Jeff Layton c5fd363d77 cifs: move file_lock off stack in cifs_push_posix_locks
struct file_lock is pretty large, so we really don't want that on the
stack in a potentially long call chain. Reorganize the arguments to
CIFSSMBPosixLock to eliminate the need for that.

Eliminate the get_flag and simply use a non-NULL pLockInfo to indicate
that this is a "get" operation. In order to do that, need to add a new
loff_t argument for the start_offset.

Shirish Pargaonkar 2608bee744 cifs: Include backup intent search flags during searches {try #2)
As observed and suggested by Tushar Gosavi...

---------
readdir calls these function to send TRANS2_FIND_FIRST and
TRANS2_FIND_NEXT command to the server. The current cifs module is
not specifying CIFS_SEARCH_BACKUP_SEARCH flag while sending these
command when backupuid/backupgid is specified. This can be resolved
by specifying CIFS_SEARCH_BACKUP_SEARCH flag.

Jeff Layton 1c89254926 cifs: convert cifs_iovec_read to use async reads
Convert cifs_iovec_read to use async I/O. This also raises the limit on
the rsize for uncached reads. We first allocate a set of pages to hold
the replies, then issue the reads in parallel and then collect the
replies and copy the results into the iovec.

A possible future optimization would be to kmap and inline the iovec
buffers and read the data directly from the socket into that. That would
require some rather complex conversion of the iovec into a kvec however.

Shirish Pargaonkar 9ef5992e44 cifs: Assume passwords are encoded according to iocharset (try #2)
Re-posting a patch originally posted by Oskar Liljeblad after
rebasing on 3.2.

Modify cifs to assume that the supplied password is encoded according
to iocharset.  Before this patch passwords would be treated as
raw 8-bit data, which made authentication with Unicode passwords impossible
(at least passwords with characters > 0xFF).

The previous code would as a side effect accept passwords encoded with
ISO 8859-1, since Unicode < 0x100 basically is ISO 8859-1.  Software which
relies on that will no longer support password chars > 0x7F unless it also
uses iocharset=iso8859-1.  (mount.cifs does not care about the encoding so
it will work as expected.)

Jeff Layton 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.

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.

Shirish Pargaonkar 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.

Jeff Layton 820a803ffa cifs: keep BCC in little-endian format
This is the same patch as originally posted, just with some merge
conflicts fixed up...

Currently, the ByteCount is usually converted to host-endian on receive.
This is confusing however, as we need to keep two sets of routines for
accessing it, and keep track of when to use each routine. Munging
received packets like this also limits when the signature can be
calulated.

Simplify the code by keeping the received ByteCount in little-endian
format. This allows us to eliminate a set of routines for accessing it
and we can now drop the *_le suffixes from the accessor functions since
that's now implied.

While we're at it, switch all of the places that read the ByteCount
directly to use the get_bcc inline which should also clean up some
unaligned accesses.

Steve French c52a95545c Don't compile in unused reparse point symlink code
Recent Windows versions now create symlinks more frequently
and they do use this "reparse point" symlink mechanism.  We can of course
do symlinks nicely to Samba and other servers which support the
CIFS Unix Extensions and we can also do SFU symlinks and "client only"
"MF" symlinks optionally, but for recent Windows we currently can not
handle the common "reparse point" symlinks fully, removing the caller
for this. We will need to extend and reenable this "reparse point" worker
code in cifs and fix cifs_symlink to call this.  In the interim this code
has been moved to its own config option so it is not compiled in by default
until cifs_symlink fixed up (and tested) to use this.

Steve French 0eff0e2677 Remove unused CIFSSMBNotify worker function
The CIFSSMBNotify worker is unused, pending changes to allow it to be called
via inotify, so move it into its own experimental config option so it does
not get built in, until the necessary VFS support is fixed.  It used to
be used in dnotify, but according to Jeff, inotify needs minor changes
before we can reenable this.
