Al Viro ebfc3b49a7 don't pass nameidata to ->create()
boolean "does it have to be exclusive?" flag is passed instead;
Local filesystem should just ignore it - the object is guaranteed
not to be there yet.

Al Viro 00cd8dd3bf stop passing nameidata to ->lookup()
Just the flags; only NFS cares even about that, but there are
legitimate uses for such argument.  And getting rid of that
completely would require splitting ->lookup() into a couple

Ian Kent 936ad90944 cifs - check S_AUTOMOUNT in revalidate
When revalidating a dentry, if the inode wasn't known to be a dfs
entry when the dentry was instantiated, such as when created via
->readdir(), the DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT flag needs to be set on the
dentry in ->d_revalidate().

The false return from cifs_d_revalidate(), due to the inode now
being marked with the S_AUTOMOUNT flag, might not invalidate the
dentry if there is a concurrent unlazy path walk. This is because
the dentry reference count will be at least 2 in this case causing
d_invalidate() to return EBUSY. So the asumption that the dentry
will be discarded then correctly instantiated via ->lookup() might
not hold.

Jeff Layton 5bccda0ebc cifs: fix dentry refcount leak when opening a FIFO on lookup
The cifs code will attempt to open files on lookup under certain
circumstances. What happens though if we find that the file we opened
was actually a FIFO or other special file?

Currently, the open filehandle just ends up being leaked leading to
a dentry refcount mismatch and oops on umount. Fix this by having the
code close the filehandle on the server if it turns out not to be a
regular file. While we're at it, change this spaghetti if statement
into a switch too.

Shirish Pargaonkar 3d3ea8e64e cifs: Add mount options for backup intent (try #6)
Add mount options backupuid and backugid.

It allows an authenticated user to access files with the intent to back them
up including their ACLs, who may not have access permission but has
"Backup files and directories user right" on them (by virtue of being part
of the built-in group Backup Operators.

When mount options backupuid is specified, cifs client restricts the
use of backup intents to the user whose effective user id is specified
along with the mount option.

When mount options backupgid is specified, cifs client restricts the
use of backup intents to the users whose effective user id belongs to the
group id specified along with the mount option.

If an authenticated user is not part of the built-in group Backup Operators
at the server, access to such files is denied, even if allowed by the client.

Steve French e75047344e add new module parameter 'enable_oplocks'
Thus spake Jeff Layton:

"Making that a module parm would allow you to set that parameter at boot
time without needing to add special startup scripts. IMO, all of the
procfile "switches" under /proc/fs/cifs should be module parms
instead."

This patch doesn't alter the default behavior (Oplocks are enabled by
default).

To disable oplocks when loading the module, use

   modprobe cifs enable_oplocks=0

(any of '0' or 'n' or 'N' conventions can be used).

To disable oplocks at runtime using the new interface, use

   echo 0 > /sys/module/cifs/parameters/enable_oplocks

The older /proc/fs/cifs/OplockEnabled interface will be deprecated
after two releases. A subsequent patch will add an warning message
about this deprecation.

Changes since v2:
   - make enable_oplocks a 'bool'

Changes since v1:
   - eliminate the use of extra variable by renaming the old one to
     enable_oplocks and make it an 'int' type.

Jeff Layton fa71f44706 cifs: demote cERROR in build_path_from_dentry to cFYI
Running the cthon tests on a recent kernel caused this message to pop
occasionally:

    CIFS VFS: did not end path lookup where expected namelen is 0

Some added debugging showed that namelen and dfsplen were both 0 when
this occurred. That means that the read_seqretry returned true.

Assuming that the comment inside the if statement is true, this should
be harmless and just means that we raced with a rename. If that is the
case, then there's no need for alarm and we can demote this to cFYI.

While we're at it, print the dfsplen too so that we can see what
happened here if the message pops during debugging.

cifs_convert_posix_flags to do the conversion. Move cifs_posix_open to
file.c as well so we can keep cifs_convert_posix_flags as a static
function.

Fix it also to not ignore O_CREAT, O_EXCL and O_TRUNC, and instead have

Jeff Layton d7c86ff8cd cifs: don't use vfsmount to pin superblock for oplock breaks
Filesystems aren't really supposed to do anything with a vfsmount. It's
considered a layering violation since vfsmounts are entirely managed at
the VFS layer.

CIFS currently keeps an active reference to a vfsmount in order to
prevent the superblock vanishing before an oplock break has completed.
What we really want to do instead is to keep sb->s_active high until the
oplock break has completed. This patch borrows the scheme that NFS uses
for handling sillyrenames.

An atomic_t is added to the cifs_sb_info. When it transitions from 0 to
1, an extra reference to the superblock is taken (by bumping the
s_active value). When it transitions from 1 to 0, that reference is
dropped and a the superblock teardown may proceed if there are no more
references to it.

Also, the vfsmount pointer is removed from cifsFileInfo and from
cifs_new_fileinfo, and some bogus forward declarations are removed from
cifsfs.h.

Jeff Layton a5e18bc36e cifs: keep dentry reference in cifsFileInfo instead of inode reference
cifsFileInfo is a bit problematic. It contains a reference back to the
struct file itself. This makes it difficult for a cifsFileInfo to exist
without a corresponding struct file.

It would be better instead of the cifsFileInfo just held info pertaining
to the open file on the server instead without any back refrences to the
struct file. This would allow it to exist after the filp to which it was
originally attached was closed.

Much of the use of the file pointer in this struct is to get at the
dentry.  Begin divorcing the cifsFileInfo from the struct file by
keeping a reference to the dentry. Since the dentry will have a
reference to the inode, we can eliminate the "pInode" field too and
convert the igrab/iput to dget/dput.

Jeff Layton 6508d904e6 cifs: have find_readable/writable_file filter by fsuid
When we implement multiuser mounts, we'll need to filter filehandles
by fsuid. Add a flag for multiuser mounts and code to filter by
fsuid when it's set.
