.
206
207Version 1.19
208------------
209Fix /proc/fs/cifs/Stats and DebugData display to handle larger
210amounts of return data. Properly limit requests to MAX_REQ (50
211is the usual maximum active multiplex SMB/CIFS requests per server).
212Do not kill cifsd (and thus hurt the other SMB session) when more than one
213session to the same server (but with different userids) exists and one
214of the two user's smb sessions is being removed while leaving the other.
215Do not loop reconnecting in cifsd demultiplex thread when admin
216kills the thread without going through unmount.
217
218Version 1.18
219------------
220Do not rename hardlinked files (since that should be a noop). Flush
221cached write behind data when reopening a file after session abend,
222except when already in write. Grab per socket sem during reconnect
223to avoid oops in sendmsg if overlapping with reconnect. Do not
224reset cached inode file size on readdir for files open for write on
225client.
226
227
228Version 1.17
229------------
230Update number of blocks in file so du command is happier (in Linux a fake
231blocksize of 512 is required for calculating number of blocks in inode).
232Fix prepare write of partial pages to read in data from server if possible.
233Fix race on tcpStatus field between unmount and reconnection code, causing
234cifsd process sometimes to hang around forever. Improve out of memory
235checks in cifs_filldir
236
237Version 1.16
238------------
239Fix incorrect file size in file handle based setattr on big endian hardware.
240Fix oops in build_path_from_dentry when out of memory. Add checks for invalid
241and closing file structs in writepage/partialpagewrite. Add statistics
242for each mounted share (new menuconfig option). Fix endianness problem in
243volume information displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData (only affects
244affects big endian architectures). Prevent renames while constructing
245path names for open, mkdir and rmdir.
246
247Version 1.15
248------------
249Change to mempools for alloc smb request buffers and multiplex structs
250to better handle low memory problems (and potential deadlocks).
251
252Version 1.14
253------------
254Fix incomplete listings of large directories on Samba servers when Unix
255extensions enabled. Fix oops when smb_buffer can not be allocated. Fix
256rename deadlock when writing out dirty pages at same time.
257
258Version 1.13
259------------
260Fix open of files in which O_CREATE can cause the mode to change in
261some cases. Fix case in which retry of write overlaps file close.
262Fix PPC64 build error. Reduce excessive stack usage in smb password
263hashing. Fix overwrite of Linux user's view of file mode to Windows servers.
264
265Version 1.12
266------------
267Fixes for large file copy, signal handling, socket retry, buffer
268allocation and low memory situations.
269
270Version 1.11
271------------
272Better port 139 support to Windows servers (RFC1001/RFC1002 Session_Initialize)
273also now allowing support for specifying client netbiosname. NT4 support added.
274
275Version 1.10
276------------
277Fix reconnection (and certain failed mounts) to properly wake up the
278blocked users thread so it does not seem hung (in some cases was blocked
279until the cifs receive timeout expired). Fix spurious error logging
280to kernel log when application with open network files killed.
281
282Version 1.09
283------------
284Fix /proc/fs module unload warning message (that could be logged
285to the kernel log). Fix intermittent failure in connectathon
286test7 (hardlink count not immediately refreshed in case in which
287inode metadata can be incorrectly kept cached when time near zero)
288
289Version 1.08
290------------
291Allow file_mode and dir_mode (specified at mount time) to be enforced
292locally (the server already enforced its own ACLs too) for servers
293that do not report the correct mode (do not support the
294CIFS Unix Extensions).
295
296Version 1.07
297------------
298Fix some small memory leaks in some unmount error paths. Fix major leak
299of cache pages in readpages causing multiple read oriented stress
300testcases (including fsx, and even large file copy) to fail over time.
301
302Version 1.06
303------------
304Send NTCreateX with ATTR_POSIX if Linux/Unix extensions negotiated with server.
305This allows files that differ only in case and improves performance of file
306creation and file open to such servers. Fix semaphore conflict which causes
307slow delete of open file to Samba (which unfortunately can cause an oplock
308break to self while vfs_unlink held i_sem) which can hang for 20 seconds.
309
310Version 1.05
311------------
312fixes to cifs_readpages for fsx test case
313
314Version 1.04
315------------
316Fix caching data integrity bug when extending file size especially when no
317oplock on file. Fix spurious logging of valid already parsed mount options
318that are parsed outside of the cifs vfs such as nosuid.
319
320
321Version 1.03
322------------
323Connect to server when port number override not specified, and tcp port
324unitialized. Reset search to restart at correct file when kernel routine
325filldir returns error during large directory searches (readdir).
326
327Version 1.02
328------------
329Fix caching problem when files opened by multiple clients in which
330page cache could contain stale data, and write through did
331not occur often enough while file was still open when read ahead
332(read oplock) not allowed. Treat "sep=" when first mount option
c0c3e8ed 333as an override of comma as the default separator between mount
1da177e4
LT
334options.
335
336Version 1.01
337------------
338Allow passwords longer than 16 bytes. Allow null password string.
339
340Version 1.00
341------------
342Gracefully clean up failed mounts when attempting to mount to servers such as
c0c3e8ed 343Windows 98 that terminate tcp sessions during protocol negotiation. Handle
1da177e4
LT
344embedded commas in mount parsing of passwords.
345
346Version 0.99
347------------
348Invalidate local inode cached pages on oplock break and when last file
349instance is closed so that the client does not continue using stale local
350copy rather than later modified server copy of file. Do not reconnect
351when server drops the tcp session prematurely before negotiate
c0c3e8ed 352protocol response. Fix oops in reopen_file when dentry freed. Allow
1da177e4
LT
353the support for CIFS Unix Extensions to be disabled via proc interface.
354
355Version 0.98
356------------
357Fix hang in commit_write during reconnection of open files under heavy load.
358Fix unload_nls oops in a mount failure path. Serialize writes to same socket
359which also fixes any possible races when cifs signatures are enabled in SMBs
360being sent out of signature sequence number order.
361
362Version 0.97
363------------
364Fix byte range locking bug (endian problem) causing bad offset and
365length.
366
367Version 0.96
368------------
369Fix oops (in send_sig) caused by CIFS unmount code trying to
370wake up the demultiplex thread after it had exited. Do not log
371error on harmless oplock release of closed handle.
372
373Version 0.95
374------------
375Fix unsafe global variable usage and password hash failure on gcc 3.3.1
376Fix problem reconnecting secondary mounts to same server after session
377failure. Fix invalid dentry - race in mkdir when directory gets created
378by another client between the lookup and mkdir.
379
380Version 0.94
381------------
382Fix to list processing in reopen_files. Fix reconnection when server hung
383but tcpip session still alive. Set proper timeout on socket read.
384
385Version 0.93
386------------
387Add missing mount options including iocharset. SMP fixes in write and open.
388Fix errors in reconnecting after TCP session failure. Fix module unloading
389of default nls codepage
390
391Version 0.92
392------------
393Active smb transactions should never go negative (fix double FreeXid). Fix
394list processing in file routines. Check return code on kmalloc in open.
395Fix spinlock usage for SMP.
396
397Version 0.91
398------------
399Fix oops in reopen_files when invalid dentry. drop dentry on server rename
400and on revalidate errors. Fix cases where pid is now tgid. Fix return code
401on create hard link when server does not support them.
402
403Version 0.90
404------------
405Fix scheduling while atomic error in getting inode info on newly created file.
406Fix truncate of existing files opened with O_CREAT but not O_TRUNC set.
407
408Version 0.89
409------------
410Fix oops on write to dead tcp session. Remove error log write for case when file open
411O_CREAT but not O_EXCL
412
413Version 0.88
414------------
415Fix non-POSIX behavior on rename of open file and delete of open file by taking
416advantage of trans2 SetFileInfo rename facility if available on target server.
417Retry on ENOSPC and EAGAIN socket errors.
418
419Version 0.87
420------------
421Fix oops on big endian readdir. Set blksize to be even power of two (2**blkbits) to fix
422allocation size miscalculation. After oplock token lost do not read through
423cache.
424
425Version 0.86

430------------
431Fix oops in mkdir when server fails to return inode info. Fix oops in reopen_files
432during auto reconnection to server after server recovered from failure.
433
434Version 0.84
435------------
436Finish support for Linux 2.5 open/create changes, which removes the
437redundant NTCreate/QPathInfo/close that was sent during file create.
438Enable oplock by default. Enable packet signing by default (needed to
439access many recent Windows servers)
440
441Version 0.83
442------------
443Fix oops when mounting to long server names caused by inverted parms to kmalloc.
444Fix MultiuserMount (/proc/fs/cifs configuration setting) so that when enabled
445we will choose a cifs user session (smb uid) that better matches the local
446uid if a) the mount uid does not match the current uid and b) we have another
447session to the same server (ip address) for a different mount which
448matches the current local uid.
449
450Version 0.82
451------------
452Add support for mknod of block or character devices. Fix oplock
453code (distributed caching) to properly send response to oplock
454break from server.
455
456Version 0.81
457------------
458Finish up CIFS packet digital signing for the default
459NTLM security case. This should help Windows 2003
460network interoperability since it is common for
461packet signing to be required now. Fix statfs (stat -f)
462which recently started returning errors due to
463invalid value (-1 instead of 0) being set in the
464struct kstatfs f_ffiles field.
465
466Version 0.80
467-----------
468Fix oops on stopping oplock thread when removing cifs when
469built as module.
470
471Version 0.79
472------------
473Fix mount options for ro (readonly), uid, gid and file and directory mode.
474
475Version 0.78

477Fix errors displayed on failed mounts to be more understandable.
478Fixed various incorrect or misleading smb to posix error code mappings.
479
480Version 0.77
481------------
482Fix display of NTFS DFS junctions to display as symlinks.
483They are the network equivalent. Fix oops in
484cifs_partialpagewrite caused by missing spinlock protection
485of openfile linked list. Allow writebehind caching errors to
486be returned to the application at file close.
487
488Version 0.76
489------------
490Clean up options displayed in /proc/mounts by show_options to
491be more consistent with other filesystems.
492
493Version 0.75
494------------
495Fix delete of readonly file to Windows servers. Reflect
496presence or absence of read only dos attribute in mode
497bits for servers that do not support CIFS Unix extensions.
498Fix shortened results on readdir of large directories to
499servers supporting CIFS Unix extensions (caused by
500incorrect resume key).
501
502Version 0.74
503------------
504Fix truncate bug (set file size) that could cause hangs e.g. running fsx
505
506Version 0.73
507------------
508unload nls if mount fails.
509
510Version 0.72
511------------
512Add resume key support to search (readdir) code to workaround
513Windows bug. Add /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnable which
514allows disabling caching of attribute information for
515lookups.
516
517Version 0.71
518------------
519Add more oplock handling (distributed caching code). Remove
520dead code. Remove excessive stack space utilization from
521symlink routines.
522
523Version 0.70
524------------
525Fix oops in get dfs referral (triggered when null path sent in to
526mount). Add support for overriding rsize at mount time.
527
528Version 0.69
529------------
530Fix buffer overrun in readdir which caused intermittent kernel oopses.
531Fix writepage code to release kmap on write data. Allow "-ip=" new
532mount option to be passed in on parameter distinct from the first part
533(server name portion of) the UNC name. Allow override of the
534tcp port of the target server via new mount option "-port="
535
536Version 0.68
537------------
538Fix search handle leak on rewind. Fix setuid and gid so that they are
539reflected in the local inode immediately. Cleanup of whitespace
540to make 2.4 and 2.5 versions more consistent.
541
542
543Version 0.67
544------------
545Fix signal sending so that captive thread (cifsd) exits on umount
546(which was causing the warning in kmem_cache_free of the request buffers
547at rmmod time). This had broken as a sideeffect of the recent global
548kernel change to daemonize. Fix memory leak in readdir code which
549showed up in "ls -R" (and applications that did search rewinding).
550
551Version 0.66
552------------
553Reconnect tids and fids after session reconnection (still do not
554reconnect byte range locks though). Fix problem caching
555lookup information for directory inodes, improving performance,
556especially in deep directory trees. Fix various build warnings.
557
558Version 0.65
559------------
560Finish fixes to commit write for caching/readahead consistency. fsx
561now works to Samba servers. Fix oops caused when readahead
562was interrupted by a signal.
563
564Version 0.64
565------------
566Fix data corruption (in partial page after truncate) that caused fsx to
567fail to Windows servers. Cleaned up some extraneous error logging in
568common error paths. Add generic sendfile support.
569
570Version 0.63
571------------
572Fix memory leak in AllocMidQEntry.
573Finish reconnection logic, so connection with server can be dropped
574(or server rebooted) and the cifs client will reconnect.
575
576Version 0.62
577------------
578Fix temporary socket leak when bad userid or password specified
579(or other SMBSessSetup failure). Increase maximum buffer size to slightly
580over 16K to allow negotiation of up to Samba and Windows server default read
581sizes. Add support for readpages
582
583Version 0.61
584------------
585Fix oops when username not passed in on mount. Extensive fixes and improvements
586to error logging (strip redundant newlines, change debug macros to ensure newline
587passed in and to be more consistent). Fix writepage wrong file handle problem,
588a readonly file handle could be incorrectly used to attempt to write out
589file updates through the page cache to multiply open files. This could cause
590the iozone benchmark to fail on the fwrite test. Fix bug mounting two different
591shares to the same Windows server when using different usernames
592(doing this to Samba servers worked but Windows was rejecting it) - now it is
593possible to use different userids when connecting to the same server from a
594Linux client. Fix oops when treeDisconnect called during unmount on
595previously freed socket.
596
597Version 0.60
598------------
599Fix oops in readpages caused by not setting address space operations in inode in
600rare code path.

605requirement). Add readlink support for Windows junction points (directory symlinks).
606
607Version 0.58
608------------
609Changed read and write to go through pagecache. Added additional address space operations.
610Memory mapped operations now working.
611
612Version 0.57
613------------
614Added writepage code for additional memory mapping support. Fixed leak in xids causing
615the simultaneous operations counter (/proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps) to increase on
616every stat call. Additional formatting cleanup.
617
618Version 0.56
619------------
620Fix bigendian bug in order of time conversion. Merge 2.5 to 2.4 version. Formatting cleanup.

629------------
630Fix problem with captive thread hanging around at unmount time. Adjust to 2.5.42-pre
631changes to superblock layout. Remove wasteful allocation of smb buffers (now the send
632buffer is reused for responses). Add more oplock handling. Additional minor cleanup.
633
634Version 0.53
635------------

690
691Version 0.41
692------------
693Various minor fixes for Connectathon Posix "basic" file i/o test suite. Directory caching fixed so hardlinked

722
723Version 0.34
724------------
725Fixed dentry caching bug, misc. cleanup
726
727Version 0.33
728------------
729Fixed 2.5 support to handle build and configure changes as well as misc. 2.5 changes. Now can build
730on current 2.5 beta version (2.5.24) of the Linux kernel as well as on 2.4 Linux kernels.
731Support for STATUS codes (newer 32 bit NT error codes) added. DFS support begun to be added.
732
733Version 0.32
734------------
735Unix extensions (symlink, readlink, hardlink, chmod and some chgrp and chown) implemented

740------------
7411) Fixed lockrange to be correct (it was one byte too short)
742
7432) Fixed GETLK (i.e. the fcntl call to test a range of bytes in a file to see if locked) to correctly
744show range as locked when there is a conflict with an existing lock.
745
7463) default file perms are now 2767 (indicating support for mandatory locks) instead of 777 for directories
747in most cases. Eventually will offer optional ability to query server for the correct perms.

750but the second one was invalid and failed (the second one was incorrectly disconnecting the tcp and smb
751session)
752
7534) Fixed error logging of valid mount options
754
7555) Removed logging of password field.
756
7576) Moved negotiate, treeDisconnect and uloggoffX (only tConx and SessSetup remain in connect.c) to cifssmb.c
758and cleaned them up and made them more consistent with other cifs functions.
