This is a bigger patch, but its size is mostly due to
a single change for how we check for remapping illegal characters
in file names - a lot of repeated, small changes to
the way callers request converting file names.
The final patch in the series does the following:
1) changes default behavior for cifs to be more intuitive.
Currently we do not map by default to seven reserved characters,
ie those valid in POSIX but not in NTFS/CIFS/SMB3/Windows,
unless a mount option (mapchars) is specified. Change this
to by default always map and map using the SFM maping
(like the Mac uses) unless the server negotiates the CIFS Unix
Extensions (like Samba does when mounting with the cifs protocol)
when the remapping of the characters is unnecessary. This should
help SMB3 mounts in particular since Samba will likely be
able to implement this mapping with its new "vfs_fruit" module
as it will be doing for the Mac.
2) if the user specifies the existing "mapchars" mount option then
use the "SFU" (Microsoft Services for Unix, SUA) style mapping of
the seven characters instead.
3) if the user specifies "nomapposix" then disable SFM/MAC style mapping
(so no character remapping would be used unless the user specifies
"mapchars" on mount as well, as above).
4) change all the places in the code that check for the superblock
flag on the mount which is set by mapchars and passed in on all
path based operation and change it to use a small function call
instead to set the mapping type properly (and check for the
mapping type in the cifs unicode functions)

Many Linux filesystes make a file "sparse" when extending
a file with ftruncate. This does work for CIFS to Samba
(only) but not for SMB2/SMB3 (to Samba or Windows) since
there is a "set sparse" fsctl which is supposed to be
sent to mark a file as sparse.
This patch marks a file as sparse by sending this simple
set sparse fsctl if it is extended more than 2 pages.
It has been tested to Windows 8.1, Samba and various
SMB2/SMB3 servers which do support setting sparse (and
MacOS which does not appear to support the fsctl yet).
If a server share does not support setting a file
as sparse, then we do not retry setting sparse on that
share.
The disk space savings for sparse files can be quite
large (even more significant on Windows servers than Samba).

The handling of the CIFS_INO_INVALID_MAPPING flag is racy. It's possible
for two tasks to attempt to revalidate the mapping at the same time. The
first sees that CIFS_INO_INVALID_MAPPING is set. It clears the flag and
then calls invalidate_inode_pages2 to start shooting down the pagecache.
While that's going on, another task checks the flag and sees that it's
clear. It then ends up trusting the pagecache to satisfy a read when it
shouldn't.
Fix this by adding a bitlock to ensure that the clearing of the flag is
atomic with respect to the actual cache invalidation. Also, move the
other existing users of cifs_invalidate_mapping to use a new
cifs_zap_mapping() function that just sets the INVALID_MAPPING bit and

Problem reported in Red Hat bz 1040329 for strict writes where we cache
only when we hold oplock and write direct to the server when we don't.
When we receive an oplock break, we first change the oplock value for
the inode in cifsInodeInfo->oplock to indicate that we no longer hold
the oplock before we enqueue a task to flush changes to the backing
device. Once we have completed flushing the changes, we return the
oplock to the server.
There are 2 ways here where we can have data corruption
1) While we flush changes to the backing device as part of the oplock
break, we can have processes write to the file. These writes check for
the oplock, find none and attempt to write directly to the server.
These direct writes made while we are flushing from cache could be
overwritten by data being flushed from the cache causing data
corruption.
2) While a thread runs in cifs_strict_writev, the machine could receive
and process an oplock break after the thread has checked the oplock and
found that it allows us to cache and before we have made changes to the
cache. In that case, we end up with a dirty page in cache when we
shouldn't have any. This will be flushed later and will overwrite all
subsequent writes to the part of the file represented by this page.
Before making any writes to the server, we need to confirm that we are
not in the process of flushing data to the server and if we are, we
should wait until the process is complete before we attempt the write.
We should also wait for existing writes to complete before we process
an oplock break request which changes oplock values.
We add a version specific downgrade_oplock() operation to allow for
differences in the oplock values set for the different smb versions.

When mounting with smb2/smb3 (e.g. vers=2.1) and cifsacl mount option,
it was trying to get the mode by querying the acl over the cifs
rather than smb2 protocol. This patch makes that protocol
independent and makes cifsacl smb2 mounts return a more intuitive
operation not supported error (until we add a worker function
for smb2_get_acl).
Note that a previous patch fixed getxattr/setxattr for the CIFSACL xattr
which would unconditionally call cifs_get_acl and cifs_set_acl (even when
mounted smb2). I made those protocol independent last week (new protocol
version operations "get_acl" and "set_acl" but did not add an
smb2_get_acl and smb2_set_acl yet so those now simply return EOPNOTSUPP
which at least is better than sending cifs requests on smb2 mount)
The previous patches did not fix the one remaining case though ie
mounting with "cifsacl" when getting mode from acl would unconditionally
end up calling "cifs_get_acl_from_fid" even for smb2 - so made that protocol
independent but to make that protocol independent had to make sure that the callers
were passing the protocol independent handle structure (cifs_fid) instead
of cifs specific _u16 network file handle (ie cifs_fid instead of cifs_fid->fid)
Now mount with smb2 and cifsacl mount options will return EOPNOTSUP (instead
of timing out) and a future patch will add smb2 operations (e.g. get_smb2_acl)
to enable this.

The multiplex identifier (MID) in the SMB header is only
ever used by the client, in conjunction with PID, to match responses
from the server. As such, the endianess of the MID is not important.
However, When tracing packet sequences on the wire, protocol analyzers
such as wireshark display MID as little endian. It is much more informative
for the on-the-wire MID sequences to match debug information emitted by the
CIFS driver. Therefore, one should write and read MID in the SMB header
assuming it is always little endian.
Observed from wireshark during the protocol negotiation
and session setup:
Multiplex ID: 256
Multiplex ID: 256
Multiplex ID: 512
Multiplex ID: 512
Multiplex ID: 768

Currently, we try to ensure that we use vcnum of 0 on the first
established session on a connection and then try to use a different
vcnum on each session after that.
This is a little odd, since there's no real reason to use a different
vcnum for each SMB session. I can only assume there was some confusion
between SMB sessions and VCs. That's somewhat understandable since they
both get created during SESSION_SETUP, but the documentation indicates
that they are really orthogonal. The comment on max_vcs in particular
looks quite misguided. An SMB session is already uniquely identified
by the SMB UID value -- there's no need to again uniquely ID with a
VC.
Furthermore, a vcnum of 0 is a cue to the server that it should release
any resources that were previously held by the client. This sounds like
a good thing, until you consider that:
a) it totally ignores the fact that other programs on the box (e.g.
smbclient) might have connections established to the server. Using a
vcnum of 0 causes them to get kicked off.
b) it causes problems with NAT. If several clients are connected to the
same server via the same NAT'ed address, whenever one connects to the
server it kicks off all the others, which then reconnect and kick off
the first one...ad nauseum.
I don't see any reason to ignore the advice in "Implementing CIFS" which
has a comprehensive treatment of virtual circuits. In there, it states
"...and contrary to the specs the client should always use a VcNumber of
one, never zero."
Have the client just use a hardcoded vcnum of 1, and stop abusing the
special behavior of vcnum 0.
