SF
1Version 1.51
2------------
3Fix memory leak in statfs when mounted to very old servers (e.g.
92ad9b93
SF
4Windows 9x). Add new feature "POSIX open" which allows servers
5which support the current POSIX Extensions to provide better semantics
6(e.g. delete for open files opened with posix open). Take into
7account umask on posix mkdir not just older style mkdir. Add
8ability to mount to IPC$ share (which allows CIFS named pipes to be
297647c2
SF
9opened, read and written as if they were files). When 1st tree
10connect fails (e.g. due to signing negotiation failure) fix
11leak that causes cifsd not to stop and rmmod to fail to cleanup
8f2376ad 12cifs_request_buffers pool. Fix problem with POSIX Open/Mkdir on
c18c732e 13bigendian architectures. Fix possible memory corruption when
abb63d6c 14EAGAIN returned on kern_recvmsg. Return better error if server
e01b6400
SP
15requires packet signing but client has disabled it. When mounted
16with cifsacl mount option - mode bits are approximated based
1fb64bfc
SF
17on the contents of the ACL of the file or directory. When cifs
18mount helper is missing convert make sure that UNC name
19has backslash (not forward slash) between ip address of server
20and the share name.

b609f06a
SF
22Version 1.50
23------------
7521a3c5 24Fix NTLMv2 signing. NFS server mounted over cifs works (if cifs mount is
2d785a50
SF
25done with "serverino" mount option). Add support for POSIX Unlink
26(helps with certain sharing violation cases when server such as
a403a0a3
SF
27Samba supports newer POSIX CIFS Protocol Extensions). Add "nounix"
28mount option to allow disabling the CIFS Unix Extensions for just
29that mount. Fix hang on spinlock in find_writable_file (race when
39db810c
JL
30reopening file after session crash). Byte range unlock request to
31windows server could unlock more bytes (on server copy of file)
32than intended if start of unlock request is well before start of
33a previous byte range lock that we issued.
b609f06a 34
5858ae44
SF
35Version 1.49
36------------
37IPv6 support. Enable ipv6 addresses to be passed on mount (put the ipv6
38address after the "ip=" mount option, at least until mount.cifs is fixed to
4523cc30
SF
39handle DNS host to ipv6 name translation). Accept override of uid or gid
40on mount even when Unix Extensions are negotiated (it used to be ignored
41when Unix Extensions were ignored). This allows users to override the
42default uid and gid for files when they are certain that the uids or
8426c39c
JL
43gids on the server do not match those of the client. Make "sec=none"
44mount override username (so that null user connection is attempted)
75865f8c
SF
45to match what documentation said. Support for very large reads, over 127K,
46available to some newer servers (such as Samba 3.0.26 and later but
47note that it also requires setting CIFSMaxBufSize at module install
48time to a larger value which may hurt performance in some cases).
38c10a1d 49Make sign option force signing (or fail if server does not support it).

51Version 1.48
3677db10
SF
52------------
53Fix mtime bouncing around from local idea of last write times to remote time.
54Fix hang (in i_size_read) when simultaneous size update of same remote file
8a236264
SF
55on smp system corrupts sequence number. Do not reread unnecessarily partial page
56(which we are about to overwrite anyway) when writing out file opened rw.
f5c1e2ea
AT
57When DOS attribute of file on non-Unix server's file changes on the server side
58from read-only back to read-write, reflect this change in default file mode
066fcb06
SF
59(we had been leaving a file's mode read-only until the inode were reloaded).
60Allow setting of attribute back to ATTR_NORMAL (removing readonly dos attribute
61when archive dos attribute not set and we are changing mode back to writeable
5268df2e
SF
62on server which does not support the Unix Extensions). Remove read only dos
63attribute on chmod when adding any write permission (ie on any of
64user/group/other (not all of user/group/other ie 0222) when
2dd29d31
SF
65mounted to windows. Add support for POSIX MkDir (slight performance
66enhancement and eliminates the network race between the mkdir and set
67path info of the mode).
68
8a236264 69
405c514f
SF
70Version 1.47
71------------
72Fix oops in list_del during mount caused by unaligned string.
595dcfec
SF
73Fix file corruption which could occur on some large file
74copies caused by writepages page i/o completion bug.
a850790f 75Seek to SEEK_END forces check for update of file size for non-cached
8af18971
SF
76files. Allow file size to be updated on remote extend of locally open,
77non-cached file. Fix reconnect to newer Samba servers (or other servers
78which support the CIFS Unix/POSIX extensions) so that we again tell the
79server the Unix/POSIX cifs capabilities which we support (SetFSInfo).
80Add experimental support for new POSIX Open/Mkdir (which returns
81stat information on the open, and allows setting the mode).
405c514f 82
2fe87f02
SF
83Version 1.46
84------------
85Support deep tree mounts. Better support OS/2, Win9x (DOS) time stamps.
4b952a9b
SF
86Allow null user to be specified on mount ("username="). Do not return
87EINVAL on readdir when filldir fails due to overwritten blocksize
8e87d4dc
SF
88(fixes FC problem). Return error in rename 2nd attempt retry (ie report
89if rename by handle also fails, after rename by path fails, we were
33ec32fa
SF
90not reporting whether the retry worked or not). Fix NTLMv2 to
91work to Windows servers (mount with option "sec=ntlmv2").
2fe87f02 92
3a5ff61c
SF
93Version 1.45
94------------
95Do not time out lockw calls when using posix extensions. Do not
96time out requests if server still responding reasonably fast
e466e487
SF
97on requests on other threads. Improve POSIX locking emulation,
98(lock cancel now works, and unlock of merged range works even
99to Windows servers now). Fix oops on mount to lanman servers
ea4c07d7 100(win9x, os/2 etc.) when null password. Do not send listxattr
2fe87f02
SF
101(SMB to query all EAs) if nouser_xattr specified. Fix SE Linux
102problem (instantiate inodes/dentries in right order for readdir).
3a5ff61c 103
3979877e
SF
104Version 1.44
105------------
106Rewritten sessionsetup support, including support for legacy SMB
107session setup needed for OS/2 and older servers such as Windows 95 and 98.
5bafd765
SF
108Fix oops on ls to OS/2 servers. Add support for level 1 FindFirst
109so we can do search (ls etc.) to OS/2. Do not send NTCreateX
110or recent levels of FindFirst unless server says it supports NT SMBs
1717ffc5
SF
111(instead use legacy equivalents from LANMAN dialect). Fix to allow
112NTLMv2 authentication support (now can use stronger password hashing
750d1151
SF
113on mount if corresponding /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags is set (0x4004).
114Allow override of global cifs security flags on mount via "sec=" option(s).
3979877e 115
fc94cdb9
SF
116Version 1.43
117------------
118POSIX locking to servers which support CIFS POSIX Extensions
a878fb22
SF
119(disabled by default controlled by proc/fs/cifs/Experimental).
120Handle conversion of long share names (especially Asian languages)
26a21b98
SF
121to Unicode during mount. Fix memory leak in sess struct on reconnect.
122Fix rare oops after acpi suspend. Fix O_TRUNC opens to overwrite on
123cifs open which helps rare case when setpathinfo fails or server does
124not support it.
fc94cdb9 125
13298def
SF
126Version 1.42
127------------
128Fix slow oplock break when mounted to different servers at the same time and
60808233
SF
129the tids match and we try to find matching fid on wrong server. Fix read
130looping when signing required by server (2.6.16 kernel only). Fix readdir
131vs. rename race which could cause each to hang. Return . and .. even
132if server does not. Allow searches to skip first three entries and
133begin at any location. Fix oops in find_writeable_file.
13298def 134
12b3b8ff
SF
135Version 1.41
136------------
137Fix NTLMv2 security (can be enabled in /proc/fs/cifs) so customers can
138configure stronger authentication. Fix sfu symlinks so they can
184ed211
SF
139be followed (not just recognized). Fix wraparound of bcc on
140read responses when buffer size over 64K and also fix wrap of
141max smb buffer size when CIFSMaxBufSize over 64K. Fix oops in
142cifs_user_read and cifs_readpages (when EAGAIN on send of smb
08547b03
SF
143on socket is returned over and over). Add POSIX (advisory) byte range
144locking support (requires server with newest CIFS UNIX Extensions
083d3a2c
SF
145to the protocol implemented). Slow down negprot slightly in port 139
146RFC1001 case to give session_init time on buggy servers.
12b3b8ff 147
83451879
SF
148Version 1.40
149------------
84afc29b 150Use fsuid (fsgid) more consistently instead of uid (gid). Improve performance
0a4b92c0
SF
151of readpages by eliminating one extra memcpy. Allow update of file size
152from remote server even if file is open for write as long as mount is
eeac8047
SF
153directio. Recognize share mode security and send NTLM encrypted password
154on tree connect if share mode negotiated.
83451879 155
23e7dd7d
SF
156Version 1.39
157------------
3abb9272 158Defer close of a file handle slightly if pending writes depend on that handle
23e7dd7d 159(this reduces the EBADF bad file handle errors that can be logged under heavy
3c50c618 160stress on writes). Modify cifs Kconfig options to expose CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2
3abb9272
SF
161Fix SFU style symlinks and mknod needed for servers which do not support the
162CIFS Unix Extensions. Fix setfacl/getfacl on bigendian. Timeout negative
163dentries so files that the client sees as deleted but that later get created
6473a559 164on the server will be recognized. Add client side permission check on setattr.
83451879
SF
165Timeout stuck requests better (where server has never responded or sent corrupt
166responses)
23e7dd7d 167
190fdeb8
SF
168Version 1.38
169------------
170Fix tcp socket retransmission timeouts (e.g. on ENOSPACE from the socket)
171to be smaller at first (but increasing) so large write performance performance
172over GigE is better. Do not hang thread on illegal byte range lock response
173from Windows (Windows can send an RFC1001 size which does not match smb size) by
174allowing an SMBs TCP length to be up to a few bytes longer than it should be.
175wsize and rsize can now be larger than negotiated buffer size if server
176supports large readx/writex, even when directio mount flag not specified.
177Write size will in many cases now be 16K instead of 4K which greatly helps
4ca9c190 178file copy performance on lightly loaded networks. Fix oops in dnotify
1047abc1 179when experimental config flag enabled. Make cifsFYI more granular.
190fdeb8 180
eafe8701
SF
181Version 1.37
182------------
183Fix readdir caching when unlink removes file in current search buffer,
184and this is followed by a rewind search to just before the deleted entry.
e30dcf3a 185Do not attempt to set ctime unless atime and/or mtime change requested
20962438 186(most servers throw it away anyway). Fix length check of received smbs
70ca734a
SF
187to be more accurate. Fix big endian problem with mapchars mount option,
188and with a field returned by statfs.
eafe8701 189
c46fa8ac
SF
190Version 1.36
191------------
c0c3e8ed 192Add support for mounting to older pre-CIFS servers such as Windows9x and ME.
6b8edfe0 193For these older servers, add option for passing netbios name of server in
16abbecd
SF
194on mount (servernetbiosname). Add suspend support for power management, to
195avoid cifsd thread preventing software suspend from working.
c46fa8ac
SF
196Add mount option for disabling the default behavior of sending byte range lock
197requests to the server (necessary for certain applications which break with
198mandatory lock behavior such as Evolution), and also mount option for
199requesting case insensitive matching for path based requests (requesting
200case sensitive is the default).
201
f4cfd69c
SF
202Version 1.35
203------------
204Add writepage performance improvements. Fix path name conversions
205for long filenames on mounts which were done with "mapchars" mount option
a10faeb2
SF
206specified. Ensure multiplex ids do not collide. Fix case in which
207rmmod can oops if done soon after last unmount. Fix truncated
208search (readdir) output when resume filename was a long filename.
209Fix filename conversion when mapchars mount option was specified and
210filename was a long filename.
f4cfd69c 211
11aa0149
SF
212Version 1.34
213------------
214Fix error mapping of the TOO_MANY_LINKS (hardlinks) case.
31ca3bc3
SF
215Do not oops if root user kills cifs oplock kernel thread or
216kills the cifsd thread (NB: killing the cifs kernel threads is not
217recommended, unmount and rmmod cifs will kill them when they are
68575476 218no longer needed). Fix readdir to ASCII servers (ie older servers
c0c3e8ed 219which do not support Unicode) and also require asterisk.
3079ca62
SF
220Fix out of memory case in which data could be written one page
221off in the page cache.
11aa0149 222
966ca923
SF
223Version 1.33
224------------
225Fix caching problem, in which readdir of directory containing a file
226which was cached could cause the file's time stamp to be updated
227without invalidating the readahead data (so we could get stale
228file data on the client for that file even as the server copy changed).
cd63499c
SF
229Cleanup response processing so cifsd can not loop when abnormally
230terminated.
966ca923
SF
231
232
f654bac2 233Version 1.32
1da177e4
LT
234------------
235Fix oops in ls when Transact2 FindFirst (or FindNext) returns more than one
236transact response for an SMB request and search entry split across two frames.
f654bac2
SF
237Add support for lsattr (getting ext2/ext3/reiserfs attr flags from the server)
238as new protocol extensions. Do not send Get/Set calls for POSIX ACLs
239unless server explicitly claims to support them in CIFS Unix extensions
ad009ac9 240POSIX ACL capability bit. Fix packet signing when multiuser mounting with
cbe0476f 241different users from the same client to the same server. Fix oops in
6a0b4824
SF
242cifs_close. Add mount option for remapping reserved characters in
243filenames (also allow recognizing files with created by SFU which have any
737b758c 244of these seven reserved characters, except backslash, to be recognized).
848f3fce 245Fix invalid transact2 message (we were sometimes trying to interpret
099a58f6
SF
246oplock breaks as SMB responses). Add ioctl for checking that the
247current uid matches the uid of the mounter (needed by umount.cifs).
248Reduce the number of large buffer allocations in cifs response processing
249(significantly reduces memory pressure under heavy stress with multiple
250processes accessing the same server at the same time).
f654bac2
SF
251
252Version 1.31
253------------
1da177e4
LT
254Fix updates of DOS attributes and time fields so that files on NT4 servers
255do not get marked delete on close. Display sizes of cifs buffer pools in
256cifs stats. Fix oops in unmount when cifsd thread being killed by
257shutdown. Add generic readv/writev and aio support. Report inode numbers
258consistently in readdir and lookup (when serverino mount option is
259specified use the inode number that the server reports - for both lookup
260and readdir, otherwise by default the locally generated inode number is used
261for inodes created in either path since servers are not always able to
262provide unique inode numbers when exporting multiple volumes from under one
263sharename).
264
265Version 1.30
266------------
267Allow new nouser_xattr mount parm to disable xattr support for user namespace.
268Do not flag user_xattr mount parm in dmesg. Retry failures setting file time
269(mostly affects NT4 servers) by retry with handle based network operation.
270Add new POSIX Query FS Info for returning statfs info more accurately.
271Handle passwords with multiple commas in them.
272
273Version 1.29
274------------
275Fix default mode in sysfs of cifs module parms. Remove old readdir routine.
276Fix capabilities flags for large readx so as to allow reads larger than 64K.
277
278Version 1.28
279------------
280Add module init parm for large SMB buffer size (to allow it to be changed
281from its default of 16K) which is especially useful for large file copy
282when mounting with the directio mount option. Fix oops after
283returning from mount when experimental ExtendedSecurity enabled and
284SpnegoNegotiated returning invalid error. Fix case to retry better when
285peek returns from 1 to 3 bytes on socket which should have more data.
286Fixed path based calls (such as cifs lookup) to handle path names
287longer than 530 (now can handle PATH_MAX). Fix pass through authentication
288from Samba server to DC (Samba required dummy LM password).
289
290Version 1.27
291------------
292Turn off DNOTIFY (directory change notification support) by default
293(unless built with the experimental flag) to fix hang with KDE
294file browser. Fix DNOTIFY flag mappings. Fix hang (in wait_event
295waiting on an SMB response) in SendReceive when session dies but
296reconnects quickly from another task. Add module init parms for
297minimum number of large and small network buffers in the buffer pools,
298and for the maximum number of simultaneous requests.
299
300Version 1.26
301------------
302Add setfacl support to allow setting of ACLs remotely to Samba 3.10 and later
303and other POSIX CIFS compliant servers. Fix error mapping for getfacl
304to EOPNOTSUPP when server does not support posix acls on the wire. Fix
305improperly zeroed buffer in CIFS Unix extensions set times call.
306
307Version 1.25
308------------
c0c3e8ed 309Fix internationalization problem in cifs readdir with filenames that map to
4de151d8 310longer UTF-8 strings than the string on the wire was in Unicode. Add workaround
1da177e4
LT
311for readdir to netapp servers. Fix search rewind (seek into readdir to return
312non-consecutive entries). Do not do readdir when server negotiates
313buffer size to small to fit filename. Add support for reading POSIX ACLs from
314the server (add also acl and noacl mount options).
315
316Version 1.24
317------------
318Optionally allow using server side inode numbers, rather than client generated
319ones by specifying mount option "serverino" - this is required for some apps
320to work which double check hardlinked files and have persistent inode numbers.
321
322Version 1.23
323------------
324Multiple bigendian fixes. On little endian systems (for reconnect after
325network failure) fix tcp session reconnect code so we do not try first
326to reconnect on reverse of port 445. Treat reparse points (NTFS junctions)
327as directories rather than symlinks because we can do follow link on them.
328
329Version 1.22
330------------
331Add config option to enable XATTR (extended attribute) support, mapping
332xattr names in the "user." namespace space to SMB/CIFS EAs. Lots of
333minor fixes pointed out by the Stanford SWAT checker (mostly missing
334or out of order NULL pointer checks in little used error paths).
335
336Version 1.21
337------------
338Add new mount parm to control whether mode check (generic_permission) is done
339on the client. If Unix extensions are enabled and the uids on the client
340and server do not match, client permission checks are meaningless on
341server uids that do not exist on the client (this does not affect the
342normal ACL check which occurs on the server). Fix default uid
343on mknod to match create and mkdir. Add optional mount parm to allow
344override of the default uid behavior (in which the server sets the uid
345and gid of newly created files). Normally for network filesystem mounts
346user want the server to set the uid/gid on newly created files (rather than
347using uid of the client processes you would in a local filesystem).
348
349Version 1.20
350------------
351Make transaction counts more consistent. Merge /proc/fs/cifs/SimultaneousOps
352info into /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData. Fix oops in rare oops in readdir
353(in build_wildcard_path_from_dentry). Fix mknod to pass type field
354(block/char/fifo) properly. Remove spurious mount warning log entry when
355credentials passed as mount argument. Set major/minor device number in
356inode for block and char devices when unix extensions enabled.
357
358Version 1.19
359------------
360Fix /proc/fs/cifs/Stats and DebugData display to handle larger
361amounts of return data. Properly limit requests to MAX_REQ (50
362is the usual maximum active multiplex SMB/CIFS requests per server).
363Do not kill cifsd (and thus hurt the other SMB session) when more than one
364session to the same server (but with different userids) exists and one
365of the two user's smb sessions is being removed while leaving the other.
366Do not loop reconnecting in cifsd demultiplex thread when admin
367kills the thread without going through unmount.
368
369Version 1.18
370------------
371Do not rename hardlinked files (since that should be a noop). Flush
372cached write behind data when reopening a file after session abend,
373except when already in write. Grab per socket sem during reconnect
374to avoid oops in sendmsg if overlapping with reconnect. Do not
375reset cached inode file size on readdir for files open for write on
376client.
377
378
379Version 1.17
380------------
381Update number of blocks in file so du command is happier (in Linux a fake
382blocksize of 512 is required for calculating number of blocks in inode).
383Fix prepare write of partial pages to read in data from server if possible.
384Fix race on tcpStatus field between unmount and reconnection code, causing
385cifsd process sometimes to hang around forever. Improve out of memory
386checks in cifs_filldir
387
388Version 1.16
389------------
390Fix incorrect file size in file handle based setattr on big endian hardware.
391Fix oops in build_path_from_dentry when out of memory. Add checks for invalid
392and closing file structs in writepage/partialpagewrite. Add statistics
393for each mounted share (new menuconfig option). Fix endianness problem in
394volume information displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData (only affects
395affects big endian architectures). Prevent renames while constructing
396path names for open, mkdir and rmdir.
397
398Version 1.15
399------------
400Change to mempools for alloc smb request buffers and multiplex structs
401to better handle low memory problems (and potential deadlocks).
402
403Version 1.14
404------------
405Fix incomplete listings of large directories on Samba servers when Unix
406extensions enabled. Fix oops when smb_buffer can not be allocated. Fix
407rename deadlock when writing out dirty pages at same time.
408
409Version 1.13
410------------
411Fix open of files in which O_CREATE can cause the mode to change in
412some cases. Fix case in which retry of write overlaps file close.

455Send NTCreateX with ATTR_POSIX if Linux/Unix extensions negotiated with server.
456This allows files that differ only in case and improves performance of file
457creation and file open to such servers. Fix semaphore conflict which causes
458slow delete of open file to Samba (which unfortunately can cause an oplock
459break to self while vfs_unlink held i_sem) which can hang for 20 seconds.

473------------
474Connect to server when port number override not specified, and tcp port
475unitialized. Reset search to restart at correct file when kernel routine
476filldir returns error during large directory searches (readdir).
477
478Version 1.02
479------------
480Fix caching problem when files opened by multiple clients in which
481page cache could contain stale data, and write through did
482not occur often enough while file was still open when read ahead
483(read oplock) not allowed. Treat "sep=" when first mount option
c0c3e8ed 484as an override of comma as the default separator between mount
1da177e4

496
497Version 0.99
498------------
499Invalidate local inode cached pages on oplock break and when last file
500instance is closed so that the client does not continue using stale local
501copy rather than later modified server copy of file. Do not reconnect
502when server drops the tcp session prematurely before negotiate
c0c3e8ed 503protocol response. Fix oops in reopen_file when dentry freed. Allow
1da177e4
LT
504the support for CIFS Unix Extensions to be disabled via proc interface.
505
506Version 0.98
507------------
508Fix hang in commit_write during reconnection of open files under heavy load.
509Fix unload_nls oops in a mount failure path. Serialize writes to same socket

513Version 0.97
514------------
515Fix byte range locking bug (endian problem) causing bad offset and
516length.
517
518Version 0.96
519------------
520Fix oops (in send_sig) caused by CIFS unmount code trying to
521wake up the demultiplex thread after it had exited. Do not log

523
524Version 0.95
525------------
526Fix unsafe global variable usage and password hash failure on gcc 3.3.1

590access many recent Windows servers)
591
592Version 0.83
593------------
594Fix oops when mounting to long server names caused by inverted parms to kmalloc.
595Fix MultiuserMount (/proc/fs/cifs configuration setting) so that when enabled
596we will choose a cifs user session (smb uid) that better matches the local

678
679Version 0.69
680------------
681Fix buffer overrun in readdir which caused intermittent kernel oopses.
682Fix writepage code to release kmap on write data. Allow "-ip=" new
683mount option to be passed in on parameter distinct from the first part
684(server name portion of) the UNC name. Allow override of the
685tcp port of the target server via new mount option "-port="
686
687Version 0.68
688------------
689Fix search handle leak on rewind. Fix setuid and gid so that they are
690reflected in the local inode immediately. Cleanup of whitespace

692
693
694Version 0.67
695------------
696Fix signal sending so that captive thread (cifsd) exits on umount
697(which was causing the warning in kmem_cache_free of the request buffers
698at rmmod time). This had broken as a sideeffect of the recent global
699kernel change to daemonize. Fix memory leak in readdir code which
700showed up in "ls -R" (and applications that did search rewinding).

720
721Version 0.63
722------------
723Fix memory leak in AllocMidQEntry.

728------------
729Fix temporary socket leak when bad userid or password specified
730(or other SMBSessSetup failure). Increase maximum buffer size to slightly

735------------
736Fix oops when username not passed in on mount. Extensive fixes and improvements
737to error logging (strip redundant newlines, change debug macros to ensure newline
738passed in and to be more consistent). Fix writepage wrong file handle problem,
739a readonly file handle could be incorrectly used to attempt to write out
740file updates through the page cache to multiply open files. This could cause
741the iozone benchmark to fail on the fwrite test. Fix bug mounting two different
742shares to the same Windows server when using different usernames
743(doing this to Samba servers worked but Windows was rejecting it) - now it is
744possible to use different userids when connecting to the same server from a
745Linux client. Fix oops when treeDisconnect called during unmount on
746previously freed socket.
747
748Version 0.60

841
842Version 0.41
843------------
844Various minor fixes for Connectathon Posix "basic" file i/o test suite. Directory caching fixed so hardlinked

903
9044) Fixed error logging of valid mount options
905
9065) Removed logging of password field.
907
9086) Moved negotiate, treeDisconnect and uloggoffX (only tConx and SessSetup remain in connect.c) to cifssmb.c
