patch -- update RHEL5 CIFS code to 1.48a
This patch updates the RHEL5 CIFS code to 1.48a. It should apply cleanly on top
of 2.6.18-17.el5. Cursory testing indicates that it works as expected. Still
working on more in-depth testing...
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. Created attachment 154279 [details] patch -- update RHEL5 CIFS code to 1.48aRH This is essentially identical to the other patch, but I folded in the patch for bug #227973, and customized the version string. Testing done so far: Connectathon test against FC6 samba (both with and without unix extensions), win2k and win2k3. All basic and general tests pass. Special tests fall down about halfway through, but they do that as well on the prior kernel. fsstress tests run against samba -- no problems Also, basic "hello" world type testing on all different hosts. Worked fine. I also need to clarify, if you mount a samba server with unix extensions enabled, all the connectathon tests pass. If you disable them or run against a windows machine, then the special tests fail early on. *** Bug 224476 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 227973 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Created attachment 156476 [details]
patch -- delta from upstream tarball
This patch is the delta on top of Steve French's backport. It's a few small
changes to make this build correctly on RHEL5, and also contains a patch that
went upstream after 1.48 came out to force an anonymous mount when sec=none is
specified on the command line.

tarball with backport of 1.48 for older kernels
This tarball contains the backport of the 1.48 code to earlier kernels that
Steve French did. The patch is based on this tarball.
Why is the 'RH'added the version? -#define CIFS_VERSION "1.47" +#define CIFS_VERSION "1.48aRH" I noticed that Steve F. had forgotten to bump the version number when he rolled this tarball so I figured we should fix that up. Also since this code isn't really the *exact* 1.48a code it would be good to distinguish it somehow. Well logically its the same... unless I miss something there are no additional bug fixes or features... but I guess its a non-issue as long as continue to stamp 'RH' for now on... (i.e. keeping it consistent) in 2.6.18-27.el5 You can download this test kernel from http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5 (In reply to comment #18) > in 2.6.18-27.el5 > You can download this test kernel from http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5 I am a bit confused. Test kernels in there DO NOT contain the patch reported in Bug 224359. Without this (224359) patch, RHEL5.x would be totally useless for those affected (kernel crash).

QE note this bz is still active due to documentation issues Confirmed the CIFS module has been updated to 1.48aRH in 2.6.18-47.el5 An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below.
