2012-05-23CIFS: Introduce SMB2 Kconfig optionSteve French
SMB2 is the followon to the CIFS (and SMB) protocols and the default for Windows since Windows Vista, and also now implemented by various non-Windows servers. SMB2 is more secure, has various performance advantages, including larger i/o sizes, flow control, better caching model and more. SMB2 also resolves some scalability limits in the CIFS protocol and adds many new features while being much simpler (only a few dozen commands instead of hundreds) and since the protocol is clearer it is also more consistently implemented across servers and thus easier to optimize. After much discussion with Jeff Layton, Jeremy Allison and others at Connectathon, we decided to move the SMB2 code from a distinct .ko and fstype into distinct C files that optionally build in cifs.ko. As a result the Kconfig gets simpler. To avoid destabilizing CIFS, the SMB2 code is going to be moved into its own experimental CONFIG_CIFS_SMB2 ifdef as it is merged and rereviewed. The changes to stable CIFS (builds with the SMB2 ifdef off) are expected to be fairly small.

2011-06-24cifs: mark CONFIG_CIFS_NFSD_EXPORT as BROKENJeff Layton
This does not work properly with CIFS as current servers do not enable support for the FILE_OPEN_BY_FILE_ID on SMB NTCreateX and not all NFS clients handle ESTALE. For now, it just plain doesn't work. Mark it BROKEN to discourage distros from enabling it. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

2010-10-26NTLM auth and sign - Define crypto hash functions and create and send keys ↵Shirish Pargaonkar
needed for key exchange Mark dependency on crypto modules in Kconfig. Defining per structures sdesc and cifs_secmech which are used to store crypto hash functions and contexts. They are stored per smb connection and used for all auth mechs to genereate hash values and signatures. Allocate crypto hashing functions, security descriptiors, and respective contexts when a smb/tcp connection is established. Release them when a tcp/smb connection is taken down. md5 and hmac-md5 are two crypto hashing functions that are used throught the life of an smb/tcp connection by various functions that calcualte signagure and ntlmv2 hash, HMAC etc. structure ntlmssp_auth is defined as per smb connection. ntlmssp_auth holds ciphertext which is genereated by rc4/arc4 encryption of secondary key, a nonce using ntlmv2 session key and sent in the session key field of the type 3 message sent by the client during ntlmssp negotiation/exchange A key is exchanged with the server if client indicates so in flags in type 1 messsage and server agrees in flag in type 2 message of ntlmssp negotiation. If both client and agree, a key sent by client in type 3 message of ntlmssp negotiation in the session key field. The key is a ciphertext generated off of secondary key, a nonce, using ntlmv2 hash via rc4/arc4. Signing works for ntlmssp in this patch. The sequence number within the server structure needs to be zero until session is established i.e. till type 3 packet of ntlmssp exchange of a to be very first smb session on that smb connection is sent.

Make ntlmv2 as an authentication mechanism within ntlmssp instead of ntlmv1. Parse type 2 response in ntlmssp negotiation to pluck AV pairs and use them to calculate ntlmv2 response token. Also, assign domain name from the sever response in type 2 packet of ntlmssp and use that (netbios) domain name in calculation of response. Enable cifs/smb signing using rc4 and md5. Changed name of the structure mac_key to session_key to reflect the type of key it holds. Use kernel crypto_shash_* APIs instead of the equivalent cifs functions.

2010-08-05DNS: Separate out CIFS DNS Resolver codeWang Lei
Separate out the DNS resolver key type from the CIFS filesystem into its own module so that it can be made available for general use, including the AFS filesystem module. This facility makes it possible for the kernel to upcall to userspace to have it issue DNS requests, package up the replies and present them to the kernel in a useful form. The kernel is then able to cache the DNS replies as keys can be retained in keyrings. Resolver keys are of type "dns_resolver" and have a case-insensitive description that is of the form "[<type>:]<domain_name>". The optional <type> indicates the particular DNS lookup and packaging that's required. The <domain_name> is the query to be made. If <type> isn't given, a basic hostname to IP address lookup is made, and the result is stored in the key in the form of a printable string consisting of a comma-separated list of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This key type is supported by userspace helpers driven from /sbin/request-key and configured through /etc/request-key.conf. The cifs.upcall utility is invoked for UNC path server name to IP address resolution. The CIFS functionality is encapsulated by the dns_resolve_unc_to_ip() function, which is used to resolve a UNC path to an IP address for CIFS filesystem. This part remains in the CIFS module for now. See the added Documentation/networking/dns_resolver.txt for more information.

2010-07-22cifs: use workqueue instead of slow-workTejun Heo
Workqueue can now handle high concurrency. Use system_nrt_wq instead of slow-work. * Updated is_valid_oplock_break() to not call cifs_oplock_break_put() as advised by Steve French. It might cause deadlock. Instead, reference is increased after queueing succeeded and cifs_oplock_break() briefly grabs GlobalSMBSeslock before putting the cfile to make sure it doesn't put before the matching get is finished. * Anton Blanchard reported that cifs conversion was using now gone system_single_wq. Use system_nrt_wq which provides non-reentrance guarantee which is enough and much better.

2009-09-24cifs: convert oplock breaks to use slow_work facility (try #4)Jeff Layton
This is the fourth respin of the patch to convert oplock breaks to use the slow_work facility. A customer of ours was testing a backport of one of the earlier patchsets, and hit a "Busy inodes after umount..." problem. An oplock break job had raced with a umount, and the superblock got torn down and its memory reused. When the oplock break job tried to dereference the inode->i_sb, the kernel oopsed. This patchset has the oplock break job hold an inode and vfsmount reference until the oplock break completes. With this, there should be no need to take a tcon reference (the vfsmount implicitly holds one already). Currently, when an oplock break comes in there's a chance that the oplock break job won't occur if the allocation of the oplock_q_entry fails. There are also some rather nasty races in the allocation and handling these structs. Rather than allocating oplock queue entries when an oplock break comes in, add a few extra fields to the cifsFileInfo struct. Get rid of the dedicated cifs_oplock_thread as well and queue the oplock break job to the slow_work thread pool. This approach also has the advantage that the oplock break jobs can potentially run in parallel rather than be serialized like they are today.
