Ho ho ho - Linux v2.6.10
From: Linus Torvalds
Date: Fri Dec 24 2004 - 17:41:41 EST
Ok, with a lot of people taking an xmas break, here's something to play
with over the holidays (not to mention an excuse for me to get into the
Glögg for real ;)
Mostly a lot of small fixes since 2.6.10-rc3, with the biggest thing being
probably the CIFS update and the switch-over to the new DVB frontend
driver world order. Some MMC and USB work too, and ARM updates as usual.
Shortlog from 2.6.10-rc3 appended, with the full log from 2.6.9 on the
normal distribution sites.

than symlinks since we can not follow them
o [CIFS] Add cifs serverino mount parm to allow use of inode numbers
reported from the server (rather than generated by the client).
Some apps require inode numbers to persist or inode numbers of
hardlinked files to match and this requires trusting the servers
inode number.

stable server inode numbers from Windows servers)
o [CIFS] level 261 findfirst part 2

message

readable following Shaggy's suggestion

o [CIFS] POSIX ACL support part 3
o [CIFS] cifs readdir changes part 10 remove unneeded debug function
o [CIFS] fix ls -l warning on dirs when POSIX ACLs enabled

/proc/fs/cifs/QuotaEnabled config switch to NewReaddirEnabled for
turning on testing of new readdir code
o [CIFS] Add setfacl support to cifs
o [CIFS] cifs readdir rewrite fix resume key handling
o [CIFS] CIFS buffer management improvements part 1
o [CIFS] minor cleanup to cifs buffer allocation code
o [CIFS] fix size of cifs small buffers to just barely fit within
slab limit (which appears to be 116 bytes), otherwise they take 1
page each.
o [CIFS] Set inode number properly on new cifs_readdir code to
Windows servers
o [CIFS] fix error mapping on getfacl to windows and old samba
servers to map to EOPNOTSUPP so the kernel's fall back mechanism
works
o [CIFS] Update Kconfig to make CIFS POSIX ACLs dependent on xattrs
and fix related ifdef in fs/cifs/xattr.c
o [CIFS] Add missing quote to cifs kconfig item
o [CIFS] Make new cifs readdir code the default and rename the proc
entry to /proc/fs/cifs/ReenableOldCifsReaddirCode (which is off by
default, causing the new cifs_readdir2 code to be executed by
default)
o [CIFS] Fix endianness bug in new cifs_readdir2 in calculating dir
entry name length. Fix "badness in" message on rmmod cifs caused by
rename of /proc/fs/cifs/NewReaddirEnabled config switch (pointed
out by Shaggy).
o add direct mount options to optionally bypass the page cache on
reads and writes
o [CIFS] zero more of SMB param area on SMB allocation
o [CIFS] fix spelling of CONFIG_CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL ifdef in direct i/o
write
o [CIFS] cleanup various warning/debug messages
o [CIFS] add debug message for trusted and security xattrs
o [CIFS] Increase size of small SMB pool (and decrease number) and do
not zero the beginning of the header twice.
o [CIFS] parse ipv6 addresses on mount (ipv6 support for cifs part 2)
o [CIFS] Check right mid state on hung network responses. Fix remote
dnotify to be disabled by default. Fix dnotify endianness.
o [CIFS] Do not block on FindNotify response
o [CIFS] Allow peek to return less than smb header so we do not
prematurely kill session to server when socket stack is busy.
o Add support for module init parms for number of small and large
cifs network buffers and for maximum number of simultaneous
requests. Fix directio of userbuffers to use copy_to_user.
o [CIFS] remove sparse warning
o [CIFS] Remove sparse warning in use of cifs_write function
o [CIFS] Fix CIFS_MAX_MSGSIZE so it can be configured at
module_install time, allowing buffer size to be changed
o return the right return code on failed ExtendedSecurity mount to
SPNEGO enabled servers to avoid mount oops. Fix case in which tcp
stack only returns 3 bytes
o [CIFS] Fix path based calls to consistently allow up to PATH_MAX
(some were incorrectly limited to just over 512)
o Error mapping workaround for NT4 bug of reporting oldstyle DOS
error for ERR invalid level (shows up on attempts to do SetPathInfo
to NT4)
