When opening a file, SMB2_open() attempts to parse the lease state from the
SMB2 CREATE Response. However, the parsing code was not careful to ensure
that the create contexts are not empty or invalid, which can lead to out-
of-bounds memory access. This can be seen easily by trying
to read a file from a OSX 10.11 SMB3 server. Here is sample crash output:

With CIFS_DEBUG_2 enabled, additional debug information is tracked inside each
mid_q_entry struct, however cifs_save_when_sent may use the mid_q_entry after it
has been freed from the appropriate callback if the transport layer has very low
latency. Holding the srv_mutex fixes this use-after-free, as cifs_save_when_sent
is called while the srv_mutex is held while the request is sent.

For krb5 enablement of SMB3, decoding negprot, caller now passes
server struct not the old sec_type

The "sfu" mount option did not work on SMB2/SMB3 mounts.
With these changes when the "sfu" mount option is passed in
on an smb2/smb2.1/smb3 mount the client can emulate (and
recognize) fifo and device (character and device files).
In addition the "sfu" mount option should not conflict
with "mfsymlinks" (symlink emulation) as we will never
create "sfu" style symlinks, but using "sfu" mount option
will allow us to recognize existing symlinks, created with
Microsoft "Services for Unix" (SFU and SUA).
To enable the "sfu" mount option for SMB2/SMB3 the calling
syntax of the generic cifs/smb2/smb3 sync_read and sync_write
protocol dependent function needed to be changed (we
don't have a file struct in all cases), but this actually
ended up simplifying the code a little.

SMB2 servers indicates the end of a directory search with
STATUS_NO_MORE_FILE error code that is not processed now.
This causes generic/257 xfstest to fail. Fix this by triggering
the end of search by this error code in SMB2_query_directory.
Also when negotiating CIFS protocol we tell the server to close
the search automatically at the end and there is no need to do
it itself. In the case of SMB2 protocol, we need to close it
explicitly - separate close directory checks for different
protocols.

Many Linux filesystes make a file "sparse" when extending
a file with ftruncate. This does work for CIFS to Samba
(only) but not for SMB2/SMB3 (to Samba or Windows) since
there is a "set sparse" fsctl which is supposed to be
sent to mark a file as sparse.
This patch marks a file as sparse by sending this simple
set sparse fsctl if it is extended more than 2 pages.
It has been tested to Windows 8.1, Samba and various
SMB2/SMB3 servers which do support setting sparse (and
MacOS which does not appear to support the fsctl yet).
If a server share does not support setting a file
as sparse, then we do not retry setting sparse on that
share.
The disk space savings for sparse files can be quite
large (even more significant on Windows servers than Samba).

When mounting from a Windows 2012R2 server, we hit the following
problem:
1) Mount with any of the following versions - 2.0, 2.1 or 3.0
2) unmount
3) Attempt a mount again using a different SMB version >= 2.0.
You end up with the following failure:
Status code returned 0xc0000203 STATUS_USER_SESSION_DELETED
CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -5
CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -5
I cannot reproduce this issue using a Windows 2008 R2 server.
This appears to be caused because we use the same client guid for the
connection on first mount which we then disconnect and attempt to mount
again using a different protocol version. By generating a new guid each
time a new connection is Negotiated, we avoid hitting this problem.

When we are running SMB3 or SMB3.02 connections which are signed
we need to validate the protocol negotiation information,
to ensure that the negotiate protocol response was not tampered with.
Add the missing FSCTL which is sent at mount time (immediately after
the SMB3 Tree Connect) to validate that the capabilities match
what we think the server sent.
"Secure dialect negotiation is introduced in SMB3 to protect against
man-in-the-middle attempt to downgrade dialect negotiation.
The idea is to prevent an eavesdropper from downgrading the initially
negotiated dialect and capabilities between the client and the server."

This third version of the patch, incorparating feedback from David Disseldorp
extends the ability of copychunk (refcopy) over smb2/smb3 mounts to
handle servers with smaller than usual maximum chunk sizes
and also fixes it to handle files bigger than the maximum chunk sizes
In the future this can be extended further to handle sending
multiple chunk requests in on SMB2 ioctl request which will
further improve performance, but even with one 1MB chunk per

for debugging purposes.
This alignment information and preferred sector
size info will be helpful for the copy offload
patches to setup the right chunks in the CopyChunk
requests. Presumably the knowledge that the
underlying disk is SSD could also help us
make better readahead and writebehind
decisions (something to look at in the future).

cifs mounts
Currently SMB2 and SMB3 mounts do not query the device information at mount time
from the server as is done for cifs. These can be useful for debugging.
This is a minor patch, that extends the previous one (which added ability to
query file system attributes at mount time - this returns the device
characteristics - also via in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData)
