Re: [PATCH v5 06/14] smb/server: remove create_durable_reconn_req

Hi Namjae,

Please do not apply patch 0007 yet.

The struct smb_hdr seems to be used only by SMB1, while SMB2 and SMB3 use smb2_hdr.

Should we move smb_hdr to a new common/smb1pdu.h?

Thanks,
ChenXiaoSong.

Okay, I'll make the changes.

Once you've applied some of the patches from this version, I'll
immediately send the next version.
I have applied all patches except 0006, 0012 patches to #ksmbd-for-next-next.
Thanks!

Thanks,

The fields in struct create_durable_reconn_req and struct create_durable
are exactly the same.

The documentation references are:

- SMB2_CREATE_DURABLE_HANDLE_REQUEST in MS-SMB2 2.2.13.2.3
- SMB2_CREATE_DURABLE_HANDLE_RECONNECT in MS-SMB2 2.2.13.2.4
- SMB2_FILEID in MS-SMB2 2.2.14.1

We can give these two structs a uniform name: create_durable.
Please use typedef to define multiple aliases for a single struct.
typedef struct {
...
} create_durable, create_durable_reconn_req;

Thanks.
