Deadstore detected by Lukas Bulwahn's CodeChecker Tool (ELISA group). line 741 struct cifsInodeInfo *cinode; line 747 cinode = CIFS_I(d_inode(cfile->dentry)); could be deleted. cinode on filesystem should not be deleted when files are closed, they are representations of some data fields on a physical disk, thus no further action is required. The virtual inode on vfs will be handled by vfs automatically, and the denotation is inode, which is different from the cinode.

Mounting with "multichannel" is obviously implied if user requested more than one channel on mount (ie mount parm max_channels>1). Currently both have to be specified. Fix that so that if max_channels is greater than 1 on mount, enable multichannel rather than silently falling back to non-multichannel.

In the SMB3/SMB3.1.1 negotiate protocol request, we are supposed to advertise CAP_MULTICHANNEL capability when establishing multiple channels has been requested by the user doing the mount. See MS-SMB2 sections 2.2.3 and 3.2.5.2 Without setting it there is some risk that multichannel could fail if the server interpreted the field strictly.

The commit 315db9a0 ("cifs: fix leak in cifs_smb3_do_mount() ctx") revealed an existing bug when mounting shares that contain a prefix path or DFS links. cifs_setup_volume_info() requires the @devname to contain the full path (UNC + prefix) to update the fs context with the new UNC and prepath values, however we were passing only the UNC path (old_ctx->UNC) in @device thus discarding any prefix paths. Instead of concatenating both old_ctx->{UNC,prepath} and pass it in @devname, just keep the dup'ed values of UNC and prepath in cifs_sb->ctx after calling smb3_fs_context_dup(), and fix smb3_parse_devname() to correctly parse and not leak the new UNC and prefix paths.

We can detect server unresponsiveness only if echoes are enabled. Echoes can be disabled under two scenarios: 1. The connection is low on credits, so we've disabled echoes/oplocks. 2. The connection has not seen any request till now (other than negotiate/sess-setup), which is when we enable these two, based on the credits available. So this fix will check for dead connection, only when echo is enabled.

Various filesystem support the shutdown ioctl which is used by various xfstests. The shutdown ioctl sets a flag on the superblock which prevents open, unlink, symlink, hardlink, rmdir, create etc. on the file system until unmount and remounted. The two flags supported in this patch are: FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_LOGFLUSH and FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_NOLOGFLUSH which require very little other than blocking new operations (since we do not cache writes to metadata on the client with cifs.ko). FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_DEFAULT is not supported yet, but could be added in the future but would need to call syncfs or equivalent to write out pending data on the mount. With this patch various xfstests now work including tests 043 through 046 for example. Signed-off-by: NSteve French <stfrench@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: NAurelien Aptel <aaptel@suse.com>

If smb3_notify() is called at mount point of CIFS, build_path_from_dentry() returns the pointer to kmalloc-ed memory with terminating zero (this is empty FileName to be passed to SMB2 CREATE request). This pointer is assigned to the `path` variable. Then `path + 1` (to skip first backslash symbol) is passed to cifs_convert_path_to_utf16(). This is incorrect for empty path and causes out-of-bound memory access. Get rid of this "increase by one". cifs_convert_path_to_utf16() already contains the check for leading backslash in the path.

build_path_from_dentry() open-codes dentry_path_raw(). The reason we can't use dentry_path_raw() in there (and postprocess the result as needed) is that the callers of build_path_from_dentry() expect that the object to be freed on cleanup and the string to be used are at the same address. That's painful, since the path is naturally built end-to-beginning - we start at the leaf and go through the ancestors, accumulating the pathname. Life would be easier if we left the buffer allocation to callers. It wouldn't be exact-sized buffer, but none of the callers keep the result for long - it's always freed before the caller returns. So there's no need to do exact-sized allocation; better use __getname()/__putname(), same as we do for pathname arguments of syscalls. What's more, there's no need to do allocation under spinlocks, so GFP_ATOMIC is not needed. Next patch will replace the open-coded dentry_path_raw() (in build_path_from_dentry_optional_prefix()) with calling the real thing. This patch only introduces wrappers for allocating/freeing the buffers and switches to new calling conventions: build_path_from_dentry(dentry, buf) expects buf to be address of a page-sized object or NULL, return value is a pathname built inside that buffer on success, ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) if buf is NULL and ERR_PTR(-ENAMETOOLONG) if the pathname won't fit into page. Note that we don't need to check for failure when allocating the buffer in the caller - build_path_from_dentry() will do the right thing.
