Jeff Layton df2cf170c8 cifs: overhaul cifs_revalidate and rename to cifs_revalidate_dentry
cifs_revalidate is renamed to cifs_revalidate_dentry as a later patch
will add a by-filehandle variant.

Add a new "invalid_mapping" flag to the cifsInodeInfo that indicates
that the pagecache is considered invalid. Add a new routine to check
inode attributes whenever they're updated and set that flag if the inode
has changed on the server.

cifs_revalidate_dentry is then changed to just update the attrcache if
needed and then to zap the pagecache if it's not valid.

There are some other behavior changes in here as well. Open files are
now allowed to have their caches invalidated. I see no reason why we'd
want to keep stale data around just because a file is open. Also,
cifs_revalidate_cache uses the server_eof for revalidating the file
size since that should more closely match the size of the file on the
server.

Jeff Layton cc0bad7552 cifs: add new cifs_iget function and convert unix codepath to use it
cifs: add new cifs_iget function and convert unix codepath to use it

In order to unify some codepaths, introduce a common cifs_fattr struct
for storing inode attributes. The different codepaths (unix, legacy,
normal, etc...) can fill out this struct with inode info. It can then be
passed as an arg to a common set of routines to get and update inodes.

Add a new cifs_iget function that uses iget5_locked to identify inodes.
This will compare inodes based on the uniqueid value in a cifs_fattr
struct.

Rather than filling out an already-created inode, have
cifs_get_inode_info_unix instead fill out cifs_fattr and hand that off
to cifs_iget. cifs_iget can then properly look for hardlinked inodes.

On the readdir side, add a new cifs_readdir_lookup function that spawns
populated dentries. Redefine FILE_UNIX_INFO so that it's basically a
FILE_UNIX_BASIC_INFO that has a few fields wrapped around it. This
allows us to more easily use the same function for filling out the fattr
as the non-readdir codepath.

With this, we should then have proper hardlink detection and can
eventually get rid of some nasty CIFS-specific hacks for handing them.

Steve French eca6acf915 [CIFS] Fix multiuser mounts so server does not invalidate earlier security contexts
When two different users mount the same Windows 2003 Server share using CIFS,
the first session mounted can be invalidated.  Some servers invalidate the first
smb session when a second similar user (e.g. two users who get mapped by server to "guest")
authenticates an smb session from the same client.

By making sure that we set the 2nd and subsequent vc numbers to nonzero values,
this ensures that we will not have this problem.

Fixes Samba bug 6004, problem description follows:
How to reproduce:

- configure an "open share" (full permissions to Guest user) on Windows 2003
Server (I couldn't reproduce the problem with Samba server or Windows older
than 2003)
- mount the share twice with different users who will be authenticated as guest.

 noacl,noperm,user=john,dir_mode=0700,domain=DOMAIN,rw
 noacl,noperm,user=jeff,dir_mode=0700,domain=DOMAIN,rw

Result:

- just the mount point mounted last is accessible:

Remove the hopelessly misguided ->dir_notify().  The only instance (cifs)
has been broken by design from the very beginning; the objects it creates
are never destroyed, keep references to struct file they can outlive, nothing
that could possibly evict them exists on close(2) path *and* no locking
whatsoever is done to prevent races with close(), should the previous, er,
deficiencies someday be dealt with.

Steve French 13a6e42af8 [CIFS] add mount option to send mandatory rather than advisory locks
Some applications/subsystems require mandatory byte range locks
(as is used for Windows/DOS/OS2 etc). Sending advisory (posix style)
byte range lock requests (instead of mandatory byte range locks) can
lead to problems for these applications (which expect that other
clients be prevented from writing to portions of the file which
they have locked and are updating).  This mount option allows
mounting cifs with the new mount option "forcemand" (or
"forcemandatorylock") in order to have the cifs client use mandatory
byte range locks (ie SMB/CIFS/Windows/NTFS style locks) rather than
posix byte range lock requests, even if the server would support
posix byte range lock requests.  This has no effect if the server
does not support the CIFS Unix Extensions (since posix style locks
require support for the CIFS Unix Extensions), but for mounts
to Samba servers this can be helpful for Wine and applications
that require mandatory byte range locks.

David Howells ce634ab28e iget: stop CIFS from using iget() and read_inode()
Stop the CIFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
cifs_read_inode() with cifs_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
cifs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.

cifs_read_super() now returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of ENOMEM.

cifs_iget() needs examining.  The comment "can not call macro FreeXid here
since in a void func" is no longer true.

Miklos Szeredi 75e1fcc0b1 [PATCH] vfs: add lock owner argument to flush operation
Pass the POSIX lock owner ID to the flush operation.

This is useful for filesystems which don't want to store any locking state
in inode->i_flock but want to handle locking/unlocking POSIX locks
internally.  FUSE is one such filesystem but I think it possible that some
network filesystems would need this also.

Also add a flag to indicate that a POSIX locking request was generated by
close(), so filesystems using the above feature won't send an extra locking
request in this case.

Steve French b92327fe6b [CIFS] Finish up of case-insensitive dentry handling for cifs. This
will eventually (or should eventually) be common code for jfs, smbfs,
etc. but in the meantime is small enough and necessary when mounting
case insensitive to Windows (nocase).

Linus Torvalds cc314eef01 Fix nasty ncpfs symlink handling bug.
This bug could cause oopses and page state corruption, because ncpfs
used the generic page-cache symlink handlign functions.  But those
functions only work if the page cache is guaranteed to be "stable", ie a
page that was installed when the symlink walk was started has to still
be installed in the page cache at the end of the walk.

We could have fixed ncpfs to not use the generic helper routines, but it
is in many ways much cleaner to instead improve on the symlink walking
helper routines so that they don't require that absolute stability.

We do this by allowing "follow_link()" to return a error-pointer as a
cookie, which is fed back to the cleanup "put_link()" routine.  This
also simplifies NFS symlink handling.

pointed out by Dave Stahl and Vince Negri in which cifs can update the
last modify time on a server modified file without invalidating the
local cached data due to an intervening readdir.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
