cifs: fix a buffer leak in smb2_query_symlink

2018-06-08T04:39:41Z

This leak was introduced in 91cb74f5142c14dd921ab2d064b7b128054f9fae and caused us to leak one small buffer for every symlink query. Signed-off-by: Ronnie Sahlberg Signed-off-by: Steve French

CIFS: refactor crypto shash/sdesc allocation&free

2018-04-02T01:24:39Z

shash and sdesc and always allocated and freed together. * abstract this in new functions cifs_alloc_hash() and cifs_free_hash(). * make smb2/3 crypto allocation independent from each other. Signed-off-by: Aurelien Aptel Signed-off-by: Steve French Reviewed-by: Ronnie Sahlberg CC: Stable

[SMB3] Remove ifdef since SMB3 (and later) now STRONGLY preferred

2017-07-08T23:57:07Z

Remove the CONFIG_CIFS_SMB2 ifdef and Kconfig option since they must always be on now. For various security reasons, SMB3 and later are STRONGLY preferred over CIFS and older dialects, and SMB3 (and later) will now be the default dialects so we do not want to allow them to be ifdeffed out. In the longer term, we may be able to make older CIFS support disableable in Kconfig with a new set of #ifdef, but we always want SMB3 and later support enabled.

replace ->follow_link() with new method that could stay in RCU mode

2015-12-09T03:41:54Z

new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link(). The differences are: * inode and dentry are passed separately * might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode; the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry. * when called that way it isn't allowed to block and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called in non-RCU mode. It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances converted. Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode. That'll change in the next commits. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Merge branch 'for-linus-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro: "In this pile: pathname resolution rewrite. - recursion in link_path_walk() is gone. - nesting limits on symlinks are gone (the only limit remaining is that the total amount of symlinks is no more than 40, no matter how nested). - "fast" (inline) symlinks are handled without leaving rcuwalk mode. - stack footprint (independent of the nesting) is below kilobyte now, about on par with what it used to be with one level of nested symlinks and ~2.8 times lower than it used to be in the worst case. - struct nameidata is entirely private to fs/namei.c now (not even opaque pointers are being passed around). - ->follow_link() and ->put_link() calling conventions had been changed; all in-tree filesystems converted, out-of-tree should be able to follow reasonably easily.
