2012-03-06cifs: possible memory leak in xattr.Santosh Nayak
Memory is allocated irrespective of whether CIFS_ACL is configured or not. But free is happenning only if CIFS_ACL is set. This is a possible memory leak scenario. Fix is: Allocate and free memory only if CIFS_ACL is configured.

2012-02-26cifs: fix dentry refcount leak when opening a FIFO on lookupJeff Layton
The cifs code will attempt to open files on lookup under certain circumstances. What happens though if we find that the file we opened was actually a FIFO or other special file? Currently, the open filehandle just ends up being leaked leading to a dentry refcount mismatch and oops on umount. Fix this by having the code close the filehandle on the server if it turns out not to be a regular file. While we're at it, change this spaghetti if statement into a switch too.

2012-02-26CIFS: Fix mkdir/rmdir bug for the non-POSIX casePavel Shilovsky
Currently we do inc/drop_nlink for a parent directory for every mkdir/rmdir calls. That's wrong when Unix extensions are disabled because in this case a server doesn't follow the same semantic and returns the old value on the next QueryInfo request. As the result, we update our value with the server one and then decrement it on every rmdir call - go to negative nlink values. Fix this by removing inc/drop_nlink for the parent directory from mkdir/rmdir, setting it for a revalidation and ignoring NumberOfLinks for directories when Unix extensions are disabled.

2012-02-07cifs: don't return error from standard_receive3 after marking response malformedJeff Layton
standard_receive3 will check the validity of the response from the server (via checkSMB). It'll pass the result of that check to handle_mid which will dequeue it and mark it with a status of MID_RESPONSE_MALFORMED if checkSMB returned an error. At that point, standard_receive3 will also return an error, which will make the demultiplex thread skip doing the callback for the mid. This is wrong -- if we were able to identify the request and the response is marked malformed, then we want the demultiplex thread to do the callback. Fix this by making standard_receive3 return 0 in this situation.

2011-12-08cifs: check for NULL last_entry before calling cifs_save_resume_keyJeff Layton
Prior to commit eaf35b1, cifs_save_resume_key had some NULL pointer checks at the top. It turns out that at least one of those NULL pointer checks is needed after all. When the LastNameOffset in a FIND reply appears to be beyond the end of the buffer, CIFSFindFirst and CIFSFindNext will set srch_inf.last_entry to NULL. Since eaf35b1, the code will now oops in this situation. Fix this by having the callers check for a NULL last entry pointer before calling cifs_save_resume_key. No change is needed for the call site in cifs_readdir as it's not reachable with a NULL current_entry pointer.

Re-posting a patch originally posted by Oskar Liljeblad after rebasing on 3.2. Modify cifs to assume that the supplied password is encoded according to iocharset. Before this patch passwords would be treated as raw 8-bit data, which made authentication with Unicode passwords impossible (at least passwords with characters > 0xFF). The previous code would as a side effect accept passwords encoded with ISO 8859-1, since Unicode < 0x100 basically is ISO 8859-1. Software which relies on that will no longer support password chars > 0x7F unless it also uses iocharset=iso8859-1. (mount.cifs does not care about the encoding so it will work as expected.)

2011-10-28vfs: do (nearly) lockless generic_file_llseekAndi Kleen
The i_mutex lock use of generic _file_llseek hurts. Independent processes accessing the same file synchronize over a single lock, even though they have no need for synchronization at all. Under high utilization this can cause llseek to scale very poorly on larger systems. This patch does some rethinking of the llseek locking model: First the 64bit f_pos is not necessarily atomic without locks on 32bit systems. This can already cause races with read() today. This was discussed on linux-kernel in the past and deemed acceptable. The patch does not change that. Let's look at the different seek variants: SEEK_SET: Doesn't really need any locking. If there's a race one writer wins, the other loses. For 32bit the non atomic update races against read() stay the same. Without a lock they can also happen against write() now. The read() race was deemed acceptable in past discussions, and I think if it's ok for read it's ok for write too. => Don't need a lock. SEEK_END: This behaves like SEEK_SET plus it reads the maximum size too. Reading the maximum size would have the 32bit atomic problem. But luckily we already have a way to read the maximum size without locking (i_size_read), so we can just use that instead. Without i_mutex there is no synchronization with write() anymore, however since the write() update is atomic on 64bit it just behaves like another racy SEEK_SET. On non atomic 32bit it's the same as SEEK_SET. => Don't need a lock, but need to use i_size_read() SEEK_CUR: This has a read-modify-write race window on the same file. One could argue that any application doing unsynchronized seeks on the same file is already broken. But for the sake of not adding a regression here I'm using the file->f_lock to synchronize this. Using this lock is much better than the inode mutex because it doesn't synchronize between processes. => So still need a lock, but can use a f_lock. This patch implements this new scheme in generic_file_llseek. I dropped generic_file_llseek_unlocked and changed all callers.
