f06ac72e92 cifs, freezer: add wait_event_freezekillable and have cifs use it
CIFS currently uses wait_event_killable to put tasks to sleep while
they await replies from the server. That function though does not
allow the freezer to run. In many cases, the network interface may
be going down anyway, in which case the reply will never come. The
client then ends up blocking the computer from suspending.

Fix this by adding a new wait_event_freezable variant --
wait_event_freezekillable. The idea is to combine the behavior of
wait_event_killable and wait_event_freezable -- put the task to
sleep and only allow it to be awoken by fatal signals, but also
allow the freezer to do its job.

5eba8ab360 cifs: allow for larger rsize= options and change defaults
Currently we cap the rsize at a value that fits in CIFSMaxBufSize. That's
not needed any longer for readpages. Allow the use of larger values for
readpages. cifs_iovec_read and cifs_read however are still limited to the
CIFSMaxBufSize. Make sure they don't exceed that.

The patch also changes the rsize defaults. The default when unix
extensions are enabled is set to 1M for parity with the wsize, and there
is a hard cap of ~16M.

When unix extensions are not enabled, the default is set to 60k. According
to MS-CIFS, Windows servers can only send a max of 60k at a time, so
this is more efficient than requesting a larger size. If the user wishes
however, the max can be extended up to 128k - the length of the READ_RSP
header.

Really old servers however require a special hack to ensure that we don't
request too large a read.

690c5e3163 cifs: convert cifs_readpages to use async reads
Now that we have code in place to do asynchronous reads, convert
cifs_readpages to use it. The new cifs_readpages walks the page_list
that gets passed in, locks and adds the pages to the pagecache and
sets up cifs_readdata to handle the reads.

The rest is handled by the cifs_async_readv infrastructure.

e28bc5b1fd cifs: add cifs_async_readv
...which will allow cifs to do an asynchronous read call to the server.
The caller will allocate and set up cifs_readdata for each READ_AND_X
call that should be issued on the wire. The pages passed in are added
to the pagecache, but not placed on the LRU list yet (as we need the
page->lru to keep the pages on the list in the readdata).

When cifsd identifies the mid, it will see that there is a special
receive handler for the call, and use that to receive the rest of the
frame. cifs_readv_receive will then marshal up a kvec array with
kmapped pages from the pagecache, which eliminates one copy of the
data. Once the data is received, the pages are added to the LRU list,
set uptodate, and unlocked.

44d22d846f cifs: add a callback function to receive the rest of the frame
In order to handle larger SMBs for readpages and other calls, we want
to be able to read into a preallocated set of buffers. Rather than
changing all of the existing code to preallocate buffers however, we
instead add a receive callback function to the MID.

cifsd will call this function once the mid_q_entry has been identified
in order to receive the rest of the SMB. If the mid can't be identified
or the receive pointer is unset, then the standard 3rd phase receive
function will be called.

ffc00e27aa cifs: eliminate is_multi_rsp parm to find_cifs_mid
Change find_cifs_mid to only return NULL if a mid could not be found.
If we got part of a multi-part T2 response, then coalesce it and still
return the mid. The caller can determine the T2 receive status from
the flags in the mid.

With this change, there is no need to pass a pointer to "length" as
well so just pass by value. If a mid is found, then we can just mark
it as malformed. If one isn't found, then the value of "length" won't
change anyway.

a5ff376966 cifs: Call id to SID mapping functions to change owner/group (try #4 repost)
Now build security descriptor to change either owner or group at the
server.  Initially security descriptor was built to change only
(D)ACL, that functionality has been extended.

When either an Owner or a Group of a file object at the server is changed,
rest of security descriptor remains same (DACL etc.).

To set security descriptor, it is necessary to open that file
with permission bits of either WRITE_DAC if DACL is being modified or
WRITE_OWNER (Take Ownership) if Owner or Group is being changed.

It is the server that decides whether a set security descriptor with
either owner or group change succeeds or not.

21fed0d5b7 cifs: Add data structures and functions for uid/gid to SID mapping (try #4)
Add data structures and functions necessary to map a uid and gid to SID.
These functions are very similar to the ones used to map a SID to uid and gid.
This time, instead of storing sid to id mapping sorted on a sid value,
id to sid is stored, sorted on an id.
A cifs upcall sends an id (uid or gid) and expects a SID structure
in return, if mapping was done successfully.

A failed id to sid mapping to EINVAL.

This patchset aims to enable chown and chgrp commands when
cifsacl mount option is specified, especially to Windows SMB servers.
Currently we can't do that.  So now along with chmod command,
chown and chgrp work.

Winbind is used to map id to a SID.  chown and chgrp use an upcall
to provide an id to winbind and upcall returns with corrosponding
SID if any exists. That SID is used to build security descriptor.
The DACL part of a security descriptor is not changed by either
chown or chgrp functionality.

cifs client maintains a separate caches for uid to SID and
gid to SID mapping. This is similar to the one used earlier
to map SID to id (as part of ID mapping code).

I tested it by mounting shares from a Windows (2003) server by
authenticating as two users, one at a time, as Administrator and
as a ordinary user.
And then attempting to change owner of a file on the share.

Depending on the permissions/privileges at the server for that file,
chown request fails to either open a file (to change the ownership)
or to set security descriptor.
So it all depends on privileges on the file at the server and what
user you are authenticated as at the server, cifs client is just a
conduit.

I compared the security descriptor during chown command to that
what smbcacls sends when it is used with -M OWNNER: option
and they are similar.

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.

9d1e397b7b [CIFS] Fix first time message on mount, ntlmv2 upgrade delayed to 3.2
Microsoft has a bug with ntlmv2 that requires use of ntlmssp, but
we didn't get the required information on when/how to use ntlmssp to
old (but once very popular) legacy servers (various NT4 fixpacks
for example) until too late to merge for 3.1.  Will upgrade
to NTLMv2 in NTLMSSP in 3.2

b6316429af Btrfs: force a page fault if we have a shorty copy on a page boundary
A user reported a problem where ceph was getting into 100% cpu usage while doing
some writing.  It turns out it's because we were doing a short write on a not
uptodate page, which means we'd fall back at one page at a time and fault the
page in.  The problem is our position is on the page boundary, so our fault in
logic wasn't actually reading the page, so we'd just spin forever or until the
page got read in by somebody else.  This will force a readpage if we end up
doing a short copy.  Alexandre could reproduce this easily with ceph and reports
it fixes his problem.  I also wrote a reproducer that no longer hangs my box
with this patch.  Thanks,

b6c8069d35 vfs: remove LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag
That flag no longer makes sense, since we don't look up automount points
as eagerly any more.  Additionally, it turns out that the NO_AUTOMOUNT
handling was buggy to begin with: it would avoid automounting even for
cases where we really *needed* to do the automount handling, and could
return ENOENT for autofs entries that hadn't been instantiated yet.

With our new non-eager automount semantics, one discussion has been
about adding a AT_AUTOMOUNT flag to vfs_fstatat (and thus the
newfstatat() and fstatat64() system calls), but it's probably not worth
it: you can always force at least directory automounting by simply
adding the final '/' to the filename, which works for *all* of the stat
family system calls, old and new.

So AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT (and thus LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT) really were just a
result of our bad default behavior.

815d405cef VFS: Fix the remaining automounter semantics regressions
The concensus seems to be that system calls such as stat() etc should
not trigger an automount.  Neither should the l* versions.

This patch therefore adds a LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag to tag those lookups
that _should_ trigger an automount on the last path element.

[ Edited to leave out the cases that are already covered by LOOKUP_OPEN,
  LOOKUP_DIRECTORY and LOOKUP_CREATE - all of which also fundamentally
  force automounting for their own reasons   - Linus ]
